9 Yoga Moves That’ll Improve Your Posture

You guys don’t need me to tell you all about the benefits of yoga; that the practice improves flexibility, balance and strength is common knowledge at this point. But did you know that the exercise can also work wonders for your posture (which some might say, could better your life overall)? It’s amazing what all […]

11 Best Lace-Up Sandals

You know when a trend comes along that makes you wonder how you ever lived without it? That’s how I feel about lace-up sandals. I just love ’em. After acquiring my first pair of classic flat black beauties, it became clear I needed every color and heel height variation out there. So since I’m spending a […]

Hot dog! The Ultimate 4th of July Spread

I’ll let you in on a little insider secret: we’re kind of obsessed with hot dogs. It’s weird, we know, but for years hot dogs have been a shared affinity among our entire team, manifesting in the form of group texts featuring hot-off-the-grill dogs, and a countdown to the most frank-friendly day of the year, The 4th of […]

12 Best Cut-off Shorts for Summer

Working on today’s round-up, I realized how much we live in a style bubble in Austin. There’s definitely a certain look to the girls in this town, and during the summer months it’s more apparent than ever: cut-off shorts, everywhere. I’ll admit, I’m guilty too! But nothing compares to putting on my light-washed, low slung, super distressed boyfriend […]

13 Coolest Rompers for Summer

I have some friends who have been rocking rompers for years (myself included), and it’s no wonder why: once you get used to the ease and comfort of wearing the adult equivalent to a child’s playsuit, it’s just about the only thing you want to put on. But it wasn’t until this past year that I […]

Creating a Personal Photo Album

Saturday mornings are a treasured time of the week for me and Eric. We wake up when our bodies tell us to, open the windows (rain or shine), blast some music, then work together to make a breakfast out of whatever ingredients remain in our fridge after the week’s homemade lunches and dinners. The entire saga […]

12 Online Shops You Need to Know About

If I’m being completely honest, we were a bit hesitant to share today’s post. While we’re all for the greater good, we’re equally aware that sharing our little black book of online shops means that they’re no longer our little secret. And with that, we can say goodbye to elusive where-did-she-get-that stares and complementary “where do you shop?” […]

A Marie Antoinette Bridal Shower

Four months into my engagement, and I’ve learned that planning a wedding is a full time job. Lesson #1: If any event — like an engagement party, a bridal shower, a bachelorette party — can be passed off to friends or family, you’d be wise to give them complete autonomy over planning. I was originally reluctant to […]

From Marnie, owner of MOD Fitness: Summer comes early for us in Texas, so we like to incorporate these fat-blasting moves at MOD Fitness during the spring to increase your heart rate and tone the entire body. Grab your stopwatch and do each of these exercises for one minute, then repeat the set twice for […]

A Laid Back Mother’s Day Picnic

I can’t help but feel the pressure when it comes to Mother’s Day. I find myself trying to plan the ideal day for Mom, and hoping to perfect every last detail — the food has to be good, the gifts just right, and the heartfelt message in the greeting card? If that doesn’t draw a tear or two, I’ve failed […]

Jessi & Chloe

During her time on the Camille Styles team, Jessi was obsessed with dogs. The two of us would unwind at the end of almost every workday by googling puppy photos and researching breeds… in fact, our ongoing conversation was a big part of what inspired the Fox & Hound series! Shortly after Jessi spread her wings to pursue fashion blogger-dom […]

Why You Should be Composting

I’ve been telling myself that “I really need to start composting” for a long time. For years, actually. I’m not sure why it took me so long to get started — for some reason, I felt intimidated by it all, and thought that composting would pose a huge lifestyle change. Turns out, it’s one of the […]

Colombia

Rule #1: Forget everything you think you know (and don’t mention that Netflix show.)

A Bohemian Earth Day Picnic

I heard a staggering report on the news this morning: Did you know that in the next century, it’s now estimated that our sea levels could rise 6 ft? That might not sound like much, but it’s double the amount that scientists had previously predicted, meaning our generation and our children’s generation could be more directly affected […]
