What is this curious object called a pouf? Is it an ottoman, additional seating, a pet bed, just decoration? I mean, do we rely need to categorize it? It comes in all shapes and sizes, all colors and fabrications; it’s fabulous and functional, and I say, everyone should have one 🙂

Here are a few of my picks.

The metallic leather of this pouf makes it so versatile, think formal living room, romantic bedroom, or ultra chic walk-in closet (you know, because we all have ginormous dressing rooms in our homes, haha)
