5 Crazy-Cute Cabincore Looks From Instagram To Cozy Up Your Living Room
October 23rd 2021

Does something about the crisp fall season make you want to book an Airbnb getaway—maybe to a remote mountain A-frame cabin to watch the leaves change while you sip hot cider in your shearling slippers? Then you must be a fan of cabincore, an aesthetic that’s warm, rural, and outdoorsy yet anchored by cozy, attainable spaces.
If you can’t plan an escape to nature at the moment, don’t worry. We’re bringing you the best of those same cozy fall vibes you’re craving. These trending looks from Instagram deliver the best of your dream cabin getaway right into the heart of your living room with antiques-inspired furniture, eclectic lighting, and even your very own wood-burning stove.
Here are all our favorite cabincore styles of the week. So grab your chunky wool sweater and check out everything you need to steal this trendy relaxed style.
Aquamarine velvet couch

One thing all cozy fall getaways have in common is gorgeous antiques-inspired furniture, like this aquamarine velvet couch from @iamhayleystuart.
“An aquamarine velvet couch hits two interior design trends,” says designer Nichole Abbott, of FLOOR360. “Velvet has a unique look and feel, adding a distinct tangible quality to any space. And aquamarine is a color that fits the current color palette.”
The seawater-inspired shade brings out the best in warm nature-driven colors like browns, beiges, burnt orange, and sandstone, adds Abbott.
Bronze fan fireplace screen

Fall feels reach new heights if you have an inviting hearth to sit by—even if there’s no fire burning within. So whether you have a working fireplace or just a decorative one, this bronze fan screen from @number_4_on_the_park will add just the right amount of old-world whimsy.
“The beauty of a smartly designed fireplace can be appreciated whether it’s in use or not,” says design director Sarah Gaffney of Next Stage Design + Build. “Bronze fan fireplace screens are popular because they meet a necessary function—keeping back sparks and ash. But they also visually improve the appearance of the space.”
Festive orange throws

If you live for the fall season, you’re going to want some of these festive, orange throw pillows and blankets from @caroldo143 adorning your couch this autumn.
”Throws are having a big moment right now. They satisfy the near-universal need to bring comfort into the home anywhere and everywhere we can,” says Abbott. “An orange throw hits a seasonal note. The fall color brings the outside inside, which is another trend for interiors we see in many homes.”
Wood-burning stove

We swoon over all sorts of cute and warming wood stoves. But if we had to choose one for our ultimate dream cabin, this wood stove in a fireplace from @pippa_janey_stylist might just win.
“There continues to be a demand for rustic elements from the last century that fit with the cottagecore and cabincore trends,” says Abbott. She breaks down cottagecore as the English country cottage aesthetic seen in quaint interior design and fashion. And both of these core-centric aesthetics share comfort as the main design theme.
“There’s something about a wood-burning stove that adds an extra amount of coziness,” adds Abbott. “Warmth seems to be the driving force behind most current home decor selections.”
Exposed-bulb tree lamp

Something about the exposed bulb look really tugs on our heartstrings, especially when it’s such a prominent piece like this one from @mydecordrama.
“An exposed-bulb tree lamp fits with the eclectic style of cabincore and adds that rustic element to a soft space,” says Abbott. “The rough appearance of the exposed lighting fixture is a perfect contrast to a cushy room. This style is ideal for a space with a darker color palette as it will blend into the room’s overall environment.”
