You're never too old to rock a pair of these bad boys.
15. Festive jumpers
If it's got a fat robin and some holly on it, you need it in your life.

Ice skating is definitely one of the reasons why winter is the best season. You get to drink hot chocolate with whipped cream and a flake afterwards. And pretend you could've been an Olympic ice skater if only you'd started early enough.
17. Coffee comes in amazing flavours, like spiced gingerbread. Mmm, good!
