Baby it's cold outside

Since today felt like winter I was inspired to write about fashionable accessories to keep you warm.  This season it's all about the chunky knits.  I love how the thick texture of these pieces are the perfect thing to snuggle up with.  Practical & stylish!

This knit ring scarf is so versatile.  You can wear it over your little black leather jacket, wool coat, or just over your shirt as part of your ensemble.  It's not so tight as a turtleneck (they make me feel claustrophobic) and not as breezy as a regular scarf.  Very modern.  You can find this one which comes in taupe (pictured) and vanilla.  It's on Need Supply Co. (one of my favorite clothing sites).  It's only $38.

Let's face it - you lose most of your body's heat through your head.  A hat is a necessity.  Don't let your fear of hat head stop you from wearing a cute beanie.  This one is by Free People and is $28.  It comes in 3 colors (Scarlet, Ivory, Grey) and it listed on Shopbop.

Ok, so these aren't the most practical as far as keeping your finger warm.  BUT, they make it quite easy to use your touchscreen phones.  They are just so cute that I don't mind a little frostbite.  They are from Club Monaco and go for $59.  They come in the bone color as shown and also in grey.  They are also available on shopbop's website in only the bone color.
