Do you ever wish you could streamline your aesthetic? As someone who dances up and down the style spectrum (urban one day, preppy the next; neutral-loving today, color-hungry tomorrow), I’ve always admired anyone who can zero in on their personal style and embrace it completely… which is precisely why Juley Le of Upperlyne & Co. […]
Happy Easter, friends! Hope you’re all having a lovely day filled with sweet things and sunshine. We’re spending the day with our families, and since Phoebe’s still the only grandchild on both sides (for 6 more weeks!), it’ll be all about her solo egg hunts. Which she doesn’t mind a bit, since it means she […]
Stepping into today’s colorful abode is at once breathtaking, inspiring, and like a big warm hug that invites you to sit down and stay awhile. That last part is no doubt due to the warmth of its owner, auburn-haired beauty, mother of 3, and talented Austin-based interior designer, Sarah Wittenbraker. Yep, Sarah would be easy to hate […]
The more conversations I have with my girlfriends, the more I realize: women are natural worriers. We worry about little things (I woke up at 2am last night with my mind racing about the wood floors we’re getting installed!) and the big things (families, health, job security… the list goes on.) However unpleasant it might […]
Earlier this month, I was chatting with my hair stylist and we began talking about the idea of the capsule wardrobe. I’m sure you’ve seen people posting about it as it’s becoming an increasingly popular idea. As soon as I walked in the door, I couldn’t help myself. I promptly put everything in my closet […]

Well, they’re probably rocking pretty great jobs by now. They might be human rights lawyers, magazine editors, or high powered attorneys. Or maybe they even grew up to become big-time […]
I’ve often scoffed at the phrase, “I’m going on a juice cleanse.” Mostly because those who were giving it a go were doing so as penance for an indulgent weekend or a fast solution to a larger problem. While there is something to be said for the need to reset the mind — or despite my disdain […]
Maybe it’s because this preggers girl is having sushi withdrawals, but lately, I’ve been craving lots of light, healthy fish dishes with spicy Asian flavors. Inspired by the teriyaki-glazed salmon I’ve ordered at more than one great restaurant, I set out to recreate my own version in a dinner party-worthy entrée that’s easy to prep at home […]
Adam and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary last June, and one thing I’ve learned over the years is the importance of showing little acts of romance — or even grander gestures once in awhile! It’s easy to become so comfortable with the person you wake up with each morning that you can forget to prioritize showing […]
photographed by priyanca rao For these three best friends and business partners, the hardest thing about happy hour these days is keeping the conversation off work. But hey, when you’re busy running a buzzed-about event design shop in Brooklyn, it’s impossible not to be excited about concepting the next big thing for your clients. “It’s […]
For me, a day at the office never looks the same… and I wouldn’t ask for it any other way! I might be at my desk working on blog posts or interviewing subjects, meeting with clients at a coffee shop, scouring local stores for props, or (as I was on the day these shots were taken), scouting cool […]
featured image from the sartorialist When we reconvened in the office for the new year, we realized that almost everyone on our team had some sort of financial resolution: to start saving, to start investing, or to simply start paying more attention to our monthly spending. We decided to look for an expert — someone […]
