Dressing for Bi-Polar Weather

These past few weeks have been reminiscent of winter. From chilling breezes to spontaneous bouts of snowfall, it’s hard to believe that spring has even arrived.
We’ve tossed our snow boots and winter coats to the side only to greet them once more. While some days welcome beautiful sunshine and light breezes, other days aren’t as glamorous, making getting dressed in the morning a complete hassle for college students. Getting dressed should be a hassle-free process!
So to ensure you don’t walk into a snowfall with sandals on or tread around in rain boots on a perfectly dry day, below are three basic solutions for dressing for the frosty spring season:
First, check the weather. Whether you choose to watch the weather on your TV or via a phone app, you could be doing yourself an injustice by not checking daily and weekly weather reports. While some may not find weather as newsworthy as the newest Rihanna song, you will feel a sense of delight when you are able to pull out your umbrella at the first sight of rainfall.
Also, try to stick to closed-toe shoes. Not only do they protect you from potential rainfall and other inclement weather conditions, they will also keep your feet warm in the event of frigid weather.
Finally, make sure to always keep a jacket or hoodie handy. This cannot be stressed enough, particularly for those of you travelling long-distances. Chances are that an 80 degree morning in Peoria will precede a 30 degree night. It’s a good idea to be prepared.
While we would all like to kick our winter clothing habits to the curb, it’s best to construct a solid plan of action in the event that warm spring weather decides to leave you out in the cold — no pun intended.
