This “Unbelievably Soft” Blanket Is the Only One I'll Ever Need
I am a self-proclaimed “blanket queen.” During the fall months, you’ll find me basically living beneath a good throw or blanket. I have a very large and ever-growing collection of seasonal ones that I like to have handy whenever the moment calls for a little extra coziness. While I’ve racked up quite a few favorites over time, lately there’s just one blanket that I keep reaching for again and again because it’s too good to resist — the viral Lola blanket.
For years I’ve seen people rave about them all over social media, and now that I have my own, I can report that these blankets are truly perfection. I’ve been obsessed with mine since the day I first wrapped it around me. It’s so good, in fact, that whenever my friends get their hands on it while visiting, they want to take it home. Sorry, while I won’t share mine, I will tell you why this is the best fall blanket I’ve ever owned and why I can’t wait to buy more.
Why the Lola blanket is the only one you’ll ever need.
The Lola blanket is the most well-rounded blanket ever. It’s a double-sided, faux fur dream that’s unbelievably soft and warm. When I use it, I feel like I’m floating inside a cloud of pure goodness. The blanket is as thick and durable as it is soft and stretchy, which makes it the perfect cozy escape from the late fall or early winter chill. It feels so plush and luxurious to the touch — and it’s now a staple in my home for all fall couch activities.

Not only is the Lola blanket easy to love, but it’s easy to care for, too. Created from 100% vegan and cruelty-free polyester and a handcrafted dyeing process, each blanket is machine-washable (just use cold water, skip fabric softener, and hang dry it), stain resistant, and zero shedding. I repeat: zero shedding!
Lola blankets also come in a wide variety of colors, which makes it easy to find one you love for any room in your home. Their new fall collection is filled with a lush selection of rich seasonal rust, copper and tan hues, like Stardust, Mars Rover, and Cosmic Sands. You can choose from a large, medium, or baby size for every style. I have a medium size (50×60 inches), which is perfect for me and for cuddling with my husband on movie date nights. For larger coverage, I’d recommend going with the largest size (60×72 inches).
I’ve had mine — in Latte Check — for almost a year now, and it still looks and feels like new. (The Latte Check was part of a collab and is sold out in almost all the sizes, but you can’t go wrong with any of the other colorways and prints.) When I’m not prying my friends’ hands off my Lola blanket, I’m trying to pry it away from my husband and our dogs. Everyone wants a piece of this amazing blanket, and honestly, I can’t blame them.
The brand also has a really sweet origin story. The blankets are inspired by the founder’s late family matriarch “Lola,” who found comfort in faux fur blankets while battling breast cancer and would often gift each of her children blankets as self-care.
If you can only buy one new blanket this fall, and you’re looking to splurge on a cozy staple, this is the one — I’ll never need another. To me, it is the most comfortable blanket on Earth and every time I use it, it feels like I’m treating myself to something special. Buy it now, thank me later.
