It is officially fall, which means my favorite season of staying home and not feeling one bit guilty about it. I am not talking pumpkins on every surface or decorations you will be packing away in two weeks. I am talking rich colors, cozy textures, good bedding and a few small upgrades that make the house feel like fall without screaming FALL.
Here are the seven things I would add first.

01 A Rust Velvet Fringe Pillow
Fall is all about layering, and the fastest way to warm up a couch is one deep, rich color. Rust velvet with a little fringe says fall without a single pumpkin. I like a pair on the ends and something quieter in the middle.
02 A Chunky Basketweave Throw
Every couch needs a blanket you can grab the second you sit down. This natural basketweave from Parachute has the texture I want in October, and it looks good folded over the arm of a chair when guests come.
03 A Forest Green Linen Duvet Cover
Deep, earthy green makes a bedroom feel like a hug. Linen gets softer every wash, and the wrinkles are the whole point. Pair it with cream sheets and you are done.
04 Scalloped Plates for the Table
You do not need a new dinnerware set. Mix a few pretty scalloped plates in with your everyday white and a Tuesday night cheese board feels like a dinner party.
05 Brass-Look Taper Candle Holders
Candlelight at 5pm when it is already getting dark is my favorite part of fall. A pair of ceramic and brass holders on the mantel or a side table is all it takes.
06 A Mug Warmer Set
If you are like me, your coffee goes cold the minute the phone rings. A mug warmer keeps it hot while you finish the email, or the chapter.
07 Chunky Knit Slippers
Cold floors are the one thing about old houses I do not love. These chunky cable knit slippers live by my front door from now until April.
