Linen bed sheets in December. Balsam fir candles in August. Sales are typically where unwanted stock goes to sing its swan song, but Anthropologie’s Home Favorites Event is essentially the opposite, taking 30% off evergreen favorites and what I suspect will be some of this fall's biggest decorating trends across bedding, towels, home fragrance, and more, now through July 19.
Already on the docket: ruffles (the iconic Spa Sateen Sheets now come in an easier-to-layer stripe), scallops (these velour bath towels brighten a bathroom just as the days begin to darken), chenille (the cool-weather armchair upholstery of my dreams), swivel silhouettes (stationary chairs are so passé), yarn-dyed bed skirts to disguise under-bed storage (your soon-to-be-retired resortwear will need somewhere to go), and sturdy stoneware because, believe it or not, hot tea is in your future.
