Hey there, cuties! Coming to you live from the first day of Fall, 2021! Seriously–how did this happen? I feel like I was exploring France and splashing in my Southampton pool with my kiddos just yesterday! That’s the nature of time I suppose. And while it’s sad to say goodbye to summer, I will say that I am pleased to report that we’ve had a super-exciting and busy September here at KKH!
Namely, I’m thrilled to announce a new monthly feature here on The Kuotes Blog: A roundup and intro to all of the amazing Instagram partnerships we’ve launched over the past month. We worked with six absolutely amazing Instagram creators this past September and I can’t wait for you to fall in love with their content (get it? *FALL* in love? ‘Cause it’s…fall?!).
Of course, in my dearest hopes and dreams, you already follow @KathyKuoHome and @KKHSouthampton religiously and never miss a post or story–but in case you’ve been busy with your work, family, and hobbies and didn’t catch the deets about our September 2021 partnerships on the ‘gram…read on to get the scoop, shop the looks, and smash that follow button on Instagram on some truly inspiring ladies!

If you haven’t checked out Dallas-based blogger Nita Mann’s adorable blog (nextwithnita.com) and IG feed, you need to follow her ASAP! Nita is a new mama, a new homeowner, and just completely delightful. Her entrepreneurial spirit (she’s a law school grad-turned-lifestyle guru) and spot-on sense of style made a her perfect fit for an Instagram partnership with KKH. We worked with Nita on finding the perfect dining room table and chairs for her new home…and the result couldn’t be cuter. And how sweet is her fall tabletop styling?!
“We knew we wanted this room to be modern yet transitional at the same time and I just love how everything ties together. The table is from Kathy Kuo Home and the color is more of natural wood shade which matches our shelving in the kitchen. It has matte black iron legs that go perfectly with the chairs, which are also from Kathy Kuo Home!” ––Nita Mann writes on Instagram

June Quan | Instagram: @StirandStyle
Okay, so June Quan is not only the massively talented blogger behind the dreamy food blog Stir & Style, but she’s also an entertainment lawyer, a licensed realtor, and a twin-mama (prepare for cuteness overload: @theqttwins)! She and I share so many of the same passions–food and cooking, home style, entrepreneurship, modern motherhood–so when we connected with her and learned that she was looking to make over her living room, it was simply a match made in social media heaven!
“Our couch and marble coffee table from Kathy Kuo Home changed the whole space! We had our old couch and table for almost five years and our old media console for eight years. We loved it, but it was time for a change to match the new bright and airy feel we wanted in our home.” —June Quan writes on Instagram

Longtime Kuotes readers will remember the oh-so-lovely California-based blogger Kristy Wicks from when I worked with her on her blue and white dining room design about six years ago (you can see that project HERE). Since that initial partnership, it’s been an absolute joy to follow Kristy’s IG page and website (kristywicks.com) and watch her business and her following grow as she shares gorgeous travel, home, and food content. When Kristy was in search of new chandelier for her Santa Barbara home we knew we had the perfect piece for her!
“I absolutely LOVE [this chandelier…from the floral crystals to the stunning silhouette, it’s the perfect new light and airy piece for our Santa Barbara home.” —Kristy Wicks writes on Instagram

Blaze Shipley | Instagram: @BlazePresley
Who doesn’t love a super-sweet Texas girl who has an amazing eye for style, is obsessed with being a mom, and is a dedicated small business owner? Meet Blaze Shipley: Blaze is a Texas-based mama, content creator, and boutique co-owner (check out Grit + Grey for the cutest on-trend women’s clothing pieces). When she was in need of rustic, yet modern, coffee table to tie her living room together (but could still stand up to her active kiddos), I was thrilled to help her find the perfect piece.
“We got a new coffee table from Kathy Kuo Home…I’ve been so impressed with quality of all of [Kathy Kuo Home’s] pieces–everything is so good! Even though [this coffee table] is light, it’s been easy to keep clean, even with the boys!” ––Blaze Shipley says in her Instagram stories

It’s no secret here at KKH that we *love* Kendall Kremer and her blog Styled Snapshots! I first got to know Kendall when she was expecting her first child and we worked with her to design the sweetest gender-neutral nursery (I’m serious, do not sleep on this project; see it HERE). If you’ve been keeping up on your Kuotes posts this month, you’ll know that I was over the moon when my team and I had the chance to work with this chic mama (she’s currently expecting baby No. 2 any day now) on a breakfast nook in her new Connecticut home! You can see the full project reveal HERE.
“I fell in love with the chairs instantly–from the gold detailing on the back, to being comfortable and the best yet, performance fabric for all the little sticky fingers that will fill our household. And the table was the best surprise…it wasn’t something I would initially choose on my own and I love how it ties together with the darker wood tones in our kitchen right off this nook.” –Kendall Kremer

If you’re like me and obsessed with all things fitness, fashion, travel, and home…you’re going to want to immediately start following Jacqueline Fransway. This Florida-based lifestyle influencer has a vibe that’s as chic as it warm and fun, and I know that the #BachelorNation members of Team KKH love Jacqueline’s snaps with her Bach-contestant sister Whitney Fransway. When we heard from Jacqueline that she was shopping for a coastal media cabinet and coffee table, a partnership came together naturally!
