Hi folks,
I will soon be moving to a place with a real winter...eastern Canada. I have realized that I simply have no idea how to dress warmly but still dress well in such a place. I've had the luxury of being completely ignorant to warm dress clothes -- the sole exception being a knee length gray wool coat that I've worn over my suits when I travel to Boston or NY in the winter time.
My usual business attire consists of suits and/or sport coats. Do I simply add a coat over the top for the drive in to the office? What's the difference between a car coat and a top coat? Do people in snowy climates wear different dress shoes? Or maybe dress boots? Or those rubber shoe covers that my grandpa used to wear? I assume I'm going to have to get used to scarves and gloves, too. Help -- I'm scared!
