I'm an interior designer. Here are 8 items from West Elm I'd put in my own home right now.

As an interior designer, I've discovered a list of eight West Elm items that I would personally purchase for my own home this fall. Carmen Javier, a passionate interior designer who often incorporates West Elm into her designs, shares her top picks.

First on the list is the Marble Kitchen collection. This stylish and functional set features intricate brown-forest marble pieces, such as a mortar and pestle, paper-towel holder, and utensil holder that bring beauty and elegance to everyday kitchen tasks. Moving on, West Elm's throw-pillow covers are an excellent way to introduce new patterns and textures to your home. I adore the chenille jacquard treescape pillow cover, with its captivating nature-inspired design that feels perfectly suited for the season.

When it comes to lighting, I highly recommend West Elm's Rhea pendant lights. Their larger scale and linen material provide a striking yet delicate ambiance, making them a perfect addition for the cooler months. For organization and style, the Nadia wood tray is a fantastic choice. This minimalist piece combines clean lines with carved-wood detailing, offering a simple yet sophisticated touch to any space.

A cozy duvet cover is essential for any home during the fall season. The Piece & Ward striped duvet cover is a classic pattern that exudes warmth and comfort. Next up, the Thalia ottoman is a versatile piece that offers both seating and storage for your guests, making it a must-have for hosting. The Pierce & Ward two-tone wood console is an heirloom-quality addition to any home. Its solid materials and timeless silhouette are enhanced by inset panels, creating a unique texture change that adds character to your space.

Lastly, I recommend the Lumini performance wool rug. Despite its lighter tone, this rug feels cozy and warm, much like a favorite wool sweater. Its ribbed texture adds visual interest and the rug is available in various sizes and colors, providing ample versatility for different rooms. These eight West Elm finds are sure to elevate the style and comfort of your home this fall.
