November's nasty cold weather makes you want to do some serious cocooning at home, whether you're single, a couple or you've got kids.
To get the most from your cocooning time you need:
• Comfy clothes. Sweat pants and yoga pants are the foundation of the cocooning wardrobe;
• A cozy corner, like your bed for instance, under a warm cushy duvet, or the sofa, suitably enveloped in cushions and covers;
• A good book and appropriate mood music or a great movie or TV series that'll keep you spellbound for hours.
