Trend News: Hygge

There's one word that we keep seeing pop up this season time and time again and that's 'hygge' (pronounced 'hoo-ga'). Hygge isn't so much a 'thing' as a way of life, a lifestyle, a feeling. Confused? Let us explain...

Hygge, which originates from Denmark (named the happiest nation in the world) is all about creating a warm, cozy atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life, with people you care about. Lighting some relaxing candles or having a long soak in a hot bath is hygge. Snuggling up under a blanket with a good book is hygge. Sipping a mug of hot chocolate in front of an open fire with your family is hygge. Inviting loved ones round for drinks or a home-cooked dinner is hygge. Long walks along the beach with friends is hygge.

Although generally associated with winter and Christmas, hygge is very much an all year round way of life and although it's become somewhat of a trend this season, it's certainly not something new and it's a lifestyle concept that we're more than happy to embrace!
