Can you really have an enjoyable time parading the beaches of the english riviera shaking in your "Wellies" every time a mean gust of wind blows (which is basically every 40 seconds...)? My wonderful friends, Luke (you know our awesome culture editor) and I headed to Exmouth for a day at the beach and found that beanies made much more sense than bikinis (especially for Luke! :) ) We tested the cashmere Beanies (made in Nepal) from Warm Me and were really taken at how cozy a simple hat can make you feel. A perfect example why investing in quality is important. Stay tuned for tomorrow's article, were I am spotlighting why this brand is special and how they are improving our world hand-knit beanie at a time![/av_image][av_heading tag='h5' padding='10' heading='Feeling cold is one of (if not the) most frustrating, irritating, mood killers out there.
