im from southern california and am now at wellesley so i totally understand.

layering is import…bring all your tank tops and short sleeve shirts and just pile them on in the beginning of the year when its “cold” (ie. under 70 lol)
after a few weeks youll start getting used to the weather and then youll start wearing 2 shirts instead of 3…

before it starts snowing, please please please buy a good warm coat.
and buy it when you get to massachusetts because the coats here are definitely warmer than the ones in california. some coats have an inner jacket and an outer jacket which ive found to work really well because the outer one becomes a rain coat which is nice. rubber boots for rain are also nice. and snow boots too!!

a lot of people have north face fleeces for colder weather when its now snowing. umm…by the end of year, 60 will feel really warm. last weekend it went to 80 and i had no idea what to do with myself…it was too warm!
