Between 5 and 10 degrees it is a good idea to wear materials like wool and lighter padded jackets than the classic winter Eskimo down jacket (but a little less strong than what we wear below zero).
When the temperature is between 5 and 10 degrees, you need to find the right balance between warmth and style in your clothing. We will offer you many detailed tips on how to dress appropriately and fashionably in these weather conditions.
1.1 The choice of materials
- Base Layer:
The layer in contact with the skin should be made of breathable materials that wick away moisture, keeping the skin dry and warm. Thermal shirts made of synthetic fabrics or merino wool are ideal for this function. - Middle Layer:
This layer has the task of thermal insulation, retaining body heat. Fleece sweatshirts or wool sweaters are excellent choices to ensure adequate insulation. - Outer Layer:
The outer jacket should protect from wind and moisture. A waterproof and windproof jacket is recommended to maintain comfort in adverse weather conditions.
Down and Velvet: These are warm and soft materials, ideal for colder days. A lightweight down jacket can be a great choice, or a velvet coat can add style and warmth. However, these materials can be quite bulky, so you need to pay attention to size and combinations to avoid looking too bulky.
Flannel and Thick Cotton Fabrics: Flannel has a soft and warm surface, while thick cotton fabrics can provide some insulation. They are suitable for shirts, pants or skirts. For example, a flannel shirt can be paired with a pair of jeans to get a casual but warm look.
1.2 Choosing the style
Layers: Wearing multiple layers of clothing rather than a single layer is often more effective at keeping heat in. A thin shirt and a button-up shirt can be worn under an outer jacket.
Fit and Softness: Choosing clothing that is soft and close to the body can help retain heat better than clothing that is too loose and fluffy. However, you still need to find a balance so that it doesn’t feel too tight. For example, a soft slim-fit sweater can be paired with loose-fitting pants.
1.3 The choice of colors
Neutral Colors: Neutral colors such as black, white, gray, beige and brown are always a safe and easy to match choice. They are suitable for any occasion and can be combined with each other or with other colors to create different effects. A pair of black pants can be paired with a white shirt and a gray jacket.
Dark Colors: Dark colors such as black, navy, and dark gray tend to absorb light and retain heat better than light colors. They are also more practical because they do not show stains as easily. However, you should avoid wearing too many dark colors together so as not to look too gloomy. For example, a navy jacket can be paired with a beige shirt and black pants. -
