A Colorful Summer Seafood Boil
It’s finally starting to feel like summer in Austin, which means lots of outdoor parties with light and fresh food on the menu. I love setting big platters on the table and serving guests family-style, and nothing says “help yourself” like a backyard seafood boil. I’m a sucker for themed parties and when I couldn’t find the […]
Summer Backyard Movie Night
I went to an all girls camp in the Texas hill country, and some the best memories of my summers there were the nights designated for outdoor movies. We’d hold a vote the week before, and everyone could write in whatever movie they wanted. (At the risk of dating myself, I’ll say that Newsies, Pretty […]
Dinner in the South of France
Around this time two years ago, Adam and I took a trip to the South of France to celebrate my 30th birthday and our 5th wedding anniversary, two milestones that fell within the same week of each other. It was definitely one of those bucket list trips — we fell in love with the beaches, the effortlessly […]
Inside Our First Ever Get Healthy Get Together
I’m still on cloud nine after last Sunday’s first-ever #GetHealthyGetTogether that our team hosted here in Austin at the beautiful South Congress Hotel. Earlier this year, we announced a renewed commitment to creating content that inspires healthy lifestyles, and that inspired a desire to do something IRL with you guys. As much as we love our […]

A Marie Antoinette Bridal Shower
Four months into my engagement, and I’ve learned that planning a wedding is a full time job. Lesson #1: If any event — like an engagement party, a bridal shower, a bachelorette party — can be passed off to friends or family, you’d be wise to give them complete autonomy over planning. I was originally reluctant to […]
Seek the Surf
When I was seventeen, I headed west with my parents to tour California schools. The UCLA and Pepperdine campuses were beautiful, but the biggest takeaway of the trip was catching my first wave on a longboard in Malibu. I ended up writing an admissions essay about the experience and submitting it (ironically) to the land-locked […]
A Springtime Aperitivo Party with Franciacorta
The art of the aperitivo. I first discovered it on my honeymoon in Capri a few years ago, when Adam and I would start each evening with a glass of wine on the scene-y terrace of our hotel to people watch and relax. We soon learned that the Italians take this ritual very seriously: not only does […]
A Laid Back Mother’s Day Picnic
I can’t help but feel the pressure when it comes to Mother’s Day. I find myself trying to plan the ideal day for Mom, and hoping to perfect every last detail — the food has to be good, the gifts just right, and the heartfelt message in the greeting card? If that doesn’t draw a tear or two, I’ve failed […]
The Freshest Spring Lip Shades
I don’t want to start any fights here, but in my opinion the much-beloved fall season has nothing on spring. Those first few soft breezes on your skin, the dappled light flowing through the fresh blooms on the trees, the scent of aforementioned blooms in the air—it’s simply magic. (Plus, it means that summer AND […]

How to Throw a Bon Voyage Party
We’ve had some incredible interns pass through the doors of team Camille Styles through the years, and saying goodbye at the end of their school year is always bittersweet. Although we’re sad to see them go, it’s exciting to think about the bright future that lies ahead of these talented ladies. In that spirit, we threw […]
Cinco de Mayo Taquitos y Margaritas
Here in Austin, we know how to throw one heck of a Cinco de Mayo party. I mean, the margarita is practically our official drink, and tacos might as well be our city mascot, so we get in some good practice on the other 364 days of the year. I always embrace the challenge of […]
A Spicy Cinco de Mayo Potluck with Cholula
Y’all are going to get a major dose of Cinco de Mayo inspiration from us this week, and it kicks off today with this colorful fiesta potluck that I hosted for a few friends last week. The vibrant tabletop and festive vibe were inspired by the array of Cholula bottles on the table — we incorporated my favorite hot sauce […]
Host a Grown-Up Slumber Party
Our team recently spent an entire afternoon in the office reminiscing over the fun of childhood sleepovers — the brat pack movies, the pizza, the epic games of truth or dare. So when our friends at Botanics invited us to throw a grown-up slumber party with their gorgeous plant-based skincare, it was an obvious yes. We couldn’t […]
Springtime in New Orleans
I’ve just returned from an indulgent weekend in New Orleans (is there any other kind?), and I can’t think of a better place to have fallen off the wagon with the #CamilleStylesCleanse. (Hey, I almost made it seven days.) But if you’ve ever been to the big easy then you already know — this is […]
A Bohemian Earth Day Picnic
I heard a staggering report on the news this morning: Did you know that in the next century, it’s now estimated that our sea levels could rise 6 ft? That might not sound like much, but it’s double the amount that scientists had previously predicted, meaning our generation and our children’s generation could be more directly affected […]
