Winter is just around the corner and we can’t wait to snuggle up in layers of fun winter clothing to ease out the cold temperatures.
The trick to staying warm this winter is to wear multiple thin layers so that your clothing acts as an insulator. Don’t worry too much about being fashion forward with your choice of thin layers – your outerwear will stand out more! UNICEF has a huge assortment of outerwear clothing perfect for the outdoors. Not sure on what to choose from? We’ve got you covered (literally). Read on for the winter basics you need to protect yourself once the temperature drops.
Scarves
The perfect neck accessory for the winter season. Scarves can complement your style and personality, and you can have fun with color, texture, and pattern. There are also different ways to wear a scarf – from a simple loop, to a buckaroo knot, or a casual swing – you’re sure to have a lot of fun with all the different ways possible. And if you’re into super easy wear, you might want to invest in an infinity scarves! These scarves stretch over your head with ease and can be wrapped around your neck up to three times, similar to a muffler!
Mittens
Mittens are our ultimate favorite when it comes to staying warm by the fireplace with a warm cup of hot chocolate. They’re also an the choice for skiers, snowboarders, and other outdoor enthusiasts. Mittens are warmer than gloves since they trap body heat by keeping your fingers together. They’re truly the best choice for hand warmth, which makes them perfect for children as well. Just make sure they fit!
Hats
Not only do hats protect your head and ears from the cold, they make a great standout accessory those days or nights you decide to step out. A beanie hat is an easy way to go this winter season, with details like pom poms, fringe, and cable knits to tailor your own personal and unique style.
Sweaters
Wearing a comfy sweater is like getting a good, warm hug (all the time). If you’re wondering on what kind of sweater to purchase, we highly recommend a sweater made out of alpaca wool. Not only is it soft on the skin and stronger than most fibers, it’s also water-resistant!
UNICEF advocates for the protection of children’s rights – helping them meet their basic needs and to expand their opportunities to reach their full potential. With every UNICEF purchase, you are saving a child’s life.
