5 Favorite Coffee Table Books
What you keep on your coffee table says so much about your personality. Maybe it’s just a stack of the latest magazines and the TV remote controls. Maybe it’s a carefully curated tray with candles and special knick knacks. Or maybe like me, you have a thing for coffee table books–and fresh flowers. It’s taken me quite a few years, but I’ve collected a varied mix of fashion, lifestyle, travel and design books that reflect my personal taste and style. I love displaying them on my coffee table to flip through periodically–or to provide entertainment for my guests–and today I thought I’d share my six favorite books. Flip through the slideshow to see a glimpse inside each one, and comment below if you have any other favorites in your collection!
