Not for me

They may be warmer but I can't stand one piece anything. I'll stick to the separate pieces like I have already. I stayed warm enough, thank you.

The disco gal was quite a sight, though. Can you imagine being on a date with her? Wild child!

Add a helmet to that last one and you might get mistaken for a storm trooper! LMAO!

and I totally think that skiing or boarding is snow that deep isn't for me. But I'm not one for going off piste... the avalanche risk has me shaking in my boots!

Ummm... there isn't any "off piste" in US resorts per se. If you're off a groomed run in a U.S. resort and it's not roped or marked "Closed" it has been controlled for avalanches.

Totally different story in Europe.

I was talking about Europe, the few times I have been there, I didn't go out. I don't do backcountry in the US either. Just not my thing. I prefer a groomed slope, preferrably with a half pipe somewhere!

Lol, the storm trooper look could be pretty cool. Especially if you got some friends to get them as well. That could be fun to take over a hill with

As for me I'll stick to my two piece. I have a one piece suit for shoveling the driveway and that drives me nuts. At least Union suits had a flap for using the bathroom.

Okay, so I poked fun at the ski suits before, but then I went searching to answer chipper's question about finding a full ski suits for women online. No, I haven't found any amazing ones online, but I stumbled across justgear.com's toddler section. I realized that ski suits are so much more adorable on little ones...just like those sleepers/footie pajamas we were talking about. Really, they look the same on the screen, but seeing the words "toddler" and "preschool" put them in a completely different light when picturing them on a little kid, hehe.

Yeah, they do look cute on little kids. Can you imagine buying a suit for your teenager though? they would be mortified! It'd be hilarious.

Though I did buy bib overall pants for my kids for next year because I like to get more mileage out of the coat.
