Well, actually it’s already here.
Time to kiss fall goodbye and embrace the colder temperatures, warmer clothes, snow and – most importantly – prepare for the holidays. Winter gets a pretty bad rep, but there are plenty of things to love about the colder months.
Sure, no one really likes being cold, but let’s face it – winter isn’t all bad. All the best holidays are in December, the greatest movies of all time are basically on loop all season long and – admit it – you don’t hate cheating on your usual Pumpkin Spice Latte with a Gingerbread or Peppermint Mocha.
With the winter solstice looming, we rounded up all the reasons winter is actually the greatest season of all time.
Check it out.
Depending which part of the world you live in, winter means snow…
…calm down, it’s not so bad…
Have you ever seen a prettier sight than freshly fallen snow?!
Plus, cold weather is the perfect excuse to stay in bed all day…
You no longer have to pretend to feel guilty about being a total bum…
…or binging on Netflix.
Don’t have Netflix? Fear not! All the best movies are on all winter long…
…Seriously, how many times is too many to watch Elf?
Winter is a great excuse to rock comfy clothes…
…even our four legged friends can get in on the action!
Sure, finding a winter coat that’s both stylish and warm can be difficult…
…but it’s not impossible!
…So bundle up…
…or else!
Cold weather calls for comfort foods…
…and let’s be honest…
…all the best foods are comfort foods.
Though everyone knows the Pumpkin Spice Latte is the greatest blended coffee drink of all time…
…there’s a special place in our hearts for Ginger Bread, Caramel Brule, and Peppermint Mocha.
December plays host to all the best holidays. You’ve got Christmas…
…Which means decking the halls…
…gorgeous lights…
…family…
…good food…
…and most importantly – PRESENTS!
Then there’s Hanukkah…
…well, normally. Thanks a lot, Jewish calendar!
And if you’re really lucky, you get both!
Regardless of which holiday you celebrate, we can all agree that New Year’s Eve is the best…
…Nothing like getting dressed up to get messed up with all your closest friends!
Just prepare yourself for the hangover that’s sure to ensue…
…it’s alright, you’ve got 364 days to make better choices.
Snow gives way to all the best outdoor activities…
…like skiing…
…snowboarding…
…and ice skating…
…and no matter how old you are, if someone yells, “snowball fight,” you throw a fucking snow ball.
Sure, winter can be a bummer…
…but keep in mind, summer is right around the corner!
