Happy Friday, Friends! As we officially settle into the fall season, I continue to be inspired by all of the beautiful fashion and home decor. For this Friday, I’ve gathered a list of some of my most recent favorite fall finds to share with you!

It’s the perfect time to start purchasing items that will help you transition your wardrobe to be winter ready. Long-sleeved turtlenecks, like this cocoa Dudley Stephens shirt or this brown-striped turtleneck, are comfortable and chic. They also make the perfect layering pieces as the days continue getting colder. A good button down cardigan is another great option to add layers to your fall fits.

Dress up a pair of denim pants with this floral print blouse, layer it with this super soft v-neck rib-knit sweater vest, and pair your outfit with these leather margaret mules, and you’ll be ready for a day running errands, a get-together with friends, or working from home. You can keep yourself extra warm with this camel marant shirt jacket which is a great neutral item that goes with just about anything in your wardrobe.

When it comes to items for your home, this miramar fringed chair and this yarmouth rattan swivel chair are two of my most favorite finds which are sure to add a touch of elegant texture to your space. Pair them with this wicker seadrift side table to bring in a little extra warmth and even more texture.

This cream francie rug is made by hand and would be a gorgeous addition if you’re needing to update the rugs in your home. I also love this hillsborough hand-knotted rug, which is perfect for an outdoor porch or an indoor room needing a little extra spice. I have the hillsborough rug as a runner in my kitchen, and it’s very durable and adds character to my kitchen. This scalloped blue jute rug is another beautiful piece to use as an entrance mat at your front door.

Another one of my favorite finds for the kitchen is this 12-piece bamboo melamine dinnerware set. The bamboo rim adds an elevated look to this set, and they’re perfect for both indoor and outdoor dining. I also love these island wrapped stemless wine glasses which add a bohemian vibe to morning mimosas or afternoon teas.

I love immersing myself in the fall season and I always find such great inspiration for both my home and my wardrobe during this time of year. If you need more inspiration this fall, check out more of my Fall Favorites as well as my Fall Bar Cart blog post.

Our son Henry’s bedroom was ready for an update! As he enters into his pre-teen years, I felt like he needed a more grown-up space that he can grow into and that would reflect his personality. My goal was to create a bedroom that felt masculine, yet relaxed and comfortable. Since I love classic and traditional interiors with a fresh approach, I worked with Serena and Lily to create the perfect room for him!

We had recently purchased this headboard for him from Serena and Lily, but he lacked nightstands and his room just didn’t feel complete. When looking for the perfect nightstands to fill his space, I wanted to bring in more texture and warmer tones to set his room apart from his little brother’s. So, when I saw the balboa nightstands from Serena and Lily I knew they would be the perfect fit for Henry’s room. The rattan adds texture and dimension and really warms up the space. I also loved that he would have a drawer to hold his personal belongings as well as a shelf below to stack books and other items. The top of the nightstands also provides ample space for lighting , a glass of water, or other necessary items.

As much as I love blue and white, I chose to bring in warmer tones to give Henry’s updated room a more masculine and grown-up feel and I wanted to set his room apart from his younger brother’s space. I fell in love with the Hyannis Duvet Cover and matching euro shams, and selected them in the Mink color. The traditional gingham looks great against the headboard and grasscloth wallpaper on his walls (similar paper here) creating a classic look.

We had previously purchased this Montara mirror from Serena and Lily, so, to add my finishing touch, I hung it above his desk creating a clean and timeless space for studying.

I love working with Serena and Lily because the quality of their products lasts a lifetime. And, as a decorator, I’ve found that it’s so important to purchase quality furnishings that will stand the test of time … and rough, little boys! I also love a casually elegant room, even for pre-teen, and Serena and Lily’s style evokes just that: casual elegance.

Now, Henry’s room has a timeless and classic feel perfect for a young man, and I am so thankful to have been able to work with Serena and Lily to achieve this for him!

Halloween is one of mine (and my kid’s) favorite times of the year to have some fun! While we gear up for chillier weather and trick or treating, the adults are stocking the bar and the children are setting up Halloween decorations. It’s time to revel in the autumn air and enjoy the sweater weather before winter hits.

Besides dressing up in their Halloween costumes, my kids love getting comfortable in a pair of fun Halloween pajamas, like these pajamas covered in ghosts and this set with pumpkins on it. These candy-covered long johns would also make a sweet pair of pajamas for children.

Have a family fun night in the kitchen some evening making and decorating cookies with this Halloween cookie kit. And put up fun decorations indoors, like this ghost-lined garland and these faux white pumpkins, or hang these waterproof black bats in your trees outdoors to help set the spooky scene and get your family even more excited about Halloween!

