Though neutrals seem to be all the rage these days, it’s no secret that I’ve always had a deep love for bold patterns and rich textures, decadent sweets and unruly cocktails. Ashley here, and I suppose you could say my style sensibility is luxe-yet-bohemian. This particular photo shoot was inspired by the deep red color… read more

Mark & Graham Challenge :: A Crimson Holiday
Narrowing down the palette for my holiday table is always a bit of a conundrum: I adore a crisp, snowy white look… but then again, nothing’s cozier than tartan plaid… and I’m always a sucker for an evergreen palette that lets me incorporate lots of classic boxwood. Which is why it’s so fun to get… read more
Pretty Simple :: In the Red
There isn’t anything more glamorous than a perfect set of red lips. When done right, a rouge pucker can glam up your look from daytime to evening and create a show stopping smile. If you’re like me (Martha Lynn), the countless products out there can be totally overwhelming, and fear of looking like a clown… read more
Monochromatic Monday :: Oxblood & Indigo
I’ve always thought of oxblood as kind of vampy (a look that doesn’t really work on me) but this season the dramatic deeper-than-burgundy shade has taken a more sophisticated turn. As designers marched it out on runways and I began to notice it showing up in cocktails and autumnal sweets, oxblood suddenly feels like a… read more

Good Saturday morning, m’dears! I’m feeling much more rested after a week that was busy without being total chaos the way that the beginning of the month was. It’s hard to find that perfect balance, isn’t it? Today we’re getting a few things done around the house (I’ll be showing you guys a nursery update on… read more
My Life, Styled :: Pattern Play
Adding depth and texture to your outfits during the winter is easy: layer scarves on top of jackets on top of knits on top of tees and so forth. But in the heat of summer when temperatures are nearing triple digits, our layering abilities are seriously impaired, which is why I (Jen) love to use… read more
Monochromatic Monday :: Caprese Salad
In the three years that we’ve been married, Adam and I have visited some amazing places together…and sometimes just for fun, we look back and choose our favorite moments, meals and memories from all our travels. Our honeymoon to Capri and Rome often wins in every category, and always wins when it comes to the food.… read more
Monochromatic Monday :: Memorial Day BBQ
Um…is it really Monday already? We stumbled in the door late last night after catching two flights to get home from San Diego. It felt amazing to sleep in my own bed after a week of traveling…but I’ve gotta be honest – I could have definitely used a couple more hours. I suppose my cappuccino and… read more
