Interior trends are funny; you never know just what might come back into fashion until it does. Burnt orange is like that. The unexpected comeback shade from the '70s is dominating our mood boards in 2026 and appearing in the homes of all of our chicest friends. Luckily, Kelly Clarkson is making it easier than ever to bring the tone into your home with her new Terri Velvet Ottoman from Wayfair.
Since it's such a statement color, many people feel apprehensive about decorating with orange, or particularly integrating the color into a space with large furnishings, such as a sofa or rug. Enter, the beauty of Kelly's ottoman. It's the perfect piece for a small living room because of its tiny footprint and multifunctional capabilities. This pretty velvet ottoman can be used as a footrest, as additional seating, or for a small side table, creating endless possibilities for refiguring the layout. Its fluted velvet design also feels effortlessly chic and suptuous.
The retro color trend has arrived as the newest addition to of Kelly's latest collection for Wayfair, as an extension of her popular New York curation. Kelly tells Homes & Gardens: 'Working with Wayfair has allowed me to express my personal style through home decor, which is why introducing these fresh, new products feels so on brand as I continue to explore new styles that feel authentic to me.' As per usual, this synergy creates an incredibly chic result.
