McKel Hill of Nutrition Stripped
When we announced our wellness-focused blog makeover last year, we knew it would bring with it all sorts of wonderful surprises. Since then, we’ve all become a bit more mindful, experimented in the kitchen more, and have been exercising more regularly (give yourselves a pat on the back, ladies). But perhaps the best change of all that’s come […]
Candice Kumai Will Inspire To Host a Festive Holiday Brunch
The other day, my morning spin instructor played that great Alicia Keys song, Girl on Fire, and as I sweated it out and thought about some of the powerful women I knew, Candice Kumai came to mind. I’ve know this bestselling author, chef, contributor to E! News and the Today show (among others) over the […]
Maggie Goen Buckley
Maggie Goen Buckley is one of those people with truly enviable taste. Every time I’m lucky enough to be invited into her home, I leave feeling inspired to make my own space more fun. (You may remember Maggie and Patrick’s unbelievable wedding weekend in San Miguel I wrote about last year.) That said, I was beyond excited […]
The Infinite Monkey Theorem’s Meredith and Aaron
Take a drive down South Congress past the historic photo ops and crowded restaurants and you’ll spot The Infinite Monkey Theorem, an urban winery owned by Colorado natives Meredith and Aaron Berman. These two partners in life and in business make their wine out of a warehouse in South Austin, and their brand’s most sought after product […]
An Unforgettable Dinner Party with Raven + Lily
Last month I gathered with a group of friends and fashion-lovers 30 minutes outside Austin in the country at Green Acres. The plan was to meet at the home of Kirsten Dickerson, owner of ethical fashion and lifestyle brand Raven + Lily, for an evening to celebrate slow food, slow fashion, and thoughtful living. Though the concept […]
How This Juice Queen Hosts Brunch For Friends
My favorite stories in our Entertaining With series have one thing in common: when the hostess is having every bit as much fun as her guests, it shows. After many mutual friends told us we had to meet, Juice Society founder Danielle Sobel and I finally bonded over omelettes at Elizabeth Street Café, and I was immediately impressed by […]
Entertaining With Joey Wolffer
I can’t think of a more fitting subject to cap-off a sunshine and rosé-filled summer than the queen of pink wine herself, Joey Wolffer, who co-owns her family’s namesake vineyard and has helped turn it into the liquid accessory of the summer. Speaking of accessories, Joey also runs The Styleliner, a mobile fashion truck that features independent […]
This San Diego Blogger Does Backyard Entertaining Right
We’ve had a serious girl crush on Sarah Yates Mora ever since she was the editor of our “super foodie” column long ago. The girl has major style — she can somehow make anything (like, even vacuuming the house while pregnant) look incredibly chic and stylish. So obviously we were over the moon when she […]
Entertaining With Bonni Taylor
One of the greatest perks of having creative job is getting to meet the coolest women. Case in point: Bonni Taylor, floral designer extraordinaire at Posey, entrepreneur and co-owner of The Little Posey, and as evidenced by today’s story, a home entertaining savant. When on location at a recent event, I couldn’t help but perk up when I […]
How A Vogue Editor Does Dinner Parties
Alexandra Macon and Andee Olson met in 2010 while working at Vogue.com and became fast friends — after all they were both Southern girls living and working in New York City. Fast forward six years, and while the two no longer work together officially (Andee went on to become the Site Director for The Coveteur), last summer they reunited to launch a collaborative labor […]

Whitney and Danielle, started Sakara Life, a plant-based organic delivery service that makes eating delicious food that will fuel the body and the mind incredibly easy – all with the […]
Sara Dickerman
Even though my cookbook collection keeps growing, there are always one or two that I end up actually cooking from all the time. This year, I became instantly obsessed with cooking my way through Bon Appétit: The Food Lover’s Cleanse, thanks to its beautifully seasonal approach to simple home cooking. A friend intro’d me to its author, James Beard-award winning writer Sara […]
Jenni Kayne’s Cali Cool Brunch
My girl crush on designer Jenni Kayne was born a few years ago — I *think* it was when I first laid eyes on her enviable Beverly Hills pad that was my ideal mix of modern and cozy. Or maybe it was when I saw the photos from the stunning holiday party she hosted there. In any […]
