Itching to Ice Skate

As the Christmas season and winter start to creep around one of the first things that I start longing to do is go ice skating. Sadly I haven't gone several winters in a row but this year I'm bound and determined to go as often as possible.

I love everything about ice skating, including the fashion. Snuggly scarves and sweaters, and twirly skirts. I thought it would be fun to share some vintage ice skating images.
