Hello October! Camille’s Letter from the Editor
This month we’re all about dreams.
This month we’re all about dreams.
No need to spend time lurking your favorite accounts to find out where they get their inspiration — we already did the work for you. Comparison really is the death of joy. Mark Twain had it right, all those years ago. At Career Contessa, we think your social media feeds shouldn’t be about comparison. They should […]
Maybe it’s the un-PC nature of our biological clocks, or just good old-fashioned societal pressure, but it seems that women are especially susceptible to timelined expectations in life. Many of us want to achieve status in our dream jobs by 30, be married with multiple kids by 35, sell the company by 40… etc, etc. […]
Recently, I found out that a work project that I’d spent weeks preparing for wasn’t going to happen. The opportunity was scrapped for reasons out of my control, and when the news dropped into my inbox, I immediately felt that familiar pit deep in my stomach that always seems to accompany true disappointment. (Also, how […]
Half-way through Summer ’17, and it’s already going down in my book as one of the best ever. The reason? Because this summer, more than last year and the year before, I’ve found myself spending tons of time on the water. From this unforgettable day at sea with the team to an afternoon on the Mediterranean with family, I’ve […]
After weeks of cookies, cocktails and indulging without abandon, I decided that January 2017 needed to be a month without refined sugars. A brave move for a baker (read: sugar addict), I know, but when moderation no longer holds meaning, work has to be done. I’ve spent the last four weeks rediscovering my love for […]
Editor’s note: Last year, Amy Vance of Eco Modern Concierge joined us to share her holiday gift-giving organizational tips. Believe it or not, her wisdom inspired me to actually get my act together a bit more this season, and as a result, I’m feeling — dare I say it — quite relaxed! She joins us again this year […]
Our team recently spent an entire afternoon in the office reminiscing over the fun of childhood sleepovers — the brat pack movies, the pizza, the epic games of truth or dare. So when our friends at Botanics invited us to throw a grown-up slumber party with their gorgeous plant-based skincare, it was an obvious yes. We couldn’t […]
We wanted to create an ambitious and romantic hairstyle for Valentine’s Day this year, and Erica Rae did not let us down with this incredible half-up look. As senior stylist at Roar Salon in Austin, Erica was able to dissect this complicated knot in no time. “It took me a couple of tries,” she laughs, […]
Who’s resolving to start the day with healthier breakfasts this year? Let us know! We want to see how you’re working towards all your 2016 goals with the hashtag #ViveLaResolution. Whether it’s a nutritious meal, a new skill you’re developing, or a healthy habit, post it on Instagram with the hashtag and tag @camillestyles in the image. We’ll be regramming […]
It seems like every December we overhear some grumpy chatter about New Year’s Eve being the most overrated holiday of the year. But we’ve always known exactly what this holiday is — an excuse to wear head to toe sequins, regardless of social setting. Our advice? Worry less about finding something impressive to do and […]
If you saw last week’s special on 3 Genius Eye Makeup Tutorials then you know we’re total suckers for makeup-based costumes. Makeup can be so transformative, and (added bonus) gets you out of spending money on an expensive costume. This Ziggy Stardust-inspired look is even better, because you can create it entirely using products you […]
