Clothing and Dry Cleaning Tips: Dressing for the Weather

With winter fast approaching, the last thing you want to be is caught unawares by the cold temperatures. Even though there is still a handful of warm days left this fall season, those early morning temperatures may leave you feeling like staying inside. Since lounging around the house may be unavoidable, here are a few ways you can prepare for the change in weather.

Wear Layers
Since the snow hasn’t hit the ground yet, you may not be quite ready to pull out your winter parka and boost just yet. That is okay, you can still stay warm without dressing like a snowman. Layer your clothing to keep body heat in and keep you from being overdressed. Popular Franklin TN clothing items that you can use to add layers are leggings, sweaters, camisoles, t-shirts, and hoodies.
Accessorize to Stay Warm
Wear gloves, scarves, and hats to protect your extremities. It is much harder for you to stay warm during the early morning and evening temperature drops if your hands, neck and head are uncovered. An added bonus of wearing these items is that you can use them to compliment any outfit you decide to wear.
Wear Clothes That Fit
While wearing baggy clothes may be in style, shivering and freezing just to look cool isn’t. Loose clothing makes it easier for body heat to escape. If you want to look good and stay warm in the process, consider wearing clothes that actually fit your body.
Be Frugal
While you may be anxious to rush out to go shopping for a ton of new clothes, there are probably plenty of clothes in your closet and stored away in your home that are still in good condition to wear. Save money and time by taking the clothes you already own to the Franklin Tennessee cleaners to get them ready for this season. Why should you be a slave to fashion, when you already have stylish clothes at home that you can use to keep you warm?
