\"women-smelling-clothes.jpg\"<\/a><\/span>Today is a rainy, bleak-weather day.  I’m tired after a long week.  I have things on my mind.  <\/p>\n

This is where comfort clothing comes in.  You know what I mean – that garment that you reach for when you need to feel hugged, snug, or just simply not “ug.”  Since I don’t have a Snuggie<\/a> (or a Slanket, for you 30 Rock fans), mine is a viscose\/cotton\/angora wrap sweater from Boden<\/a>.  It’s ultra-soft, the foamiest shade of deep blue you can imagine, and it feels heavenly against my skin with just a short-sleeved shirt on under it (in the summer–it’s light enough for year-round comfort).  <\/p>\n

Best of all, its tie-front design leaves these two soft tails that are perfect for futzing with, should I find myself stressed and in need of a built-in blankie.<\/p>\n

Alas, I can’t find my exact sweater on Boden’s website.  But I do see a very similar one on Athleta’s<\/a> site.  Theirs is an organic cotton\/bamboo blend. Yum-o.<\/p>\n

What’s your favorite piece of comfort clothing<\/b>?  What do you reach for when you need to wear a better mood?<\/p>\n
