Sicily

In case you didn’t get enough of Sicily on my Instagram feed, thought I’d pop in on this holiday with a little recap of our trip — it was one of those places where it was literally impossible to take a bad photo, and I just have to share them with someone (#CantStopWontStop). So bear with […]

“Kitchen Sink” Halloween Chocolate Bark

I’m a little mystified as to why I haven’t experimented with chocolate bark before, because (a) it is ridiculously easy and so delicious, and (b) I’m not sure that I’ve ever had so much fun making a dessert! You can get real creative with throwing in all kinds of toppings (like I did here), marbling different […]

Entertaining With Joey Wolffer

I can’t think of a more fitting subject to cap-off a sunshine and rosé-filled summer than the queen of pink wine herself, Joey Wolffer, who co-owns her family’s namesake vineyard and has helped turn it into the liquid accessory of the summer. Speaking of accessories, Joey also runs The Styleliner, a mobile fashion truck that features independent […]

Over-The-Knee Boots

The number one sign that fall has arrived? (and no, I’m not talking about pumpkin spice lattés.) The arrival of a beautiful new pair of boots on my front porch, and an absolute craving to start wearing them despite the still 90-degree temps here in Austin. I’ve always been a boot girl; once October rolls around, I pretty […]

Mindful Mornings with Kick Pleat’s Inspiring Owner

Shop owner Wendi Koletar is a woman who inspires many adjectives: “She’s such a visionary,” “Wendi’s a total BOSS,” and “She has the best taste of anyone, ever,” are just a few of the descriptions I got when asking some of our mutual friends about the owner of style mecca Kick Pleat. With a gorgeous new 3,400-square foot […]

Spaghetti Squash Pasta with Goat Cheese, Arugula, & Bacon

You know when people say that a spaghetti squash pasta tastes “just like real pasta?” I hate to be the one to break the news, but usually, they’re kidding themselves. (It doesn’t help that, by the time you read this, I’ll be in Sicily eating all the pasta in sight… So I’m a little biased […]

The Lipsticks That Beauty Experts Can’t Live Without

They say that nothing makes you feel better than buying a new lipstick, and I’d have to agree: it’s the quickest, most affordable “splurge” that can improve a bad day and make you feel instantly more confident. But it’s equally great to have one go-to lip color in your arsenal that can always be relied upon to […]

Weekend Notes (from France!)

Can’t believe that by the time this post goes live, I’ll be in France getting ready for Chanel’s chateau wedding in the Loire Valley tonight. Our team has been counting down to this day for months, and I can’t wait to see the girl who started as my very first intern 6 years ago (and […]

Get Ready for Fall With These 7 Gorgeous Upgrades

On a routine trip to Sephora last September, I impulsively picked up a face mask that listed pumpkin as one of its main ingredients — who knew that the squash infuses your skin with antioxidants and gently exfoliates? I brought it home, opened the jar, and instantly my shower was filled with the most luscious […]

Why the First 10 Minutes Might Be the Most Important Part of Your Day

It only took Kelly’s post and about 15 episodes of this podcast to finally convince me to give meditation a try, and after two weeks of consistently starting my day with 10 minutes of Headspace, I’m already feeling more grounded, calm, and overall way more mindful as I go about my day. I think the reason it took […]

Layered Chocolate, Banana, & Date Shake

September is a month of new goals and fresh starts, and for many of us, that holds just as true in the food and drink departments. Did anyone else feel like the last half of summer held a few too many opportunities for overindulgences? I definitely hit my limit over the Labor Day weekend with 3 days […]

September 2016

September feels like it’s time to get a little bit serious again: putting away the beach reads in favor of that new memoir we’ve been meaning to read or trying out the podcast that’s finally going to help us start meditating. Then again, going back to work and school might also mean that you need a few diversions that are pure […]

These 12 Mascaras Are the Best of the Best

I have a feeling that most women’s “desert island” makeup choice would be mascara. There’s nothing that adds polish and prettiness quite like it, but there are also about a thousand different options (with new ones hitting the market daily) claiming longer, thicker, curlier, fuller, or more natural lashes. How’s a girl to choose? We polled […]

Weekend Notes

Morning, friends! Have to admit that I’m dragging a bit after a very late night celebrating a friend’s birthday — and hoping that this strong cup of coffee and a power walk around the neighborhood will help me rally and make the most of this gorgeous sunny Sunday. Do y’all feel like it’s a little […]

How to Setup a Home Recycling Station

I have a confession to make, and it’s a real one that I’m actually a little ashamed to admit. As much as I really do care about the environment and sustainability, we haven’t been that great about recycling at our house the last couple years. (There, I said it! Glad that’s off my chest.) Two kids running […]

The Prettiest Eggplant Dish Ever

Eggplants are one of my favorite things about end of summer produce — I always buy way too many at the store, and then… don’t really know what to do with them. That was before I discovered THIS incredible stuff-and-roast technique, shown in the video above. It’s the perfect party recipe because everyone can build their […]

Weekend Notes

Happy holiday weekend! Hope you’re enjoying every minute of it and soaking up the last bits of summer before we embrace fall in all its glory. Around here, we’ve been swimming like crazy, hanging with my brother who’s visiting from St. Louis, grilling fajitas and corn on the cob, walking around the city, and I […]

What Are Your Goals for Fall?

More than any other season, autumn just has that feeling that distinguishes it from the rest of the year. Maybe it’s the invigorating chill in the air, or the memories of going back to school, but fall always makes me feel extra motivated and (like Robin Williams’ prep school students in Dead Poets Society) ready to Carpe Diem. If […]

Fall Quesadillas with Apple, Radicchio & Pomegranate

It always happens around September 1st, just like clockwork: I’m relishing the warm weather and wishing that summer would never end, when BAM! I feel a cool breeze and leaf through the September issues of all my mags, and suddenly I’m as obsessed with fall as this guy. Without a doubt, my favorite thing about this […]

3 Easy Back-To-School Lunch Ideas

It seems like every parent I know (myself included) is frequently stumped over what to put in their kids’ school lunch box. It’s a balancing act between making lunch nutritious and interesting, while still packing items your kids will actually eat. Since Phoebe’s first day of school is today, I thought it would be perfect timing to […]
