I just bought one in coral and I love it. I've got my eye on yellow and green next. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cold-at-work#post-3985 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 01:38:11 +0000 lisahead 3985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You ladies are great! I have always thought about a pashima- and in the winter I did wear gloves- I am so happy I checked the site- didn't think there'd be replies- I love this blog-<br /> Thanks again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cold-at-work#post-3688 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 18:10:52 +0000 christie 3688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am also always cold. </p> <p>I would take Maya's first suggestion to heart. Not to sound like a preachy environmentalist, but air conditioning is one of the greatest emitters of carbon dioxide. Raising the temperature a bit will save your skin and the environment!</p> <p>I, like Maya, always have a pashmina scarf. You can wear it as a scarf or use it as a light shawl. You wouldn't believe how much warmer you will feel with a light scarf around your neck or shoulders. </p> <p>Layers are the most important. I always have a cardigan with me in the summers, and in the winters a cami or long sleeve undershirt can really warm you up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cold-at-work#post-3667 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 05:46:12 +0000 Maya 3667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know all about cold workplaces. It used to be so cold at my old job that I used to wear fingerless gloves at my desk because it was too cold for me to type! I know it sounds a bit ridiculous but it did help. Depending how formal your office is that might work (if you work in an office)--or at least get enough attention for people to reconsider adjusting the temperature.</p> <p>I also kept a cardigan or light blazer with me at all times. If I wanted to wear a skirt, I would just pop some nylons or tights underneath. Also this is a great excuse to get a bunch of scarves. I'd keep a pashina around my neck during winter and a lighter spring scarf when it got warmer (outside at least). This may also depend on your workplace dress code though. If you're not too busty, try wearing a higher neckline too. And always dress in layers so that when you go outside and it's hot (assuming you don't work outside), you can peel back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cold-at-work#post-3651 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 01:56:09 +0000 Angie 3651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you typically wear that you're not warm enough? Do you work indoors? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cold-at-work#post-3648 Sun, 20 Apr 2008 01:43:06 +0000 lisahead 3648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi - I live in Columbus OH.
