Favorites From Kathy Kuo: October 2023

Kathy’s Favorite #1: Fall Must-Haves from Revolve

Anyone who know me know that I am major Revolve shopper…and fall is a season where they truly shine. I just returned from High Point Market and I’m pleased to share that this gorgeous Lovers & Friends top and Raina belt from Revolve were perfect picks for all of the amazing furniture show room action I had on my schedule last week.

Don’t you just love the combination of off-white and warm brown hues for autumn? 

Kathy’s Favorite #2: Hotel Casa San Agustín’, Cartagena

After seasonal shopping, you all know my second love is travel! This year I was fortunate enough to pay a visit to gorgeous Cartagena, Colombia, to cap off my summer and I can’t recommend this destination enough. I returned feeling so inspired, refreshed, and energized by the art, architecture, food, and culture.

If this city is on your to-visit list, please let me recommend the Hotel Casa San Agustin! This property was an absolute dream—all of the decor is meant to honor Colombian history and tradition while also incorporating modern amenities. I can’t wait to go back!

Kathy’s Favorite #3: Maybelline Best Clear Lip Gloss

Sometimes you don’t have look much further than your local drugstore when it comes to the best lipgloss in the game! Maybe I’m born with preternaturally glossy lips, but maybe (much more likely) it’s Maybelline! The Maybelline brand really needs no introduction. We all know it and love it. Their Best Clear Lip Gloss has been in my makeup bag for years—it always does the trick when I need a bit of shine, and the price point is such a great value.

Kathy’s Favorite #4: The Sleep Solution by W. Chris Winter, MD 

As a busy mom and business owner, the quality of my sleep is extremely important to me—I’ll read any expert opinion about how to improve my sleep habits and feel better rested. This book by W. Chris Winter, MD (he’s been called “the sleep whisperer”), really opened my eyes to all of the factors in my life that contribute to whether or not I’m getting a good night’s sleep. I love that The Sleep Solution offers real, tangible tips for people of all walks of life. 

Kathy’s Favorite #5: Fall Coffee Table Styling

Finally, it wouldn’t be fall without a fun coffee table decor refresh in my living room! We recently did a KKH photo shoot in my home (so fun!) and I had the chance to play with some of our Harvest collection pieces and mix and match them with some of longtime faves. 

If you’re planning a an autumnal refresh, start with neutral toned trays and have fun mixing and matching seasonal greenery and foliage with stacks of white and earth toned coffee table books and conversation-starting keepsakes. I’m smitten with the arrangements below.
