It’s a funny thing about the business I’m in: the holidays literally start in May, and by the time August rolls around, I might be found cooking a turkey for a Thanksgiving photo shoot or setting the table for Christmas feast inspiration. So when December actually hits and the rest of the country is entering the frenzy […]
Fitting that Elizabeth Spruiell included a box set of J. D. Salinger novels in her gift guide — we’re pretty sure she’s descended directly from the Glass family. When she’s not cruising around breaking hearts in her 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser, this sharp oil and gas attorney is busy serving as the photo and music […]
I don’t know about you, but I (Jeanine) am not sure how the Christmas season snuck up so fast this year! Holiday parties are in full swing and I haven’t baked one cookie, shopped for one gift… and I have a tree somewhere in a storage unit (I’m allergic to the real thing). So, today, I have […]
It’s official: the holidays are in full swing and that means a calendar full of holiday parties. With those fabulous fetes come a handful of opportunities to kick your day-to-day look up a notch and try something new, so today I wanted to share some holiday makeup inspiration along with some do’s and don’t for […]
When we first discovered The Novo Project we were taken by both the site’s artful, free-spirited design and it’s strong sense of humanity. It felt like an experiment we wanted to be a part of. We’ve been reading ever since as founders (and best friends) Jenna Bush Hager and Mia Baxter share everything from backstage […]
It’s officially Christmas cookie season, and I don’t know about you, but I kind of never want it to end. Friends bringing by linzer cookies & bourbon balls for sampling, my mom and I comparing notes on which biscotti to make this year… it really is the most wonderful time of the year! My cookie […]
For her second round of printable holiday gift tags, Avalon says she “wanted to celebrate Christmas and make something happy… so I combined bold shapes with hand lettering.” Do you guys love it as much as we do? Either cut out and tied onto twine or ribbon, or printed onto adhesive paper and stuck onto […]
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 […]
Is anyone else a little shocked by the fact that Christmas is (brace yourself) two weeks away?! It’s time to get on that shopping list and check it twice – and our brand partners at Timex have launched a fab tool this season to help you do just that. I’m always a fan of anything […]
We love South Austininte Natalie Davis for her incredible minimalist style, and we can barely keep up with all she’s doing around town these days! When she’s not busy teaching class at Austin’s St. Edward’s University or planning the next event for Feliz, Natalie is creating gorgeous hand-tooled leather objects for her custom leather collection, […]
I had such a fun week hanging out with my San Fran-based friend, Caitlin, who was visiting Austin for the first time. We explored the city, played with Phoebe, and I was even lucky enough to have her styling prowess assisting on a holiday photo shoot! It was also super exciting to unveil the first […]
Do y’all choose your jewelry based on the outfit… or do you ever fall so in love with a sparkly gem or bauble that you actually plan your entire ensemble just so you can wear it? That was the challenge that my friends at JewelMint proposed to me, and since I’ll be attending a series […]
I’ve been looking forward to the holidays for a while now so I could take my mantle back. All year long there sits a giant television, so this is my time to have fun with the space. I’ve been wanting to place this wonderful portrait from Scott’s Antiques on the mantle, and surround it with some […]
We’ve been a big fan of New York City-based artist Samantha French ever since we discovered her work via Lonny Magazine. Her dreamy large-scale oil paintings remind us of summers past and have us wistful for pool-time in the future. We caught up with Samantha, who was kind enough to offer our readers a special […]
