My tips for walking the beach in the winter:
FOOT WEAR- sneakers do not work. Â I wear hiking shoes (Merrell’s). Â They keep my feet warm and dry, and provide better stability when I “hike” over the jetty rocks!
SOCKS- I’m a fan of Smart Wool socks.
PANTS- jeans are like sneakers…worn only when the weather is mild. Â Thicker material is best- even if they still have the “mom jeans” look.
TURTLENECK- prefer those with a stretched out neck- to pull up when walking into the wind.
JACKET- Â I wear an LL Bean ski jacket that I bought on sale years ago (with a hood, and inside pocket to keep my phone warm). Â I like that it’s a bright color to contrast against the gray sand/sky.
HAT/GLOVES- some are warmer than others- depends on weather conditions. Â If it’s really brutal, I wear a neck scrunchie that will partially cover my face.
Doesn’t this sound fun…not to mention fashionable??
Actually, it’s totally worth it for the views. Â Plus I am motivated by my blog and Twitter followers expecting pictures 😉
