Winter is coming, which means it’s time to curl up with as many soft, cozy products as you can find. If you’re in a cold climate, winter will be here for the next six months, so you better find a way to stay warm. You don’t want to miss out on all the good things about winter, like holiday lights, ice skating, and sledding. Here are some of the best products to keep the cold away.

Fuzzy Throw Blanket

You can’t get through winter without a soft blanket to curl up with on the couch or in bed. In fact, you probably need multiple blankets. Target has a lot of good choices, like the Fuzzy Throw Blanket by Threshold.

Fuzzy Leggings

It’s hard to keep your legs warm during the winter. You can pile on sweaters, but you can’t layer pants. When your leggings aren’t keeping you warm and you can’t wear sweatpants, you’ll want a pair of fuzzy leggings. They give you the extra warmth you need, plus most of them aren’t any bulkier looking. Uniqlo’s HeatTech Pile-Lined Leggings is a great affordable option.

Sweater Mug

If you’re looking to take the meaning of cozy to a whole new level, get a mug with a sweater. This will complete your winter aesthetic as you sip your warm tea, coffee, or hot chocolate. Target has a Stoneware Sweater Mug by Opalhouse for only five dollars.

Wool Socks

Wool socks aren’t just good for skiing. You’ll be glad you have them when you’re outside at a tree lighting, waiting in line for a bar on New Year’s, or taking a walk in the snow. Check out this set of five wool socks from Amazon.

Heating Pad

Heating pads are perfect for sore muscles or period cramps, but they’re also great if you simply want to stay warm. Just be careful not to fall asleep on it so you don’t get burned. You can usually find heating pads at a pharmacy, like this Sunbeam Heating Pad from Walgreens.

Personal Heater

Personal heaters are a lifesaver in the winter. They’re great to put in your bathroom so you don’t freeze when you get out of the shower. It’s also nice to put one under your desk at work if you have a cold office. If you’re always cold during the winter, you’ll definitely want to buy one, like this Ceramic Personal Heater from Honeywell.

Get cozy, and stay warm this winter!
