ed. note: Since our entire team has fallen in love with the decadent, beautiful, and perfectly-named blog Butterlust, we invited its creator, Katie, to pop by the site once a month in an all new series called “The Sweeter Side.” She’ll be sharing at-home recipes for ending the meal (or starting the day) on a sweet note, […]
For Ashley of Gather and Feast, the people surrounding the dining table are just as important as the fresh produce and foliage adorning it. It’s hard to believe that she only recently started sharing her love for “beautiful, yet low fuss” gatherings, and in the six months since she started her blog, she’s also launched a free recipe […]
With Valentine’s Day just a few weeks away, sweet treats, decadent chocolates, and dangerous indulgences are on our minds. And when tasked with whipping up a delicious and devilish Valentine’s treat, we knew that Libbie Summers — hostess with the mostess and author of Sweet and Viscous: Baking with Attitude — was the woman for the job.

Have you ever owned an item of clothing that is so cozy, you want to curl up in it on the couch at home… but that’s also so chic that it garners compliments wherever you take it? This waffle cashmere turtleneck from Hatch is that staple piece in my closet — I’ve worn it constantly (including […]
When it comes to working out, I’m a big believer in consistency: I feel so much better when I get moving and do something active every single day, even if it’s small like taking a brisk walk around the neighborhood or running around the yard with Phoebe. Working these simple forms of exercise into normal life […]
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, dyed-in-the-wool is an adjective meaning “having opinions that are very strong and do not change.” While I wouldn’t say I’m dyed-in-the-wool when it comes to politics, I’ve certainly got some strong notions when it comes to aesthetics. Ideas like: wood is better than plastic. Cream looks more expensive than white. […]
*photos by Jessica Pages Sometimes it’s sooo hard to get motivated to put on a cute outfit when it’s freezing outside, but don’t you end up feeling so much better when you take the time to don a thoughtful layered look (rather than piling on some bulky pieces that may provide warmth, but don’t score very many […]

Is gratitude something that we feel, or is it something that we do? I think it’s both – although we usually think of it as a natural response to good things happening, we can also make a choice to feel it throughout the day, every day. And the thing that I’ve been noticing in my own life is […]
We love featuring the creative folks who work to cultivate beauty in the everyday experience, and the girl behind Trouvé magazine is certainly one of them. Amanda Marko, designer and publisher of Trouvé, created this bi-annual magazine to “celebrate the creative lifestyle and those who live it.” Amanda does everything herself, from production and design to packaging and shipping, […]
