Top 5 Cold Weather Accessories for Ship

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

 

Winter has brought ugly weather and frumpy outfit decisions to Ship, but the thought of shopping is what keeps us going.  The negative temperatures and corrosive road salts may have dissolved the tread on our favorite boots, but we will not let that drive us into depression.  To lift your spirits, here are the top five accessories that will keep you warm at Ship.

 

1.    Neck Gator

Gators are not just for your legs anymore.  A neck gator keeps your vocals ready for shouting at your friends from across campus, yet is simple enough to remain completely in sync with your outfit.  Your friends will thank you for saving your voice.

 

2.    Texting Gloves

This invention is the most innovative thing since cars had heaters.  With these gloves, you can keep your fingers nice and toasty while still whipping out 130 characters in under a minute.  It is pure genius.

 

3.    Ski Socks

Keep your toes in a climate controlled environment with a thick pair of ski socks.  These socks look so cute peeking out the top of your favorite leather boots, you will forget it is below zero outside. 

 

4.    Knit Scarves

Neck gators are clever, but knit scarves are adorable.  Buy a few in different colors to match your outfits perfectly, or knit your own.  Who knows, maybe knitting is your next big thing.

 

5.    Slouchy Beanie

Everyone will think you look so artistic and deep in your hipster slouchy hat.  You are keeping your ears warm while simultaneously making a statement.  Just because it is cold, does not mean your style has to suffer.

 

The cold weather does not look to be leaving Ship any time soon, so make an effort to work with it instead of against it.  Avoid hypothermia by remaining stylish.  You are worth it.
