Knitting Without Needles Wall Art

As much as I love crafting, knitting has always been uncharted territory for me. I’m not sure why — I’ve heard it’s not that hard — but something about the craft has always felt unattainable and intimidating. Well, today’s DIY from Anne Weil just might be the gateway project that finally launches me into knitting. Featured in Anne’s new book Knitting Without […]

6 Yoga Poses for Relieving Stress

Given the amount of time we spend sharing fitness tips around the office and going to workout classes as a team, it’s a wonder it’s taken us this long to dedicate a regular series to staying fit.

Caramelized

Today’s Entertaining With feature has us flush with emotion. As a Camille Styles intern, Cara Greenstein rocked our worlds with her love of everything food, and her knack for whipping up culinary creations in a flash. Fast forward just a few short years, and our little grasshopper has moved back to her hometown of Memphis, where […]

Miami Beach

After weeks of agonizing over where to travel over the long Labor Day weekend (woe is me!), we finally came to a decision: Miami Beach, baby. Seriously, what’s not to love about this place? With endless beaches, fresh seafood at every corner, and art and shopping galore, just a few visits have landed this city at […]

How to Work a Room When You Don’t Know a Soul

Whether you’re newly single and ready to mingle or traveling for work to a far away conference, there’s nothing more unsettling than finding yourself in a room full of strangers. And if you have any bit of social anxiety, the thought of all those unfamiliar faces could be enough to deter you from attending an event altogether… and what do you have to gain […]

Is Riesling the New Rosé?

Move over Rosé, there’s a new summer wine on the scene. It’s a bold claim, we know, but ever since our recent Riesling tasting a few weeks ago, every member of our team is a total convert. Sure, it could have been the picturesque scene at Jeffrey’s that had us feeling fuzzy, or the guidance of […]

Avocado Carpaccio

Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my new favorite summer dish… and if you’re a lover of refreshing, amazing seasonal produce, I get the feeling it’s going to be yours too. Inspired by a dish served at one of my most beloved neighborhood Mexican joints, this avocado carpaccio, in its essence, is really just a […]

Are You a Cryer?

I’m Chanel, and I’m a crybaby. I know what you’re thinking — I haven’t heard that word used since elementary school — but there’s no other way to describe it. I’m moved to tears over the news, movies, songs, commercials, on my yoga mat, at graduations, weddings, births, deaths, you name it… I’m the girl sniffling obnoxiously in your ear […]

A Small-Space Entryway Makeover

I live in a loft, meaning that my apartment consists of — count ’em — one room total. The kitchen transitions into the dining area, which turns into the living area, which then becomes the bedroom… and while I absolutely love the wide openness of it all,  living without established hallways, doorways and foyers has been quite […]
