Why Your Winter Should Be Fuzzy as Hell

I love being cozy-it's probably the best feeling in the world. So when I noticed that all my favorite retail stores were filling up with a material called "teddy" fabric (named after a soft teddy bear, like, omg), I knew I needed to stock the f*ck up on everything. And, listen, I'm not here to tell you what to do, but, if you like to be all snuggly and warm in the winter (which, who doesn't?!?!) maybe you should get in on the action too?

Let's back up and understand how we got to this very important moment in fashion history. You may recall teddy fabric as the stuff that's used to make super fluffy winter socks:

Get you some of these socks, people!! They're awesome.

Or maybe you remember the Teddy coat-a cold-weather jacket that started popping up everywhere in 2016 and 2017 (BTW, that trend is still going strong).

You know you want in on this teddy coat situation.

But now you can find it in tons of other clothing-including (but not limited to!) loungewear, sweaters, sweatshirts, other kinds of jackets, shoes, and bags! FYI: Sometimes e-comm sites call the material by its "teddy" name, other times they call it "sherpa" or just plain "fuzzy"-but they're all talking about the same thing.

No matter what they're calling it, the sheer volume and variety of these ultra plush items is actually a dream come true. So...shop with me? Here's just a bunch of teddy stuff that I like and maybe you will like it also.

How do you feel about teddy tops?

What of these super soft shorts and pants?

Can I interest you in some plush sherpa bags?

How about some fluffy winter accessories?

Anything else?
