photographed by kristen kilpatrick In case you missed it, we made some relaxing herbal facial steams and smudge sticks to celebrate the people in our lives with this springtime DIY. These facial steams are my personal favorite because they take over the room with an subtle aroma that just makes you swoon, open up your pores, relieve […]
photo via vogue Ah, Mom. For many of us, she’s the person we turn to in times of happiness, turmoil, trouble and success. Our biggest fan! Yet as much as we love her, putting that appreciation into a gift poses one of the biggest shopping challenges of the year. While we wish we could give her […]
photos by kristen kilpatrick So far, my thirties have been all about discovering balance, trying new things, and finding deeper levels of inner confidence — in other words, the best decade of my life so far. That said, my birthday next month marks the move from “early” to “mid,” and it’s officially not too early to […]
With the temperatures warming up here in NYC (finally!), I’m stashing all of my dark lip shades and searching those elusive your-lips-but-better shades that brighten my face without looking overly bright or heavy. Thankfully, the market has been delivering with some truly beautiful natural shades for all skin tones this year. Whether you prefer matte […]
The fashion industry loves the occasional fling with cowboy boots. It seems like every 6 or 7 years, there they are again. But here in Texas, boots are a lifelong love affair. We have junker pairs from thrift shops, high fashion versions from Neimans, and (for the serious collectors) custom creations from legendary bookmakers like […]
Collar? Optional. Sleeves? Take ’em or leave ’em. Buttons, however, are mandatory, and add to the laid back, easy appeal of this summer staple. Throw one over a suit for an impromptu splash, or pair with chunky heels for a dinner date. The beauty is that there’s no wrong time or place for a shirt […]
photos by kristen kilpatrick It’s no secret that Austin is flush with amazing restaurants, but when it comes to choosing a spot for a truly special night out, there are a few that I return to time and again. Lenoir, with its imaginative prix fixe menu and jaw-dropping vintage chic interiors, is tip top on […]
images by Kristen Kilpatrick Now that the weather’s getting warmer, there’s no way I’d rather spend a sunny Sunday afternoon that shopping for plants to add to my growing collection (pun intended.) While Adam’s the master of our backyard landscaping, I’ve started quite the indoor garden of my own made up almost entirely of succulents […]
We’re constantly talking about skincare in the office, and it’s truly amazing how different our individual routines and concerns are. That said, we’re all looking for products that make our skin feel healthy, bright, and youthful. And if those products happen to be at an affordable price point, we’re twice as excited. That’s why we […]
Swimsuit season brings a mild level of fear to almost everyone, but it can feel especially harsh if you suffer from spider veins. Like a lot of common skin conditions, spider veins are more embarrassing than they are dangerous or unhealthy. That said, it’s important to consult with an experienced physician before treating your legs. Camille’s […]
The Sunday Scaries. Hangxiety. No matter what you call it, we’ve all been there. Your head is throbbing, you can’t even figure out how to navigate your Favor app (which is further complicated by the fact your eyes are welling up with tears from that stupid Hallmark movie on tv.) All this begs the question: […]
featured photo via urban outfitters It seems like nowadays (on Instagram, at least) all of the girls are gaga for fall. They’re all longing for sweater weather and hot coffees and “coziness.” Not me, friend. Because you know what comes after fall? That long, interminable season known as winter. Fall is just the precursor to […]
images by kristen kilpatrick I’m always happy when I have an excuse to cross over to the east side of Austin which just keeps getting better…. and the list of restaurants I want to go to keeps getting longer. Hillside Farmacy is a longtime fave because of the ultra charming décor, but also because this […]
Are we all in agreement that spring shopping is the most fun? Granted, the thought of showing any amount of my pale, wintry skin right now sends shivers down my spine, but after a good mani/pedi and some serious exfoliation, I think I can get there. First up on my shopping list? Something feminine and […]
