Top tips for keeping warm and cosy

What are your top tips for keeping warm?

The cold does not bother me much but I think there was real dip in temperatures this January. It is OK for my husband who goes off to a warm office but me and the children have felt the cold in our new house which is sadly lacking in a fire or wood burner.

So I asked some world-famous bloggers for their top tips for keeping warm when you are trying to save money on heating bills.

1. Boogie on down to housework

Put the music on full blast while cleaning getting it done faster as will be bopping around….but be careful if listening to the kids Spotify list you’ll find yourself singing along to Justin Beiber before you know it.

2. Rock an Eighties look

Wear eighties leg warmers through the winter months indoors and outdoors

3. Double up on duvets

If you are like me you double up on duvets when the temperatures hit freezing.

4. Love your layers

Chantelle tells me it is all about layers upon layers. I have tried this and it makes such a difference.

5. Sleeping bags and blankets

Sonya confesses to working from home inside a sleeping bag like a giant and warm slug. You might prefer a blanket and if you have two like me, you can ensure you cover up your legs too.

6. Go undercover

Cover up your extremities with hats, scarves, gloves and don’t forget to invest in a warm coat.

7. Hot water bottle

Claire F swears by a hot water bottle whilst on the sofa working from home.

8. Eat the right things

Cold weather means comfort food with Rebecca Rose recommending soup. Indulge in plenty of hot drinks.

9. Exercise

Run up and down the stairs or if you are really brave venture outdoors for a walk knowing you will feel the benefit when you return indoors.

10. I’m too sexy to be cold.

Several bloggers mentioned that snuggling up in bed is great and being cold is a great reason for wild sex.
