Weekend Notes
Happy weekend, friends! Thought I’d kick it off with a few of my favorite snaps from last weekend’s whirlwind trip to Miami for South Beach Wine & Food Festival (and don’t miss my favorite links at the bottom of the post!) Phoebe’s first trip to the beach made for some unforgettable moments. Seeing her playing […]
On My Nightstand
We got back from Miami last night, and while traveling is usually the time when I make loads of progress in the books I have going, let’s just say that when you have an 18-month-old in tow, things are a little different. “Downtime” typically doesn’t even make an appearance! Towards the last half of our […]
Monochromatic Monday :: London Blues
The thought entered my mind a few weeks ago and I can’t get it out: I want to paint my bedroom blue. Really, really dark blue. “You know, like a sort of England-in-the-sixties, rock-and-roll-hotel sort of blue,” I told a friend. “That could be… cool,” she said cautiously, then added, “you know dark colors make […]
Weekend Notes
Bienvenido a Miami! Er, greetings from Miami, that is! I’m here soaking up the sunshine, eating (and drinking) way too many delicious things and trying to keep myself from blowing my budget at the Webster while at the South Beach Wine & Food festival this weekend. Phoebe came along for the ride too, partly because […]
Real Weddings on Loverly
I got married almost 10 years ago, and there have been many times over the years when I wished I could give a friend who wasn’t there a visual to better describe what is was like, or if I could have a few quiet moments to relive the day without finding and bringing out my […]
Love + Work :: Miller and Jana Mobley
At just age 27, Miller Mobley has risen to the top of the ultra competitive photography industry to become one of the most sought after shooters in the business, traveling the world shooting A-list celebrities on assignment for the likes of TIME, Entertainment Weekly and the Hollywood Reporter, to name a few. He’s done it […]
Monochromatic Monday :: Bittersweet Grapefruit
Nature gives us a bounty of citrus fruits at this time of year for a reason: there’s nothing more invigorating to winter palates than biting into a Clementine slice or squeezing a bright burst of lemon juice over grilled fish or meat. Lately, I’ve felt particularly energized by the sweet-tart hit of grapefruit as an […]
Weekend Notes
We headed to East Texas yesterday for my grandmother’s memorial service, and I’ve been spending time reading through her letters to me through the years — in the spirit of Valentine’s, they’re some of the best “love notes” I’ve ever received. Nana had this way of making you feel like the most brilliant, witty, […]
10 Best Love Stories
In case you haven’t noticed, Valentine’s Day is considered a Major Holiday in this office. Is it redundant to say that, well, we love love? This February 14th we’ve gathered our favorite love stories—real, fictional and embellished—to share with you. These are the stories that inspire us and make us believe in crazy, awesome, powerful […]
Puppy Love
Over a recent lunch at the Josephine House, my dear friend Jackie Rangel, the content manager for C3 Presents’ multiple festival brands, was lamenting the fact she never got around to sending a glammed up New Years card featuring festive Polaroid photos of she and her beloved dog Franklin together. As she described the concept, I knew […]
Little Things :: Kiddos, You’ve Got Mail!
I’ve been dying to share the simplest idea I had for those of you who may be a little like me. I am not a baby book maker. In fact, I purchased and started one for Porter (filled out one page) but never even purchased one for Mary Mae (and she’s almost three). All in all, I […]
DIY :: Woody Valentines
Valentine’s Day wouldn’t be complete without printed, cut, folded and glued paper Valentines passed out to friends and family (like the lovely floral printables Jenn created this year), but I’m always intrigued by V-Day crafts that are made with less predictable materials. This DIY was inspired by… well, a tree branch. And while it boasts […]
Monochromatic Monday :: From Paris, With Love
Can you think of anything more romantic than spending February 14th in Paris? As a city that oozes amour 365 days a year, just being in the City of Light on Valentine’s Day has got to be pure magic. Admittedly, I don’t have much planned for this coming Friday, but I figured I’d sneak some Parisian […]
Weekend Notes
I’m spending this Saturday at one of the best gigs ever as one of this year’s judges of Citywide 86’d, a heated cooking competition between Austin’s best restaurants. I’m so excited to taste exciting new flavor creations from some of the city’s most talented culinary pros. After channeling my inner Padma, I’ll head over to […]
