Michelle Pfeiffer makes her living room cozy with a surprisingly affordable, warming accessory
One piece transforms Michelle Pfeiffer's anti-trend living room into an ultra-comfy, tranquil oasis – and can't believe how affordable it is
We've long admired Michelle Pfeiffer's sleek and neutral anti-trend living room. However, the cool, timeless scheme doesn't hold the actress back from keeping the space comfortable; Pfeiffer's extra chunky pink throw blanket epitomizes cozy style.
A recent Instagram post reveals that her Saturday morning routine involves curling up on the sofa with the iconic throw blanket. For her dream living room accessory, Pfieffer has selected a wide-knit pink blanket. It instantly transforms her space from a simple, clean-lined room into a tranquil oasis. It's not just a decor piece but a bold lifestyle accessory.
'Soft furnishings are the perfect way to add texture to any space,' says Jennifer Ebert, interior design expert and digital editor at Homes & Gardens. She continues, 'Throw blankets are a great option because not only do they look beautiful, but they can elevate the way you use your space, for instance, making it much more likely you will want to spend time on your sofa. We can certainly see this in Pfeiffer's space.'

Furthermore, the chunky blanket itself is an ever-growing interior design trend. Ebert says, 'Extra chunky knit blankets started becoming popular in about 2023. The look is especially effective because they instantly bring a very bold texture into any room, making them a beautiful complement to more find knits on sofa fabrics and against other bedding. The contemporary look brings a sense of whimsy to any space where it is used.'
Emulate Michelle Pfieffer's exact look with a pink chunky knit blanket. Its luxurious weight, breathable material, and fun, oversized look make it the perfect complement to any living room. Though it looks like Pfeiffer's blanket may be made out of wool, this polyester version is more affordable and better for those with allergies.
Shop H&G's Favorite Chunky Knit Blankets
Pink might not be the right color for your space, but that doesn't mean you can't participate in Michelle Pfieffer's chunky blanket living room trend. Amazon has endless options. We love this white chenille blanket for its extra fluffy texture. Our editors chose the beige blanket for its alternating square pattern, bringing in a more design-conscious feel to your space. Finally, the third blanket is a more classic cable knit, offering a timeless knit that is chunky, but not too chunky, for someone who prefers a traditional look.
Michelle Pfeiffer's chunky knit throw is just one example of how to add texture and warmth to your cozy living room. By incorporating a variety of soft furnishings, like decorative pillows, blankets, and curtains, it's easy to recreate her look. Building a tranquil space has never been more affordable.
