The Boyfriend Throw So Haute-2

You know the perfect pair of boyfriend jeans or the comfy boyfriend sweater that you love so much and just want to wear every day? Well, I’ve found it’s decorating equivalent and I’ve dubbed it The Boyfriend Throw! It’s super soft and warm, relaxed, a little bit oversized, perfectly broken in and so cozy you can’t help but want to cuddle up with it all the time. Kind of like a boyfriend, it’ll even keep you warm at night:-) I’m on the hunt for the perfect boyfriend throw. Actually, I have one. It’s boiled wool with a reversible abstract floral pattern and I picked it up at the ABC Carpet & Home outlet in the Bronx several years ago. The problem is, since I redecorated, it no longer matches my decor so I have no choice but to break up with it and find myself a handsome new boyfriend throw to curl up with at night! Since I use it so much and really value this piece, I’m totally willing to splurge a little and I’ve got my eye on this fuschia mohair throw from Serena & Lily. I’m all about bold color these days. The weather is getting cold so if you don’t already have one to keep you warm, you need a boyfriend throw in your life! I’ve rounded up 12 of my top picks below plus tips on how to style it in your home. I’ve also highlighted my fave – which one are you loving most?
