Staying in is an art form. In a time with plenty of social pressure to attend birthday parties, pub hangouts, and Instagram-ready restaurants, sometimes it's more fun to spend a special night in the space you're already paying for. To stay in or not stay in? It's no longer such a big question. You can stay in extravagantly or simply; lusciously or lazily. The beauty is, it's up to you. Invite a friend, or don't. Make food, or have someone else do it for you. No matter how you work it out, at the end of the night there won't be anyone barking for last call unless it's you urging the dog to get off your lap. Here are a few categories to check off that will ensure when you stay in, you stay in like a boss.

Creature Comforts To Stay In For

• Love a cozy blanket? How about one meant to drape over your shoulders and has pockets?
• Don't want to move from one spot all night? No problem. This device lets you control anything that plugs in using your smartphone.
• A warm glow + a heavenly scent is its own form of therapy. Splurge on aromatic candles and breathe in relaxation when you stay in.
• Happy feet = happy you. Get a pair of slippers that turn any floor into a path of clouds and rainbows.

Food Is The Way To Your Own Heart

• If you're going to cook, don't complicate it. Throw everything in one of Bed, Bath & Beyond's slow cookers and let it do the hard work.
• Treat yourself to something special, like steak delivered right to your door. Go ahead, get four different cuts just for yourself.
• Get yourself a gift basket and tear it apart. How could you go wrong with hot chocolate and wine? (You can't.)

Outsource, Outsource, Outsource

• Got a mess? Get someone else to do the cleaning. Handy will send someone to clean your house so you can enjoy a clutter-free reprieve.
• Focus on you and you alone. If you have kids, hire a great babysitter, even if they're just hanging out with your mini-me in another room.
• Is your home a lost cause for relaxation? Spend a night or two in a new one. Great rental properties might be even better than home.

Let's All Go To The Movies (Without Leaving The House)

• Whether you're watching movies or playing games, treat yourself to a home theater sound experience that will make the moment count.
• If you love video games, get yourself a new one. There's nothing like starting a new game and having all night to get great at it.
• You want unlimited streaming possibilities? You got it. Amazon Fire TV will hook you up with crisp HD, shows, flicks, and games at the touch of a button.
