This has been my go-to beach bag all summer out east with a toddler! It fits everything we need for long beach days and somehow still keeps me feeling organized through all the chaos.
I love collaborating with some of my favorite brands on the planet. It’s truly a dream come true to create authentic content that brings their brand ethos to life. Shop my videos to be part of it too.
I partnered with Roller Rabbit on the sweetest Nina Ballerina pajama collection campaign, inspired by my daughter, Nina. We brought the collection to life with a special three-generation shoot featuring Nina, my mom, and me in matching pajamas—a full-circle celebration of motherhood, family, and the little moments I’ll cherish forever.
My hospital bag MVP?! @MagneticMe! The softest fabrics, the easiest magnetic closures, and one less thing to think about when bringing home a newborn. Use discount code KATIESANDS20 sitewide to stock up on products.
Shooting this campaign with Petite Plume with my grandma Gummy, my mom, my sister, and Benny, while carrying baby girl at 9 months pregnant, is a moment I’ll hold onto forever. I feel so deeply blessed to be surrounded by such incredible women who have shaped me, guided me, and shown me what motherhood and unconditional love truly look like. Having this kind of love and support around me, my village, means everything.
I’ve learned that the right bag can truly make your day feel easier. I’ve been reaching for my Baggallini bag nonstop lately because it’s lightweight, organized (like actually organized), and somehow still looks elevated. It fits everything I need for me and the kids without feeling like I’m carrying a diaper bag… which is key.
No one really tells you how overwhelming building a registry can be. There are so many options and opinions. Using Bloomingdale’s made it feel way more manageable for me. Everything is in one place, the process is super straightforward, and it just simplified something that could’ve been stressful. Sharing in case you’re in the same phase! Registry items here!
Designing a space can feel overwhelming, especially when you want it to feel like you. Working with Havenly to design my office made the whole process feel so much easier. Having someone help bring my vision to life (while keeping it functional for real life) was everything. It just took all the guesswork out of it. Sofa, Desk, Rug, Chair.
I’ve said it before, but taking care of yourself during pregnancy and postpartum hits different. It’s not just about you anymore, but you still matter just as much. I’ve been using Perelel because it feels simple, intentional, and actually designed for every stage I’m in. No guessing, no overwhelm, just what my body needs right now. It’s one of those small daily things that makes me feel a little more grounded in the chaos. If you’ve been thinking about trying it, you can use my code KATIE20
Back in my J.Crew era and not looking back. Clean lines, timeless pieces, and that perfect mix of tailored and relaxed. It’s understated, pulled together, and wearable for real life. Exactly how I want to dress right now. Check out my J. Crew picks.

It organizes your entire wardrobe digitally and lets you style looks from what you already own. It’s giving Cher Horowitz energy, but actually functional.
Obsessed is an understatement.
