Our Winter Favorites ❄️

Winter in Bozeman looks a little different on everyone and honestly, that’s what makes it cute. Some of us are chasing après ski drinks and hot dogs, some are deep in a book club spiral, and some are just trying to survive winter with a really good latte and a killer playlist on repeat.

This season, we asked a few of our Intrigue Ink babes to spill their current favorites... From what’s on their nightstands to what they’re sipping, styling, and listening to when they’re not holding it down on the sales floor. Think of this as a cozy little peek into their worlds: warm winter fits, local hangouts, rituals we swear by, and songs we absolutely refuse to skip.

Grab a drink, settle in, and meet the babes behind the vibes ✨


✨ If You’re Like Stella, You’re Probably…

…planning your ski day and your après outfit at the same time and refusing to believe winter has to be boring.

You’re currently reading One True Loves by Taylor Jenkins Reid, leaning fully into heartbreak, romance, and feelings (the good kind). Your outfit vibe? Warm-winter boho cowgirl. Think the Boot Scootin’ Tank from Intrigue Ink styled with a crochet poncho, mini skirt, cowgirl boots, and all the jewelry and fun accessories. Equal parts western and whimsical, zero notes.

Your drink order shifts with the time of day: a blueberry matcha from Lucky Penny when the sun’s up, and an espresso martini from Stockman’s Bar once it’s down. A perfect winter day ends the only way it should, ski Bridger Bowl all day, then reward yourself with a hot dog from Ridge Dogs. Non-negotiable.

When you’re not at work, you’re either at Peets Hill, grabbing a bev at Rockford Coffee, or posted up at Stockman’s. Your music vibe? Pure “Mullet Rock” energy. A Gift to the World by Loveless, plus the iconic Dean Winchester’s Impala for maximum main-character energy.


✨ If You’re Like Sable, You’re Probably…

…outfit repeating on purpose, skiing hard, and absolutely thriving in organized chaos.

You’ve got Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy tucked in your bag. It's moody, atmospheric, and perfectly matched to winter energy. Your uniform of choice? The Girls Rule Boys Drool Baby Tee from Intrigue Ink paired with JBD Barrel Jeans, Nike Cortez, a headband, and lots of rings. Effortless, cool, and very much intentional.

Your go-to drink is an iced matcha with white mocha and peppermint from Wild Joe’s Coffee Spot, followed later by a Doc Holliday at Stockman’s... usually with Stella. A proper winter ritual looks like this: ski day → après drink → hot tub session. The holy trinity.

Off the clock, you’re bouncing between Wild Joe’s, The Lighthouse, Peets Hill, and on a really good day Shine Beer Sanctuary. Your soundtrack is unapologetically loud: full Coyote Ugly energy, Carolina by Harry Styles, and yes... the Pitch Perfect Soundtrack on repeat. No shame. Ever.


✨ If You’re Like Ava, You’re Probably…

…balancing cozy, academic, and nostalgic all at once and somehow making it work.

Reading right now? Textbooks only. Academic queen behavior. Your winter fits rotate between the Ivy Bison Skull Hoodie from Intrigue Ink with jeans and Sambas, or on warmer days, the Butter Sardine Sweater styled with a denim skirt.

Your drink order never changes: an iced white mocha, anywhere and everywhere. It’s the drink of winter. One ritual you’ll never skip? Watching Christmas episodes of old Disney Channel shows. Yes, even in February.

When you’re not at work, you’re shopping downtown, catching a movie, or driving around soaking in Montana views. Your soundtrack this season is heavy on Folklore and Evermore by Taylor Swift and when you need a mood shift, you reach for Billy Joel.


✨ If You’re Like Kadison, You’re Probably…

…curating the coziest possible environment and thrifting like it’s a competitive sport.

You’re not a big reader but your all-time favorite is The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, which honestly explains a lot. Your outfit vibe is simple and weather-dependent: white tee, jeans, cute socks, Mary Janes. The Intrigue Ink version? The Cowboy Chicken Tee with JBD Baggy Wide Leg in Medium Denim.

Your coffee order is an iced hazelnut latte from anywhere but it’s always a little extra special when it comes from Lucky Penny. Winter survival looks like a humidifier on every night, tealight mood lighting, and absolutely no overhead lighting after sunset.

If you’re not at work, you’re either at home or hopping between every thrift store in town. Music-wise, it’s Sabrina Carpenter on repeat. Always. No skips allowed.


✨ If You’re Like Gunner, You’re Probably…

…romanticizing winter just enough to survive it and pretending that’s not what’s happening.

You’re currently reading Open, Heaven by Sean Hewitt, a beautifully written coming-of-age story and your current book club pick. Your go-to fit is any Intrigue Ink hoodie layered under the Everyday Light Wash Denim Jacket, paired with JBD Barrel Jeans and white Nike AF1s. Canadian tuxedo energy.

Your coffee obsession right now is the Toffee Nut Crunch Latte from 406 Espresso just down Huffine. Worth the drive, worth the gas, worth rearranging your day. Cocktail-wise, you’re fully in your spicy marg era, especially at Copper Whiskey Bar and Hachi Sushi Pub.

Your seasonal ritual is running a mile when you’re stressed to get out of your head, followed by unwinding with a glass of wine probably from City Vineyard and a book (because balance). When you’re not at work, you’re with the homies, thrifting, crafting, or deep in a collage spiral making plushie taxidermy wall art that feels slightly unhinged but in a fun way.

Your music rotation right now includes:

  • INTERNET GIRL by KATSEYE

  • BUTTERSCOTCH by Kesha

  • STATESIDE by PinkPantheress feat. Zara Larsson

 

Winter favorites are fleeting but the vibes are forever.

Come shop the looks, swap book recs, talk playlists, and find your current obsession at Intrigue Ink. We’ll be here all season, probably over-caffeinated, slightly under-dressed for the weather, and very ready to hear what you’re loving right now.

So… which babe are you most like? Or spill your winter faves in Bozeman in the comments... We’re taking notes!
