This one has been an easy answer for me since 2020, when I read THE MIDNIGHT LIBRARY. It completely changed my life.

Since then, I have recommended it to countless people, and have felt intense amounts of joy as I’ve seen those people recommend it to others, buy copies for friends, suggest it for their book clubs, and come back to me to tell me how it changed their life just like it changed mine 🥰

Which book would you say changed your life for the better? 🤎

Why You Should Order a King of Christmas Tree This Year

This post is in partnership with King of Christmas. The Tribeca Spruce tree was sent in exchange for social media posts in 2023 and the Prince Flock tree was sent in exchange for a blog review in 2024. As always, all opinions are my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that support The Espresso Edition.

My Honest Review of the Prince Flock King of Christmas Tree by The Espresso Edition cozy lifestyle blog

I want to scream from the rooftops about my King of Christmas tree! My holiday decor dreams really have come true.

Several years ago, when I was still fully immersed in the world of fashion and lifestyle blogging, I learned about King of Christmas. It seemed like everyone and their mom had a beautiful tree from this company and if I’m being perfectly honest, I was definitely being influenced big time when I added their trees to my “future holiday home decor” wishlist. However, at the time, I had just purchased a simple Christmas tree for my first apartment and I wanted to get my money’s worth out of it. A couple of years back, that tree officially bit the dust, which meant it was time… time for a King of Christmas tree.

Now, I realize I’m incredibly lucky to be working with this brand (for the second time), but before I get into the full review, I just need to say very simply that I would absolutely fork over $400 for their Christmas trees in a heartbeat. Yes, they’re that good. Hand to heart, I’ve never seen more perfect artificial Christmas trees in my entire life and they have absolutely transformed my space this holiday season. If you want to know just why I’ve fallen so in love with my King of Christmas trees, keep reading!

Swipe through the photos below to check out the Tribeca Blue Spruce tree set up in my living room during the holiday season in 2023!

If you’re wondering what all the fuss is about, let me just give you my honest review of the King of Christmas trees.

First and foremost, you need to know that I decided on my first tree not only because I knew it would fit perfectly in the designated corner of my living room, but because it’s a Blue Spruce. If you happen to love the ’90s rom-com While You Were Sleeping as much as I do, you’ll know that there’s a whole scene with a Christmas tree fiasco that results in someone suggesting that the main character should’ve gotten a Blue Spruce. So naturally, this was the tree for me. Also, at 7′ tall and 53″ wide, this is such an excellent tree for a smaller space, while still making a statement. I have incredibly low ceilings, but still have room for a topper!

If I’m being completely transparent, I have avoided a flocked tree for years. As beautiful as they are, I was terrified of making a huge mess or creating an unsafe environment for my cat if the flocking decided to shed all over the carpet. However, I decided that since I had such an incredible experience with King of Christmas the first time around I’d give their 7′ Prince Flock tree a go and put it in my bedroom. I’m so incredibly glad that I did! Not only was the flock shedding (making that an official thing) minimal, but since it’s gone up, none of the flocking has fallen–even while decorating! I’m beyond pleased with this stunning tree.

I was very pleasantly surprised that both of my gorgeous trees also came with a metal stand, an off-season storage bag, protective “fluffing” gloves, and a remote! When I tell you this was the easiest set-up I’ve ever experienced with a Christmas tree, it’s the biggest understatement (and I’ve put up my fair share of artificial trees over the years). I walked away completely unscathed, thanks to the protective gloves, and I had so much fun choosing which of the 8 warm white LED light settings I liked the very most!

I was already sold on this company after adding the Tribeca Blue Spruce tree to my home, but now that I have added the Prince Flock tree as well, I can definitely say that this is my official King of Christmas tree stamp of approval. They’re picture-perfect, the highest quality, and no matter what your decor style is, there’s a King of Christmas tree that will suit it brilliantly.
