It's a snow day


Hi Fashionistas,


On Sunday, we decided to take a spontaneous trip to Lake Arrowhead since I was in desperate need of a scenery change. Since it had rained so much, the mountains were covered in snow. That sounds like fun! While I emphasize my dislike of snow, I don't mind spending a few hours in a winter wonderland. Lake Arrowhead is about a 1 ½ hour drive from Los Angeles, so perfect for a day trip. 

We got stuck in traffic for a bit because the road leading up to Lake Arrowhead is a one-lane. Mid-way, the temperature started to drop, and snow began to become visible. I had low expectations because one day it snows, the next day it's gone, but I was lucky; there was so much snow. 

At the mountain top, trees and houses were covered in snow. Cars completely disappeared. 

We were looking for a less crowded spot to enjoy the scenery. It was quite challenging to find parking on a Sunday afternoon, especially when everyone had the same idea to visit Lake Arrowhead. After a while, we found parking. 

We started hiking, and I began to hear the soothing sound of snow. There is nothing more relaxing than the sound of snow when you start walking. But we quickly realized we were knee-deep in snow. 

Lake Arrowhead is stunning year-round, but my favorite seasons up here are and winter. During winter, pine trees are partially covered in snow, offering the perfect backdrop for a photoshoot. The main roads were clear, yet it was advised to take snow chains with you. 

Overall, this was a fun day trip, but I am glad to back in a snow-free area. That's the reason I love living here. Snowy mountains, sandy deserts, and the ocean are all close by and always standby to provide fun during a day trip.
