A Vintage-Inspired Home Office

My husband and I have a dream, and a very real goal, to buy a house that we can retire in. On my list of things I'd love for the house to include is an extra bedroom that I could turn into a beautiful home office. I envision a very Instagram-worthy desk, a place to store all of the PR samples I get, and some pretty tufted accent chairs: where I can enjoy coffee breaks with my husband, who luckily also works from home.

When I get inspiration from vintage home offices on the web, I'm most attracted to spaces with a touch of modern glam. My husband and I both like transitional decor - old meets new. For example, I'd pair a modern mirrored desk with one of these antique desk chairs. Seating isn't often the focal point of an office, but why shouldn't it be? We spend all day sitting in it, after all.


My husband and I take frequent breaks throughout the day, with a coffee break here and there and a lunch hour during which we watch one of our favorite shows togeth…

KCL September Beauty Edit



I'm so excited to bring you guys the KCL Monthly Beauty Edit! I've done monthly beauty picks in the past, but this new feature will include what I'm loving as well as what I'm not, so I can let you guys know where to spend and where to save. I've always been passionate about trying new beauty products, so I know firsthand how important it is to feel like you're getting your money's worth.

I've been lucky to test out several new products via Influenster recently; and a few other great companies, like L'BRI and Liquid Luxxe, have also sent me goodies. As always, some of the items are things I've bought myself. And with all of them...

I keep in mind how much each product costs, and constantly ask myself throughout the testing process, even if it's a product I like, is this really worth the price?



The short answer is YES on several of these products! You can shop my recommended items below, or find them linked under the video. I have to say (because I'm an airhead sometimes) that the Liquid Luxxe Pumpkin Spice product I raved about is BODY POLISH! I noticed after the video that despite going on and on about how awesome it smells, I had failed to mention what it actually is! It is a very moisturizing sugar scrub that works just as good as it smells!

Please check out the full video below and leave me a comment!



I really hope you enjoy this month's Beauty Edit video, and please subscribe on Youtube. I'll be posting a new video once a week, every week from now on. And hopefully will get better at it as I go! I'd love to hear what you think in the comments below! Thanks! :)

  12. I appreciate your honesty, girl! A lot of times, when products are given for free, there's a pressure to share only great things about the product and brand, but this doesn't help anyone. Not the consumer nor the brand. I think brands should value this kind of feedback to improve their product, as you've mentioned. Thanks for sharing, gorgeous, it was nice putting a voice with a face; I look forward to watching these weekly videos! I hope you have a great weekend ahead!
