The thing about brussels sprouts is – they can be so good, or so very, very bad. Depending on the preparation, you could end up with roasted sprouts that are charred and crispy-caramelized on their leafy edges, or steamed sprouts that are mushy and watery (eww.) And then there’s the seasoning to think about, because […]
There’s no question that many of us have a deeply personal relationship with our hair. Have you ever noticed that a bad hair day can equal a bad day? And when our hair feels healthy and like a reflection of who we truly are, it can help us feel at ease in our own skin […]
Recently, Allure magazine took issue with the term “anti-aging”, and I have to say, that’s totally awesome. As the magazine admits, not everything about getting older is wonderful—but the idea that aging is something that we need to fight every chance that we get is sexist and frankly, dated. There is a unique beauty and […]
The slip dress, ladies and gentlemen. The fashion gods have spoken, and what was once considered an undergarment is now the must-have item of the season. And hey, we’re not complaining. Nothing is more comfortable than a silky, loose fitting midi, and since the slip dress layers with virtually anything, we have a feeling this […]
While I consider myself an aspiring minimalist when it comes to my home, I also feel right at home in an antique mall. The collections of Depression glassware, vintage hats and antique chairs really get me going, but how do I exercise my love of these things and avoid my number one enemy: clutter? This […]
We all want to be saving. But sometimes the desire isn’t enough to get us where we want to be financially. And for many of us, when unexpected career changes or life things happen, saving is the first thing to get bumped off the priorities list. But what if saving didn’t have to mean making a […]
We’re deep into pumpkin season and I think we can all admit that as cliché as the flavor can be this time of year, we still love it. There’s just something so perfect about opening up a can of that bright orange fruit to bake up a good ‘ole pumpkin pie, cake, or bread that makes […]
Spooky AND chic.
If there’s one workday errand I always love, it’s being the one who gets to drive over to Austin Flower Company and pick out flowers for a shoot. So when Camille had the idea for us to create a simple guide to fall flowers, I jumped at the chance to oversee the project. I knew […]
While I’m not totally freaked out by the idea of making pie from scratch (Callie helped demystify it here and showed us how to decorate it here), let’s just say that it still feels like a big production for me. One that I’d attempt when I have a long, lazy Sunday afternoon ahead of me, or maybe for […]
One of the many benefits of moving through your day in a more mindful, present way is the opportunity to observe and notice how you are feeling physically, energetically and mentally at any given moment. I dare say all of us have experienced feeling drained and sluggish at one point or another. I’ve created this […]
We love millennial pink as much as the next girl, but after a couple years of looking at everything through a blush colored lens, we’re ready for a new color to reign supreme. And with fall slowly but surely sneaking up on us, we’ve found ourselves favoring richer tones to keep us feeling cozy. Although […]
