We hate to break it to you, but summer is gonna be over before we know it. Sadly, those "back to school" signs are already plastered across storefronts, and it's only a matter of time before Christmas adverts begin playing on TV. Deep breaths, people!
If, like us, you want to make that summer-to-autumn transition as smooth as possible, then a refresh of your interior is a great place to start. Luckily, the biggest colour trend of A/W (read: baby blue) is making that transition all the easier, without being too costly!
Evoking both the feeling of being by the seaside as well as putting on a pair of ice skates, baby blue is a versatile colour that can be worn – or brought into your home – at any time of year. Baby blue is particularly on trend right now as it's already appeared in A/W runways across fashion (from Chanel and Simone Rocha, to name a few) as well as in new homeware collections. That means this trendy shade can take you all the way through to 2027 and beyond, especially when paired with pale pink, butter yellow, and chocolate brown, which is another of this year's biggest colour trends.
Want to bring baby blue into your home? These striped cushion covers from H&M are a simple way to do just that... and the satin finish with contrast pipe detailing will have every guest gobsmacked at the price. Which, by the way, is less than a tenner!
Made from 100% cotton, these cushion covers – available in both a wide or slim stripe for a mix-and-match effect – also feature a side zip for easy cleaning. And, speaking of, you can chuck these cushion covers into the washing machine as well as the tumble dryer, so there's no need to worry about scrubbing wine spills by hand after you've had your pals over for movie night.
Race you to the checkout!
