Does anything really happen in the last two weeks of the year? If it did, would you care? Welcome to Brain Dead Fortnight, two weeks of mental vacation.

It seems like every time you look there’s a celebrity going bare-legged in below-freezing weather or thinking that fur-lined sandals are appropriate December footwear — making it easy to assume that they don’t really go outside after the temperature drops below 50. Yet, thanks to the very diligent work of some pretty sharp-eyed paparazzi, there’s actually evidence to the contrary. It turns out that celebrities do, on occasion, venture out in the biting winter wind. Some of them even appear to own down coats! Click through the slideshow for a look at the toughest among them, braving the cruel, cruel outdoors.
