An entertaining and affectionate portrait of legendary actress Meryl Streep's work, exploring her trailblazing roles in film, her feminist activism, and the indelible mark she's left on pop culture.Meryl Streep is the most celebrated actress of our time. She's a chameleon who disappears fully into each character she plays. She never tackles the same role twice. Instead, she leverages her rarified platform to channel a range of tough, complicated women--Margaret Thatcher, Karen Silkwood, the Anna Wintour avatar Miranda Priestly--rather than limit herself to marginal roles for which other actresses must settle: Supportive Wife. Supportive Mother. Supportive Yet Utterly Disposable Love Interest to the Leading Man. Streep will have none of that.
The once-awkward, frizzy-haired suburban teen blossomed into a rising ing nue who quickly made a name on stage at Vassar College and the Yale School of Drama, where she pursued prestigious theater degrees. She came of age during the women's movement of the Sixties and Seventies, and has worn her activism on her sleeve even when it was unfashionable. When she reached 40, the age when many leading ladies in Hollywood fully transition to those "supportive" roles, Streep plunged forward, taking her pick of parts that interested her and winning a pile of awards along the way. She's broken records with 16 Oscar nominations, winning Best Actress twice for Sophie's Choice and The Iron Lady and Best Supporting Actress for Kramer vs. Kramer. Meanwhile, she remained an unlikely box-office draw, her clout even managing to grow with age: The Devil Wears Prada, starring Streep as a brilliant and sadistic magazine editrix, scored $125 million worldwide. Her next film, Mary Poppins Returns, with Emily Blunt and Lin Manuel Miranda, is poised for bigger success. Queen Meryl will pay tribute to the fearless icon, documenting all of her accents, Oscars, highs, lows, friendships, and feuds. It will also explore her "off-brand" forays into action-adventure (The River Wild) and musicals (Mamma Mia ), and how she managed to do a lot with a little, and sneak her feminism into each character. In the spirit of Notorious RBG and The Tao of Bill Murray, two bestsellers as nontraditional as Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Bill Murray, Queen Meryl will transmit joy in homage to its allegedly serious subject.

Super Soft, Cozy Throw
Size: 50"x70", Color: Berry Cheetah Pink
I got this blanket and the first thing I noticed was how incredibly soft it is, it has that smooth, plush feel that makes it really comfortable to use daily. The size is great for lounging on the couch or adding an extra layer on the bed without feeling bulky, and it gives good coverage for a throw blanket. Many versions of this style are around 50 x 70 inches, and medium weight which is ideal for everyday use.
It’s also easy to care for, I’ve washed it and it holds up well without losing softness or shape. The quality feels nice for the price and it still looks good after use. Overall, it’s one of those blankets you keep reaching for because it’s soft, practical, and low maintenance.

Super Soft and Adorably Stylish
Size: 50"x70", Color: Cherry Cakes Hot Pink
I recently got the Juicy Couture Kids Cherry Cakes Plush Throw Blanket, and it has quickly become a favorite. The blanket is incredibly soft, lightweight, and cozy, making it perfect for relaxing on the couch, adding extra warmth to a bed, or taking along for travel. The hot pink color and cute Cherry Cakes design are vibrant and fun, especially for kids who love colorful décor. Despite being lightweight, it provides plenty of warmth and comfort without feeling heavy. It also washes well and maintains its softness, which is always a plus. For the quality, comfort, and adorable design, this blanket is Highly Recommended.

Cute, soft, and large blanket!
Size: 50"x70", Color: Cherry Cakes Hot Pink, Size: 50"x70", Color: Cherry Cakes Hot Pink
Very cute and warm throw blanket! The blanket is super soft and has great weight to it. Sometimes these throw blankets with prints look weird on the “back” side but, this one’s print goes all the way through. Or sometimes it doesn’t feel as soft on the back side. But this blanket isn’t like that. This is a high quality blanket!
I also love the size of the blanket! It’s much larger than the standard throw so it’s perfect for someone who likes to get cozy on the couch!

Get this blanket!
Size: 50"x70", Color: Berry Cheetah Pink, Size: 50"x70", Color: Berry Cheetah Pink
This juicy blanket is such a nice quality! The softness is absolutely incredible the weight of the blanket isn’t light but isn’t super heavy. The pink is gorgeous my phone camera had a hard time actually getting the pink colors I think my second photo is the most it picked up but the entire blanket is pink I love the bows and the cherry’s and how it of course has the signature juicy on some of the cherrys. The material is super soft. I mean incredibly soft! It’s perfect. I know it says for kids but I’m an adult and I love it I’m 4’10 so it’s long enough to cover my whole body and keep me warm at night I also move to cuddle with it on my face or bring it to the couch to stay warm. I really love love love this juicy blanket and I highly recommend it it’s a great value for the quality you get.
