I take so much joy in seasonal decorating. Just like transitioning my summer wardrobe into fall, I love adding extra layers and moodier colors to my home as August shifts to September. However, like with my wardrobe, I don't want to invest in overly seasonal pieces that won't see next year. Any fall decor I buy now either needs to work year-round or still feel on-trend when I bring it out next fall. So, I am picky about what I buy new each year; I want it to look elevated and expensive.
I do get tempted by all the very seasonal drops happening right now, and yes, I will dabble in a pumpkin or two, but I find it's the fall decor collections that don't go overboard on the cliché motifs that look the most expensive. And right now, those expensive-looking pieces are coming from one of the most inexpensive sources – IKEA.
