The temperature has dropped and it's time to get cozy. We know there are only four seasons to pick from, but fall is one of our faves. Sure, breaking out the chili recipe and drinking hot chocolate at the kids' outdoor sports games are a couple key reasons, but we also love the look of autumn, and all of its plaids and earth tones and hearty textures. We've surveyed the Ravishing Rooms team to share the styles that everyone is crushing on this fall. Take a look and let us know if we can help you create these looks in your home!
Welcome back, plaid! Of course, we can't talk about fall style trends without saying hello to plaids. It's practically the official pattern of the season and we couldn't be happier to welcome its return. This year, we're putting it outside to warm up patios and front porches. It's a versatile design that's at home where ever you need a seasonal style statement.

Incorporating it with reserve is a great way to create a chic seasonal look. Image: PotteryBarn.com Unexpected arrangements We're heading into the season of accessorizing. And this year, we love arrangements that aren't in traditional tones. Think about skipping the usual colors and keeping things simple with seasonal items in neutral hues. It's a fresh take on the festive look.

Summer should be a time to slow down and enjoy the sunshine. But let's be honest, it often feels like the busiest time of the year — and that's why we're loving bright and calming spaces. The simplicity of a visually undemanding space, seems to take things off the mind, instead of adding to it. But don’t get us wrong, simple isn’t code for boring. There are many ways to make a light and airy room as interesting as it is easy going. We recently came across this My Domaine tour of Ali Fedotowsky’s home and it’s the perfect example of light and stylish. What a bright and airy home lacks in color it makes up for in textures. A variety of materials - from woods to woven - will keep the eye engaged but not overly busy. Add natural interest with eye-catching plants and greenery. They fit right in without demanding a spotlight. Keep color stories low-key, We’re not saying keep color out - just be picky and keep it to one or two color families per room. Go ahead and create a little drama. Neutral statement pieces add interest without interrupting the natural serenity of the space.
