Editor’s Picks: The Comfort Zone

I’ll admit that I’m not winter’s biggest fan. However, I do enjoy shielding myself from freezing temperatures … preferably in the confines of the family room in my house—lounging on the couch with my two adorable cats (and husband), watching television with the fireplace burning in the background (very Currier and Ives, right?).

Whether I’m wearing my comfy robe, buried underneath layers upon layers of fleece blankets, or both, it doesn’t get much better than that. I know I’m not alone. Have you ever heard anyone say, “I hate feeling comfortable”? I dare you to say: “Why, yes, I have.”

Fall will soon turn into winter and we eventually will hear more weather reports predicting six inches of snow (hey, I live in the Philadelphia region and that’s enough for me). So think of your clients shivering in their homes, without a blanket or decent pair of flannel pajamas in sight. You can prevent this sad scenario—especially for those living in Minnesota or Buffalo.

Show them some of the comfort and sleepwear styles below.

Blanketed in Color
Our favorite day at camp was tie-dye day. Our one complaint? The stained tie-dye hands that seemed to last all summer.

The polar fleece 220 gsm blanket measures 50×60” and comes in green, orange, pink, red or royal.
