5 Winter Season Must Haves

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

Winter is fast approaching and with it comes the biting Michigan cold. This change in weather not only forces us to take out our not so hot winter wardrobe and causes dry skin and chapped lips and hands. Here’s a couple ways to stay warm and stay well maintained this winter!

#1 Zara Oversize, Double-Sided Scarf

This scarf features one plaid side and one houndstooth side, and it is the size of a small blanket. It doubles as a shawl and is super soft. It’s the perfect way to stay warm on the long walks to class and to keep warm in the constantly cold MLB.
