Since adding blue to my decor earlier this year, I’ve been searching for the best accent color to use with blue and white this fall. Have you seen the beautiful blue and orange color combo that is being used?
I am loving it!
With all the amazing colors that autumn brings, it’s a great time to change up your home decor with some fall color! Even if you don’t use blue and white in your decor, orange is still a great accent color for fall.
While I’m excited to share my favorite orange fall accents, I won’t forget about the classic blue and white decor combination either!

Fall is the perfect season to cozy up your home with warm, inviting colors. A timeless combination of blue, white, and orange creates a cheerful and welcoming atmosphere. Makes me want to snuggle up on the couch with a good book. Whether you’re a minimalist or love to go all out, there’s a way to incorporate these colors into your home.

Can You Mix And Match Blues?
Before I show you all the beautiful fall items I found, I wanted to address a question I have been asked several times over the last few months. Some of you have asked when decorating with blue, can you mix different shades of blue? The answer for me is yes!
The blues don’t have to be matchy-matchy, they just need to flow. I have to admit, mixing and matching blues, into my decor, has been a fun process.

What a beautiful post. Pillows are such a great accent. The orange and blue is perfect for fall. I have started a collection myself.
I also love dried sticks and flowers, lavender, eucalyptus. Since I do not keep many live plants anymore, they are still cheerful.
Love the rugs, excited to pick out some new ones for my new hardwood floors.
Thank you, Tina! I can’t wait to see your new home! xo
Thank you for sharing this, Kim. I have a blue and white colour scheme and always wonder about adding warm colours for fall. Not a huge fan of orange but can live with it for a few months.
Thanks for stopping by Carol! Hope you are well!

Shelley
Thanks so much, Shelley! I’m a blue and white girl, too! Happy fall! 🍂
Kim, I am a throw pillow junkie too. I love the color orange with blue. It pops and is a gorgeous color for the fall. Faux orange florals or left stems in a blue and white ginger jar are a win-win combination. Beautiful, Kim! Love those orange and blue pillows from Society 6.
You can never have too many pillows!!! Glad I’m not alone! xo
You had me at Blue. These shades are really beautiful together. Love the favorites . Will have to try the cookie recipe. Chocolate chip are my favorite.
Blue and orange are perfect together for fall! Glad you liked it!
