Weekend Notes

Happy weekend, y’all! It’s been sunny and gorgeous here in Austin, and we spent yesterday soaking it up on the golf course at PGA’s WGC-Dell Match Play Championship. It was my first golf tournament ever and we had a total blast — I posted all about the day on my Insta stories, and am now totally wanting to […]

How to Find Your Niche and Get Paid For It

Not sure when exactly it happened, but recently, I’ve been referred to as an OG blogger. It’s true that when I started the site almost 8 years ago, lifestyle blogging still felt a bit like the wild west; we were experimenting and trying out new ways of creating content just because it made us happy — I had no idea […]

Weekend Notes

Morning, friends! It’s been a couple weeks since our last edition of Weekend Notes — if you’ve been following on Insta, you’ve seen that things have been a little SXSW crazy around here and it’s been a constant juggle of work and kids and festival. Yesterday was the grand finale, and we soaked up the sunshine, […]

If You’re Thinking About Trying Whole30, Read This First

image from cali vintage When my sister asked if I wanted to do Whole30 with her this past August, my knee-jerk reaction was “No way, not another diet!” While I’m still figuring out what works best for me nutritionally — it changes daily based on what my body needs — I am 100% confident that […]

The Poet and the Rebel

Hairstylist Diamond Mueller and musician Jonathan Terrell have the kind of dynamic that hit country songs are made of. He’s the free-wheeling wildcard to her cool, no-nonsense personality. “She’s friggin’ tough,” says Jonathan of his wife, who he began dating almost a decade ago. He adores her strength and stunning looks, and she loves his talent, ambition and […]

10 Ways to Make Essential Oils Part of Your Daily Routine

Editor’s note: A couple years ago, Adina Grigore shared with us these 6 Recipes for Beautiful Skin from her first book, and to this date, it remains one of my favorite beauty stories of all time. The simple ingredient combinations and vibrant photos instantly made me want to call up my best girlfriends for an impromptu slumber party and […]

My March 2017 List

I sleep so much better when I get some reading time in beforehand! This month’s roundup includes my new go-to weeknight cookbook, […]

Weekend Notes

Happy weekend, y’all! Hope it’s been a good one so far. I’ve been reading this book that a friend gave me, called Present Over Perfect: Leaving Behind Frantic for a Simpler, More Soulful Way of Living. I knew before I even opened it that it was exactly what my life is needing right now. Like so […]

Weekend Notes

Morning, friends! This weekend has so far been my absolute favorite kind: tons of sunshine, brunch with my sister, reading new books, making dinner on the grill, and yes — we actually spent a few hours in the pool yesterday (in February!) Crazy, I know. Work has felt incredibly busy lately between a really full shooting […]

Is Your Crew Setting You Up For Success?

image: lack of color On my very first day as an intern with E! Entertainment, my boss gave me a valuable piece of advice that I’ll never forget. He said, “Work hard, but never underestimate the power of a good mentor.” Eleven years later, this still holds true. I’m not sure if it’s a by-product […]

Carmen & Paddington

I’ll admit that when Carmen and Paddington first came onto the Camille Styles team, both Coco and I felt threatened. A crafty girl with a ridiculously cute dog?! That’s totally our schtick! Nevertheless, we pushed our egos aside and decided to make room in our hearts for the adorable duo, and I speak for the whole team […]

I’ve noticed that especially when I’ve had a fun and carefree weekend, the transition back into the structure of the work week can be a tough pill to swallow. In an effort to take back my Sunday […]

Weekend Notes

Good morning, friends! What are y’all up to this weekend? I got home from LA on Thursday night, so it’s been *heaven* to mostly stay home, hang with the fam, and soak up this unseasonably sunny weather we’re experiencing in Austin. So far, the weekend has consisted of a date night with some great friends, […]

Can You Change Your Mood Set Point?

One of the sneakiest things about bad moods is that we often don’t recognize when we’re in one. Instead, we start drawing dangerous conclusions: I’m just unlucky. Things are never going to work out for me. Everything’s wrong. These dark thoughts are powerful, and can have real consequences in our lives. If you find yourself […]

6 Ways to Be More Persuasive

A few weeks ago, Kelly brought up the importance of asking for what you want. While she totally inspired us to step up and speak our minds, she also got us wondering: Are there any tricks to effectively winning over your audience to ensure that in addition to asking for what you want, you actually get it? I […]

Weekend Notes

photo from local milk By the time you read this, I’ll be capping off a long weekend in NOLA celebrating a dear friend’s birthday with beignets, jazz, and sazeracs. I haven’t been to the Big Easy since I was a kid, so I’m really looking forward to a couple days of poking around the neighborhoods and […]

The Model and The Muse

Taylor Jarrett and Dagny Piasecki are an “it” couple in the truest sense of the phrase. You seldom hear one name without the other attached, and in Austin you hear their names EVERYWHERE. They’re the best dressed couple at the party, the adorable pair on the cover of Texas Monthly, the young artistic entrepreneurs who also happen […]
