Target Is Selling the Coziest Holiday-Inspired Storage Gem from This 1800s-Era Brand

Like anyone who lives in a tiny apartment, I’m always on the hunt for smart storage solutions. While I’ve found great multifunctional furnishings for my bedroom and bathroom, I’ve struggled to find aesthetically pleasing two-in-one pieces for my small living room. The furniture that doubles up as storage is typically either bulky or ugly. Enter: the Woolrich x Target Windowpane Plaid Pattern Storage Ottoman, which could finally put an end to my hunt.

Woolrich, an American brand that was founded almost 200 years ago (in 1830!), collaborated with Target to launch a limited-edition collection of apparel, accessories, and home decor. This range includes the Windowpane Plaid Pattern Storage Ottoman available in three color combinations — green and black (my personal favorite), black and white, and red and black. 

The ottoman features a pine frame and polyester upholstery with a classic windowpane plaid pattern. The ottoman is a true square size (17″ x 17″ x 17″) and has a removable top. Unlike other storage ottomans I’ve looked at recently, it has a significant weight capacity of 250 pounds.

I love the design of the windowpane plaid pattern; it feels like a subtle nod to Woolrich’s iconic Buffalo check. It’s plainly holiday-colored, but doesn’t read as too seasonal — you won’t have to put the ottoman away at the end of December.

The ottoman is a great size to store throw pillows, extra blankets, and other knickknacks. It can serve as a footrest or as a comfortable seat for guests. I personally like all the colors it’s available in, but the red and black one would work well in my living room, as it would add a vibrant pop of color to my neutral palette. The green and black one would be great in my bedroom next to my dresser for storing accessories.
