Lately on the blog, we’ve been talking a lot about female mentorships: the importance of finding someone who’s walked in your shoes before and is willing to share the wisdom they’ve picked up along the way to inspire your ideas and actions. So, I’m really excited to be part of Interview magazine and La Crema Wines Statement Makers […]
I used to think that the biggest temptation this time of the year were the sweet treats being passed around at every turn, but now the older and wiser me realizes that the real temptation is shopping for yourself while checking off that holiday list. Am I right? How are we supposed to resist all […]
‘Tis the season: for socializing, merrymaking, and, of course, finding the perfect gift for every person on that very long list of yours. I’ll admit that I’m not necessarily the best or most original gifter in the world — I mean, what does one get one’s beloved father-in-law who neither wants nor needs anything? — […]
These past couple of weeks have included a whole lot of coat chatter here at the Camille Styles office. Chanel got her hands on the perfect denim jacket (steal!), Camille scored herself an Emmerson Fry wardrobe staple, Kelly and I swooned over a few J. Crew gems (for petites), and Jenn is still scavenging the Internet […]
I love sending Christmas cards every year — it’s the perfect time to pen a simple note to the people I care about, many of whom live far away. But all too often the act of sending cards can be fraught with stress (yet another thing to check off the do list during this busy […]
The word on the street (or at least, in our office) is that Camille’s mom knits up the world’s coziest and downright dreamiest knitted cowl scarves. So while I still yearn for my very own homemade chunky knit collection (hint hint) I’ve found myself fantasizing about cozy chunky sweaters, embellishing my wardrobe with warm knitted socks, and […]

Happy weekend! This morning I’m feeling so thankful for sunny skies — my Austin book party is happening on a grassy lawn outside Hotel Ella at brunch today, and the weather is definitely cooperating to make it a perfect celebration. Can’t wait to see so many of you there! (it’s not to late to RSVP!) What are all […]
Okay, brace yourselves because I am about to drop a doozy of announcement on all of you: I’ve never before owned a pair of ankle booties. I know!!! You should have heard the collective gasp that happened at the Camille Styles office when I revealed that tidbit the other day. There hasn’t been a major […]
I didn’t have to look far to find the models for this installment of Double Take…in fact, I just had to look across the office as today’s models are none other than my talented co-workers, Chanel and Jenn. We all got excited when we spotted this kate spade new york wool capelette, and I couldn’t […]
A family that plays together stays together. But what about a family that works together, from home, across two different cities? Judging by the life that the Wixoms have made, they not only stay together, but flourish and make adorable babies. Austinites Kris and Alisa Wixom (say that two times fast!) are co-creative directors for advertising […]
Today marks the inaugural post in our new series called “The Essential Pieces,” which is a bit of a milestone for Camille Styles as our first ever style series that stars…moi! I’ve got to admit that it’s a little intimidating to create an entire series that’s so closely tied to my own personal style, and for awhile I […]
