We’re determined to be chilled this Christmas, taking inspiration from actor and designer Chloë Sevigny. She’s wrapping her hair in a scarf (thus avoiding the December scramble for salon blowdries), and taking time out. For once, we will avoid being entirely burnt-out come January. Kick back and turn down the volume. That might mean ultra-comfy sweats, beautiful artisan fabrics, the crispest white bedding and a pile of books you’re dying to read. Switch on the slow cooker, and switch off your phone. Take the time to write proper thank-you letters, in glorious coloured inks. Wrap yourself in a distinctly divine perfume. It’s all about the slow burn – because what we really treasure is time, and the sheer joy of luxuriating in long days off, whether with our loved ones or alone. No fuss, no hassle, no rush.
