Usher said it best... these are my confessions!! If that doesn't give away my age, then this post will--instead of crazy trends I'm talking about my love affair of coffee table books. Gosh, my 20-year old self is probably laughing at me right now = oh goodness my how times have changed. Instead of splurging on a cute pair of platform heels, here I am perusing my favorite sites + shops for new coffee table reads and new mugs for my daily caffeine addiciton = see, my real life isn't all that ...
