Now the nights are drawing in and the temperature is dropping, it can’t have escaped your notice that winter is fast approaching. Soon you’ll be stepping out for work to be greeted by crisp, cold foggy mornings, and you’ll need the dreaded ice scraper for your car’s windscreen. But if you’re properly prepared, winter doesn’t have to be a drudge. Make sure you’ve got these five winter essentials in your life and you should breeze through the colder months…
The Perfect Cardigan
Cardigans have seen a huge rise in popularity over the past few years, and we love the fact that they’re a must-have in the world of menswear. Thin ones are great for layering under your work suit, while chunky knits are just the thing for weekend walks. Try a shawl collar for a cosy ‘grandad’ style look.
Touch Screen Gloves
Keep up with emails, social media, and work without freezing your mitts off – a pair of touch screen gloves is definitely a winter essential. You can even use them at the cash point. Cold fingers shall be no more!
A Winter Suit
There’s no use setting off to work in a suit that’s thin, worn, and seen better days when the wind is thrashing around and the rain is lashing down. Winter deserves respect – opt for a suit in a thicker material that will keep you toasty on your way to work and home again. Try men’s suits from Dobell for great quality at wallet-friendly prices. And remember – although you may be tempted to opt for a super-snug fit to keep yourself looking slick, it’s always wise to make sure if it really does turn bitterly cold, you’ve got enough room under your jacket to factor in a jumper or cardigan
Decent Socks
Winter will nip at your ankles and give you a chill without thinking twice about it, so make sure you’re prepared. A decent pair of thick (ideally woolen) socks will keep the harsh temperatures at bay. Opt for a snazzy print to add interest to your everyday wardrobe, or keep your look traditional with a marled finish.
A Tweed Waistcoat
Quintessentially British and warmer than your average waistcoat, a tweed waistcoat is a must for the colder months. They look great on their own when paired with a slick shirt and tie, or keep the look classic by matching with a formal suit. Weddings, parties, work – you’ll get bags of wear out of your favorite tweed waistcoat.
Whether you need all five of these winter essentials to update your wardrobe and get you ready for winter, or you’re just in need of a few key pieces, ensuring you’re ready for the cold snap ahead is key to staying on top of your game. After all, being cold and freezing for days on end never did anyone any favors.
