It's happened. The temperatures have plummeted to below zero and leaving the house officially requires Michelin Man-level layering (or a heated gilet at least). Getting dressed for this weather is not for the faint of heart, but what if we told you there was a way to step outside in zero-degree weather, without feeling like your ears might fall off? Allow us to (re)-introduce: earmuffs.

If we're being honest, earmuffs are a trend we didn't see making a comeback. Sure, they were a huge hit in the school playground circa 2001 but never in a million years did we imagine that they'd be seen on the head of every It girl, a whole 20 years later.

Bella Hadid is among the celebs who have made a strong case for their revival – she's been spotted wearing the winter accessory in countless pap pics looking cool (and cosy) as per. Also jumping on the bandwagon is Chrissy Teigen, who was seen in a pair of Apparis earmuffs just after Christmas and Kendall Jenner, who wears them when she's on her annual snowy holiday.

This isn't the first time we've been shown the style credentials of earmuffs, however. As Charlotte York in Sex and the City, Kristin Davis wore a pair of Burberry earmuffs several times during the course of the show. More recently, they were dusted off from the archives for the second season of And Just Like That... remind us all that they can be, actually, quite chic.

If you're still unconvinced, please see Mariah Carey in Aspen wearing a Chanel pair. That is all.
