West Elm

If you're a design enthusiast, it's no secret that West Elm is a go-to for contemporary furniture and statement accessories. And the retailer's plan for the fall season doesn't disappoint. The beloved home furnishings giant, which is a branch of Williams Sonoma, has just released its fall lookbook, and we're pleased to report that it's basically your fall decorating bible. Scroll down for a look at our top picks from West Elm's fall arrivals.

VELVET

For a fall update, there isn't a more luxurious fabric than velvet. This elegant velvet chair has a rounded back and curvy silhouette, making it perfect for lounging.

Add a dose of texture—and style—to your sofa with this pressed velvet pillow cover that comes in five colors.

STATEMENT COLORS

We can't get enough of this console's unexpected yellow hue and geometric patterned facade. It's the wow factor your living room has been missing.

Let this organic cotton duvet, boasting an abstract floral pattern, be the focal point of your bedroom design. 

MODERN LED LIGHTING