When it comes to stocking the bar cart, use these smoke-colored drinking glasses or these dark gray champagne coupes to darken the mood a bit for this Halloween season. And these gold mint julep cups would help add an elegant aspect to your bar cart’s drinkware stock. Use this black rattan tray to serve drinks to your guests and this “Boo” serving platter to set out sweets and other treats.

I can’t wait to see my kids dressed up in their costumes and take them trick or treating. Halloween will be here before you know it, but until then we’ll enjoy this October and find little ways to celebrate with each other.

Living Room

This handwoven wicker table is sure to add texture to any space. Place it next to your living room couch and decorate it with a set of beautiful coffee table books. Add this rattan armchair to your set and play it up with patterns by picking one of the many fabric options for its cushion cover.

I love this brown fringed ottoman. They’re so versatile and you can use it as a footstool or a coffee table. Add some extra earth-tones to your space by layering these brown pillow covers on your couch. Or, grab the same pillow cover in a different color, such as coastal blue, navy, white, dusk, or yellow, and experiment with different colors and sizes.

Bedroom

This coastal blue linen-wrapped driftway three-drawer chest is a gorgeous piece. Pair it with this coastal blue driftway one-drawer nightstand and really elevate your bedroom. You can also use these wicker scallop baskets for extra storage to hold blankets or declutter yours or your children’s room.

This white and wicker petite desk lamp or this waverly wall sconce are great options to use as a bedside lamp or a night light, or just to dress up a space with some special lighting. And this floral patterned wallpaper in coastal blue or grove is sure to invite a vintage-inspired look to a bedroom.

Kitchen / Dining Room

Handcrafted from oak, the Lakehouse Round Dining Table is a Serena and Lily take on the classic monastery table and a beautiful option if you need to update your dining room. Top your table with this marble and brass lazy susan and use it as a chic centerpiece. Add a set of round scalloped-edged placemats to include natural texture to your table.

This rattan Balboa Bench would make the perfect seating option for your children at dinner time, and you can pick a color or pattern for the cushion cover. Add a bit of color to your kitchen with this durable hand-knotted runner. It’s floral pattern is made from hand-knotted yarn in blue and white hues, and it’s super soft under your feet. Then, update and polish your dining room lighting with this Kentfield Pendant which is a modern take on a classic candlestick fixture.

Front Porch / Outdoors

This marble Wainscott Table is one of my favorite pieces on my wish list! Place it on your front porch and pair it with two riviera outdoor chairs to create the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Use a cayman vessel to hold your favorite candle or a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

Lastly, snag these Pacifica Planters to house your favorite porch plants. The weather-friendly planter in driftwood would be perfect for mums or decorating with holiday decor like a christmas tree.

Happy Friday, Friends! In the midwest, we’re beginning to feel that crisp fall air as the leaves on the trees slowly start to turn beautiful oranges and yellows – signs that fall is just around the corner. For this Friday Favorites, I’ve gathered together all of my favorite finds to help you prep for the fall season.

When fall arrives, one of my favorite outfit staples is a good cardigan, or two, to pair and layer with any outfit. This puff-sleeve alpaca blend cardigan is one of my favorite finds. It has a cute cropped fit that would look great with this twill tiered midi dress, which is the perfect dress to transition from summer to fall. This boxy, rib-knit cardigan is also a good fall cardigan option.

This time of year, sweaters and long-sleeved shirts start to make an appearance in our wardrobes, as well. This latte crochet bettina sweater is a mix of comfort and class with its feminine crochet lace cape over a classic crewneck. I also love a good long-sleeved tee, like this modern long red, white, and blue striped tee which is super comfy and can be worn with a good pair of jeans. Dress your outfit up with a pair of cute flats, or grab these shaker waterproof winter boots to wear with your fall fits and prepare for upcoming winter weather.

One of my favorite things about fall is the natural color palette. Add earth tones to your home as well as texture and warmth with woven rattan and wicker decor. This hand-woven wicker scallop pendant will add a classic aspect to a kitchen or dining room as well as these parisian woven rattan bar and counter stools. Include a glass flower vase with a rattan cover to help enhance your space and sit it on your table with a beautiful bouquet of sunflowers to brighten up a room.

I especially love this woven seagrass console table which adds both natural texture and a hint of coastal charm to a space. This Caan desk in white is an elegant option to add to your office. Adding decor made of burlwood to your home is a huge trend right now, and these exotic burl wood gallery frames will provide natural, earthy vibes to any space they’re placed in while holding some of your favorite moments in their frames. Lastly, I am in love with this Oceana Wallpaper in grove green and sky blue. Use this sea-inspired wallpaper to breathe life into a new space.
