well this is an incredibly specific series of questions, but i have some answers. for clothing, the practical answer would be just like a good, chunky sweater/jeans and a down jacket to mid-thigh at the least because it's just that fucking cold, but a classy wool coat could always be an option in the fictional world - down to creative choice, really! i had absolutely nothing specific in mind beyond "would i wear this in the dead of the chicago winter" lol. as for the freezer aisle: fridge-style ones
