The Monday of all months, January, is here, and it feels never-ending. We’re all about keeping cosy to see through the rest of Winter, and we’ve chosen 6 pieces from Bellwoods to help us stay warm at home, at work, and when out and about.
1. Le Bon Shoppe Boyfriend Socks
The softest, most addictive socks that have become a wardrobe staple for the whole team. These calf length sports socks with ribbing details make the socks feel like they're hugging your feet. The Boyfriend socks are durable, comfortable and classic - they will keep your ankles warm, and feet cosy all year long.
One winter’s eve, in a little apartment in the Arts District of Los Angeles, Le Bon Shoppe was conceived over good food and conversation between old friends. The core reason for creating Le Bon Shoppe was and still is to create those everyday pieces that seem so simple and easy to wear but are hard to find. The pieces that compel you to choose them over and over again. The pieces that you want in every colour. The pieces that never go out of style. We’re definitely part of the Le Bon Shoppe Fan Club.
2. Hobo and Co Himalayan Mineral Bath Salts
We love a bath at any time of the day, and a bath in winter is a pure luxury. We always use these Pink Bath Salts, which contain a de-stressing and therapeutic blend of mineral rich pink Himalayan and Dead Sea salts infused with pure essential oils. They’re crafted by hand by Hobo and Co, and the glass bottle looks so pretty in the bathroom. Simply add a couple of small handfuls of salts to warm running water and relax.
3. Arctic Fox and Co Merino Wool Beanie
Bellwoods Lifestyle Store is on the North East coast, which means one thing : cold wind. The Merino Wool Beanie is our seasonal staple for keeping our heads warm, and hair in place. The unisex hat is made from 100% Swedish high welfare Merino wool, and you will want to return to it year after year.
Arctic Fox and Co are a carbon neutral company, dedicated to quality products that are manufactured ethically and sustainably. The brand combines staple, sustainable accessories that provide unwavering warmth and comfort even in the coldest of temperatures.
4. Ore Mi Coco Butter and Amber Candle
Candles are the perfect cosy companion. Light a candle in the dark mornings and the dusky evenings to instantly bring a cosy feeling to your home. The Coco Butter & Amber Candle is rich and sweet, with dark chocolate like aromas. It also has notes of warm Moroccan amber enriched by spicy cinnamon. Our senses are powerful; and through the ritual of lighting a candle or exploring new scents, we can transform our space and immediately alter the way we feel. The mini candle is perfect for the bed side table or a small space that needs a deep, warm scent.
Oré mi - an expression which means my friend in Yoruba - is an independent wellbeing brand founded in 2019. They create handmade lifestyle products with luxurious, lasting scents. Each one is made in London, inspired by Nigerian heritage.
5. Sophie Home Ilo Cotton Knit Throw
This wouldn’t be a cosy Winter list without the addition of a Sophie Home blanket. This soft, cotton knit throw is perfect for getting cosy indoors. All the colours and shapes come together in this bold, statement piece. Open or folded it adds an exciting splash of abstract colour to your room. Cosy up on your sofa, or use it as an extra layer on your bed for cold nights.

6. Black + Blum Insulated Travel Cup
This Insulated Travel Cup is crafted from stainless steel, which will keep your favourite home brew or coffee shop roast hot for 5 hours. Perfect for commutes on cold days, winter beach walks, or a hot afternoon cuppa at work. The top is 100% leakproof, lockable and built to last you a lifetime.
