Pinterest Predicts just came out for 2024, and one of the coolest trends hitting the home next year is what they’re callin’ “Kitschens.” Kitschens bring the quirk, the eccentric, and of course, the colorful to kitchen spaces. In Pinterest’s words:
“They say the party always moves to the kitchen. But sometimes, the party is the kitchen. This year, Gen X and Boomers will quirk up their cooking areas with thrifted finds, vintage appliances and eye-jarring pops of paint. No minimalist aesthetic is safe.”
And I am all for it. Those eerily clean, devastatingly gray boxes they’re calling houses now should be eliminated. What happened to the joyous explosions of color around the house? The never-before-seen vintage pieces that stand out from the crowd? I take these things as clear signs of life – and you should be able to tell that people live freely in their homes.
So, in 2024, it’s only right to embrace a dose of color in a world of drab. (I imagine cool decor makes your meals taste better, too.) Kitschens should be filled with polka-dotty, zig-zaggy weirdness: bright appliances, mismatched utensils, borderline bizarre figurines and storage solutions. Here’s what to shop if you’re diggin’ the Kitschen.
Shop The Kitschens Trend

Mismatched anything goes along with the Kitschen aesthetic, and these utensils are sure to bring some joy into your cooking.

These pieces make a play on the vintage glassware of years past, but the vibrant colors really speak to the Kitschen trend.

Gisele Bündchen is a household name, no matter who her partner is — but it's no secret the supermodel made waves when she split from her football star husband, Tom Brady, in 2022. It's clear she's not holding on to the past, though. After dating Joaquim Valente for the past two years, the couple is officially expecting their first child together! Here's everything we know about Gisele's growing family!
Is Gisele Bündchen pregnant?

Yes! According to PEOPLE, an inside source told the outlet that the 44-year-old supermodel is officially expecting her third child. This is her first baby with current boyfriend, Joaquim Valente. The source said, "Gisele and Joaquim are happy for this new chapter in their life and they're looking forward to creating a peaceful and loving environment for the whole family."
Who is Gisele Bündchen's boyfriend?
Joaquim Valente is a jiu-jitsu professional at his family-owned studio, Valente Brothers. The 34-year-old continues a decades-long tradition of teaching this martial art to future generations — and his girlfriend!
These two have been linked together since 2022, but didn't start officially dating until June 2023 according to PEOPLE. In 2024, a source also told PEOPLE that this wasn't "a serious love affair," but the tides have clearly turned since then.
In March 2024, Gisele The New York Times, “This is the first time I am seeing someone that was a friend of mine first." She then noted, “It’s very different. It is very honest, and it’s very transparent.” She also was quick to deny that there was any overlap with her ex-husband, stressing that these types of rumors happen "to a lot of women" who "have the courage to leave an unhealthy relationship."
As for the most current state of Gisele and Joaquim's relationship? A source told Page Six, “Their chemistry together has always been there and they have a lot in common. They've been in love for a while." That being said, sources also told Page Sixthat they don't think the pair will get married "anytime soon." Despite Gisele being "thrilled" to welcome another child, her friends tell the outlet that the couple will just "live together for now."
Regardless, we're also thrilled for these two, and we hope their new child brings them so much joy!
How many kids does Gisele Bündchen have?
Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady have two children together — Bejamin Rein (14) and Vivian Lake (11). According to Page Six, a source says that these two "really like" Joaquim Valente, as he's been living with them in Miami "for a while." We just know these two will be fabulous siblings to the new little one, given the way they show so much love to their parents!
When did Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady get divorced?

Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady officially divorced in 2022. However, according to Page Six, this all started back in 2020 when Tom wouldn't retire from the NFL — and according to a source from PEOPLE, their problems date back as long as 10 years! Regardless, it's clear Gisele's moved on to a new chapter in her life. Good for her!
Has Tom Brady said anything about Gisele Bündchen's new pregnancy?
While sources told TMZthat Gisele Bündchen told Tom Brady about her pregnancy before the news broke to the general public, other sources told Page Sixthat he only just found out "very recently" — and apparently, he didn't find out from Gisele. Sources explained to Page Six that the ex-spouses "talk when they have to." So I guess this situation didn't exactly qualify as having to talk...
Still, a source close to the situation explained to Page Six that Tom was "stunned" to find out about the news. “Tom knew that things were serious between Gisele and Joaquin but he never imagined they would be having a child together,” they said. "“It just wasn’t something that was on his radar. So when Gisele broke the news to him he was stunned, to say the least.”
Tom hasn't made an official statement about Gisele's pregnancy, but he did take to Instagram on October 28. The former football star posted an image of the sunset, three hearts, and The Chicks' cover of "Landslide." The Stevie Nicks original is all about the changes life brings, so Tom's seemingly alluding to the changes coming in his own life.
And that same Page Sixsource noted that Tom's “grown used to the idea and he’s happy for Gisele.” They said, “At the end of the day, Tom’s sole focus is on his children and his career. What Gisele decides to do with her own life is really none of his business.”
Whatever happens next, we hope that this modern family navigates this new chapter with grace and love!

Decorating my apartment is one of my favorite new hobbies! I get to be creative, searching for small space-friendly home decor that still brings personality and life to every room. My apartment may not be my forever home, but that doesn't mean I can't create my own indoor piece of heaven. Since I know I can't convince my boyfriend that every inch of our apartment can't be Barbiecore, I can add tasteful pops of color here and there. I've looked high and low for the most beautiful coffee tables, worked to stylishly organize every room, and slowly added more feminine pieces — especially from lifestyle brand Love, Whit — to my space.

One of the first things that attracted me to this brand is it's unwavering commitment to providing cute lifestyle and home decor products that don't feel cheesy.

Not everyone creates a lifestyle brand, but Whitney Kerney isn't everyone. When I asked the founder about what inspired her to create this company, she said, "I've always believed in the power of a thoughtfully curated space and the healing powers that it can give off, especially as creatives." Keeping creative burnout in mind, she believes it's important for people to invest in what makes them feel good, especially at home.
She also said, "I wanted to create a lifestyle shop to reflect my love of pretty things and my deep-seated passion for a well-balanced lifestyle. More than that, I wanted to create a wellness platform dedicated to helping you feel your best and to become the best version of yourself."

Whitney's all about making sure Love, Whit's customers have a positive brand experience. More than that, she said, "We want our customers to feel inspired, uplifted, happy, and true to themselves with our products inside their homes.

“Amen,” all the Starbucks-frequenting vegans, lactose intolerants, and anti-dairy people said in unison. Starbucks is no longer charging extra for non-dairy milk customizations! Starting November 7, 2024, the coffee giant saidthey’re nixing the up-charge on alternative milks like soy, coconut, almond, and oat.
Starbucks
“At the heart of the Starbucks Experience has, and always will be, the ability to customize beverages and our baristas’ expertise in helping you find, and craft your Starbucks beverage,” a Starbucks announcement reads. “Substituting non-dairy milk in a handcrafted beverage is the second most requested customization from our customers, behind adding a shot of espresso.”
The chain reported that almost half of U.S. customers that pay for non-dairy milk could see a price reduction of more than 10%. The news comes amidst the company's recent 6% drop in sales, along with customer complaints that Starbucks is simply charging too much for their goodies – something the newly-appointed Starbucks CEO, Brian Niccol, seems to be addressing.
Starbucks
How much savings are we really talking about with this menu update? Most Starbucks stores charge $0.70 to customize your drink with soy, coconut, almond, and oat milks. Some locations in hotspots like New York City even see an up to $0.90 upcharge.
A regular Caffé Latte in my area (Denver, CO) costs $5.25, and if I were to customize it with an alternative milk, it brings the price up to $5.95 ($6.43 total with tax). That's around a 13% increase that I luckily won't be seeing anymore once the new non-dairy changes go into effect.
Starbucks also announced the pricing update on their Instagram page. Many commenters seem elated to hear the news.
“FINALLY!!!!!!” one user wrote.
“People should never have been getting charged because of allergies or dietary restrictions,” another person said. “It’s [about] time 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻”
“Good call as long as nothing else goes up,” someone else noted. “Prices are getting way [too] high even for a simple, non fancy coffee.”
