How To Keep Warm During the Big Freeze

With the big freeze spreading across the country we’re all desperately trying to keep warm. Wearing the right sort of clothing is really important during these extreme weather conditions. Classic British Styles have the solution with their fantastic selection of warm and cosy winter wear including soft thermals, comfy dressing gowns, fabulous bed jackets and more.

Thermal underwear can really make a difference when it comes to keeping you warm in extreme temperatures. Wearing several thin layers of clothing is far more effective than wearing one thick layer as warm air gets trapped between the layers of clothing keeping you warm. At Classic British Styles we have a fantastic selection of British designed and manufactured thermal underwear for both men and women from quality brands including Palm, Vedonis and Guardian. For men we have extra-warm long Johns, thermal T-shirts as well as long sleeves tops. We’ve also got a fantastic selection for women including thermal vests, t-shirts, long sleeve tops and long johns.

We also have a fantastic selection of ladies dressing gowns and bedjackets to keep you warm and cosy at home in the evenings without a very expensive heating bill. A couple of our favourites from our range of bed jackets and dressing gowns are the love heart forever friends house coat and the lovely long sleeved velevet Kaftan Kimono. We have the largest bed jacket collection for sale on the web so you won’t find a better selection anywhere else. Why not try the quilted luxury bed jacket from the Slenderalla brand or one of our polar soft bath robes from the Moon River brand.

The frosty cold weather looks as if it is here to stay, so make you’re prepared with our fantastic collection of thermals, bed jackets, and dressing gowns from top quality brands.

Keep Warm this Winter with Thermal Underwear

Thermal underwear is a great way to stay warm in the cold winter months. As we move further and further into the dark and dreary days of winter now is the time to start looking for that comfortable and cosy style that will keep you warm whilst still looking good.

Thermal underwear works by trapping your body heat to keep you warm. It not only provides another layer of clothing, but it also lets air in to keep you from perspiring, whilst still holding your heat in to keep you warm. The thermal underwear available from Classic British Styles comes with a brushed cosy layer that sits next to your skin to not only keep you warm, but feeling comfortable as well.

They offer many different styles for both men and women. For women there’s a fantastic range of thermal tops including V-neck sleeveless or sleeved tops, scooped neck short or long sleeves tops, thermal camisoles, and much more. They also have many different styles for the bottoms including shorts, mid-leg length and long leggings. Men have the same options—from vests to short and long sleeve T-shirts and on the bottom briefs, shorts and long johns. They also have an XXL range with larger sizes for men.

You can choose from a variety of fabric types including knit, brushed, poly-blends and fleeced. These each help keep in heat, but you can choose the fabric that feels the best to you. The combinations and choices available are endless. Find the kind you like and buy a couple of pairs, or try different combinations to create your own style and comfort level.

Traditionally thermal underwear has been large and bulky, requiring that it only be worn as pyjamas or on the ski slopes. The Classic British Styles range and designs, however, can be worn pretty much anywhere. The sleek and fitted thermal underwear will work under your everyday clothes and will keep you warm while not adding bulk or bulges to your outfit. Enjoy being able to wear what you want while staying warm thanks to the many designs available made to work with all styles of clothing.

As you plan your winter wardrobe this year be sure to look carefully at the cold and snow ahead of you, and plan to wear thermal underwear that will keep you feeling warm and cosy whilst still looking great.

Choosing the correct thermal underwear may seem rather daunting because unlike picking up regular underwear you cannot just pick them off the shelves & walk away.

Like most thermal underwear ranges the XXL and bigger range offers great warmth and comfort as it is made from a combination of polyester and viscose materials. These materials are great for retaining body heat during the cold winter months.

Available in white or blue and sizes 4XL’s to 6XL’s this top can be easily worn underneath any work shirt or everyday clothing. If you are looking to keep your whole body warm this winter then the matching men’s long johns make a great combo.

What types of ladies thermal underwear are there?

It's heading towards that time of year again when we begin to dig out our thermals from the back of our wardrobes. It may be seen as old fashioned but like most fashion trends it's making a comeback, and here at Classic British Style we have all the latest trends in ladies thermal underwear for you.

Thermal underwear works by retaining more body heat then most cotton based clothing and works very hard to stop sweat and moisture building up. Thermal underwear keeps you feeling warm and dry and most are usually made from two-ply polypropylene fabric. Thermal underwear should be secure fitting and not loose at all, in order to fit cleanly underneath clothing and other attire, however, it should remain comfy.

Thermal underwear is usually white and comes in a variety of sizes which are small, medium, large and extra large. There are a few different types of ladies thermal underwear available to buy these include long vests, briefs, long johns, long sleeved vest tops and panties. Here at Classic British Styles we stock only the highest quality thermal underwear brands such as Slenderella, Royce, Slenders, Brettles, Palm and many more.

If you are looking for the perfect ladies thermal underwear for this season then you need to consider the following:

Upper body

Long Vests are ideal for keeping your upper torso warm. They come to just above the mid-thigh area and are sleeveless. They are quite basic in style; however, some have lace trim along the strap and neck line.

Long Sleeved vest are also good for keeping your upper body warm. They usually come to just above the mid-line area and are available with a choice of neckline. Some have scoop necks, whilst others are available in a v-neck style with lace trim.

Short sleeved vests are very similar to the long sleeved vests in terms of style and shape the only difference is that the sleeves come down to the elbows.


Lower body

Pantie thermals are great for keeping the lower half of your body warm. They come to just above the knee in length and sit right at the waist. Some are made of cotton, while others are made from a brushed fleece material.

Long john thermals are ideal if you want to cover your legs and keep the lower half of your torso completely warm. They snugly fit from your waist all the way down to your ankles.

Surgical bras


Whether you have opted for breast enlargement/reduction surgery or you have had to go under the knife for medical reasons, breast surgery of any description is uncomfortable at best.

Pain killers will be prescribed to patients but proper support will be instrumental to recovery. This is because surgical bras are specially designed to meet a patient's specific needs.

Features:

  • Seam-free at the front to reduce irritation to sensitive skin
  • Fastens at the front to minimise stretching your arms out and potentially splitting stitches
  • Thicker shoulder straps to take the weight of your breasts
  • Antibacterial materials is vital as patients are often advised that they should not shower for 3-7 days after an operation.
  • Pocket for prosthesis if required.
