Let’s face it. These are some seriously crazy times. Which is why, some mornings, the thought of pulling the covers over our heads and going back to sleep seems like the only sane option.
The point being: If we’re going to spend at least a third of our lives in bed, how can we make it as nurturing as possible? I turned to Katherine Nicholson, a marketing specialist for high-end linen company Peacock Alley, for insight.
“Climbing into bed should feel like a giant hug,” she said.
“Great bedding makes for a great night’s sleep. Instead of thinking of luxury bedding as an indulgence, think of it as self-care and an investment in you.”
So go ahead. Hit the snooze button. While swoon-worthy linens won’t change the world, they will make waking up considerably more comfortable.
Peacock Alley Soprano Sheeting
One touch and you’ll know why these super soft, Italian cotton sateen sheets are a company best-seller, according to Katherine. A tighter weave make them the ideal choice for colder weather months.
Four Seasons Bedding Collection
Imagine falling into a freshly-made bed at a posh resort. These 100 percent Supima cotton linens recreate the vibe at home. Everything about this hotel-quality collection screams luxury—including the recognizable Four Seasons logo on the pillow shams.
Versace Le Jardin Bedspread
Add iconic Italian style to your bedroom with this supremely chic, garden-inspired silk bedspread. Want even more fashion? Check out the complementary Versace Home sheeting, pillows, bathrobes and slippers.
Increased Orbit “Grateful” Pillowslip
This monogrammed, pure mulberry silk pillowcase will inspire you to go to bed and wake up with gratitude. An added bonus: skin and hair will look amazing in the morning. It also makes a thoughtful gift for those you’re most grateful for.
Sunday Citizen Weighted Blanket
Along with all the usual sleep-enhancing, anxiety-easing benefits of a weighted blanket, this one from Sunday Citizen is filled with thousands of tiny crystals. Clear quartz sports natural healing perks, while amethyst relieves stress and lends a little extra calm.
Bella Notte Quilted Coverlet
Made of lush silk velvet, this sumptuous coverlet enchants the senses with its plush hand. Choose from an array of garment-dyed shades—think Cloud (above), Eucalyptus, Rouge, Jade, Sterling, plus a dozen utterly romantic more.
Kumi Kookoon Cashmere Throw
The epitome of elegance: soft, fine cashmere backed with sensuous silk charmeuse. While the king-size version will set you back a cool four grand, this covet-worthy throw is the ultimate reward for surviving a pandemic.
Charlotte Thomas Bespoke Sheeting
This one bills itself as the “most expensive bed sheet ever,” featuring 22-carat gold woven directly into Merino wool fabric. All this opulence doesn’t come cheap—or fast. Custom orders for these $2400 bespoke beauties takes 12 weeks.
Peacock Alley Beachy Hues
It’s next best thing to an authentic ocean breeze. This reversible Peacock Alley linen duvet will have you dreaming of your very own beachfront paradise.
The bottom line? “Sleep affects just about every corner of our life and is not to be taken lightly,” says Katherine. “Luxury bedding makes all the difference. Wake up rested and refreshed, ready to be your best.”
