4. Swaddle yourself in a luxuriously lightweight throw blanket you can fold over your chair — and act like the office royalty you are.
Promising Review: “This blanket is a little thinner but soft and very warm! I got the pink, which is more of a dusty rose kind of color. I’ve had no problems with shedding or excessive ‘fuzzies’ so far. I would definitely recommend if you're looking for an extra blanket for around the house!” —Laura Novak
Get it from Amazon for $14.80 (available in five colors).
5. Swing a beautiful floral-print scarf around your neck to leave all your co-workers shivering with envy.
6. Throw on a cozy zip-up hoodie to shield your body from your office’s bitter chill.
Promising Review: “I love this hoodie out of all the hoodies in my collection. I picked a size large because I love when hoodies are baggy on me and cover me up. The red was the crisp, bright shade I wanted. This hoodie is a very soft fleece. It's comfortable.” —Harley
Get it from Amazon: Women’s hoodie (available in six colors, sizes S-2XL) for $11.99+ and men’s hoodie for $11.99 (available in 10 colors, sizes S-3XL)
7. Or slip into a sharp open-front blazer or cardigan if your office dress code is a little more formal.
Promising Review: “I got this for my mom who is 5'6'' and 140 pounds, the medium fits her perfectly. The material feels soft, silky, and really nice. If you didn't know, you would assume it's made from some blend of silk and handkerchief linen. The jacket is also really good-quality and very well-made. You don't have the odd strings sticking out like you see on cheaper clothing you buy online. Every stitch is in the right place and perfectly executed. The jacket has a little bit of shoulder padding to maintain the shape.” —Emzet
Get them from Amazon: Blazer for $19.11+ (available in navy and black, sizes XS-XL) and cardigan for $12.56+ (available in 19 colors, sizes S-3XL).

8. Make room on your desk for a tiny — but powerful — space heater to blow that frigid air far, far away.
Promising Review: “When it first arrived it seemed like it was way too small to heat up a room so I went and bought a tower heater. That one used way too much power so I returned it. This small heater really surprised me by heating my condo up just enough for me to keep the house heater turned off! It's a space saver for sure, but does the job quite well.” —Kayla Turner
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (also available in white).
9. Pull down an adjustable dad hat so you can avoid the dreaded AC brain freeze.
10. Layer a soft V-neck T-shirt under your button-up for an extra barrier from the super-low office temps.
A T-shirt will also help catch sweating caused by your eventual return to the heat outside — perfect to help avoid dramatic sweat stains.
Promising Review: “I needed a bunch of summer tees to do yard work and run errands. These are soft and fit perfectly. 'm a woman and ordered the men’s V-neck, and they are the perfect thickness and very soft. They also wash great.” —UrbanUtah
Get a pack from Amazon for $12.96+ (available in four-pack, six-pack, and 12-pack, sizes S-5XL).
11. Show off your legs with a funky set of thigh-highs or tube socks you can throw on if you typically rock leg-baring outfits.
High socks are an easy way to cover exposed skin without having to completely change your outfit once you get to work.
Promising Review: “These knee-highs are my favorite socks ever! They fit me perfectly, and are nice and snug. They don’t fall or slide down at all.” —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon: Women’s knee-high socks three-pack for $10.90+ (available in 14 pattern sets) and men’s tube sock five-pack for $14.95

12. Nuzzle your ears with a soft pair of ear muffs, which will be especially helpful if you are extremely close to the AC unit or vent.
Promising Review: “These ear warmers are very good. They fit well on the back of the head and keep my ears warm, even in cold Minnesota weather. The inner layer is made from artificial fur, which is very soft and quite thick. I was wearing them for five to six hours today, and did not feel uncomfortable!” —Loks
Get them from Amazon for $6.49 (available in eight colors).
13. Lock out any piercing blasts of air — and add some serious mystery to your next team meeting — with a slightly dramatic ski mask.
Promising Review: “The mask fits exactly as it should. The holes are the right size and they perfectly line up with my eyes and mouth. It's not extremely cold yet, but this mask does create a layer of insulation that keeps my head and face warm.” —Mrdlyte
Get it from Amazon for $2.99 (available in seven colors).
14. Give the AC a stylish eff you with a denim jacket you can leave at the office all summer long — so you won’t have to worry about toting a bulky jacket in your work bag or tote.
Promising Review: “This jacket fits well and the stitching is great. I also love that it offers extra stretch without losing the denim look. I ordered the large and it fits true to size, as I usually wear a 14!” —TX Cowgirl
Get them from Amazon: Women’s jacket for $29.99 (available in two colors, sizes S-XL) and Men’s jacket for $32.40+ (available in six colors, sizes S-6X Big).

15. Top off your bare arms with an oversized denim shirt, which will offer more flexibility than a closer-fitted jacket or hoodie.
A denim shirt may not the right fit for your office. But it is easier to pack away in your backpack or tote bag than a larger jacket or sweater. And it still offers some extra warmth without being too bulky or restrictive.
Promising Review: "This shirt is well-made, soft and ready to wear out of the package. I purchased mine one size bigger than my measured size because I wanted it to fit loose over another shirt. The sizing and fit was perfect. I'll be buying more of these in the future!” —Tony B
Get it from Amazon for $15.98+ (available in sizes XS-6X Plus).

16. Hide your ankles from Mr. Freeze with a pair of neon leg warmers — perfect for still showing off your dope sneakers, flats, or heels.
17. Swap your cold brew with a hot cup of coffee or tea for some temporary warmth that'll transport you from the office Arctic — at least for a few minutes.
18. And hell, if all else fails, just cut off the air or ask for the temperature to be lowered.
If it isn't an option, though, you’ll just have to keep shivering.
Now work life with the AC will be a breeze.
