Since I was in elementary school I have been obsessed with fur. When all the other fourth graders were wearing their Northface jackets, I was strutting my school’s hallways in a miniature fake fur coat. Through the years, my obsession for fur has not waned, and while I continue to amass fur coats (my latest was a shaggy black and grey ombre one from H&M), this obsession has now translated into interiors as well – specifically cozy, luxurious fur throws on beds. Five years ago I bought a girlish pink version from Home Goods and during college I stole one of my mum’s for the end of my bed. While looking at one of my favourite blogs, The Aestate, yesterday, I came across designer Ryan Korban who, wouldn’t ya know it, shares my exact passion for fur throws on beds.
He even incorporates it into his pillows which is just like duh, why didn’t I think of that???

My ideal fur throw (parents, boyfriend, are you writing this down?) would be this World Market chocolate fur throw http://www.worldmarket.com/product/chocolate-faux-fur-throw.do?&from=fn ($59.99) or this pricier Z Gallerie version http://www.zgallerie.com/p-5050-zambia-throw-chocolate.aspx ($129.99). In my opinion, bedrooms should always be luxurious and welcoming, and a fur throw ticks both these boxes.
