Get Cozy With Me!

Whoo! I love a good, soft blanket. Something to curl up in. And I got a really cozy one. This came from my partnership with Influenster.

*Disclaimer: I was sent this blanket in exchange for trying it out and writing reviews for it. I was not otherwise paid or endorsed. All opinions are my own.*

So, before we talk about this blanket, let me tell you a little story. I used to have bedding sets. Comforter, sheets, and maybe even a bedskirt. You know the kinds, right? Comes in a bag at your local Walmart. Then I met the love of my life. While I'm shivering, his internal heater keeps him warm. During the summer - too warm. He didn't like comforters. And didn't care for having flat sheets either. Said he would get too hot under all those layers. Didn't take long before I gave up having them. They ended up on my side of the bed at night while he used just an oversized throw for a blanket. This started to get annoying. So I got rid of the comforters and flat sheets. Since then, our bed now keeps just a throw each. Although there have been times when I have piled up to three on my side...

I was so excited to try this one out. I love the deep blue color. It even has an intricate pattern that you can see when the light hits it just right. And talk about so soft! I am looking forward to days of curling up on the couch with it and a great book.  

There is one other thing I love about this blanket. Sometimes, I will curl up on the couch, which is up against a wall. From the doorway entrance of the living room, you can't see me. Because of this, there has been times when the kids look for me for a while before they realize where I am. I think of it as a game. With this deep blue velvety blanket, I might just take the game up a notch!  I call it activating Camouflage Mode! 

If you are looking to find one of your own, I found them on the Macy's website. The tag that came on my blanket says it is 50x70" while the website says 50x60", but the original price of $30 is the same. Except that at the time I am writing this, Macy's has them on sale for $12.99.
