24 Effortlessly Chic Pieces to Kickstart Your ‘Nancy Meyers Spring’ Refresh – Including the Perfect Flouncy Ottoman

Spring is when Nancy Meyers fans seem to emerge from hibernation. You could argue the filmmaker's signature of airy, effortlessly chic interiors runs year-round, but if it doesn’t peak with the Santa Barbara house that Meryl Streep’s Jane Adler calls home in It’s Complicated (2009), we don’t know what does.

The spring iteration of this already classic, coastal grandmother–adjacent look introduces subtle hits of color to the light, bright palette Nancy Meyers is known for – seen in upbeat florals woven through textured table linens, an extra-flouncy ottoman skirt, or a single butter-yellow taper in lieu of the usual white.

Because this look finds beauty in everyday rituals, we're after brands like Inner Child, which elevates the mundane with patterned wastebaskets, and designers such as Shea McGee, who brings Nancy’s signature slipcovered style to life with green-on-green ginghams and crawling-vine upholstery. Pattern play is essential here; with each layer, this seasonal scene grows more cinematic.

Ahead, 24 pieces that whisper: 'Nancy Meyers spring.'
