Monochromatic Monday :: Coast to Coast

It’s that time of year again…when temperatures start to climb just enough to spur dreams of summer sunshine, and a little sand in between your toes while cradling a piña colada (or two). So, as I ditch my winter coats and recover my favorite pair of flip-flops from the (very) bottom of my closet, I can’t […]

Weekend Notes

Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend so far! I made a quick trip to Birmingham last week to visit the Southern Living, Coastal Living and Cooking Light magazine HQ, which was a completely amazing experience thanks to the many lovely and welcoming staffers I met there who epitomized southern hospitality to the fullest extent. Got home […]

Transformed :: Concrete + Copper Plant Stand

Happy Thursday! Claire here with the perfect summer kick-off DIY. I don’t know about you all, but I am a plant lover. I have them scattered on my porch, decorating my shelves and still can’t help but keep buying more! What is better than displaying them on a plant stand you made yourself? Better yet, […]

Monochromatic Monday :: Hit Snooze

Good morning, fellow sleepyheads! It’s Monday again, and I’m coming off the best kind of weekend: beautiful weather and nothing on the calendar. My Saturday didn’t really start until noon, after my boyfriend and I indulged in not one but two entire episodes of Saved By the Bell on Netflix. We marveled at how we […]

Weekend Notes

Happy Saturday, lovelies! Are you getting hints of spring where you are? I’ve been soaking up the sunshine here in Austin all day — after a big trip to the plant nursery this morning, we spent a couple hours repotting our indoor succulents and filling some big outside pots with basil, mint and kale. It’s […]

10 Best New Bands of 2014

Between tabletops and decor, it might surprise you that music is actually one of the most talked about subjects in this office. Whatever project we’re working on, our Sonos speaker is constantly jamming our favorite Pandora and Spotify channels. This has lead to discussions — some might even say arguments — about everything from André […]

DIY :: Embroidered Felt Easter Eggs

Easter egg crafts hold a special place in my heart, right up there with Valentine’s Day card making. They’re low-pressure, great for kids, and best of all, they just scream spring! I’ve always loved the rustic and homemade look of felt balls, so for this project we used wool roving to make egg-shaped delights rather than the […]

Behind the Smile :: With ELLE & Crest!

I had such a blast being part of this collaboration with ELLE and Crest, and I couldn’t be more excited for the feature to finally hit newsstands in the April issue! I spent the most fun day last fall hanging out at the Joule with the ELLE team, getting my photo snapped by The Coveteur (pinch me!) and spilling all my favorite beauty secrets. In addition to […]

Monochromatic Monday :: Welcoming Wildflowers

This past weekend, I headed 3 hours north of Austin to spend a relaxing weekend at my friend’s gorgeous ranch. Since we officially welcomed spring last week, it should have been no surprise that the drive was speckled with patches of wildflowers… but for some reason, that first sighting of bluebonnets and cardinals had me […]

How to Take a Staycation

At the Camille Styles headquarters, the month of March has been devoted to all things Hometown Love. We have celebrated our hometown of Austin, Texas and made stops in Marfa and Portland along the way. Sometimes life gets so hectic that even the time and planning it takes to go on a vacation feels overwhelming. […]

Weekend Notes & thoughts on pampering yourself

Good morning, lovelies! It’s been a bit of a hectic week and I’d been feeling a little harried (you know those times when, every time you have a spare moment, you find yourself obsessively going over your various to-do lists? That was me last week.) So I finally took some time yesterday afternoon to treat […]

10 Best City Bikes

My favorite thing about the new office? Finally being able to ditch my car for a set of two wheels! While I still own a primary vehicle, most days you’ll spot me cruising my Mixte 3 to work and back. With downtown areas being revitalized in cities across the nation and populations moving inwards, there’s […]

Love + Work :: Cobra Rock Boot Company

A cowboy and a Canadian fall in love after meeting at a concert on a courthouse lawn in West Texas. Logan remembers the day — “I was spending the summer in Lubbock. I said hi to him, and he was so friendly when he responded that we got to talking and I remember thinking, ‘Wow, […]
