Elle Florence on KZbin is the online, lighthearted diary of a corporate attorney by day, and a KZbin creator and fine jewelry designer on the side. I share this online content for a few reasons close to my heart over my last decade of KZbin:
1. To encourage women to start businesses that reflect their passions and personalities, without being afraid to flourish outside of the traditional corporate box.
2. To share some of my favorite aesthetic things that brighten my day.
3. To express the creative side of my personality, the fruits of how I spend my time creating new designs, and to celebrate local businesses I enjoy going to and supporting.

Welcome back! You don’t have to apologize for spending time with your family. Babies are only little for a short time. Enjoy it as much as you can and try not to feel guilty about choosing to take a break if you need too. Being the mama is the hardest job out there!

[@ElleFlorence]

Thank you! 💗

[@NettiieB]

I love your decorating style, it's classic but eclectic, very stylish. I would love a house tour! x

[@madamemaura]

wouldn't we all...lol...Elle used to be so great at giving us her latest home tours that I think we've been spoiled...lol

[@mgb5170]

Perhaps with her new family there is a desire for more privacy, yet I agree! I so admire Elle's ability to always quickly nest and create standards for her well being. A great reminder to make the day to day practical and beautiful.

[@Nerdbombshell]

Any video from you is a joy and a treat Elle!

[@MommyToMyBoys]

So happy to see a new video, Elle! Gigi is absolutely precious!!

[@susanvelez6534]

My dear trooper…. You will never really have time and baby and hubby and life comes first. I’m always here for you

[@CassiaMdB]

Gigi is adorable 😍🥰 Congratulations, Elle! Great to see you back!

[@madamemaura]

hi Elle...it's so nice to see you with a new video....I am glad to hear that you are back to work full-time, and juggling a busy mom life with also making jewelry...Elle, you are looking fantastic, and I am pleased to see this what you eat in a day video...

[@jenniferannfox2316]

hey Elle, I was so happy to see a video from you today. You are such a good cook! I'm enjoying my turquoise earrings so much. I also got the rose gold pearls for hoops and enjoying those. I'm glad you are doing well and hope you and your family are having a good holiday weekend!

[@ElleFlorence]

Thank you! You too, happy 4th!

[@den4971]

So great to see you! I thoroughly enjoy your what I eat in a day videos.

[@ElleFlorence]

Thank you!

[@jacintasalt8731]

I can relate to your outfit! Clothes postpartum was a trial and error for me. The weight came off slowly but the inches took even longer. I agree wholeheartedly to comfort over anything.

[@lashonnahines6809]

It’s so nice to see you upload again. I truly missed these videos. Enjoy your baby girl❤ We know you’ll be back as soon as time allows

[@ElleFlorence]

Thank you so much!!

Can I just say I love your cooking style/food choices! I love that you cook with butter, eat bread and cheese etc. food that is actually delicious and satisfying!

[@alexandrachartrand4056]

Je suis si heureuse de te revoir chère Elle! Je comprends très bien que tu aies dans ta vie de nouvelles priorités et j’apprécie que tu prennes le temps de faire une vidéo pour nous… Gigi grandit si vite et elle est magnifique et souriante! Tous tes plats semblent si délicieux… Miam, miam…😊

[@jowhatdoyouknow8383]

Great video Elle. What brand of pot was the pasta cooking in? Thanks for finding the time to post this.

[@ElleFlorence]

Probably my all clad one which is the nicest although I have 3 pasta pots so it’s hard to be sure!

[@Kimgoad]

Your food blogs are always my favorites ❤

[@all_things_home]

Love your videos each time you upload. ❤

[@ms.23]

What a delightful notification! ☺

[@thrivingdevelopment2317]

I bake all the bread my small family eats and I can tell you, different types of flour will produce different results. The all purpose flour (480 type) works great, it produces a softer bake, and bonus point, if you want an extra soft crust, brush your bread loafs with an egg wash and put it on a lower rack if your oven runs hot. Other types of flour such as 700 types, or whole wheat, etc. Produce a crustier, hardier bread and also need more time to prove due to their higher gluten content. I sometimes make the dough the evening before, leave it on the counter for 30 minutes to give the east some time to do it's thing, then I put it in the fridge in a covered bowl over night . The next day you take it out, form the bread, and let it prove a little bit ( 30-45 minutes) before baking

[@lynettejohansson5873]

😊I truly ejoy your videos with your beautiful baby girl!❤😊 Congratulations to your and your husband Ella😊🎉 thank you for your inspiration yesssss! Aways LOVED also your Fashion outfits causal and dressy 😮😮

[@makeuplover6852]

So lovely to see a ne video from you, Gigi is gtting so big!! I always enjoy your cooking, I have never seen you cook or bake something that I was like "nah"...and I dont even eat fish or seafood lol. (Allergic|) I highly recomend growing fresh basil it is very hearty, I have really good luck with it and you could easily grow lettuce in those litle platers attached to your deck railing. I bought a verticak garden last summer wow it is amazing, I am really blown away how easy it is to grow many things, I did tomatoes, Strawberries, 3 types of lettuce, red peppers, and a bunch of herbs, and several other root veggies. The lettuce blew me away at how fast it grew and you just keep clipping it off and its like a hair cut or that chia pet thing, ha ha in 2 hours with some water and good sun there is a few new inches of new lettuce already grown, in 48 hours you can almost harvest again. We at a lot of salads all summer and it was pretty cool to be able to supply my own lettuce, cucumers, tomatoes and other things ! I encourage you to just buy the starter plants ( I get mine here in Ontario at Sobeys, so I suspect you should be able to buy them there at a grocery store. They just come in a bag with the roots well started and there will already be some lettuce growing, this is what I did to start my whole vertical garden. I just am not ahead of the curve enough to start from seed. What I eat in a day are one of my fave type of videos from you :)

[@annaburke8537]

I loved waking up to this! Watched it while feeding my daughter in bed 🥰

[@ElleFlorence]

Love that, twins, I’m reading this while I do the same and she’s very squirmy today making it a little more challenging haha!

