In recent years, a cozy trend has taken the world by storm, revolutionizing the way we snuggle up at home. Enter the Oodie, the ultimate wearable blanket that has captured the hearts and wardrobes of many, well it certainly did for me!
The photo on the left, from my facebook feeds with the comment "We just can't function," made me laugh a lot because it was really like me at the moment, in my oodie in 'cold' Sydney!
Well, what is an OODIE?
What is an Oodie? Imagine wrapping yourself in a cloud-like blanket that covers your entire body, complete with a comfortable hood to keep your head warm. That's precisely what an Oodie is.
It is an oversized, hooded blanket made from soft, warm, and often fluffy material. It also has a huge pocket for your snacks and hands.
The Oodie's generous size ensures that it provides full coverage, allowing you to snuggle up and stay cozy all day long.
The Popularity of Oodies:
The rise in popularity of Oodies can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, comfort is at the forefront of modern living, and the Oodie delivers just that. For me, even thinking of what I need to wear in the cold morning can be a bit of an effort at times. Especially on weekends and if it's cold, I don't want to come out of my bed and don't want to move. lol. Then simply putting the Oodie over my head just resolves the problem!
Its soft and plush fabric creates a feeling of luxury, making it the perfect companion for relaxation and unwinding. Additionally, its versatility allows it to be used in various settings, whether you're watching movies, reading a book, or simply lounging around the house.
Oodies are also very practical and easy to care for. They're machine washable and dryer friendly, so you don't have to worry about them getting dirty or losing their softness. They're also very durable and well-made, so they'll last you for a long time. And they're not just for winter, either. You can wear them all year round, whenever you need some extra warmth and comfort.
My Savior During Sydney Lockdown
When we were in lockdown, my Oodie actually became my best friend. Because you are not going out anywhere, you don't have to worry about looking good or putting different clothes on every day. However, when the weather is cold, you still have to wear many layers. So, for me, Oodie was like a savior, effortlessly solving the wardrobe dilemma! Its versatile design eliminates the need for multiple layers or struggling to find the perfect loungewear ensemble. With an Oodie, you can simply slip it on, and you're instantly enveloped in warmth and style.
The Perfect Gift In Winter:
I was actually given this Oodie as a present. I never knew that I would fall in love with it like this. In fact, until I got it, I didn't even know that it existed. Now look at me, writing a blog post about it. haha!
If you're looking for a gift idea for someone special, or just want to treat yourself, I highly recommend getting an Oodie. Especially when we are going into cold winter like this.
