Pretty Simple :: Camille’s Beauty Essentials

One of my favorite parts of blogging is that we get to feature so many creative, chic people’s beauty and style tips… I’m constantly picking up new tips to add to my routine! Lately though, I’ve been getting a lot of requests to share some of my beauty essentials, and the truth is, I’ve amassed quite… read more


My Essentials :: Christian Remde

We were lucky enough to meet filmmaker Christian Remde a few months ago and I think it’s safe to say we haven’t stopped talking about him since. We were working with Paul Qui (of Top Chef acclaim) to shoot an installment of our “Entertaining With” series when he asked if we’d like to create a… read more


My Essentials :: Kristen Turner

Ever since I happened upon the DIY hub that is Glitter n’ Glue, I’ve been thinking twice about heading out to the mall to score the season’s latest trends.

My Essentials :: Olga Vidisheva

I can probably think of about a million reasons why I love New York, but each time I visit The Big Apple, the city’s shopping makes my heart pitter patter above all else. Namely, it’s the tiny boutiques tucked away on each street that have inventories bursting with carefully curated designs that — for some… read more

Her site is the perfect reflection of her personal style, which she dubs “casual, classic, with a dash of preppy for good measure” (we concur!). Plus, what’s… read more


My Essentials :: The Doctor’s Closet

Ever since I spotted Monika’s home on Glitter Guide, I knew we had a stylish girl on our hands — from her interiors, to her blog, to her jewelry shop, she infuses a beautiful, feminine aesthetic into everything she designs. We’ve become such fans of hers (and seriously can’t take off our BFREND bracelets), that… read more


My Essentials :: Wit + Delight

Confession: I’ve had a bit of a girl crush on Kate Arends for quite a while now…not only does she have amazing taste, but the girl can design in a major way. Kate’s blog, Wit + Delight, is oozing with food, fashion and interior inspiration…and my crush only intensified when I spotted this recent feature of… read more


My Essentials :: Amy Atlas

who + what: For many of you, Amy Atlas‘s talents need no introduction. As the original ‘sweets designer‘, Amy practically revolutionized the way we see desserts, and helped us say ‘buh bye‘ to the days of doilies (in the traditional sense, at least). We’ve been fans of Amy’s of years, so we’re thrilled that the… read more


My Essentials :: Eat Drink Chic

who + what: Amy Moss, graphic designer turned stylist, and the creator of lifestyle blog, Eat Drink Chic. Based in Australia (jealous?), Amy’s site is oozing with color, creativity and humor to boot, and is one of our favorite destinations on the web to soak up daily entertaining inspiration. In one word, Amy describes her personal style… read more
