The Ultimate Cosy Evening Essentials Checklist

The nights are drawing in, the weather is getting colder and that is a sign that the best months of the year are literally on our doorstep. To be honest I’m that really annoying person that literally as soon as my birthday ends (the 25th August) I’m ready for fluffy jumpers, colder weather, blankets everywhere, candles burning duvet days galore and to just curl up in bed and binge watch all of my favourite things. So with that being said what are the things for the ultimate cosy evening?

1. Duvets and Blankets

Let’s be honest we all know that I’m the kind of person that would want to build a duvet and blanket fort, hide in it or under it and never come out. Personally it would be an absolute dream come true to hide in a duvet and blanket fort, and on the colder days, when it is raining outside, curling up in duvets and blankets are the best things in the world!

2. Hot Drinks

I have been drinking a hell of a lot of coffee lately, I mean more than normal, but when I’m planning on having a cosy day to myself, I’m determined to have a steady supply of hot drinks, mainly coffee, tea and hot chocolate, I’m covering all the bases!

3. Fairy Lights

I love having fairy lights everywhere, having them twinkle and flicker, it’s like internally my mind is preparing me for Christmas with all the festive Christmas lights. But having fairy lights on while you’re laying down is so calming and relaxing!

4. Candles

I’m a sucker for a candle that smells amazing that is also vegan friendly and having candles dotted around the place burning, releasing all the calming scents, I’m totally all about that, and I really really love fruity scents, I find them the most calming, and the most appealing, although if I have one that smells like cake or anything super sweet then I’m also in a different kind of heaven!

5. Netflix

We all know that I’m a massive sucker for Netflix, I mean the amount I talk about Netflix I should probably have shares or something in it! I’ve actually got a few posts on my blog all about my current favourites when it comes to Netflix (6 Netflix Favourites & 6 Bingeworthy Box Sets) and I’m pretty sure that there is something for everyone on there. The amount of amazing shows on there including movies is incredible!

6. Pyjama’s

There is literally nothing more comfortable than pj’s, however curling up in the most comfy pj’s with all my favourite things has definitely got to be the best thing ever. If I could live in my pj’s then I probably would mainly because I feel like the PJ life is the best kind.

7. Snacks

Snacks are always needed, from some chocolate (yes Vego bars) to popcorn to crisps to some fruit too, I mean if you’re having a cosy evening without snacks, what is happening?! We all need some delicious snacks eseppcially if you’re having a super chilled out evening, having all your favourite snacks is literally necessary!
