Did you know we spend nearly a third of our lives in bed – so to me, my bed is my personal sanctuary, one I like to pay special attention to.
So, I am always trying different luxury bedding brands – to see which work best for me.
I like elegant, classy and very well-made bedding. I like my blankets to have a smooth texture, be wonderfully soft to touch, comfortable, cozy and incredibly warm.
Over the years I’ve found what makes a good blanket or any other luxury bedding item good – simply comes down to the raw materials used.
The better the raw materials, surely higher the price, but also higher the comfort and longer the utility. So, I now treat luxury bedding like an investment. Something I can snug into every day, and something which keeps going strong for decades if not more.
So, I may spend more today, but over the years the investment more than pays off, and I get to sleep like a queen every night! 😉
I only like it if a luxury bedding brand has exclusive artful designs, the ones you can’t find anywhere else. This is one I’m just in love with from JG Switzer luxury blanket – can’t wait to get it next!!
Cashmere Throws fit for a Royal!
I love a good cashmere throw – and I’m in love with these cashmere throws from JG Switzer!!
Cashmere is well known as the most luxurious & expensive wool. It’s famous for its durability and longevity. It is incredibly soft and lightweight. Amongst any other luxury wool, cashmere is known to be the softest and finest.
I got the Hollywood Ava blanket from this list. What I love about the blanket beyond how it looks and feels of course (which I’m in love with) – is that they’re a blend of cashmere and lambswool.
This I think only adds to the goodness – by keeping the price as competitive as possible, as far as cashmere blankets go. I’ve had a cashmere blanket which was over $2000 – compared to which this one is a steal!
I think these blankets are milled in England, at one of the oldest operating mills in the world. If I remember correctly this mill also supplies to Windsor Castle! Who knows – maybe the queen and me are using a similar cashmere blanket! 😊
