One of the things I’ve been really trying to do as of late is build out my “library.” Honestly, I have a serious problem when I go into bookstores… but it’s normally just books I want to read. Now, I’ve been gravitating towards beautiful coffee table books.
I just can’t get enough. I had to stop myself from walking out of Barnes and Noble the other week with three books on pictures of Central Park. Not okay. (But also kind of exactly okay?)
I’ve had my eye on the Kate Spade Things We Love book for a while. And I finally pulled the trigger. Oh oh oh! I love it.
One of my friends has it so I’ve flipped through it a bunch of times. I always find something new within the pages. The cover is really cute, but when you take off the dust jacket, it is NEON pink. It certainly pops.
(And ‘pops of color’ just happens to be one of the Things We Love.)
I made an Instagram video of a couple of my favorite parts of the book– and it made the popular page!
Do you have a coffee table book collection? What’s your favorite one?
"As a young girl, Louis Vuitooooon…" Instead of coffee table books, I just keep all my issues of The New Yorker and TIME on the table. I guess I'm a hoarder in that respect. Not that great. Your Friend, Jess
I loooove coffee table books too! I had to return a birthday gift to Kate Spade and after I picked out earrings and checked out, I noticed the book on my way out of the store and immediately turned around to re-exchange! The girl probably hated me haha.
I also order coffee table books used from Amazon. Just make sure it's marked "Very Good" or "Excellent" condition! I've gotten $40 books for $6 plus $3.99 shipping.
I just bought this book and can't wait to read it! I'm also trying to expand my coffee table book collection and recently added the Vogue boxset to my collection as well. I love that it comes with all three Vogue books!
… and yet you must. This week has been the hardest yet. Pressure from work, pressure from myself, pressure from the world. The magnitude of reality feels too much and too heavy. Showing up for my children though when I can barely show up for myself.
We’ve noticed an improvement in Teddy’s vitality and digestion since switching to @primalpetfoods Kibble in the Raw! It’s the easiest way to give him the benefits of raw nutrition without losing the convenience of dry kibble since it’s freeze dried into bites and completely scoopable. You would never guess he’s 11 years old with these moves at the park! #primalpetfoodspartner #ad
In that final home stretch of 2024 and waffling between wanting to plan out every second of my day/week/month and needing to also just fly by the seat of my pants. Holding on for dear life and telling myself to just enjoy the ride 🤪
When the boys go down for bed, sometimes it feels akin to crossing the finish line of a marathon! With my @therabody Theragun Sense, now I’m able to unwind and relax from the #WorkoutCalledLife. With step-by-step prompts on an LCD screen (and accompanying app), the Theragun Sense guides you through different recoveries depending on what your goals are. Tonight, I’m prepping for restful sleep with a six-minute guided massage! #TherabodyPartner
Halloween 2024 was one for the memory books 🏈 Rory’s first Halloween!! Jack had a blast, Rory loved tagging along, and Mike and I couldn’t stop smiling 🤍 I don’t know how many years I’ll be able to convince the boys to coordinate their costumes so really taking advantage- I bought Jack’s football player costume (customized!) and sewed Rory’s football bubble myself (Jack asked if he could throw him, which was a resounding and firm, “no.”). Now time to raid Jack’s stash 😛
#AveenoPartner If your little one has eczema prone skin, try switching to @aveenous’s Baby Daily Care Wash during bath time to cleanse without drying out their skin. We also use Aveeno Baby Eczema Therapy Nighttime Moisturizing Body Balm before bed to intensely moisturize and help protect Rory’s skin from moisture loss! Not only does his skin feel and look healthier, he’s so much more comfortable too! You can buy both of these products today on Amazon!
With @marthastewart48’s @netflix documentary releasing today, I invited some friends (👋🏻 @samanthavarvel and @shihstitches) over to my studio to peruse my new-to-me collection of @marthastewart Living magazines. I grew up with a “Martha Stewart Mom” and read her magazines every month alongside her. They have brought back so many memories, and they are serving up new inspiration now! I used to want to be a magazine editor, I’m sure influenced by magazines like Martha Stewart Living, and now that I’ve had a chance to revisit them, it’s not a crazy surprise I ended up as a blogger-turned-influencer. I’ve always loved this, and it’s a good thing. 🫶🏻
I am really excited to get the Humans of New York coffee table book when it comes out! It is going to be so interesting 🙂

This book looks amazing! Your Instagram video is so cool – you should definitely do a blog post on how you made that with the music!! So cool.
Love that you're venturing into Instagram videos– they are so fun! Great coffee table book choice.
