When you think of introducing colors into your fall wardrobe, likely you are looking for oxblood, deep green, and ochre tones. Whether you wish to call it mustard or goldenrod, this shade is our new go-to fall neutral. It is tame enough to ground a space, but unique enough to stand out.

A blue background provides the perfect setting for this striking chair. While we are big fans of the shape, we are even bigger fans of the color. A goldenrod chair is ideal in the space.
