I’m just going to say it: this year’s House Party In The Hills blew past years’ out of the water. This was our third annual bash during SXSW, and thanks to perfect weather, our amazing partners at Who What Wear and Madewell, and a hard-to-beat guest list, it was one for the books. With a team full of Francophiles, this year’s party inspiration came from the streets of Paris, where wine flows freely, women dress effortlessly, and the cuisine just can’t be beat. From the menu, to the flowers, to the music, it all came together to transport us to a table at our favorite Parisian bistro, overlooking a bustling Boulevard Saint-Martin. Keep scrolling for some of our favorite details captured by Hannah Haston, and below, be sure to check out the amazing partners who made this year’s soirée possible.

On Camille’s terrace, our main lounge area invited guests to kick back and relax with the beautiful Austin hills as a backdrop.
We sourced the most beautiful roses from 1-800-Flowers, and our favorite Austin floral designer, Margot Blair, arranged them stunningly in stone footed urns. Have you ever seen anything more gorgeous?
The Camille Styles team posing for a quick group pic before the festivities began. Our neon sign made for an irresistible photo opp.
Our Madewell Lounge was an absolute hit! Each guest got to choose one amazing leather accessory from Madewell, and then have it monogrammed on the spot for the world’s best party favor.
These stylish Madewell gals were making monogram dreams come true.
Deciding on a wallet, pouch or card case was near impossible! What would you choose?
In Camille’s living room, another jaw-dropping arrangement by Margot Blair.

Who can resist freshly caught oysters with all the fix-ins?!
Beats by New York’s Miss Behavior kept the party going into the wee hours… and her classically Parisian getup was an added bonus!
No visit to Paris is complete without a stroll along the Seine. We brought those artsy vibes to our house party with artist Roger Paul Mason.

There was lots of handbag envy…
… and baby envy.
