The Bachelor Contestants Group Costume
Can we all just admit that we secretly watch “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” in the comfort of our own homes? From traveling across the world for exotic dates to intense cat fight drama, the producers really know how to keep us interested. This Halloween, we were inspired by America’s guiltiest pleasure and created an easy DIY […]
Whispering Angel Costume
We already had six other fun group costume concepts going when this goofy idea struck us over (what else?) a bottle of rosé. When we look back on 2016, we’ll undoubtedly remember the pink wine craze and the beloved cheapie bottle that appeared on every wine list across the country. This group costume idea is great for two […]
Pink Ladies Costume
Some movies are so well done that right after watching them, you’re instantly convinced you were born in the wrong era. That was Grease for ten-year-old me. Night after night, I’d watch the movie in total awe of the poodle skirts, soda fountains and drive-in movie theatres where they all hung out. Back then, the […]
DIY Synchronized Swimmers Group Costume
Along with the conclusion of the Summer olympics also came the withdrawals associated with having to wait another four years until cheering on our favorite athletes again. One of our favorite summer sports to watch this year was synchronized swimming. A sport which in the past several years has transformed from relaxed routines to a rather intense form of underwater […]
Entertaining With Joey Wolffer
I can’t think of a more fitting subject to cap-off a sunshine and rosé-filled summer than the queen of pink wine herself, Joey Wolffer, who co-owns her family’s namesake vineyard and has helped turn it into the liquid accessory of the summer. Speaking of accessories, Joey also runs The Styleliner, a mobile fashion truck that features independent […]
It’s Fall, Y’all!
With temperatures still in the 90s here in Austin, it’s hard to believe that it’s officially fall. But here in the office we’ve been itching for the seasons to change for a couple weeks now. We’re swapping our green juices for vanilla fig smoothies, and taking notes on how to dress for fall while we wait for the […]
How to Host a Dinner Party like a French Girl
It’s no wonder that my very favorite Entertaining With story we’ve ever ran was the one with Justine Gilcrease — after all, she’s French. When it comes to entertaining, Parisians have cultivated a level of cool that’s seriously taken generations to achieve. They don’t shy away from luxury or elegance, but it’s all delivered in a […]
15 Best Fall Boots for Every Budget
There’s definitely something in the autumn air that begs for a new pair of boots, but now that I’ve decided to pull the trigger and do some shopping this weekend, I realize I’m faced with a host of options in style, heel height, color, and more. If you’re as indecisive as I am, there’s a good chance you’ve found […]
This San Diego Blogger Does Backyard Entertaining Right
We’ve had a serious girl crush on Sarah Yates Mora ever since she was the editor of our “super foodie” column long ago. The girl has major style — she can somehow make anything (like, even vacuuming the house while pregnant) look incredibly chic and stylish. So obviously we were over the moon when she […]
Meet Me in Paris
In case you’re not up to speed, our executive producer Chanel is tying the knot with her longtime beau Eric in just two short weeks. Oh, and did I mention? We’re all going to France for the wedding. (!!!) Obviously, we’re giddy with anticipation right now in the office — flights purchased, outfits planned, and we […]
21 Items I Want to Add to my Wardrobe This Fall
In the spirit of transparency, I have selfish reasons for writing this post. Every year, I intend to put a little more planning into fall shopping. My imaginary plan: I build a streamlined wardrobe that’s made up of entire looks that go together, and each season I strategically add a chic mix of investment pieces and lower-priced items. What really happens: Since […]
Fall Quesadillas with Apple, Radicchio & Pomegranate
It always happens around September 1st, just like clockwork: I’m relishing the warm weather and wishing that summer would never end, when BAM! I feel a cool breeze and leaf through the September issues of all my mags, and suddenly I’m as obsessed with fall as this guy. Without a doubt, my favorite thing about this […]
Organic Romance
It feels like every couple days I’m asked what my “wedding colors” are, and each time, I offer the same underwhelming answer: “I… don’t really have any?” Sure, there’ll be plenty of white and ivory, and lots of greens too, plus some blush, some blues, and oh yeah, there’s that one lilac element too… Since our wedding design doesn’t […]
How to Throw a Cocktail Party in an Hour
Confession: I’m really happy that we live in an age when we can get almost everything delivered at the tap of a smart phone button. As much as I actually enjoy grocery shopping (really I do), my current schedule makes leisurely trips to the market a thing of the past, and the ability to have my […]
