We've long admired Michelle Pfeiffer's sleek and neutral anti-trend living room. However, the cool, timeless scheme doesn't hold the actress back from keeping the space comfortable; Pfeiffer's extra chunky pink throw blanket epitomizes cozy style.
A recent Instagram post reveals that her Saturday morning routine involves curling up on the sofa with the iconic throw blanket. For her dream living room accessory, Pfieffer has selected a wide-knit pink blanket. It instantly transforms her space from a simple, clean-lined room into a tranquil oasis. It's not just a decor piece but a bold lifestyle accessory.
'Soft furnishings are the perfect way to add texture to any space,' says Jennifer Ebert, interior design expert and digital editor at Homes & Gardens. She continues, 'Throw blankets are a great option because not only do they look beautiful, but they can elevate the way you use your space, for instance, making it much more likely you will want to spend time on your sofa. We can certainly see this in Pfeiffer's space.'
Furthermore, the chunky blanket itself is an ever-growing interior design trend. Ebert says, 'Extra chunky knit blankets started becoming popular in about 2023. The look is especially effective because they instantly bring a very bold texture into any room, making them a beautiful complement to more find knits on sofa fabrics and against other bedding. The contemporary look brings a sense of whimsy to any space where it is used.'
Emulate Michelle Pfieffer's exact look with a pink chunky knit blanket. Its luxurious weight, breathable material, and fun, oversized look make it the perfect complement to any living room. Though it looks like Pfeiffer's blanket may be made out of wool, this polyester version is more affordable and better for those with allergies.
