kay, confession: styling outdoor spaces used to stress me out. Between unpredictable weather, weird layouts, and trying to make things cute but also practical? It felt like a lot. But over the years (and many outdoor refreshes later), I’ve cracked the code — and now I actually love creating outdoor spaces that feel just as cozy and intentional as the inside of my home. This week I partnered with Wayfair Canada (you know I love a good Wayfair moment) to show you just how easy — and affordable — it can be to elevate your backyard, balcony, porch, or patio. Whether you’re working with a full backyard or a small city balcony, these tips work everywhere.

Here’s what I used — and how you can pull off the look yourself:
Even Outdoors Mix Materials and Textures
Every outdoor space needs contrast. Think: wood + concrete, metal + ceramic, soft + structured. I added the Concrete Top End Table for that sculptural, modern feel — and it totally elevated the look. Mixing textures instantly makes any space feel layered and luxe.
Invest In Statement Planters for Outside
Bring in (or out) Soft Elements
Pillows and throws outside? YES. Outdoor-friendly textiles are a thing now (bless), and they totally change the vibe. Even if you don’t have outdoor versions, don’t be afraid to use them – just don’t leave them in the rain! I used the Chris Loves Julia x Loloi pillow in beige/mocha — the texture, the print, everything. Don’t be afraid to bring your indoor style out with you.
Use Decor the Same Way You Would Indoors
Just because it’s outside doesn’t mean it has to be boring. Once I clean up the backyard, I’m totally going to incorporate the Waverly Handmade Ceramic Vase (because why not?? Again, just don’t forget to bring it in when it rains!) and it added such a beautiful, intentional touch. Little details like this go a long way in making your outdoor space feel like an actual room.
Create Shade and Structure Outside
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to upgrade your umbrella, this is it. The Iago Outdoor Umbrella is sleek, modern, and makes everything feel more elevated — while actually being super functional. It’s the kind of thing that makes your space look put together with basically zero effort.
Define Your Outdoor Zones
If you’ve got the space, try breaking it into “zones” — a little lounge corner, a spot for dining, a plant-filled reading nook, whatever makes sense for your lifestyle. Use rugs, planters, and furniture placement to create visual separation and function.
