Intro
The wind in winter can be quite terrifying; it keeps creeping up your neck, making your head ache and causing a buzzing pain – it’s truly maddening! So, in this article, I will recommend some essential hats and gloves for those who always have cold hands and feet, ensuring you maintain both style and warmth!
Kent & Curwen
Kent & Curwen is a relatively niche luxury brand in the UK. This beanie from it is a classic one. The pure wool feels soft to the touch and is very comfortable to wear. The rose pattern on it is also their signature. Even if you are dressed in a bulky outfit,this hat still adds a touch of style and personality.
The price is usually around £70, but it will be cheaper when there is a discount.

Acne Studios’ square smiley face design is very stylish, and their hats are quite popular, available in many styles including solid colors and checkerboard patterns. Made of 100% wool, their warmth is reliable, and they are very flattering to the face.
The regular price in the UK is around £130, but during Black Friday discounts, you can get it for less than £100.

Charles Jeffrey Loverboy
This piggy beanie from their store is super popular, but it actually looks more like cute cat ears! It comes in several colors, and it looks really cute on girls, making their faces look smaller and more photogenic.
This hat costs £105 and is occasionally on sale; the thicker version is much more expensive.

Kangol originally manufactured British military and traditional clothing, but later it gradually became a representative of street culture. The wool beret features a unique kangaroo embroidery, giving it a three-dimensional and stylish look.
You can often see it on celebrities and in Instagram outfits. The price is pretty reasonable too, around £50–70, though some collabs can cost double.

Dents
This is the same style worn by 007 Bond, a brand favored by the British Royal Family. It’s available in various textures of leather, including sheepskin and deerskin, and comes with multiple lining options. The design and cut accentuate slender fingers without being bulky. Overall, it exudes a sophisticated and gentlemanly air, suitable for cool boys and girls.
The leather is not only waterproof, but also allows you to touch your phone screen. The price is around £60-£110.

Cornelia James
Also favored by the Queen and Princesses of England, it comes with a handwritten card, making it a particularly meaningful gift. The cute and playful bow on the wrist breaks up the otherwise formal and dull look, giving the wearer an elegant and sophisticated air.
The price is also on the higher side, around £150. However, considering the brand name and quality, it’s still very worthwhile!
