It’s ACL Festival weekend here in Austin, and for us, it’s been one of extremes: Friday was action-packed at the festival (Chvrches, Sam Smith, Foster the People), then yesterday we woke up to pouring rain and decided to sit it out and embrace a cozy day at home. Movies, popcorn, perusing Pinterest, making soup… I […]
Do you have a spirit place? The concept had never occurred to me before reading this post, but after a little consideration I knew without a doubt that my spirt place is New York City. I was 18 when I first visited as the most enthusiastic tourist Manhattan has ever seen. There is this convergence […]
If you caught Monday’s ghostly photo shoot, you may have noticed the the frightful bites and creepy cocktails that graced our wooded party. Since they’re perfect for just about any kind of Halloween bash, today we’re serving up the instructions and recipes for both those adorably spooky pumpkin macarons and Camille’s Poison Berry Smash cocktail. […]

Today marks the inaugural post in our new series called “The Essential Pieces,” which is a bit of a milestone for Camille Styles as our first ever style series that stars…moi! I’ve got to admit that it’s a little intimidating to create an entire series that’s so closely tied to my own personal style, and for awhile I […]
I’ve officially been bitten by the salted caramel bug. Salted caramel ice cream, salted caramel sauce (to drizzle over ice cream, of course), salted caramel brownies… there’s something about the toasty buttery flavor of caramel that’s just made for a sprinkle of sea salt, and I’ve recently caught myself fantasizing about how to add more of […]
As we head into the first weekend of Austin City Limits Music Festival, I am preparing for house guests. And there is truly nothing like a house guest to light a fire under your unfinished design projects! It is so useful to have a deadline to finally hang those curtains, frame that print, or even replace the lightbulb in […]
Some people hunt for buried treasure… others hunt for the it bag of the season. I, on the other hand, have been on a hunt that’s led me all over the internet, deep into my cookbook collection, and on countless trips to the produce aisle, as I try to unlock my own culinary mystery: how to […]
EDITOR’S NOTE: Team Camille Styles could easily be the founders of photographer Wynn Myers’ Fan Club. Her ethereal, colorful approach to photography always leaves us charmed and inspired. We all love seeing Wynn’s view of the world through her lens and getting to collaborate with her is an even bigger treat. After seeing her jaw dropping […]
Julia Turshen rocks my world. My copy of It’s All Good, the best-selling cookbook she co-wrote with Gwyneth Paltrow, is dog-eared, bookmarked and covered in curry from countless batches of my favorite Roasted Cauliflower + Chickpeas and Mustard. In addition to roasting vegetables with Gwyneth, Julia’s eaten kimchi with Jean-Georges and toured Spain with Mario Batali. […]
For better or worse, I (kelly) live for seizing the moment. Because I’m a firm believer that every day has the potential to be the best one yet, I often have a hard time turning down any opportunity to spend time with family, friends or travel. I have an even harder time if it’s a […]
The first time I encountered Keith Kreeger’s pottery was at the media preview dinner for Qui (which soon became one of Austin’s hottest dinner tickets in town.) I immediately noticed how Keith’s modern handmade pieces provided a welcome contrast to the striking food presentation on the plate, its simplicity highlighting the culinary artistry while also making it feel […]
