Lately my sunny city of Los Angeles hasn’t been living up to its brand of being sunny year round. Many people have been confused, because we haven’t had clouds and rain like the ones in these past months in years. I have a friend who runs a plant business that recently moved to Los Angeles from Portland, Oregon for the sun, and I had to apologize myself for the bad weather!

Since I haven’t been exposed to weather like this in awhile, I’ve had to find ways to keep warm. Because many of us really don’t know how to act in 70 degree weather, here are some tips to survive the clouds in Los Angeles.

Wear Cute Sweaters

Now that you have a reason to mix fashion and human necessities, you can make looking warm cute! Teddy Bear sweaters have been this year’s fashion item in everyone’s closet. Its fuzzy, comfortable to wear, and definitely fashionable. Match it with some jeans, tights, or pajama shorts and you could be walking the runway in no time.

Cuddle with Your Pets

If you haven’t cuddled with your pet before, I would definitely recommend doing it. Animals release heat just like humans do, so cuddling with your pet is like hugging a very warm pillow. Not to mention that pets are soft and the perfect cuddle partners.

Stay Inside and Binge Watch

Back in the day, we used to have to go to our local movie store or Blockbuster to rent out our favorite movies/ shows. Now, everything is within an arm’s reach. You don’t have to go out in the cold to see a movie, you can just open up any streaming service and keep yourself entertained for hours. Cuddle up with some snacks, go under the covers, put the heater on and you are set for the night.

Use these tips to survive the last few months of winter, I believe in you! You’ll be able to return to the beach and your summer shorts in no time!
