Be My Guest

As we head into the first weekend of Austin City Limits Music Festival, I am preparing for house guests. And there is truly nothing like a house guest to light a fire under your unfinished design projects! It is so useful to have a deadline to finally hang those curtains, frame that print, or even replace the lightbulb in […]

How to Take Amazing Vacation Photos

EDITOR’S NOTE: Team Camille Styles could easily be the founders of photographer Wynn Myers’ Fan Club. Her ethereal, colorful approach to photography always leaves us charmed and inspired. We all love seeing Wynn’s view of the world through her lens and getting to collaborate with her is an even bigger treat. After seeing her jaw dropping […]

How to Live Minimally

I am an accidental minimalist, mostly the result of making three cross-country moves in fewer than five years. As a result, I’ve learned to pack lightly, purchasing and keeping things that will be worth the schlep. But the more I’ve pared down, the more I’ve realized how owning less creates a lot of clarity. It […]

A Special Pre-Order Gift!

Before I wrote my first book, I didn’t really get why you’d want to pre-order a book before its release date. But as it turns out, pre-orders are a big deal and are one of the most powerful ways you can contribute to the success of an author whose work you love! A strong pre-order number encourages bookstores to carry the […]

Weekend Notes

Hope everyone’s having a lovely weekend so far! Highlights of mine include: farmers market shop, breakfast banh mi at Elizabeth Street, long walk around ladybird lake, getting a massage from my amazing cousin who recently launched her biz (best thing that’s ever happened to me), grilling homemade pizzas, and finishing this completely addictive book. And the […]

Feelin’ Like a Getaway

It’s true: even though summer is barely over, I’m already craving a little vacay. I know, I know, fall is supposed to be the time of year when we buckle down and refocus on work and projects that may have been neglected during the summer, but I’ve found that the busier life gets, the more […]

Weekend Notes

This weekend is for pulling on cozy socks, curling up with a good book, making big bowls of pasta, and pretending like it’s colder outside than it really is. After spending all of last weekend completely glued to my computer screen as we geared up for our new site launch, I’m determined to let emails wait […]

Olive & June Nail Salon

I couldn’t believe it when I first saw it, but this sublime sitting area is not the living room of a stylist or a blogger. In a first for this series, today we are talking about bringing home the look of — get this — a nail salon. The phrase nail salon typically conjures up a […]

On My Nightstand

I might say this with the arrival of every new season, but seems to me that there’s no better time to stash a crop of new books on your nightstand than the cozy nights of early fall. Although the temp here in Austin is still hitting 90 degrees on some days, the tiniest hint at […]

Jennifer Rose Smith’s Loft Apartment

Whether it’s an inborn trait or something that’s carefully honed over time, there’s no denying that some people simply possess really good taste. Our art director, Jennifer Rose Smith, is one of them (lucky us!), and she has that rare knack of making everything she touches appear hip, thoughtful, and never overdone. In other words, just […]

Hong Kong

To say that Deana Saukam and Paul Qui are well-traveled and well-fed would be an understatement. In just the time we’ve been corresponding about this specific story, the couple has been to Hong Kong, Seattle, Vancouver, Alaska, Copenhagen, New York and Portland, and since the duo owns and operates some of Austin’s most renowned restaurants […]

We Got a Major Makeover!

Yes, we are looking a little different today, and I couldn’t be happier to unveil the all-new site design that we’ve been toiling over for the last several months. Especially in this constantly changing space, I believe that it’s crucial to stay fluid, stay flexible, and keep evolving with technological advances, and my goal with this relaunch […]
