My blankets are not any warmer and I didn't want to change blankets so I chose to try other ways. Here is what I attempted and what appeared to work for me.

Warmer pajamas: I am used to using shorts and a tee shirt to bed. Or, often, I'll use a sexy camisole for my partner and I to delight in. This winter season, I tried using long sleeve pajamas. I actually attempted different kinds. Initially, I tried the flannel pajamas. They were very warm and I felt great all night. The only thing was that I didn't get to feel the softness of my down blanket versus my body - something that I really enjoy. Likewise, I didn't feel as appealing going to bed, something that I like to feel as well, specifically with my hubby sleeping beside me. Next, I tried using these silk pajamas. They certainly felt soft to the touch, but weren't as warm as the flannel. It still worked better than a camisole or shorts and a t-shirt.

Heated blanket: Although I like my blankets, I decided to include a heated blanket underneath them just for my body. The heated blanket worked too well. I was practically too hot and my partner and I were afraid of starting a fire in the middle of the night considering that the blanket needed to be plugged in. While this option was good, I chose I would just use it for times when I am resting on the sofa and reading and need some additional heat. I'm keeping the blanket, but am not going to use it to go to sleep.

Cashmere bed socks: This was another option advised to me by a buddy. At first, when she mentioned it, I had no idea what cashmere bed socks were. I discovered that they specify socks that you can purchase to use to bed. Of course, you do not have to purchase these socks and you can always simply wear any set of cotton socks to bed, but these are made particularly to keep your feet warm all night. I actually attempted wearing these with my shorts and t-shirt and discovered that it made a huge distinction in how warm I felt. Surprisingly, these worked really well and I didn't need to fear a fire or change what I generally used. Naturally using socks to bed felt a little foreign to me initially, but eventually I got used to it.

Heated blanket: Although I enjoy my blankets, I chose to include a heated blanket underneath them simply for my body. The heated navien mate bed warmer blanket worked too well. I'm keeping the blanket, however am not going to utilize it to go to sleep.
