The winter season is in full swing, and with record-breaking low temperatures across the country and the bomb cyclone sweeping the East Coast, now is the time to make sure you’re ready to dress for the cold. See below for some of our favorite winter-weather accessories to help you stay warm and cozy this season.
Earmuffs
As you head out into the cold weather, it’s easy to forget about your ears. Most people will slap on a hat, but what if you don’t want to deal with hat hair for the rest of the day? For exactly that reason, earmuffs were created. Not only do they keep your ears warm, but they also add some flair to your look.
Shawls & Scarves
Shawls, wraps, scarves—whatever you choose to call them, the bigger the better in our opinion. They are one of the most versatile pieces you can own in your wardrobe as they function not only as an outwear or layering piece, but are perfect for your colder than average office, taking to the movies or wearing out to dinner.
Hats & Beanies
Whether you’re late for work and need a quick hair fix, or heading out for a jog or errands, these adult-appropriate beanies make excellent choices that will keep you warm and maximize your comfort without making you look like you’re back in college.
Mittens & Gloves
No matter if you live in a snow-ridden town or in a city with relentless rain, your fingers are often the first body part to get cold when temperatures drop. We’ve round up seven of the best mittens and gloves to keep your digits nice and toasty whether you’re in a snowball fight, hitting the slopes or commuting to work.
Socks
Imagine your favorite cozy sweater, but instead of clothing your upper body, you’re sliding your feet into them. Keep your feet warm and toast this season with our favorite picks below.
