Taking over fashion trends for the best part of the past year, the ‘quiet luxury’ trend is one with real legs. It has a timeless appeal and is defined by real, quality materials that will stand the test of time.
That mentality makes shopping for the quiet luxury trend so rewarding: essentially you’re investing in pieces that will go the long haul, avoiding re-buying or shopping fads that will no doubt date your home. So a budget-friendly, quiet luxury edit should tick even more boxes, right? I certainly think so.
Thanks to the Way Day sale kicking off this weekend, the Wayfair sale has a whole host of serene and sophisticated pieces that I’m coveting to help deck out my home for less. Here, I run through my favorite pieces and how to shop at Wayfair like a style editor.
How to shop the quiet luxury trend at Wayfair
Of course, the first thing you’re going to want to do is head to Wayfair and get those elbows sharpened (virtually, of course). Then my best tips are to ensure you have a game plan in mind – perhaps you’re looking for bedroom furniture, kitchen accessories, or aiming straight for Wayfair’s outdoor sale – and secondly, you’re going to want to get to know their filter system.
Shopping on Wayfair can be quite overwhelming, there are so many products to choose from, and that only becomes more heightened on Way Day. So the safest strategy (for your wallet and your mind) is to look at sale shopping with tunnel vision. You can filter every category on Wayfair by interior design style, making it much easier to weed out the more maximalist pieces and land in a more curated edit.
Speaking of which, here are my 12 favorite items on Wayfair right now that will help you achieve a quiet luxury aesthetic with pieces that exude opulence through subtlety, focusing on quality materials, craftsmanship, and thoughtful detailing.
