The three things I hate more than anything: the smell of hockey, the devil, and being cold. Being cold makes me instantly grouchy, so if I’m going to get through the cold of winter with at least a half smile on my face, I need to keep warm! Today I’m sharing some of my personal favourites, a few suggestions for gifts to keep cozy this winter!

Province of Canada Lightweight Crewneck Sweater {Ontario}

Here I go again, expressing my love for one of my new favourite Canadian lifestyle brands, Province of Canada. This is my new go-to sweatshirt. I love how it fits; I love how it feels; and I love how I can express my love for Canada while still looking cool. Win. Win. Win. I’m pretty small, but the XS fits me perfectly. You can get this sweater here. 

Black XOXO Mug by G Ceramic Co {Vancouver, BC}

I wish I could walk around all day long with my hands wrapped around a mug of hot tea. This mug is perfect. I love the colour, the gold detail and the lovely little XOXO message. Such a sweet gift for anyone who deserves your hugs and kisses. And just to make you seem like you really went above and beyond, ya, those letters are real 18K gold. You can find this mug here. 

Noul Scarf {Vancouver, British Columbia}

A scarf is a great, safe gift for Christmas. You can’t mess up the size and every woman (who does not suffer hot flashes from pregnancy or menopause) wears one. I love this thick black and white scarf. It can pair with almost anything and will keep her cozy all winter! You can find this scarf here.

 

Slouchy Hat by West Company {Grande Prairie, Alberta}

My college roommate and one of my most cherished friends, Heather, is the maker behind these warm slouchy toques. She is one of the most beautiful people I know and makes the most lovely knit items! You can find this hat here. 

Sorel Out N About Leather Boot {Kitchener, Ontario}

Warm shoes are a must for me if I’m going to spend any time outside! What better to keep my toes warm than the classic Canadian brand, Sorel. The company was founded in Kitchener, Ontario in 1962 and has since become one leading winter boot companies around the world. They are functionally warm and water proof, but you don’t have to sacrifice style to keep your toes dry and warm! You can find these ones here.

Manitobah Mocassins {Winnipeg Manitoba}

Is there anything more cozy on your feet in the winter than a pair of fleece-lined moccasins? Maybe this is the grandma in me coming out, but I love a good pair of slippers!  You can find them here. 

Woodlot Candle {Vancouver, British Columbia}

Clearly I’m a woodlot fan! I’ve already talked about them a couple times this holiday season! (Gifts for Cooler-Than-Average Guys here and Gifts for the Spa Lover here) These candles are a worthwhile investment as they burn for 60 hours! You can find them here. 

Wool Striped Socks – Province of Canada {Ontario}

Nothing says warmth and comfort in the winter like a pair of wool socks. They are perfect for weekend lounging around the house, or tucked inside your Sorel boots. You can find these ones here. 

Hudson Bay Caribou Throw Blanket 

This blanket sits folded on the edge of the couch in our living room. Nothing says “I’m Canadian” like a 100% wool Hudson Bay blanket! This isn’t just another throw, it’s a keepsake. We inherited a vintage classic Hudson Bay point blanket from Clark’s grandparents, a gift they received for their wedding more than 60 years ago! These blankets will last for years! You can find this white one here. 

These are my best of Canada picks of gifts to keep cozy this winter! Let me know if I’m missing something I need!
