13 Wacky Ways To Not Freeze Your Butt Off This Winter

Now that the first pretty snowfall is long gone, the dreary, nippy winter weather has officially lost its novelty. Day after day, most of us don identical, androgynous puffy jackets or pea coats as we venture out into the frigid gray abyss. But winter clothes don't have to be boring -- some people are battling the winter blues with these 13 seriously bizarre fashion choices:

1. A tiny hat for your ears

Designed by Tove Greitz and Minna Magnusson.

Cause why should your head get to have all the fun?

2. A crocheted "beard" chin warmer

So you want to stay warm but still look smart? This beard provides insulation and the look of age-endowed wisdom.

3. A boob scarf

It'll seem totally hilarious until a baby tries to surprise-suckle you.

4. A "humanoid" sleeping bag

Thank Japan for this fleece body suit that completely conceals your identity, keeps you warm and, in a pinch, converts into a sleeping bag. Total comfort, and total anonymity.

5. A brain hat

People will think that your brain's so big it exploded.

6. A turkey nose warmer

Has your nose been looking a bit... Rudolph'esque this winter? Do your nostrils a solid with this nose warmer.

7. A USB heating slipper

Everybody at the office will be jealous of your USB-powered ladybug slipper

8. A jacket with built-in goggles

Sure, some people will be creeped out if you wear this on public transit, but when you're living life on fashion's cutting edge, you can't expect everybody to understand.

9. A very peculiar body suit

Introduced in Canada in 1939, these crazy masks promised to keep your makeup looking shiny and fresh during the worst of winter snowstorms. Unsurprisingly, they never really caught on.

See, exciting winter fashion options abound! Why get lost in a sea of black fleeces and gray beanies when you could stand out in delightfully wacky winter apparel?
