The arm portions are contoured to follow the contour of the seat and back portions, are connected between the seat portion and back portion, and are constructed so that the chair provides support for a user in a seated upright position without the need for an internal frame structure. The arm portions are configured to extend outward when the chair is not in use to give the appearance of the figure inviting the user to sit in the chair. The arms can be wrapped around the user when in the chair and are wide enough to cover a substantial portion of the user so as to serve as a blanket or cover.
