This Is Not a Drill: The Internet’s ‘Softest’ Lola Blanket Is 50% (!!!) Off Right Now

Despite the fact that NYC’s current cold front is just about over (by tomorrow, the subway will feel like a communal sauna again), the weather has me in a cinnamon-scented delirium. All I can think about is hot coffee, crisp walks, and curling up under a warm blanket—even if I have to crank my AC down to 55 to make the latter happen. Write your own rules! Forge your own destiny! Irresponsibly overspend on your utility bill just to feel something!

My entire scheme (to transform my apartment into a pumpkin spice fortress of solitude) just got a wholeeee lot easier. Cult-fave blanket brand Lola Blankets (ya know, the one splashed all over your TikTok fyp) is having its biggest sale of the season. Now through Wednesday, August 27, you (and obvi, me) can get 50% off the entire site and free shipping. Each purchase also comes with a $50 gift card, so we can buy even more blankets once it’s actually (!) seasonally appropriate.

ICYMI (or, IDK, don’t average 20 hours a week of screen time), Lola throws have been dubbed “the internet’s softest blanket” for a reason. Each one is made from a plush and cruelty-free faux fur fabric (it feels luxe but is totally ethical!) with four-way stretch. They’re double-hemmed for extra durability and machine washable for convenience.

There are tons of colors and patterns, including everything from classic neutrals and solids to a pastel cosmic print, and the Original Lola Blanket has four size options: baby (30 X 36 inches), medium (50 X 60 inches), large (60 X 72 inches), and the Lola XL (80 X 90 inches). My fellow anxious girlies should check out the weighted versions and dog/cat owners need the pet style. Oh, and did I mention there are matching throw pillows???

You don’t have to take my word for it either. The reviews are sooo convincing. “[They’re] so soft and amazing!!” one shopper says. “These blankets are not a disappointment … They have truly helped me get better sleep and made me feel nice and cozy.”

“There is no other blanket on the market currently that even comes close to the softness that Lola provides,” another adds. “We own 7! High quality, excellent customer service as well.” Others commented that they’re the “perfect temperature” and “perfect size.”

If you need me I’ll be casually bobbing for apples and carving pumpkins (like a totally normal person would) as a weather manifestation tactic <3 Halloween decor is already on Amazon. It must be working!
