Insert heart eyes.

2017 has been an exciting year of travel for me. I’ve been to Tulum, Mexico City, Todos Santos, Barcelona, and June marked my first ever trip to Italy. While never unpacking your suitcase offers it’s own off-the-rails kind of fun, it tends to go hand-in-hand with never buying groceries, overspending, and forgetting that the concept […]

I caught the premiere of David Gordon Green’s Manglehorn during SXSW in 2014. (I remember spending a good part of the day waiting in the long line that wrapped around the Paramount theater to get in.) Turns out that Shane and Anna were there, too — they had met two years earlier by chance on the […]

This weekend I’m headed south to my happy place — the soft sandy beaches of Tulum. If you follow me on instagram then you already know I’m somewhat addicted to Mexico in general, and I love exploring new areas of this beautiful and mysterious country. But Tulum is a place I find myself drawn to […]

ed note: When we heard that our friend, Tara Miko, was headed to Tulum to dine at the once-in-a-lifetime Noma pop-up, we begged her to capture it all and report back. Here she shares the highlights, the food porn, and everything you need to know about traveling Tulum, even if a table at Noma’s not on your agenda. […]

The idea of toting a straw bag to the beach is nothing new. This year, however, we’re seeing woven bags venture out of the sand and into, well, just about everywhere. From dressier clutches to casual cross-bodies, it seems all our favorite bag shapes have been given beachy make-unders that make them perfect for summer […]

Why wait for Memorial Day? Here at the CS office, we say summer starts on May 5, and Cinco de Mayo may be our all-time favorite holiday. We’ll do anything for a mouth-watering margarita on a warm spring day, and can’t get enough of Mexican-inspired ruffled tops and embroidered blouses. After hearing about Jenn’s recent vacation to Hotel […]

Two weeks ago I had the most magical dinner at a restaurant called Hierbabuena in Todos Santos, Mexico. The baja peninsula region is arid and desert-like, surrounded by water. The quiet Sea of Cortez is to the east, with the harsh waves of the Pacific to the west. After the long, bumpy, incredibly dusty drive to the property […]

When interior designer Allison Crawford returned from a recent birthday spent in Paris, she couldn’t wait to invite her best girlfriends over to share all the highlights from the trip. Allison’s downtown Austin loft apartment is a lot like her designs — bright, sophisticated, with a healthy dose of seventies glam. We met up with Allison and […]

There are a few things you need to know before talking with a graphic designer. Number one: it’s a typeface, not a font. (Or if you really want to be cool, just “face” for short). Number two: while graphic designers are often introverted people who prefer to work behind-the-scenes, get them talking about type and […]

Last month I gathered with a group of friends and fashion-lovers 30 minutes outside Austin in the country at Green Acres. The plan was to meet at the home of Kirsten Dickerson, owner of ethical fashion and lifestyle brand Raven + Lily, for an evening to celebrate slow food, slow fashion, and thoughtful living. Though the concept […]

It feels like every couple days I’m asked what my “wedding colors” are, and each time, I offer the same underwhelming answer: “I… don’t really have any?” Sure, there’ll be plenty of white and ivory, and lots of greens too, plus some blush, some blues, and oh yeah, there’s that one lilac element too… Since our wedding design doesn’t […]
