Winter-Weather Gear

Last Winter put words like 'snowpocalypse' and 'snowmageddon' in our vocabulary. And, according to accuweather.com's winter forecast, this winter could be just as bad as last.

To make sure you're prepared before the flakes fly, expert Hannah Keeley from the show, 'Hannah Help Me' gives us the scoop on what we should be looking for in outerwear. 

Are people usually prepared for winter before it's too late? 

HK: Shockingly, the answer is actually no. In a recent Lands' End survey of Moms around the country, nearly 70% of the respondents said they have found themselves and their families unprepared for the coldest of seasons!

It's odd because most of these people prepare their homes, they prepare their cars, but they forget to prepare themselves for winter! The first thing everybody should do is lay out all the family jackets, boots, hats and gloves from last year. Next, find out what fits, and what needs to be replaced. Finally, when you've made your list, make sure you're buying outerwear with quality construction, or it won't hold up when winter turns nasty. A great place to find quality coats for the entire family is Lands' End.