[@annaburke8537]

@@ElleFlorence My goodness sometimes I feel like I'm in a wrestling match with her.

[@vickyjensen2590]

Yummy food, yummy baby GiGi! I think she looks like Grandma a bit !

[@nadia-theviewisbeautiful1442]

Lovely to see you again! Though completely understand wanting to prioritize being as present with Gigi as possible so no pressure to make content that doesn’t align with your life at the moment! I feel that PP clothing comment - nothing was more depressing to me than trying on my old clothes that I was looking forward to wearing again when I got home from the hospital. Embracing that it’ll be a while before some of my wardrobe is going to feel good again was tough, but just ordered some size up bottoms because you’re so right we deserve to be comfortable. I’ve been loving adding white beans to a pasta salad with Sundried tomato, asparagus, arugula, dill, basil and a lemony feta vinaigrette. They add the creaminess and protein - so good and filling!

[@HadasTheGreat]

I love this, you and Gigi are so beautiful ❤

[@LIVEINPEACE2023]

Yaaay!!! 😄❤🤩

[@VoluptuousLynn]

Congratulations on marriage and motherhood. Your hair looks fabolous with no dry shampoo.

[@lauramarazzi1012]

Missed your WIEIAD! You're such a great cook!

[@ElleFlorence]

thank you!

[@elombetv6429]

I miss these type of videos from you ❤

[@5piinks684]

love love love

[@thespongepuppy]

I wanna upgrade my dinners. This was a recipe I could definitely handle.

[@gamecockgirl2009]

What is the brand of whipped feta you use?

[@ElleFlorence]

I made it myself, just toss 1 pack feta in food processor along with 1 spoon of sour cream or yoghurt and some olive oil

[@gamecockgirl2009]

@@ElleFlorence Thank you so much!!

Lovely video Elle, Gigi is so beautiful and happy ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ you look great 🤗🥰 the food looks delicius 😋 ❤❤

Pinch your herbs on top and they will grow more

Gigi is beautiful Elle 👶 so cute! The food you cooked looked so nice. 😚

[@ElleFlorence]

Thank you! 🤗

[@shulamitkalish3060]

Welcome to motherhood, you will never enjoy a hot drink again 😂

[@rosecolouredglasses]

Please do a kitchen fridge pantry tour. You have great taste and find all the best gourmet ingredients

[@ElleFlorence]

Great idea!

[@jenniferdelacruz4276]

Elle & Gigi! 💖💖

[@Meemz672]

Can I ask whether Gigi goes to daycare or if you have a nanny? Sorry to intrude, I’m asking because God willing I’m expecting my first in a few weeks and I’m trying to figure out whether I’ll be able to work from home effectively whilst looking after her I don’t know what to expect!

[@ElleFlorence]

Not intrusive, Gigi has a wonderful nanny who was upstairs with her during the video. I want to protect nanny’s privacy but also happy to acknowledge how helpful having her is! She only comes for a few hours a day now, but as Gigi grows up a bit more she will come for longer. 💗

[@samantarizzi248]

@@ElleFlorence thank you for your honesty 🙂

[@Meemz672]

Thank you so much for sharing, this is really helpful. I think that’s probably what we’ll need to do too though husband seems to be against the idea and I’m just not sure how else I can manage 🫤

[@priscillanash3543]

I was wondering the same thing. I’m kind of the same situation, it’s difficult to work and watch a baby.

[@ElleFlorence]

It depends on how much your baby naps haha. Gigi sleeps very well during the night but hard core resists more than a short nap. Therefore we need more nanny hours than we thought we might haha. I feel like the luckiest person in the world to get to be home with her most of the time though, so grateful for that.

Coming soon!

[@amandastempel8677]

Where are the greek beans from? I am local. Thank you-love watching your cooking.

[@jacintasalt8731]

Watching that pasta boil was strangely satisfying. How did the chicken end up tasting?

[@ElleFlorence]

Good! The sauce was perfection. I’d make it without rolling it up next time, and pan fry flat so you get the crispy prosciutto 🤤

[@zainanasra3767]

Was this filmed on the same day? I'm surprised your nail polish color changed 3 times in one day 😂 it started red then pink then a darker red 😅 just curious

[@ElleFlorence]

I tried a new nail gel kit and wasn’t a fan which is why I actually edited out clips relating to it because it really damaged my nails. I don’t remember what I used to fix it but I think it’s a regular polish you see at beginning and end; lighting just makes it look different.

[@murzik1565]

Girl, you need a new oven, it’s relatively not that much money and it’s way worth it for someone who regularly uses it. We moved into our new house last year and also had an issue where it was too hot, more specifically i feel like the temp couldn’t be controlled well enough and/or showed inaccurate. Get a new oven 😊
