I’ve never been to Maine, but I know I’d love it there. Growing up, one of my close friends headed east each summer to spend 6 weeks rope swinging and eating fresh seafood with her family, and I couldn’t help but feel the steady onset of jealousy upon hearing the stories and seeing the photos […]
I’ve got to admit, one of the most fun parts of having a 3-year-old daughter is that I finally have an excuse to plan parties with incredibly girly themes like “Woodland Fairy.” And now that Phoebe is old enough to have strong opinions of her own, she gets to weigh in with a birthday party wish […]
Hi guys, hope you’re having a great weekend so far! We’re doing our best to soak up the last vibes of summer with a trip to the farmers’ market, a homemade batch of frozen margaritas, and mainly just spending as many hours in our swimsuits as possible. Can’t believe it’s the last weekend before Labor […]
We’ve been in denial for weeks, but the date on the calendar makes it official: mid-August means summer is coming to an end. Nooo! The cucumbers! The peaches! The tomatoes! It’s hard to imagine life without the amazing produce that summer has to offer, and even though we’ve had a blast experimenting with all the ripe ingredients (remember […]
I don’t think of myself as a jealous person, but that little kid inside me is green with envy over this wonderful, whimsical children’s party. Hosted by the ever-talented Merrilee Liddiard — blogger behind Mer Mag and author of Playful — the grown-up dessert spread at this soiree makes for the most lavish kids buffet ever. Combine that […]
I’ll never forget meeting Katie Turpin for the first time at Camille’s San Antonio book signing — it was a cold winter’s night and she stood out (in a sea of fur coats and flat ironed hair) for having that seriously perfect I’m-not-trying-too-hard natural beauty. We struck up a conversation that was adorably interrupted by […]
The ladies behind this Houston baby shower had the right idea. When asked what her number one rule was, co-host Megan Swartz Gellert replied, “If you have fun, interesting people in your life, every gathering will be a good time.” Combine that mentality with great taste, a gorgeous space, and this stylin’ Texas couple, and […]
Seems like there’s always a new “it” superfood popping up in the news, from bee pollen to spirulina to chia seeds. But what’s the element that makes a so-called superfood… truly super? Since there’s truth to the saying that “you are what you eat,” my definition is a fresh, whole food that’s naturally bursting with vitamins and minerals, […]
concept and styling by ricki weiner • photographed by heather kinkel It’s no secret that we’ve got a weakness for fiestas here at Camille Styles, and when we got wind of this creative supergroup in Phoenix we couldn’t wait to see their take on Cinco de Mayo. Ricki Weiner, stylist and curator of la Ricki, […]
Heidi Swanson’s cookbooks are deeply rooted in a sense of place. Her personal anecdotes and signature, muted photographs paint a rich picture of her busy and interesting life in idyllic Northern California. Heidi has written two cookbooks and her highly anticipated third, Near & Far: Recipes Inspired by Home and Travel, is due out this […]
photographed by kate lesueur When we were working with Eleanor and Adam last fall to do an “Entertaining With” feature, we got an unexpected but exciting call. “We may have to put the shoot on hold,” said Adam. “We just put an offer on a house!” Fast-forward four months later and you’d never believe this […]
This weekend I’m in freezing New York City with my mom celebrating her 60th birthday. It’s really awesome to be here together — my mom’s first trip to NYC! — going to museums, Broadway, eating so much amazing food, and savoring this all-too-rare time with just the two of us. Hope you’re all having a lovely […]
