Today, being the winter solstice, is the official first day of winter. That’s right folks — we’re just getting started! Luckily we have a few quick and easy ways to warm up and get comfortable during the longest night of the year and the long winter ahead.
1. Curl Up
This 100 percent cotton throw from Chicago Luxury Beds is the perfect thing to watch your favorite winter movie under.
2. Layer
The Sarah Pacini Cardigan from Vibrato Boutique has three different types of wool in this one-of-a-kind knit, perfect for keeping the cold away.
3. Accessorize
As you run last minute holiday errands, throw on this super soft modal cotton scarf from Exhibit to look good and stay warm at the same time.
4. Set the Mood
Light a few candles around the house for a warm and inviting atmosphere. Both Twisted Trunk and Maze Home have some great options.
5. Get Cozy
Whether you are enjoying a glass of wine by the fire or playing board games with the family, keep your feet snug around the house with these plush down booties.
6. Drink Up
Indulge in a big batch of hot cocoa with friends and family. Make a night of it with a hot cocoa bar with fixings like candy canes, marshmallows and flavored syrups!
7. Soak
Take a minute for yourself (we all need a break at some point) with a hot bath and use one of these amazing soaks and other products in this Bath & Body Kit by Fig + Yarrow from BlackSheep General Store.
