Frosty Fest Essentials: Your Ultimate Guide for Winter Festivals and Tailgating
Winter is here – it's time to bundle up and hit the outdoor winter festivals! But before you pack your bags, let's make sure you're armed with the ultimate arsenal of essentials to keep you warm and cozy so you make it through the night.
1. Snuggle-Worthy Layers:
First things first, let's talk fashion. Yes, you want to stay warm and comfy but let’s keep it cute. Wear an undershirt and long sleeve shirt or thermal and build from there. Add a cute cardigan or chunky sweater and bring a matching hat, scarf and glove set. To keep your toes toasty be sure to wear fuzzy socks and it’s a great time to break out the Uggs or knee-high boots. If your feet usually stay cold like mine, also bring a pair of heated insoles.
2. Something to Sip On:
If the event organizers allow outside drinks, make your coca, coffee (or hot toddy 😉) and put it in the best thermal cup you own. Bonus points if your insulated travel mug is sparkly – because why not?
3. Glow-in-the-Dark Glam:
It’s going to get dark early so pack some fun glow gear. When I used to take the minis to Disney World I’d pop into Dollar Tree and grab glow bracelets, necklaces and whatever else I could find. You could also wear an LED beanine, a blinking cowboy hat or blinged out necklace. This way it’s easy to find your crew and it’s just fun.
5. Pocket-Sized Heatwaves:
Meet your new best friend – hand warmers. Slip these magic pouches into your pockets, and presto! Instant warmth whenever and wherever you need it. Perfect for those moments between sets when you’re not dancing, but you're definitely still grooving.
There you have it, festive friends – your go-to guide for staying warm in the winter wonderland. Pack these essentials and you'll be singing, dancing and grooving with the best of them. Winter festivals, here you come! ❄️🎶✨
