“Wait, I can’t believe we haven’t done a roundup of canopy beds before,” was a sentence uttered in this office that was met with a moment of silence, followed by hysterical laughter. “What? Who doesn’t like a canopy?” I defended myself in earnest. “No, we like them…” Chanel said. “It’s just that they’re so… specific,” […]
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 […]
There’s always a steady stream of books arriving at the office for review, and I’m definitely not complaining. Occasionally, one really stands out from the rest, like Ariella Chezar’s new book The Flower Workshop that arrived on our doorstep a couple weeks ago. We asked Ariella to stop by with the details on what turned out to be our favorite project […]
The fact that I actually get to use pinterest on the daily for my work is pretty much proof that I’m in my own version of a dream job. Of all my social media accounts, my pinterest feed is definitely my happy place. For me, it feels like pure exploration. Over the years I’ve discovered […]
When it comes to beauty, it’s often true that we always want what we weren’t naturally born with, and that would certainly explain my lifelong obsession with full, shapely brows. Back in junior high, when pencil thin brows had a short moment in the sun, all my barely-there brows needed was a quick visit with the […]
My morning routine tends to be a rushed one. As hard as I’ve tried to force myself to be an early riser, I typically find myself squeezing in every possible second of shut-eye, then hopping out of bed with just enough time shower, dress and grab breakfast to-go before heading into the office. My favorite […]
Hello, dear readers, and happy Monday. I hope that Saint Valentine visited each of you this weekend and left you with a bit of chocolate, poetry, or perhaps a flirty text from the cute guy at the office. Michael and I decided to jet off to Jamaica for a long weekend, and I’ve returned to […]
I have horrible sitting habits. As I type this, my right foot is on the ground, while my left leg is folded in, with my left foot tucked under my bum. I’m leaning slightly to the right, causing my shoulder on one side to tense up and be a few inches higher than the other, while I […]
Step one to being happier at home, live in this picture perfect Parisian walk up. But if step one isn’t an option, there are plenty of other ways to be happier in your home this year. Studies show that experiences have a longer lasting effect on our happiness than things do, so start by thinking about what experiences make […]
Hey peeps, we’ve been working on some really cool video projects that I can’t wait to share here soon. It’s the first time we’ve concepted and produced our own videos strictly for the blog — people have been asking us for ages why we didn’t do video, but I had to find a personally compelling enough […]
Aside from being the first day back in the office in 2016, it’s an especially exciting day around here: our team has been working on a few big updates, and we’re pretty thrilled to finally share what’s new. But first, some background. For the past year or so, I’ve been pushing myself to step back and take a […]
