I have literally been on the hunt for a coffee table to match my new grey decor scheme for a year. I went back and forth between the shape and color I wanted, but all of the tables I looked at were just ‘eh’. I typically have an idea in mind for what I want, but I always end up going with my gut. My philosophy with everything is ‘when you know, you know’- you don’t need to talk yourself into something you actually want. I usually wait to spend money until I find something I’m in LOVE with, and that was definitely the case with looking for this table. I’m excited to announce that after eight months of kicking my water glass, my search for the perfect table is finally OVER!
This gorgeous table is a slab of white and grey marble set on an iron frame. It’s the Box Frame Coffee Table from West Elm [linked it in case you want to check it out too]. I actually ordered the table a month ago, but it’s been on back order and just shipped this week. Thought I would mention that in case you too are interested in the table but were like ‘what the heck!!!’ when you went to order. BE PATIENT LITTLE ONES. GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT.
I’ve also gotten a new bed and painted my room since you’ve last seen it. So many home updates! I’m not quite finished with the room yet, and I want to hang curtains throughout my apartment before filming an update video. You’ll just have to see the progress here and on instagram until it’s video update worthy!
Hope this post made you even 1% of the happy that writing it brought me. Home stuff makes me happy. And you guys make me happy too. All of the smiles. Talk to you soon!

You and Elle Fowler seriously need to do some type of home shopping vlog (or just film together in general ha:)) because you guys it seems might have the similar taste when it comes to home furnishing.

I love home posts, especially yours! I have been a loyal follower of your youtube, instagram and blog and I am always so happy and inspired whenever I see home decor posts from you because your place is gorgeous. The wait was totally worth it because that table is gorgeous and fits in so perfectly with your color scheme and decor. Great find!

I love your home decor style. It’s so elegant and chic without being boring, which I find challenging personally when I try to stick with a monochromatic feel. I usually end up throwing in a pop of color because I can never seem to get it just right. Have you ever considered interior design as a a career? I think you’d be amazing at it.

I too have been researching this coffee table! Just wondering if you can tell me about the sturdiness of it. I have their terrace coffee table which is gold and glass and it is extremely rickety. Because it is in a formal living room that we don’t use much, I think it is okay. But I would have this marble one in our family room. My children will be in there a lot! Is it pretty solid? Does it sway at all?

Love your living space. Where is that lovely thick throw blanket from? I’ve been looking for a nice throw for my living for some time now.
