It was the biggest viral phenomenon of 2015, meaning it’s just begging for an homage this Halloween. I’ll never forget the moment my brother showed me a photo of a dress and asked what colors I saw (team #whiteandgold, by the way)… thirty minutes later, the internet had lost its collective mind over this thing. I mean, […]
Did you happen to catch Cindy Crawford’s lake retreat in this year’s September issue of Vogue? It’s rustic preppy perfection (and it should be, since she had a friend from Ralph Lauren help with the decorating). We all swooned over the dreamy feature here in the office, and it definitely re-awakened some old lake house […]
Here in Austin, we’re in major ACL Festival mode — we caught some amazing shows last weekend, and we’re gearing up for Weekend 2 starting this Friday! This year’s schedule includes an incredible lineup of bands, both big name and up-and-comers, and I’m super excited to be teaming up with SkinnyPop to giveaway two 3-day passes to […]
Morning friends! I’m taking it a little slower this morning after two long days and late nights at the ACL Festival. We’ve totally lucked out with the most sunny, beautiful weather, and it’s weekends like these that make me extra happy to live in Austin. Yesterday, we took Phoebe to the shows for a few […]
It doesn’t take more than spending a few minutes with Catherine Stiles to think to yourself: Can we be best friends? Not only does being tight with her mean access to some of the greatest barbecue in the country at her husband’s Stiles Switch BBQ & Brew, but it also comes with a lifetime membership to some of the best Texas-style […]
It’s no secret that veggies are having a major moment. Even the most enthusiastic carnivores among us are wising up to the fact that when it comes to brilliant color, fresh flavor and endless variety, vegetables are hard to beat. I’m always shocked when I hear people say that they don’t like vegetables, but after […]
Usually, fall beauty trends are all about smoky eyes, contoured cheekbones, wine-tinged lips (or all of the above.) But this season, the focus is on fresh, glowing skin — a dewiness that comes from being healthy and taking care of yourself from the inside-out, and using makeup to reveal the best version of yourself instead of covering up […]
I don’t know what I ate before quinoa became a permanent pantry staple of mine. It sounds cliche given how much quinoa has been dubbed a “trendy” food, but if you ask me, the grain is here to stay. I usually make a big batch at the beginning of the week (practically with my eyes […]
Happy First Day of Fall! Can you believe it’s already here? Autumn’s arrival definitely snuck up this year, leaving me feeling slightly sad for missed opportunities to spend lazy days by the pool and evenings barbecuing with friends, but also hopeful and excited for crisp mornings, tall leather boots, and the twinkly magic of the […]
In case you’ve been living under a rock, brows are back in a MAJOR way this fall. We’re talking full, youthful, wild, amazing brows. Think Cara Delevigne, or better yet — a young Brooke Shields. After over two decades of tedious eyebrow grooming, those of us with naturally full brows are especially stoked to step […]
In my unofficial studies (read: in my casual polling of friends) it seems that, somehow, eyeshadow is one of the most intimidating products in the beauty world. Not eyeliner, not lipstick, not even self-tanner. Somehow, of my non-beauty-editor friends, not one wears eyeshadow. And I’m not quite sure why. Compared to eyeliner and mascara, shadow […]
Gallery walls can be an intimidating project to start because as we all know, the best collections are acquired over time. And finding the art is just the first step. You still have to frame it all in a coordinated fashion and arrange and hang them in a formation that’s pleasing to the eye. So if, like […]
