Step 2: Pick A New, Calming Color

Just like summer, your bed should evoke a sense of calm and relaxation, and the easiest way to do that is styling with nature-inspired shades. Each one of our colors draws from elements of nature, but there are a few we especially love this time of year: Dusty Rose, Bluestone, and Sageleaf. They’re the most soothing shades you’ll find outdoors, and contrast beautifully with bright white layers. Get to know our seasonal favorites below, or explore the entire selection with our Color Guide.

Dusty Rose

This muted pink hue was inspired by the feminine florals that bloom in the summertime. It’s the perfect way to give your bedroom a romantic touch, and make your space feel undeniably warm and inviting this season.

Bluestone

This unique blue is crafted for a modern summer look, with dusty gray undertones that are more muted than bright. Designed for an elegant update, this hue lets you enjoy the tranquility of traditional blues without making your space feel too coastal or casual.

Sageleaf

One of the best things about summer is the rich greenery—and you can let the outdoors in with this soft, dusty green. It brings a grounded feeling to any summer bedroom, with a look that connects you to nature and brings an immediate sense of calm.

Step 3: Complete your bed with a textured lightweight layer

This final touch is perfect for creating a dimensional, layered look without making your bed feel too heavy or hot. Texture adds the richest depth, and you can mix and match to your heart’s content, with textures designed to complement (but not compete with) each other. The possibilities are endless, but if you’re not sure where to start, we have two summer-perfect suggestions—our embroidered Signature Eyelet and meticulous stitched Heritage Quilt. Here’s why we love them so much.

Waffle Bed Blanket

This is one of our all-time bestsellers, and it’s especially perfect for summer. It’s made with a light, breathable weave and our plush-yet-springy waffle texture. And it offers better sleep year-round—being the only layer you’ll need in the heat of summer, and pairing with your duvet for extra coziness come winter.

A Lightweight Quilt

Forget everything you know about heavy, traditional quilts. Our collection is made different, with all-season designs that are breathable yet richly textured. It’s exactly what you need if your duvet feels too warm but a bed blanket isn’t enough. And the textures are incredibly special, with unique and intricate stitching adding an heirloom-style touch to each of our Quilt Sets.
