It's hard to believe that we are already half way through Autumn! This is a great time of year to enjoy our homes as the weather cools down.
At Style my Home we personally love the colder seasons just as much as the warmer months. Who doesn't love cosy nights curled up at home or long winter dinner parties entertaining our friends?
Here are our top tips for incorporating the cosy yet sophisticated Hamptons style into your home this autumn.
1. Embrace Warmth with Textures and Fabrics
Autumn calls for adding layers of warmth and comfort to your home, think of making small adaptions to make your spaces extra cosy for curling up and reading a good book! Incorporate throws, rugs, and cushions.
These elements not only add warmth but also enhance the luxurious feel of your Hamptons-inspired spaces.
Your bedroom should be the ultimate sanctuary during the cooler months, and changing up your bedding can make a significant difference in creating a cosy space. Adding extra throws will not only keep you warm it also add a touch of style to your bedroom.
TOP PICK- A rug does wonders to warm up a space. Our 'Farah' Rug is a customer and staff favourite, its thicker pile making it ideal to make your spaces extra cosy.
2. Add comfort and sophistication to your bedroom with an upholstered bedhead
A bedroom will instantly instil warmth and cosiness into your bedroom. After all a bedhead is not only providing a focal point and theme, but it is also the perfect place to sit and enjoy your coffee or tea in the cooler mornings.
Top Pick - We love all of our upholstered bedheads, each is a classic design that will last the test of time. But we do love the versatility of the Capri slipcover bedhead. Customers love that they can purchase different coloured covers if they want to change things up over time.
3) Cosy up your home with an upholstered ottoman
Ottomans come in many shapes and sizes, and are versatile pieces to use throughout your home!
Top product- We love our Elsa or Justine ottomans. The perfect alternative to a coffee table where you can put your feet up and make your lounge or bedroom extra cosy...
4. Add Depth with Seasonal Hues
Autumn is the perfect time to introduce new cushions, many opting for deeper tones that reflect the season’s natural beauty. Hamptons style typically favours a light and airy colour palette. Choose some darker navy shades to complement the neutral tones of your Hamptons furniture, adding depth to the room.
TOP PICK-Add some colour with our Threads cushions throws or linen.
5. Create Ambience with Lighting
As daylight fades earlier, the right lighting becomes key to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Swap out cooler bulbs for warmer ones to bathe your rooms in a cozy glow. Add table lamps to side tables and buffets for a touch of elegance. Don’t forget the magical ambiance that candles can bring; arrange them in clusters using holders in varying heights for a captivating display.
Top Pick- We love our Castaway lamp or our new Aspen/ Sedona timber lamps
6. Bring Nature Indoors
The Hamptons style is known for its harmonious blend with nature, making it ideal for incorporating outdoor elements into your décor. These natural accents will bring an earthy, grounded feel to your spaces, bridging the gap between the outdoors and the comfort of your home.
Top tip-A framed sea fan is a beautiful Autumn accent for smaller walls or even a bookcase or kitchen.
Or we can't wait to see our brand new Magnolia 1 and Magnolia 2 decorative canvases with a stunning bamboo frame. These stunning canvases can be purchased individually or be teamed up. Arriving late April these are available for preorder.
7. Curate a Cozy Reading Nook or Bedroom Space
Nothing says autumn like the allure of a cosy corner where you can enjoy the season’s tranquillity. Choose a corner of your living room or bedroom and place a comfortable armchair, a soft throw, and a small side table. Add a floor lamp for reading and a basket of soft blankets for the ultimate Autumn retreat.

Autumn is a season of transformation and warmth, making it the ideal time to infuse your home with the cosy elegance of Hamptons-inspired décor.
