As the temperature rises and the sun shines brighter, it's time to refresh your home decor for the summer season. Luckily, updating your space doesn't have to be a daunting task. With a few simple steps and some luxurious touches you can transform your home into a stylish summer retreat.

Ditch the heavy fabrics
Start by replacing heavy blankets and pillows with lightweight fabrics in vibrant colors and playful patterns. Consider investing in luxurious linen or cotton bedding for a cool and breezy summer sleep. The neutral aesthetic is here to stay,so you can go “barely there beige” and cream. BUt don’t be shy about adding a colorful throw or textured pillows. We love boucle poufs for added seating and a luxe touch of texture.

Bring in fresh florals + greenery
Plants and flowers instantly add life to any space. Incorporate potted plants, hanging baskets, or fresh cut flowers from your garden or local florist. For a touch of luxury, add an oversized Majesty palm to your living room or gorgeous vase as a centerpiece.

Add a summertime scent
Create an inviting ambiance with summer-scented candles, diffusers, or room sprays. We are OBSESSED with Sicilian Tangerine and of course the iconic Volcano scent. Grapefruit is a personal favorite as well.

Incorporate natural texture
Rattan, bamboo, and other natural textures add an organic feel to your decor. Consider adding a rattan accent chair, woven trays and a chic wooden bowl with natural finish. Our pick: a knotted accent and a woven rug work wonders for an inexpensive summertime update.

Don't skip the details
Small details can make a big impact. We love mixing up our coffee table books from Gray Malin for the season to usher in coastal images and vacation inspiration.

With these simple steps and some luxurious touches you can transform your home into a summer oasis.
