Although terra cotta and rust are similar, in my mind they are two very distinct shades equally worthy of spending time exploring (and drooling over). The of-the-earth hue is reminiscent of desert days, endless summers, and a whole lot of sartorial goodness. Whether you’re wearing the color or placing strategic pops of clay around your home, I think you’ll agree that this shade is one to inspire.

I agree about terra cotta being its own separate thing, and these are fabulous examples of it! I especially love that kitchen with the open shelves.
Pretty, pretty! Warm vibes of late summer and early fall. Can’t wait for the season to shift!
I love the emerging terra cotta trend and belive it is an evolution of millennial pink. While I love all the colors you featured, I think some of them seem more caramel infused wth ochre rather than classic terra cotta!
