It’s thirty-five degrees outside, and you’re just waking up. Getting out of a comfortable warm bed to stand outside is the last thing you want to do, but you have to because it comes with your job. So you stand in front of your closet and you try to assemble the warmest outfit you can put together. It’s getting late and the clock is ticking. You know you should have had your outfit laid out the night before, but just thinking about all those clothes is a task you keep putting off. You never know what to wear anyway.
Instructions
1. If you are a woman, you might want to wear two, or even three, pairs of leggings under a pair of wool pants. Don’t be concerned if you look a pound heavier than you really are. Wool and fabrics such as silk and propylene will keep you warmer than other fabrics will. A man should wear thermal underwear under his pants.
2. Blouses and shirts that have sleeves that hug your wrists should be worn to keep in body heat. Wear three blouses or shirts for maximum warmth.
3. Wear heavy socks to keep your feet warm (two or three pairs). Wool socks are best. Cotton socks should be avoided. Wear boots that are insulated and waterproof.
4. Wear a down jacket if you have one. If not, you should buy one. A jacket or coat made of down will keep you warm in the coldest weather. The longer the jacket is, the warmer you’ll be.
5. Wear a pair of gloves underneath a pair of mittens. If don’t want to wear both, wear the mittens. They will keep your hands warmer than the gloves will.
6. You
7. Last, wear a fur hat that goes over your ears as well as your head. Heat escapes from your head, so you want to make sure it’s covered.
