There’s no better time for some much-needed R&R as temperatures cool and the urge to stay inside grows. Put your favourite facemask on, begin the binge on that Netflix show and grab a cup of hot chocolate, with marshmallows of course!

More than just an “aesthetic”, cosy core is a way of life. Prioritise your well-being and self-care over the mid-year hustle and bustle. Planning on braving the weather? Think oversized warm jumpers, matching loungewear sets, and big fluffy scarves. Pair a chunky knitted sweater with your favourite jeans and fleece-lined clogs for a trip to the winter night markets or swap the clogs out for some knee-high boots for a chic dinner outfit. The goal is to feel like you’re wrapped up in a warm blanket. Find your cosiest new piece at DFO prices.

Let’s Set The Mood.

We’re breaking up with downlights this season. For the perfect cosy vibe, ambient lighting will do wonders for setting a calm, relaxing mood in your home. Lighting has a big effect on our emotional state, so it’s important to consider the types of light used in your resting space. For that sunset feeling, put light dimmers on and set your lamps to a warm hue to avoid eyestrain and promote a sense of relaxation and restful sleep.

Laying out plenty of blankets with a variety of textures is another fantastic way to up the cosy vibe of your space. Blankets, throws and cushions galore! Taking inspiration from nature, keep the colours in your home focused on warm neutrals and earthy tones like soft greens, moody burgundies and rich browns. Shop savvy and transform your home when you DFO.
