I don’t know about you, but as soon as winter hits, finding the warmest blankets for my home is my greatest priority. When I'm forced to brave the Baltic conditions, I layer up in my fleece-lined leggings, thermal socks, and winter gloves — so snuggling up under a great blanket is the obvious inside alternative.

While we've all undoubtedly got a fair few trusty yet tatty blankets to our names, there's nothing better than finding a blanket or throw that's just as cute as it is cosy. As long as you drape it well, an aesthetic blanket or throw doesn't ever have to be put away — as it'll double up as a lovely decorative addition to the arm of your sofa, or the foot of your bed.

From chunky knit throws and faux fur bedspreads, to super-soft wool and cashmere blankets, these extra layers of luxury will see you through plenty of icy mornings and frosty afternoons to come. And if — like me — you avoid touching the thermostat at all costs, then any guests will definitely thank you.
