Equal parts warmth and high style.

If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you may have noticed that I’ve been in LA working on a super secret project with Target (and bursting with excitement to spill the beans on what it’s all about.) Well my friends, today is the day: I’m so thrilled to announce that Target has asked me to […]
Good morning from sunny LA! I flew in yesterday to kickoff an exciting project that I can’t wait to tell you guys all about (soon!) but in the meantime, Chanel and I have managed to squeeze in a ridiculous amount of fun and amazing meals already. We snagged an invite to the garden party celebrating […]
I’ll admit I’m not the best at-home manicurist, but there’s no question that having the right polish makes the job 10x easier for us amateurs. We polled our beauty council of experts to find out their tried-and-true polish picks, and many of these do triple duty by strengthening, conditioning, and adding the perfect no-chip shade of […]
Badass moms, unite.
Happy weekend, y’all! It’s been sunny and gorgeous here in Austin, and we spent yesterday soaking it up on the golf course at PGA’s WGC-Dell Match Play Championship. It was my first golf tournament ever and we had a total blast — I posted all about the day on my Insta stories, and am now totally wanting to […]
Australia is having a major moment around our office lately. It seems like just about every new food trend, cool girl fashion label, and design-forward boutique hotel we talk about just happens to come from down under, so much so that we’ve even coined a new phrase: “That’s so Aussie.” In case you’re wondering, we mean it as […]
Not sure when exactly it happened, but recently, I’ve been referred to as an OG blogger. It’s true that when I started the site almost 8 years ago, lifestyle blogging still felt a bit like the wild west; we were experimenting and trying out new ways of creating content just because it made us happy — I had no idea […]

Head over here for all the party details and watch the video above to see the party in action. *big thanks to our party partners! WhoWhatWear, kate spade new york, W3LL PEOPLE, Veuve […]

Morning, friends! It’s been a couple weeks since our last edition of Weekend Notes — if you’ve been following on Insta, you’ve seen that things have been a little SXSW crazy around here and it’s been a constant juggle of work and kids and festival. Yesterday was the grand finale, and we soaked up the sunshine, […]
For me, a good hair day equals one where my hair has as much volume as possible (go ahead and let the Texas big hair jokes fly, I can take it.) I’ve tried just about every trick under the sun, from shampoos to sprays to special brushes, and only a few have resulted in hair […]
photos by mary costa I sometimes say that I’m a California girl, even though I wasn’t born there and have never actually lived there (is that weird?) It’s more wishful thinking than anything else; every time my flight touches down in LA, or San Diego, or San Francisco (I could go on and on… California […]
photos by Ashleigh Amoroso On our first date, Adam picked me up and whisked me away to… the diviest Chinese restaurant I’d ever seen. In hindsight, it was totally out of character for a guy who loves his high-end dining, but since we worked together at the time, we were kind of keeping things on the […]
When our team member Landrie relocated from New York to Austin last year, I couldn’t believe the coincidence when she moved into the same sixplex as our close friend and collaborator, photographer Kate LeSueur. Later, she casually mentioned that Natalie Marchbanks lives across the hall, and that Caitlin Ryan and Jessica Thompson are in a house a few […]
featured image via brandy melville usa The past few weeks, I’ve actually been making it into bed by 9pm with enough time to dive into a good book before turning off the light. I sleep so much better when I get some reading time in beforehand! This month’s roundup includes my new go-to weeknight cookbook, […]
Happy weekend, friends! It’s rainy here today, and I’m looking forward to a cozy day of cooking, errands with the fam, and closet organizing. Is it crazy that those activities make me feel so excited lately? It feels like a welcome break from the faster pace of the workweek — a breath of fresh air that gets me […]
Have I mentioned that I *might* be slightly addicted to sweet potatoes? Yes? Well, fortunately it’s a habit I’m not the slightest bit ashamed of, since sweet potatoes are chock full of vitamins A, C, and B6, plus fiber and potassium, and they are one of the most delicious foods on the entire planet. My love for […]
In my purse you’ll usually find no fewer than 5 lip glosses, and it seems I’m not the only one: just peek inside the handbags of the rest of our team for proof. There’s something about lip products that begs to be part of a collection that includes one for every mood, outfit and weather condition. Of […]
Happy weekend, y’all! Hope it’s been a good one so far. I’ve been reading this book that a friend gave me, called Present Over Perfect: Leaving Behind Frantic for a Simpler, More Soulful Way of Living. I knew before I even opened it that it was exactly what my life is needing right now. Like so […]
It was 80 degrees in Austin last weekend, and I threw on a bikini and jumped in the pool. Nevermind that it’s the middle of February; that one hot day was all it took to send me into total countdown-to-summer mode. Over the past few days, I’ve ordered a new swimsuit, sipped a margarita, and […]
Morning, friends! This weekend has so far been my absolute favorite kind: tons of sunshine, brunch with my sister, reading new books, making dinner on the grill, and yes — we actually spent a few hours in the pool yesterday (in February!) Crazy, I know. Work has felt incredibly busy lately between a really full shooting […]
photo via camille styles Even for those of us who love our jobs, the Sunday night blues are for REAL. I’ve noticed that especially when I’ve had a fun and carefree weekend, the transition back into the structure of the work week can be a tough pill to swallow. In an effort to take back my Sunday […]
I’m sure many of y’all have heard of the cheekily-named “Engagement Roast Chicken” that’s reported to be so good, any man will fall in love on the spot. All due respect to Ina, but I’ve got my own chicken recipe that’s equally simple to make and, thanks to it’s crispy exterior and gorgeous presentation, even more effective at convincing […]
Good morning, friends! What are y’all up to this weekend? I got home from LA on Thursday night, so it’s been *heaven* to mostly stay home, hang with the fam, and soak up this unseasonably sunny weather we’re experiencing in Austin. So far, the weekend has consisted of a date night with some great friends, […]
