When I was in high school, you’d routinely see me in jeans, a hooded sweatshirt, and flip flops…when it’s humid and 90 degrees. I’ve even been known to attend cheerleading practice in pants and a sleeveless turtleneck under my shirt. As an adult, I have a space heater pointed at me all day in my home office – on full blast. Let’s face it, as someone with Reynaud’s and several autonomic disorders, it’s a way of life for me! Lucky for you, this makes me an expert in keeping toasty.

Here are some life hacks if you’re always freaking freezing:

Get one of those old timey hot water packs to put in bed with you. Fun fact: back when my dad was young (he was born in 1939!), they’d put plates in the oven and stick them between the comforters!
Rotate your fan ceiling so it runs clockwise on low. Towards the base of the fan, there’s a little switch to flip if it isn’t running clockwise. The updraft pushes warm air, which naturally rises to the ceiling, down along the walls and back the floor.
Layer, like crazy.
Leggings, a shirt, and a sweater! Stylish, comfy, and classy.

Right now, Kohl’s has 30% off women’s warmwear! That’s where I got these Cuddl Duds clothes, which are perfect for layering. This sweater? Ridiculously soft and warm. And look – it has little holes for your thumbs! Perfect for wearing under a coat without having the sleezes all bunched up underneath!
