What color throw pillows should you pair with your couch color? As a style editor, I've tested them all, and I'm here to make your decisions easy

Beige living room with a large rug and a large neutral couch with multi colored throw pillows styled with a glass coffee table.

Of all the small decorating decisions I've had to make in my home, I have found picking and choosing throw pillow colors for my couch one of the trickiest.

I have a neutral linen couch in one space and a navy in another, so I am fortunate (or maybe unfortunate) to be working with two very contrasting couch color trends, which means I've really had to do my homework. So I thought, why not share everything I have learnt along the way?
