Fall Home Trends: Mad for Plaid!

This post is promoted by Target. 

Well, here we are – it’s finally fall!  I do love summer, but I feel like fall is just the best when it comes to style.  If you’re experimenting with some fall home trends, you’ve got to see what Target is rolling out this season.  I just shopped last week, and I went a little mad for plaid.  I’m loving it!

So, here’s the thing:  I’m not all that bold when I choose my decor pieces.  I typically play by the rules.  I’ll drool over someone else’s edgy style, but I’m really pretty classic when it comes to what I put in my home.  I like things that will stay popular for more than just one season.  And what’s cool is that this season’s plaid collection is a bit of both worlds – you can find great modern pieces and timeless patterns.

What I love most about the accent pieces I found for the living room are that they fit my earthy style, with woolly fabrics and warm earth tones.  I tried something a little different, and I mixed and matched a few patterns, and brought in a beautiful rusty orange.

I love the green accent wall that we have in our living room, but I’ve avoided adding any bold colors to the room so it doesn’t clash.  This season, I finally decided to take a step outside my comfort zone.  And it totally works!  The green and orange reminds me of pumpkins and autumn leaves, making the living room feel nice and cozy for the season.  I am loving it.

It may be breaking the rules a bit to incorporate several patterns at once, but plaid works with plaid even more than I expected.  And with all the options, it’s easy to test out a new look with a few accents to see how you like it!  (And the great thing about shopping at Target is that you can shop the trends without breaking the bank.)  There’s plaid for every room this season – you can try it in the kitchen with great new dishes and serving pieces; in the bedroom with new bedding and storage, and in the living room with pillows, throws, lampshades, furniture, accent pieces, and more.
