Ever since Molly-Mae (bless her influencer heart) flaunted her Hermes blanket, the hunt for a decent dupe has been ON. And listen, the real Avalon throw is legit iconic – that “H” screams luxury, and that cashmere blend? *chef’s kiss*. But seriously, that price tag is straight-up criminal.
So, where do we find these magical Hermes pillow look-alikes? Amazon, duh! Where else? They’re practically overflowing with ’em. You’ll find ones sporting that grid pattern, you know the one. And the best part? They come in, like, a rainbow of colors. Grey, khaki, brown, black, orange, navy blue… something for everyone’s living room, right?
Now, I’m not gonna lie, finding a *perfect* dupe is tough. The real deal is cashmere, pure cashmere. A lot of these dupes… well, let’s just say they’re not exactly breaking the bank on the material front. But hey, for the price, they can definitely give you that *aesthetic* without the actual pain of selling a kidney. You gotta weigh your options. Do you care about the *feel* or just the *look*?
I saw one that looked pretty darn close – The Styled Collection, apparently. They even claim to use cashmere! I’m skeptical, of course, but it’s worth a look, right?
Honestly, though, even if it’s not *identical*, who’s gonna know? Unless you’re having a bunch of Hermes connoisseurs over for tea, you’re probably safe. I mean, let’s be real, most people are too busy looking at their phones to scrutinize your throw pillows anyway.
And okay, maybe it’s not *exactly* the same. Maybe the stitching isn’t *quite* as perfect, or the “H” is a *little* wonky. But for a fraction of the price, you can still feel like you’re living that luxury lifestyle, even if it’s just a little bit of a lie. And hey, isn’t that what Instagram’s all about anyway? Fake it ’til you make it, baby! (Or at least until you win the lottery and can actually afford the real thing.) Just sayin’. Don’t @ me.
