Duvet Day Essentials

Image Source
Last weekend I had the laziest of Lazy days. It wasn't planned and it wasn't particularly the best idea seeing as I am currently shrinking under a mountain of coursework deadlines... But sometimes you just have to say 'not now, World' and stay in bed only leaving for food, toilet breaks and maybe to answer your door to the Postman because something you ordered online has finally arrived (hooray!). If you are having a duvet day though, you have to fully commit and go all the way. There is nothing worse than squirming under a sea of guilt because you think you should be doing something more productive with your day. Let's be honest, you've probably been working really hard recently...right? So you deserve it, right?! Well, that's what I told myself any way ha!. Just call it and announce - 'today, I am literally not going to do anything.' Playing The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars will probably get you in the mood. Anyway, I wanted to share with you guys some of my 'Duvet Day' essentials.

Duvet, a cup of tea & your Laptop - I think no lazy day in is complete without the biggest duvet you can find in your house, a ma-hoosive mug of tea and a Laptop or Netbook by your side. These are the key ingredients to a 'lazy day in' and without it, you're just having 'a day in' - fact (kinda).  The tea and duvet work hand in hand as the duvet stops all the warmth and goodness/happiness from your cup of tea from escaping - fact (kinda).

A Laptop or Netbook offers you endless access to the world wide web and to be honest what could be better than that? Hours upon hours just spent catching lols from cat videos, videos of dogs walking like humans and laughing babies. WHAT IS BETTER THAN THAT? Nothing. (well... World Peace would be better but... y'know).

DVD's / TV Programmes - I guess there are only so many laughing baby videos you can watch on YouTube so a Duvet Day is great to catch up on your fave TV shows at the moment (mine is currently New Girl!) or watch The Notebook and Moulin Rouge on DVD and cry for the 35443rd time...

Music or a good book - I currently have Kodaline's album on repeat because it is just so darn good. Has anyone listened to it?? It's so lovely and relaxing - perfect for a day where you don't want to get out of bed unless you absolutely must. My favourite tracks on the album are One Day, Love Like This, High Hopes, Way Back When and The Answer (yeah basically all of them...)  Do you guys have any album recommendations?

  1. Actually today I had my time of relaxation and I did everything that you listed haha. Most relaxing thing ever my goodness. Oh and to answer your question my favorite place to visit is probably a tie between Paris and Sydney. I went to Sydney about 4 years ago and I LOVED IT, then this year I went to Paris and I loved it as well. You know what, I just love visiting places regardless. Love traveling so much. How about you?
