If you’re looking to redesign your living room but your wallet still hasn’t quite recovered from January, look no further than the humble cushion.
You may have been eying up a new sofa or even hoping to rip up the floors, re-do the wallpaper and revamp the whole space… But until you can actually splash the cash and fund your living area looking like those hundreds of tabs you’ve saved on Instagram and Pinterest, a cushion could make all the difference. Particularly this chenille burgundy checked quilted one by none other than M&S.
M&S has already won us over with Percy Pigs, Colin the Caterpillars and pistachio crème dippers, but have you really entered adulthood if you haven’t discovered its clothing or home ranges too? And should you find yourself near an outlet version of the store? Well, run, don’t walk.
And there’s certainly no time to waste when it comes to M&S’ new quilted cushion which looks like something straight out of Soho House - but without the price tag to match.
While it may initially trick your eyes into thinking you’ve just sat down for a test at the opticians, the optically distorted pattern of the cushion’s cover comes in a luxurious-looking material and colourway.
The bold burgundy checkerboard pattern serves to update and modernise even the most run-down and scuffed of sofas. However, the on-trend earthy and neutral colourways on offer help ensure the feng shui of your room isn’t completely thrown into a fluster where nothing else matches.
The versatile cushion has a textured look and feel, made from soft chenille fabric with a quilted design and measures 50x50cm - a neat addition to even the smallest of spaces.
And as if being aesthetically gorgeous wasn’t enough already, the cushion has a removable cover which is machine washable at 40 degrees and can also be tumble dried on a low temperature *sighs in saved dry cleaning fees*.
For £25, the cushion is the easiest on-trend way to elevate your sofa and nail luxury for less.
And don’t just take our word for it.
M&S shoppers are raving about the find, with one buyer writing: “Love this cushion. Rather chic I think.”
“Love it very nice cushion and it’s padded great colour perfect,” another added.
A third reviewed: “I absolutely love these cushions! They are so stylish and good quality.”
So ‘chic’ is the cushion, it’s even soared to spot number two on the outlet’s best seller list home furnishings list. And if you want one, you’ll have to be quick as both the ‘Natural Mix’ and ‘Green Mix’ are out of stock online. If you had your eye on the ‘Rust Mix,’ M&S reports there have even been 42 cushions sold in the last five days.
So grab your shopping bags, arm yourself with a basket or two and get yourself down to your local M&S.
