Today’s post starts with a funny story – at a recent company meeting one of my coworkers came up and introduced herself, after a simple exchange of names she asked me if I was from the South. I said no, I grew up in the suburbs of New York City and have never lived South of D.C., furthermore no one has ever thought I am from the South. I asked my bubbly coworker why she had asked. Well, apparently one day she saw me scroll through my Pandora picking a different song on my country station (which I am sure included a few of these songs) and I was wearing my favorite gold monogram necklace, so she assumed I was fun the South – too funny! While I have become a fan of country music and love a good monogram, I am not quite a country girl.
A few days later I mentioned that I had a blog and I sent her a few posts, including the one about my necklace and this one about monograms. From that post she loved the leather gloves and launched into a story about how in this never ending winter hers are not well lined enough, trust me, I feel the pain! With that in mind I went on a search for well insulated monogrammed leather gloves:

Women’s Italian Leather Classic Gloves, Jewel-Toned $120

Monogram Women’s Leather Gloves $48
Women’s Italian Leather Opera Gloves in Bright-Tones $199
And of all of the monogrammed leather gloves I found, and granted, there were far less than I thought there would be, these Mark and Graham gloves are my favorite:

Women’s Classic Leather Gloves, Bright-Toned $120
The idea of monogrammed gloves is just so effortless and glassy. I hesitated on publishing this post because I could not find any gloves that exactly fit my co-workers ask, chic monogrammed gloves that are very warm but not bulky. However, the gloves above are super cute and worthy of a post . To be honest even I have not found a pair of chic gloves that work for 5 degree weather that feels like negative ten degrees with the wind chill, I have been wearing these Men’s Smartouch Nylon Gloves. But back to monogrammed leather gloves, I absolutely love these long gloves from the 1930’s that are currently in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

And while these are no where near gloves I came across these Monogrammed Full Zip Fleece Jackets in my research and they were too cute not to share! (You can find them all here)

Yay for monograms!

I love the longer gloves. I hate having gloves that only go to the edge of my wrist so when I reach my arms out to scrape the windows of the car my skin is exposed in the cold air. The gloves from the museum are super cute!

I’ve never considered getting monogrammed gloves, but I do love that opera length option.

Ha ha ha funny story. I’m from the south and although I am familiar with country music, artists, songs and music, I do not listen to country at all and monograms are not thought of as southern here and no one here wears monogram necklaces that I can think of offhand. I’ve never owned a pair of cowboy boots either. The only real difference is the food and the accents. Well, maybe we do tend to use the word Y’all a bit often. Shortcuts are good and if you can shorten two words or more into a single word, well then it’s a timesaver. Now that is a southern “thang” all our little phrases and shortcut words. Ha ha.
