I'm in my fall feelings right now: Give me all the dark mahogany wood tones, the colored marble, the antiqued lighting...but with a modern vibe. I spotted a vanity at Wayfair a few days ago that I sent to all of my work girlies because it was THAT. GOOD. The next thing you know, I had rounded up 16 things that are just sneaky-good finds on Wayfair. Get your hands on these before they backorder for the season!
My Top Wayfair Picks
This handsome vanity has all the Old World charm. It makes me want to spend Labor Day weekend renovating a cottage-y bathroom. $769
A proper pendant gives any room a facelift. I can think of at least four spaces in my home right now where I would hang this. $639
It's jacket season! I'm fantasizing about propping this coat rack behind the front door and taking everyone's coats as they come in from a brisk fall day. (Also, there's mulled cider on the stove, obv.) $319
I've had a version of this chair in my living room for years. It's my favorite because it's so cozy — but also has so much structure. And it swivels, which makes it great for side conversations :) $589
Colored marble has made such a comeback. Imagine this statement piece in the entryway with a big vase of fall stems... mmm! $549
I'm planning to prop these electric candlesticks in every window during the holiday season... $73 for four
A standing mirror feels like the heirloom level of full-length mirrors. (We need this guy in our guest room, stat.) $139
I never met a step stool I didn't love. I bought this brass one for our kitchen, and it's just as pretty as it is useful. Form meets function, folks. $316
This. Striped. Ottoman. The canopy stripe is the pop of red that every room needs — it's just fire. And those ruffles? Swoon. $379
This darling lamp went viral earlier this year (and was sold out for a while) because it's about $300 less than its lookalike. $53
A double candle wall sconce says "historical footprint" to me. This one will patina nicely, too — just getting better with time. $711
We have this table's twin in our study. It makes a statement as a desk, but we've transformed it into a dining table two Thanksgivings in a row. $450
This traditional accent chest would look great as a nightstand in a primary bedroom. It's giving "boutique hotel." $779
This is the nightstand we have in Polly's room! Those turned wood legs have my heart. $148
A scalloped headboard adds romance and charm. (This one is $1,000 less than its pricey lookalike.) $471

I recently got a question from a commenter who asked me how I entertain at home to make guests feel at ease. This question came at a great time since fall can be a natural hosting season from watch parties (there's football...or The Bach) to Thanksgiving. The truth is — Chris and I really *enjoy* […]
This year has been the (slightly unexpected) year of our exterior renovation! And, honestly, the house has never felt more us. All the renovations we've done to our "Modern Colonial" North Carolina home feel like they represent the elements that I loved so much about our last house in Idaho. There's this moody exterior with […]
I'm even more excited to share today's recipe with you because it's more than just a dessert—it inspired a lip balm flavor! That's right, we just launched a collaboration with our friends at Poppy & Pout based on three fall desserts that I developed just for you. We love Poppy & Pout because they're just […]
Everyone gets excited to decorate for fall (same!) but an often overlooked element of decorating is how a home smells. Scent is such a powerful tool in making your home feel warm, welcoming, and seasonal. When I think about fall scents I definitely want some spicy or woodsy notes in there like cardamom, amber and […]
