Soft Surroundings Hug-Me Cardi and Wine Bottle Stoles Review: Holiday Must-Haves

Being cozy is a fashion staple during this time of the year.  Yes, it’s glamorous to wear backless sweaters and knee boots but being warm is more important.

Soft Surroundings is the perfect shopping destination for luxury and comfort.  The name alone speaks volumes and has something for everyone on your holiday list!

At home, I am known for being chilly and wearing a full robe.  In the midst of putting up my Christmas tree and running errands, I opted for my Hug-Me Cardi.  Let’s start by saying my life revolves around this fur jacket.

I watch movies in this jacket.  I go to the grocery store in this jacket.  I bake holiday treats in this jacket.  I have a glass of merlot in this jacket.

Aside from the Hug-Me Cardi being ultra soft, it has very easy, readable care instructions. Simply machine wash on cold and tumble dry.  It’s not like most fur jackets that loose shape and form.

To find and purchase the Hug-Me Cardi or Wine Bottle Stoles, visit your local Soft Surroundings or shop online.
