Nothing’s better than settling into a sunny spot with an iced coffee and a good book in the summertime, am I right? The sheer act of making a summer reading list of all the books I want to read over the next 3 months feels like a physical reminder to make time to slow down […]
It’s no secret that I’m the cooking novice of the CS Team. What the rest of the team doesn’t know is that I’ve been secretly upping my game in the kitchen with Plated for a few months. It’s a personalized subscription meal service that allows even beginners like me to cook restaurant-worthy meals at home […]
Editor’s note: It’s no secret that I’m a superfan of the blog The House That Lars Built. My friend Brittany, the founder and mastermind behind it, is truly one of the most talented creatives I’ve ever met, and well, she’s also just a delightful human. For that reason, today I’m thrilled to share an excerpted […]
images by Kristen Kilpatrick Now that the weather’s getting warmer, there’s no way I’d rather spend a sunny Sunday afternoon that shopping for plants to add to my growing collection (pun intended.) While Adam’s the master of our backyard landscaping, I’ve started quite the indoor garden of my own made up almost entirely of succulents […]
image from gal meets glam The last time I was in Paris was by far the most magical. It wasn’t the weather, or the fact that it was the week before my wedding… I think the best thing about our visit was the time we spent on Canal Saint Martin. The canal is by far […]
I’m just going to say it: this year’s House Party In The Hills blew past years’ out of the water. This was our third annual bash during SXSW, and thanks to perfect weather, our amazing partners at Who What Wear and Madewell, and a hard-to-beat guest list, it was one for the books. With a […]
Why am I assuming that your book club is, in fact, off track? Because it is. Has been for a while. Let’s face it — you haven’t met in months (and you spent most of the last meeting talking about Oscar screeners.) As millennial women, we’re consistently drawn to the idea of the bookclub without […]

There’s nothing better than kicking off a fresh new year with a clean slate. That is, unless you start it off with some extra cash lining your pocket. While some companies reward their employees during the holidays with decadent parties and paid time off, many offer a year-end cash bonus. Before you spend it all […]
Merry Christmas Eve, friends! Hope you’re having a cozy morning and that your day ahead is filled with love and joy. We’ve had a rocky start to the holiday – Henry (among other family members) came down with the flu a couple days ago, and there are few things sadder than a 2-year-old who feels […]
Around the holidays, adding a handmade touch to the table feels especially in keeping with the sentimental vibe of the season. Crafting your own place cards or centerpieces adds a wonderfully personal touch to the table — and they’re likely to become keepsakes, carefully unpacked year after year.
