As we prepare for the cooler months, it is time to hunker down and spend some serious time cozying up our spaces. Kelly Clarkson is well aware of this fact. In a recent Instagram post, the American Idol winner shared her cozy autumn nook. It's serving major fall vibes and we think every home needs one. 

Luckily, the singer shared all the details of the autumnal space she put together with Wayfair so we can recreate this living room idea in our homes.

Kelly's cozy living room features the Amelia Mae chair, the Riviera End Table, The Lavoro Traditional Floor Lamp, and the Billie Oriental Rug, all from Wayfair. Shop Kelly's entire nook look below. 

Interior design experts confirm that Kelly's look is perfect for autumnal relaxation. 

Louise Bradley, a London-based interior designer says that when you are trying to create cozy fall interiors, you should 'choose natural materials such as wood, linen, bamboo, and earthy ceramics.' She continues, 'Together they create a beautiful, harmonious scheme that feels cozy over the autumn season.'

Louise also recommends choosing a natural color palette. She says, 'Earthy colors evoke a sense of being in nature and work hand in hand with the rich greens of foliage which can feel very festive.' Furthermore, she says, utilizing neutral creams and natural finishes makes it so the house 'lends itself to decorating for the festive season'

Kelly's nook edit expertly meets Louise's requirements. In her own home, layers of natural wood, warm brassy steel, and earthy linen create an essential autumn look. The natural color palette is versatile and could be incorporated into any home.

'By creating this little corner of tranquility in her living room, Kelly Clarkson emphasizes her dedication to warmth and comfort in design. Meanwhile, the stylish furniture pieces she has chosen keep the look sophisticated.'
