Autumn’s Warmly Rustic Bedroom Aesthetic Is Here: Get to Know the Apple Cider Trend

You’ve probably heard of grandma-core and cottage-core, but what about apple cider core? A growing trend in the world of bedroom decor, 2025’s newest design aesthetic is as warm as it is charming. Imagine cozy strolls through orchards clutching cups of cocoa or snuggling up on the front porch in your favorite cable knit sweater, and you’ll have some idea of what it feels like to go to bed at night in an apple cider core space. Still, creating this fun fall style can be a challenge. Fortunately, Latest Bedding is here to help you turn your home into a haven perfect for rest and relaxation. From apple red hues to cozy plaid prints, choosing the right design touches can help take your space from summer to fall. Keep reading for some of our top tips on decorating your primary bedroom as the weather starts to turn. 

Consider Your Colors

Embracing the apple cider aesthetic means swapping out cooler shades for warm fall hues. Think of bold colors like red, crimson, gold, cinnamon, russet, and apple green. At once cozy and eye-catching, these hues are perfect for warming up a space when the weather outside is anything but. For an option reminiscent of bright autumn foliage, consider the Enchanted Garden Red 4 Piece Comforter Set from J Queen New York. Featuring a multi-hued floral Jacobean design in red, gold, pink, and green, the oversized, overfilled comforter is warm enough for the chilly fall nights ahead. Additionally, customers receive two matching pillow shams with hidden zipper closures and a coordinated 15-inch bedskirt with tailored split corners perfect for hiding under-bed storage from view. Purchase the set on your own or spend a little more to add extra pieces like the Enchanted Garden Accent Pillows and Enchanted Garden Window Treatments. 

Prefer something a little more neutral? Consider J Queen New York’s Pascal Cinnamon 3 Piece Comforter Set. With a pretty mini-plaid pattern in shades of warm tan, the collection is crafted from healthful 100 percent cotton, so you can feel good about where you’re laying your head at night. Additionally, shoppers receive two matching shams. Both the comforter and shams feature a solid reverse side. Flip down the top of the comforter for added interest or turn the whole thing over when you want a change of pace. 

Think Prints

Speaking of prints, checks are a quintessential element of autumn decor. Reminiscent of classic quilts, this apple cider-friendly pattern allows home decorators to incorporate multiple hues into a single striking bedding item. We’re especially fond of the unexpected navy, white, and tan color combo found in this Bebejan Checkered Navy Reversible Comforter Set. Neutral enough for men, women, and couples, the set comes complete with a reversible comforter featuring a textured tan reverse print, two matching zipper pillow shams, a printed pillow, and a quilted pillow. A reusable fabric tote finishes off this budget-friendly collection, which is machine washable for extra convenience. Available in sizes queen and king, the Bebejan comes with a cotton sateen shell. Polyester filling with a GSM of 250 ensures you’ll stay warm on those chilly autumn nights. 

Love Your Layers

When the wind is whipping outside your windows, there’s no such thing as too many blankets. Fortunately, layers are a key component of the apple cider trend. Warm and cozy, the Delamere Wool Throw from Designer Guild is sure to keep you snug on snowy nights. Boasting a charcoal hue with pops of yellow, this tartan check print item is reminiscent of days on the wind-whipped Scottish Highlands. A fringed edge adds extra style points and ensures the piece looks as charming draped on a bed as it does thrown over a favorite chair. 

Those looking to lean even further into the apple aesthetic may be drawn to the bold red hue of the Andrew Plaid Red Boudoir Decorative Throw Pillow. Measuring 22 inches by 15 inches, this J Queen New York piece features a classic tartan pattern on one side with cozy sherpa side opposite. Dry clean this pillow to keep it looking its best.

Get Playful

Of course, the best thing about a bedroom remodel is getting to show off your unique sense of style. We love the idea of embracing the fun of apple cider core by leaning into the design style’s sense of whimsy. Ruffles are a key element of this cutesy fall trend, so think about investing in this Classic Ruffle Sheet Set by Pine Cone Hill. Made from 100 percent cotton and boasting a thread count of 200, the collection comes with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and two matching pillowcases in a white shade that goes with anything and everything. It’s machine washable and can be dried on low. We love the idea of pairing the collection with a more rustic linen comforter set for a look that celebrates the very best of both shabby and chic.
