This is the longest winter EVER! I keep praying that each morning I will wake up to a brisk sunny 50 degree day {and that’s not even THAT warm!} but instead every day is another snowy and frigid forecast in the low 30’s. I have tried the spring mentality, leaving my hats, gloves and scarves at home, telling myself it’s not that bad out, but I always end up cutting my errands short to run home and throw on more layers. I decided to finally be real with myself; give in to the cold and stay bundled. To make my cold weather accessory options seem more enticing, not to mention handy and visible, I decided to spend some time organizing my cold weather gear this weekend {which was perfect since I was in the process of moving!}.

For my hats and gloves, I decided to hold them all together in a wicker basket. I folded my hats and headbands in half and placed them all in a stack on the right side of the basket while I placed my gloves in a neat pile on the left. This is a great opportunity to locate each glove’s mate and toss singles that you have been holding onto with hopes of finding the other! I placed the basket right below my scarves so in one swoop I can grab all three items before running out the door.

In an ideal world I would recommend keeping these items in a coat closet near your jackets or somewhere by the front door. That way right when you get home you can put everything back in their respective spot rather than throwing gloves on the bed, hat over the door, and scarf on your dining room table.

Fingers crossed that warm weather fashion posts are coming soon!
