A Day at the Splash Pad with Joules

I don’t know about your hometowns, but when the Splash Pads opened in Austin on May 17, it seemed that everyone in the city was there to ring in the occasion. It’s one of the most popular ways parents find free fun and an escape from the heat during the hottest months of the year. […]

Weekend Notes

We missed our fearless leader this week while she has been away on her big 30th birthday/5 year wedding anniversary trip to St. Tropez  (check out Camille’s dreamy Instagram photos of the trip so far) and can’t wait for her return this week — in the mean time, I wanted to chime in and share […]

Father’s Day Gift Guide

I am always a sucker for anything old-school prep, so it was vintage love at first sight when I laid eyes on a Criquet Shirt a few years ago. They are super soft, available in an array of fun colors and remind me of a cool version of the golf shirts my dad rocked on […]

How We Organize Our Workspace

It was so fun getting to share our new studio space that we posted a couple weeks ago, and a lot of you expressed interest in seeing more details and hearing about how we keep things looking so clean and organized. I’ll admit that it’s a constant challenge — some days we might get huge […]

Weekend Notes

It’s been a really lovely weekend around here so far… one final birthday blowout with my nearest and dearest, reading magazines by the pool with these smoothies in hand, and tonight, staying in and making dinner and watching movies. And of course, dreaming and making final plans for our trip to St. Tropez next week! […]

10 Things I Want to Do in My Thirties

I’m turning 30 today!! And I’m pretty darn excited about it. While it’s a bit surreal to think that my twenties have come and gone, it’s exhilarating to think that I’m standing on the brink of this new chapter full of adventures, new friendships, and life lessons (learned from plenty of mistakes, no doubt!). Not that […]

Weekend Notes

Cheers to a long weekend (and the unofficial kickoff to summer!) I’m happy to say that I have almost zero plans for the next three days, which thankfully leaves plenty of time for spontaneous outings, long brunches and impromptu barbecues with friends. Or even just the luxury of cracking open this book (I’ve wanted to read […]

Besties :: Nikki and Virginia

When we discovered fashion blogger Nikki Chanel via Instagram, we couldn’t help but pour over the images of her fabulous outfits and incredibly well-dressed friends — and when we learned that her very best friend is none other than the oh-so-chic champion of social advocacy in Austin, Virginia Cumberbatch… well, we pretty much had to […]

The Gift of Gratitude

“Wear gratitude like a cloak and it will feed every corner of your life” – Rumi Last year, I stumbled upon a TED talk given by Brother David Steindl-Rast in which he suggests that happiness is born from gratitude. In this same vein, research is beginning to show that if we cultivate and practice gratitude, […]

Camille’s Collection on Joss & Main!

Joss & Main’s daily and finely curated sales are a can’t miss in our team’s inboxes, so we were thrilled when Camille was asked to put together her very own Curator’s Collection Sale. Inspired by her home that she describes as “simple and understated with a bohemian touch,” Camille selected items that could help bring […]

Love + Work :: Trey Hardee and Chelsea Johnson

The life of a professional athlete isn’t an easy one. Decathlete (and London 2012 Olympic silver medalist) Trey Hardee spends between 25 and 40 hours a week training in one of the 10 intense track and field events that make up the competition to be the “World’s Greatest Athlete.” And, Trey says he couldn’t do […]

Monochromatic Monday :: Citrus & Sorbet

It started with those popsicles… I spotted them and suddenly I could taste summer. There’s just something about those hot colors that just screams fun-in-the-sun, and the weather in Austin is calling for just that. With temps in the 70’s & 80’s, clear skies and cool breezes, we’ve had the most gorgeous few days, and popsicles, sorbet […]
