There’s no time quite like the winter holidays and the intimacy it can bring. The promise of snowfall and cozy evenings around the fire always bring the family together; plus, there’s all those gifts to unwrap and plenty of great food to enjoy. What’s more, many people also like to take advantage of the holiday period to get away, and hitting the ski slopes or simply traveling to spend time with other family members is becoming increasingly popular. However, this season is no excuse to look shabby, and in fact, there’s plenty of reasons to dust off the kid’s best winter gear and shine like a star through the long winter nights.
With this in mind, we look at some of the best travel gear and clothing on the market to help you and your kids travel in style this winter. Discover how to keep cozy and still look great as you head out into the cold.
Luxurious Luggage
Ensuring you have enough space to squeeze in all of your new purchases is very important, and it’s probably a good idea to pack most of it together in a single case that you are in control of. Giving the kids smaller bags to teach them responsibility is a great idea, but there’s always the risk something will get lost along the way, so make sure you have a sturdy and robust carry-on with plenty of capacity.

The Tumi 19 Degree luggage range has all this in spades, and it can also handle extreme temperature drops when traveling in winter. On top of this, the spacious design can hold plenty of items and the metallic finish looks amazing when wheeled through the airport. Currently, high-end luggage retailer Kaehler has significant discounts on a variety of cases within the collection. Snap one up now and enjoy your winter holidays with the kids in true style this year.
Winter Warmers

Keeping the kids warm as the temperatures drop can be challenging. Thankfully, however, there are plenty of great options out there to keep hands and heads warm. J Crew has a sleigh-load of stylish gloves and hats, including cute kitty mittens and fierce critter beanies suitable for both boys and girls. The kids will love these, and you’re sure to find yourself taking up every photo-op when the kids don these sweet accessories.
Thankfully, the number of options for winter clothing for children has exploded over the last few years, and now the style-sensitive parent has more choice than ever. However, the sheer amount of stylish choices can sometimes leave you snow-blind, so arm yourself with a little inspiration before you head out to the mall and make sure you get something both functional and fabulous.
Sun Protectors

It’s easy to forget the power of the sun as the temperature drops and many parents aren´t aware just how damaging it can be. Particularly if you are going skiing or snowboarding, sun protection is a must, and a decent pair of sunglasses or goggles will help protect your children’s eyes from harmful rays. There’s plenty of information out there as to the importance of sunglasses when on the slopes, so it is useful to learn about this before you head out.
Amazon has a huge range of goggles and glasses currently available, however, they are often a little garish and ungainly. We like the simple and subtle 7eye Whirlwind sunglasses in black, which provide the correct amount of protection without relying on the typically over-the-top color schemes and oversize shapes of many ski goggles on the market.
