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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

We hosted a tropical tiki boat party […]

When South Congress Hotel opened its doors in Austin last year, we became instant regulars: at its fantastic restaurants, gorgeous lobby bar, adjoining boutiques, and we even threw our mega #GetHealthyGetTogether there in May. When it came time to gather friends for our latest dinner party, we took our inspiration from the enviable indoor plants that give South Congress […]

Have y’all noticed that all things pickled, fermented, and probiotic are having a major moment lately? And for good reason: there’s no better way to feed your gut all the good bacteria that keeps it healthy than to consume these types of enzyme-rich foods on a daily basis. A couple weeks ago, a few of my besties […]
