Hey guys. This blog post is all about winter essentials that will help you survive the freeze season. It’s January and at this time of the year it can get pretty cold. Here are some winter items that will be your best friend throughout winter.
Chapstick
Chapstick is huge for winter. At this time, my lips get very and cracked so I make sure I have a chapstick with me handy just in case I need it. I have lots of chapsticks but I have three favorites. The first one is Blistex. It helps soothe dry lips and makes your lips feel soft and moisturized. The next one is perfectlyposh lip balm. This balm has a great mint scent but also makes your lips very soft. The last one is Celestial peppermint chapstick. I actually got this from a tea package but it is my go to when I have chapped lips. It medicates my lips and leave them healing. Lotion is also important for this dry season.
Boots
Boots are a fashion staple for winter. You can style them 
with almost anything; dresses, jeans, leggings, etc. Not only that, but they keep you warm. My favorite boots are Uggs or combat boots. Uggs are a great boot for when you have to walk through a day that’s cold but isn’t snowing heaps. They have fur inside that keeps your feet really warm and are nice to style outfits with. I got mine from a shop in Australia. I also love combat boots because they have lots of styles; short, long, patterned, etc. I prefer short ones with jeans or leggings and they are waterproof so are perfect for snowy days. Just keep them away from the ice. 😉
Flannels
Flannels/ Plaids are also a staple for winter. There is many styling alternatives to flannels. You can keep it buttoned up for a comfy day or leave it open with a t-shirt 
or a tank. Even in summer, you can throw a crop top on with a flannel for the rainy days. One of my favorite times I like to wear flannels are when there is lots of snow on the ground and you want to stay inside all day. Sadly, there is times I have to leave the house for things on days like these. I just throw on a flannel and get through the day. The flannel on the right is from Aeropostale and is a great flannel for throwing on over a shirt. The flannel on the left is from abercrombie kids. It’s super comfy and a great button down.
Beanies/ Hats
Beanies are a great winter essential because they look great on with a coat and they keep you ears warm in the harsh winter. There are many designs and can go with almost any outfits. The beanie in the back is from kohls and is more of a bigger beanie but is really warm. The one up front is from Aeropostale and is a nice design with lots of warmth for my ears.
This was my first half of Winter Essentials. I will be doing four more essentials at another time in this month. I hope you enjoyed this blog post and if you did, leave a like and comment down below some of your essentials for winter.
