Looks-maxxing this, protein-maxxing that. Now that fall is upon us, I have a new addition to the chronically online lexicon: cozy-maxxing. Because when this California girl detects sub-50-degree temperatures, it’s throw blankets, throw pillows, and couch time. STAT.

But how cliché! I’m going hard on soft, tactile textures. Bullion fringe hanging from every handle, velvet Pottery Barn picture frames dotting the credenza, and a boatload of bouclé where you'd least expect it. The colorful kind, like Rowena Interiors’ terracotta ottoman, because, as we’ve learned from designers, this formerly 'cheugy' upholstery is having something of a renaissance and colorful bouclé is everywhere.

And since we're , the lighting is getting bundled up, too. In the details, we'd usually put on a curtain, or even a skirt, like Lulu and Georgia’s Curato Sconce, clad in generously tailored cotton. Cordless lamps from the likes of Pooky will accompany me from the kitchen counter, where I prepare a cozy snack of chai tea and peanut butter-stuffed dates, to the Katie Kime tapestry-printed tray atop my impossibly cloudlike Coyuchi Down Duvet, where an ergonomic, headboard-shaped wedge pillow awaits. To my right, Trudon's woody, oud-forward, dessert-inspired Altaïr Candle flickers; to my left, an even richer, rounder Beetroot Candle from Loewe. All of this, swaddled in an après-ski-style Bubble Cuddle Blanket, obviously.

A cozy living room is one thing. But these 28 finds take cozy-maxxing well beyond the couch.
