10 Winter Basics Everyone Needs In Their Wardrobe

It is officially winter, which means it is getting cold… here are 10 winter basics you will need in your wardrobe to keep yourself warm this winter! From winter jackets to gloves to ear warmers… all of these winter basics will make your winter better! Read on to find out more!

10 WINTER BASICS YOU NEED TO KNOW!

1. Long Winter Jacket

To keep yourself warm this winter, don’t forget to wear thick and long layers! A winter jacket that falls until your knees can do the trick! Long jackets are great because they are made to be available to everyone! They are warm, cozy and of course, stylish. They also come in various colours and styles. This winter basic is a must!  

2. Hat

When talking about winter basics, one must never forget a hat! A hat for winter is a must! This is especially true for snowy and windy days. There are several styles of hats you can go for – beanies, berets, ear flaps, and etc.! Find the one that suits you best and go for it! Don’t be afraid to try out new styles to see what suits you best! Most importantly, make sure it keeps your head warm. You may also buy hats in different colours and pair them up with your outfits according to the colour coordination. Go for what works for you! 

3. Scarf

To protect yourself from the freezing cold, a scarf is also a must for winter. You may style your scarf in various ways depending on your outfit! There are many different types of scarfs; they range from blanket to cotton to silk! Find the one that keeps you warm and that you like the most! What is cool about scarves is that you can also style them in different ways! You may wrap your scarf in a way to create a square blanket, a bow, a loop, and etc.! Feel free to try out different styles to see what you like the most! Because there are many styles you can go for, you are free to style your scarf differently every day. Do what works for you! 

4. Gloves

My hands get sooo cold during winter. To avoid freezing my hands off, gloves are a must in your wardrobe! This winter basic is great. They really keep your hands warm. I recommend getting touchscreen gloves! With touchscreen ones, you can use your phone even with the gloves on. This is a win-win situation! Gloves also come in different styles, prints, and colours! Just like with hats and scarves, you may also pair up your gloves with the specific outfit you plan to wear for the day.

5. Ear warmer

There have been times where I could barely feel my ears because it was too cold! An ear warmer, therefore, is a great way to protect your ears, especially for when you are outside! Plus, it is a stylish item/head accessory! An alternative would be to use headphones, which can cover your ears while you are listening to music. Again, both of them are a win-win situation, hehe. Do what feels right for you!

6. Winter Boots

Winter boots are a must for winter! When it snows, the ground can get extremely slippery and muddy. So, I highly recommend wearing waterproof winter boots with steady grips. You can also go for knee boots, as they can keep your feet as well as your knees warm during the winter season. Winter boots are also good because they can protect your feet from the cold. This winter basic is important for the winter season! 

7. Cozy Socks

Socks. Are. So. Important. For. Winter! My feet can get so cold during winter. This is especially true when I am outside. Sometimes, the snow on the ground might accidentally get inside my winter boots… I highly recommend long and fuzzy socks for winter. Plus, there are so many different and fun styles of socks… so, I’m definitely not complaining! You can also wear two layers of socks to keep yourself warm if you would like to! There are also socks that function as shoes. If you’re into cozy and comfy shoe sneakers, by all means, go for them!

8. Insulated pants

Insulated pants are truly a must during winter! They can keep you warm during winter, and they are super comfy! You can also wear another layer of pants if you would like to bundle up! Do what suits you best to keep yourself warm this winter. Insulated pants are different from average pants because they are often windproof. They also have insulation, which keeps you really warm during winter. This winter basic is a must-have!

9. Turtlenecks

Turtlenecks are SO great for winter. Not only are they comfy, but they are also super warm! This winter basic is a must! You can also wear them in various ways – under a shirt, with a winter jacket, and etc.! Also, they are also super on-trend! You can choose from a wide range of colours, patterns, and prints just like with your scarves, hats, and gloves! Because there is a large variety of styles to choose from, you can also pair them up with different outfits. So, what are you waiting for?

10. Smile

Finally, the last winter basic you must wear (even though it doesn’t come from your wardrobe) during winter (and all the other seasons as well) is a smile! Winter is cold, and all of us just want to stay indoors watching movies and TV shows when we can…  In order to endure this freezing cold season, let’s learn to appreciate and enjoy the beauty this season has to offer us (which includes the following picture). Never ever forget this winter basic! This one is really important!
