5 Accessories for Snowy Weather

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wash U chapter.

When the temperature dips, there is nothing better than piling on layers of wintry gear while sipping from a steamy cup of hot chocolate. Here are some clothing tips for staying toasty this winter:

1) Boots.

An obvious choice for trudging through slush and snow, these will ensure that you stay warm while still looking cute. Choose fur-lined for extra coziness or go for leather to make a bold fashion statement.

2)  Texting gloves.

There is nothing worse than having to take your fingers out of the warm cocoon of a glove on a cold day in order to send a text. Fortunately, you can buy gloves that have touch-screen compatible material on the thumbs that will allow you to Snapchat and Instagram a snowy day without sacrificing warmth.

3)  Mittens.

When the weather is truly frightful, nothing beats pulling on a pair of cozy mittens. Whether fleecy, wooly, or fuzzy, mittens come in all sorts of cute patterns and will keep your hands exceptionally warm.

4)  Ear warmers.

A great accessory for those bone-chilling, below-freezing days. Choose geeky-cute earmuffs or a sparkly earband to stay cozy.

5)   Holiday novelty socks.

The most festive time of the year is finally here, so celebrate by wearing fun holiday socks under your layers! They’ll  keep you smiling despite the cold.
