6 Practical but Stylish Accessories for the Colder Weather
We're knocking on November's door, and depending on where you are in the world, that means freezing temperatures are imminent.
Unfortunately, we live in a part of the United States where it will be cold. Instead of looking for fashion that is stylish, we prioritize functionality. However, this year, we're taking a different approach—we're purchasing accessories that are trendy and practical.
Below, find some of our favorite finds, so you can look and feel good during the cooler seasons.
Aritzia Sunday Best Scrunch Crew Socks: $12
Sure, boots are probably the best shoes to wear when it's below zero, and you don't always have to wear chunky socks with them, but when you're looking to wear a different shoe, thick socks are a must. We love these ones from Aritzia because, on top of being great for cooler temperatures, the slouchy fit adds complexity to your outfit.

Cider Bear Ear Knitted Balaclava Cap: $16
This winter, we're predicting balaclavas will be everywhere. They're a lot warmer because they cover your entire head (excluding your face) and tend to be looser than a hat. Plus, you can make them even cuter, like how this Cider one has bear ears.

Hot Topic Pastel Pink Plush Star Earmuffs: $16.90
If you prefer hats over balaclavas, adding earmuffs can make you feel more covered and warm. But why stop at a plain pair? Go the extra mile with one that has a cute design. These earmuffs from Hot Topic are in an adorable pink shade, and the star shape makes them look so unique.

Urban Outfitters Classic Fingerless Glove: $19
Do your hands get too warm in gloves? You might fare better in a pair of fingerless ones. Instead, the palms of your hands and lower parts of your fingers will obtain the heat. Plus, having your tips exposed means no more taking them off to scroll through your phone.

Old Navy High-Waisted Fleece-Lined Leggings: $22.99
We practically live in leggings, but it's not always smart to wear them during the winter, leaving out legs shivering by the end of the night. But we can still enjoy them during winter with fleece-lined ones—and they're available for a great price at Old Navy.

Free People Amour Knit Arm Warmers: $38
Leg and arm warmers might be our most loved trend of 2023. We already said we appreciate slouchy socks, and it's the exact same for arm warmers. Free People has a perfect pair in a selection of neutral colors to fit every outfit. You can wear these slouchy, too, or stretch them out for maximum warmth.
