Exclusive! Martha Stewart Shared Her ‘Essential’ Fall Staples

Martha Stewart doesn’t just dress for fall — she brings the season into every corner of her life. When that “first real change in the air” arrives, as explained in an interview with Us Weekly, she makes her wardrobe and home feel “a little warmer and more inviting,” from the sweaters she wears to the textures she decorates with. Luckily, recreating Stewart’s fall magic doesn’t require a Martha-sized budget.

Stewart’s latest QVC assortment makes it easy to follow her lead, with fashion, decor and fragrance inspired by pieces she genuinely enjoys and uses in her own life. A great sweater is “essential” in her fall wardrobe, but she also prioritizes clothes that are “beautifully made, comfortable” and can be “worn in many different ways.” After all, her days can take her “between the farm, meetings, travel, dinners, and events.”

Her home gets the fall treatment, too. Stewart gravitates toward “the rich browns, greens, golds, creams, and deep reds” found in nature, along with “substantial, tactile materials” like textured fabrics, natural woods and woven accents. Her fall decor, candles and seasonal fragrances bring those cozy touches indoors, all while sticking to her philosophy that everything should be “beautiful, comfortable and functional.”

Plus, you don’t have to completely redecorate to get the look. Stewart recommends starting with things that are “easy to change,” like throws, pillows, warmer table linens and candles. She also loves decorating with branches, apples, pears, pumpkins and gourds, calling an arrangement of branches and changing leaves “spectacular.”

From cozy knits that’ll refresh your fall wardrobe to candles, fragrances and decor that make home feel instantly more seasonal, Stewart’s fall essentials are an easy way to welcome autumn. Keep scrolling to shop eight of our favorite Martha Stewart fall picks for your closet and home.
