A Single Gal's Valentine's Day | Nicole Mlakar for Camille Styles

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 […]

Transformed :: Designing Camille’s Office

Happy Thursday! The first week of February has been quite a whirlwind. The construction on the new Camille Styles office is wrapping up, move in has begun, and I can’t wait for the full reveal. Until then, I thought I’d share the design process behind Camille’s personal office space. Camille’s design aesthetic is elegantly simple. […]

Our New Studio :: Shopping for Rugs

Moving day has finally arrived for our team! We’ll be busy unpacking and settling into our new studio space, and one of the things I’m most excited about is unrolling the rugs that we ordered from Lulu & Georgia. Since the space has clean white walls and classic wood floors, I knew that the floor […]

10 Best Valentine’s Day Gifts for Guys

Picking out the perfect gift for the favorite fella in your life can be a daunting task—it has to be unexpected, and I don’t know about you, but when it comes to buying for my hubby, there always has to be a practical factor too. We scoured our favorite shops to assemble a lineup of […]

Monochromatic Monday :: Sheer Elegance

There’s just something about sheer, featherweight textiles that illustrates elegance in the most simple way. And with spring right around the corner, these sweet fabrics and frocks are certainly top of mind (along with the vision of gentle beams of sunlight making their way through sheer draperies…) Picture that special set of lace-y lingerie or […]

10 Best DIY Valentines

Valentine’s Day never fails to make me think of my Uncle Tommy. As an always smiling fourth grader, he marched in to his classroom on February 14 and boldly handed my now Aunt Rose his entire box of cards…the ones that were meant for the whole class. Theirs is a story with a sweet beginning and […]

Meet our new Editor-In-Chief!

David Ogilvy, “The Father of Advertising,” once said: Hire people who are better than you are… Look for people who will aim for the remarkable, who will not settle for the routine. As we’ve grown over the last year, I’m learning more and more how crucial that is  — and how important it is to surround ourselves […]
