Back in October, I wrote a post all about blush pink and how to style this charming trend. Blush pink is still one of my favourite tones this season, which is one of the reasons why I was so taken with the AW ‘17 collection from Mint Velvet. Inspired by the Danish concept of Hygge, this collection is particularly sumptuous and cosy, perfect for the colder winter months.

Mint Velvet…

I’ve always been a big fan of this brand – they just seem to do luxe so well. From beautiful lounge wear and stylish accessories, to chic everyday wear and even contemporary homeware, I find myself adding multiple items to my shopping basket every time I visit their website. Best of all, Mint Velvet allow you to indulge in those little luxuries without blowing your bank balance as their pieces are very affordable.

Mint Velvet allow you to create easy and effortless style, ideal for the 21st century woman who doesn’t have as much time as she would like to spend on her look, but still wants to feel stylish and chic. It’s safe to say their collections achieve this.

Hygge…

Inspired by a trip to Copenhagen, Mint Velvet were romanced by the charm of the Danish Hygge mentality. A word that simply doesn’t translate into English, Hygge (pronounced heu-gah) conjures up all sorts of warm feeling amongst the Danes.

Faced with months of dark and cold weather they retreat indoors to create sanctuaries of warmth and cosiness. Bars and cafes are adorned with candles and plush cushions, and blankets are standard issue for late night drinks; think log cabins, roaring fires, curling up on the sofa with a blanket, and indulging in hot chocolate - enjoying the good things in life, with good people around you, enjoying the small things in life and feeling content.

What better way to feel truly content than slipping into the new loungewear range from Mint Velvet at the end of a long day, or having a lazy Sunday afternoon in a satin shorts and cami set, wrapped up in a chunky cardigan on a cold December’s day.

The latest collection reflects the concept of Hygge perfectly, with satin shorts and pyjama sets, knitted knee high socks with pompoms, slipper boots and cashmere cardigans.

This winter I’ll be wrapping up in…

The Nude Satin Short and Cami Set

Available exclusively online, this nude cami and shorts set is feminine and pretty. The lace detail finishes off this simple style perfectly, and the length of the shorts are perfect for snoozing or relaxing. I’ll be teaming this with a chunky cardigan and knitted knee high socks for a night in on the sofa.

The Cashmere Wrap Cardigan

Even at home it’s nice to feel stylish and glamorous. Rather than throwing on a hoody or sweater when it gets chilly, I’ll be wrapping up in this beautiful cardigan. Available in silver grey and blush pink, I will of course be going for the blush pink option.

The collection is truly stunning, making it so hard just to choose a few pieces! I even love the homeware too, and will be investing in a few candles to increase my Hygge vibe.
