5 Warm Handbag Muffs—Your New Cold-Weather Savior

<div class="full-width-image" </div Maybe you reside in some sand-strewn beach destination (or you’re just there visiting) and you are sipping out of a coconut as you are reading this, basking in the sun while leisurely skimming these words. That s nice and all, but if you are pounding the pavement along much of the northern part of this country, your blood will have already turned to ice by the time you have reached the last sentence—and you can blame that on the below zero–degrees wind chill and the black hole of your bag. When in the great frigid concrete outdoors, there is nothing worse than having to excavate your phone or wallet from the bottomless pit of your purse: your freezing hands shaking, the loose change and receipts and for some reason perpetually capless chapstick rustling around and becoming disgusting. It’s day-ruining. But fret no more! There is a sartorial solution for the handbag shuffle. Take it from Nasiba Adilova, (street style maven hailing from chilly Russia, no less) who has put her knowledge of how to fight the arctic tundra to good use by toting a stylish and cozy handbag muff, or from Michael Kors, whose fall 2015 show yesterday incorporated the winter warmers in countless looks. In a flash, the clever creation allows the wearer to slip their hands into a fuzzy-lined, compact purse. That means no more digging through satchels with naked hands or bulky mittens and no more bouts of hand-hypothermia. Plus, it s one quick slip and unzip to your daily essentials. Here, see five handbag muffs that will ensure toasty hands and no-fret access to your necessities all winter long. ​
