The best outdoor buys from Anthropologie's Memorial Day sale

Brody outdoor sofa

We're big on deckchair stripes for the backyard, and this blend of white and mint adds a retro pop to your space. The frame is finished in coated powder so it withstands the weather, and the detailing on the frame brings a quaintness to your seating.

Glenn Ellen armchair

Rattan adds interest and texture to your backyard seating area, and I like this Glenn Ellen armchair in statement black. Add an outdoor side table for the perfect outdoor coffee moment.

Tassa outdoor sofa

When it comes to the debate of outdoor sofa vs outdoor bench, there is no doubt that an outdoor sofa brings a touch of comfort to your outdoor space, and the low silhouette of this pillowy sectional is a great option if you're looking to make a cozy outdoor seating area.

Set of bistro chairs

Bistro seating never seems to go out of style, and they are perfect for smaller outdoor spaces as they can slot into a smaller space with ease. Bring a touch of Paris to your balcony or terrace this summer with this set of two.

Ezana dining table

For an outdoor table with a bit of an edge, this dining table has an intricately carved floral motif along the side which will look great in your backyard. The finish is of natural wood and gives it a real boho-inspired feel.

Tommy Abstract Beach Chair

I love Business & Pleasure's collection of deck chairs, umbrellas and cabanas, and this warm-weather seat is designed with a sturdy teak frame with a comfy canvas sling to support a natural recline.

Kuna accent chair

The woven pattern on the arms of the Kuna chair gives it a boho flair. Made from natural teak wood, it has a real natural feel, and the cream upholstered cushions add softness. The perfect outdoor coffee spot.

Live-Edge coffee table

I keep coming back to this clever coffee table made from weather-resistant concrete that has been cast from a naturally found tree stump. It will blend seamlessly into your outdoor surroundings, and you can really see the grain with the white colorway.

Masaya & Co. Apanas dining table

Teak is a great option for outdoor furniture, and this is handcrafted from sustainably sourced teak wood. It's a welcome addition to the sheltered area of your backyard and would look great under a canopy or on a patio.

Pari Rattan chair

Rattan is big at Anthropologie at the moment, and this curving chair has an elegant look. A great addition for a porch in need of a setting area, and its curved arched back brings a softness to your outdoor space.

Peacock hanging chair

This detailed rattan outdoor swing chair in white has been beautifully crafted. Its egg shape makes it a comfy spot tied to a pergola or tree, and with the addition of a decorative throw, it's the perfect reading nook.

Sonali cement chair

I like the look of this sculptural piece, with three shapes working together to balance and stack carefully on top of each other. This round outdoor dining table is part artwork, part functional dining table piece and the grey-washed concrete brings an industrial edge.

What are the colors for patio furniture for summer 2023?

When it comes to outdoor trends for backyard furniture this summer, we're enjoying warm, earth tones and natural materials that bring a boho vibe to your space.

When it comes to the perfect colors for patio furniture, you want to pick something that isn't too loud, something that doesn't clash with any building.

Think carefully before going too dark - dark black or anything too brown can fade into the background, blending into the surrounding vegetation. Dark tones absorb the heat and can be uncomfortable to sit on.

Be careful when going too light in color too. White is another outdoor furniture color to avoid and can easily get dirty and will need to be regularly cleaned. Light grey, off-white, and taupe are popular outdoor furniture tones. These tones make an excellent backdrop for more vibrant accessories or trending items to shine.
