Can love, real love, be found as the result of a swipe? It’s the question that so many of my single friends and I have been discussing as more of them embrace the world of online dating. Love ’em or hate ’em, dating apps are an integral part of love in the modern world, and since […]
2016 was the year that I finally boarded the persimmon train. I know, I know: those of you who were early adopters are shaking your heads in bewilderment that I’ve made it this far in my adult life without falling in love with persimmons, but there you have it. I’d always walk right past the […]
My hot hair tool use has gone through many phases: the sleek straight flat irons of college, va va voom hot rollers of my twenties, the more recent medium barreled curling iron beach waves, and countless other looks in between. The only constant? Finding the perfect hot tool for my hair type has been the […]
Morning, y’all! We’re in recovery mode over here after hosting a 70th birthday party for my father-in-law at our house last night that last until the wee hours. Anyone else feel like it’s gonna be a coffee on repeat kind of day? Thankfully I rounded up some great reads from around the web earlier this week […]
“Think before you speak.” It’s a maxim that’s been drilled into most of our heads since childhood, so why is it so difficult to actually put into action? I’ll admit, my natural tendency is to say what pops into my head first, but as I get older, I’m realizing how crucial it is to choose my words carefully. […]
Morning, friends! Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend so far. It’s suddenly freezing in Austin, so we’re putting our best efforts towards keeping a 1 and 4 year old entertained indoors this weekend. Yesterday we hit up The Thinkery museum, went for a long brunch, and I took Phoebe to see a live musical of Charlotte’s Web […]
photo by simon emmett for glamour uk It’s no secret that I’m a bit brow obsessed (you can read about my brow journey here), and I’m definitely not the first to preach that full, well-groomed brows are the quickest way to a naturally gorgeous look. But with all the new brow products that hit Sephora […]

Granola is one of my biggest weaknesses. I think it’s something about that sweet-salty-crunchy combo; if I know it’s in the pantry, resistance is futile. Since I’m not planning to ban granola from my life any time soon, I’ve been making lots of homemade versions that are way healthier than the processed sugar-laden ones you usually find at […]

The most blissful part of the holidays is having time to truly relax, amiright? The week between Christmas and New Year’s is one of the only times of the year when I don’t feel guilty for spending an entire day lounging by the fire, hanging out with family and getting up only to pour another cup of […]
With Christmas in the rearview mirror, we’ve officially reached that point in the season where I start feeling the itch for warmer temps and swimsuit weather. Luckily, Austin’s winters are so short that we really don’t have that long to wait (sorry, rest of the country), and as a result I usually start incorporating springtime flavors into my […]
photo of haven’s kitchen from lonny mag Merry Christmas Eve, friends! Earlier this week, I listened to an episode of Gretchen Rubin’s podcast called “Set Your Holiday Intention” and I keep finding myself sharing its core message with friends — it really resonated with me, and I bet it will with a lot of you, too. At […]

Okay, so maybe a scented candle isn’t the most original gift, but c’mon: have you ever met a person who didn’t love receiving one? Especially when said candle has the coolest packaging, is made of clean-burning soy wax, and lasts for 60 (or more) hours. We polled our beauty council members to find out which scented […]
Alright you guys, we’re kicking off 2017 with quite possibly my favorite project we’ve ever done on CamilleStyles.com: the team and I have been planning the #31Mornings Challenge for months now, and I’m thrilled to finally spill the details today. The challenge kicks off January 1st, and we’re inviting YOU to join us in making the first 31 […]
It’s the weekend before Christmas. I know: how did that happen? Every year I think this season is going to stretch out and there will be time to do so many Christmas-y things, and then by the time I’ve had a chance to check a couple of them off the list, it’s done! But you know […]
New Year’s Day just might be the most underrated holiday – what could be better than kicking off the new year by sharing a meal with a few of your closest friends? To start 2017 on the right foot, we teamed up with Pints and Plates to throw a festive brunch that features a Michelada bar […]
If you’re anything like me, holiday madness is already in full swing, and let’s just say that “updating my beauty routine” is pretty far down the ‘ole to-do list. But one glance at my calendar reminds me that I’ve got a few highly anticipated occasions on the horizon (our annual holiday dinner party, nights out […]
You guys, this is undoubtedly one of the best giveaways we’ve ever done, and the deadline is quickly approaching! Seize the moment and enter now right here. We’ve teamed up with a few of our favorite sites to give away the ultimate gourmet getaway in Paris, complete with $1000 airfare, a 2-night stay at the gorgeous […]
Especially leading up to the holidays, the home decor section of Target is truly my happy place. It drives Adam completely crazy when we run in to grab one necessity, then an hour later roll out our grocery cart laden down with Christmas ornaments, wrapping paper, holiday candles, clothes for the kids, and usually some […]
Hey friends, hope you’re all having a cozy holiday vibe-filled weekend. Yesterday we bundled up and took the kids out for brunch and a long chilly walk around the city, then spent the afternoon wrapping gifts, mailing cards, and watching Christmas movies (Phoebe’s obsessed with The Grinch.) Later, Adam and I stole away for a […]
If you asked Instagram, 2016 could have been the year of the cheese board. And is it any surprise? Few culinary creations are as photogenic as a big wood cutting board brimming with colorful cheeses, fruits, meats (and lots more if you get creative), and I’ve got to admit, it’s a trend I don’t think I’ll get […]
What a week! I always forget how busy the holiday season gets, until December 1st arrives and suddenly it feels like someone yelled “on your mark, get set, go!” Of course, I know that busyness is partially within my own control – I choose how many thing I say “yes” to and often overcommit around […]
