“ Shorter daylight hours mean only one thing : cups of guilt-free hot chocolate and plenty of movie marathons . To get into the spirit , start by swapping our summer fabrics for cosier ones like soft velvets or fuzzy bouclé . Bring in warm , inviting colours ; think rich browns , deep reds and rustic oranges . Not only will they help transition the seasons , but they ’ ll also create a relaxing and warm feeling that ’ s perfect for those lazy evenings on the sofa .”
