After nearly two years of working on this project, I woke up this morning pinching myself that my book, Camille Styles Entertaining, hits bookstore shelves and doorsteps around the country today. I am so excited to finally share the book, with its 75 original recipes, tons of floral design tips, inspiring table designs, and ideas for living […]
This weekend is full of last-minute prep… I almost feel like I’m getting ready to have a baby as I double check that everything’s in order before I hop on a flight to NYC tomorrow in anticipation of my book launch on Tuesday. I’m still in the throes of picking out outfits and packing for events […]
Get out your costume and stock up on fun-size candies because it’s (almost) Halloween! I can hardly contain my excitement, as Halloween marks the start of my favorite season of the year. For me, the day signifies the beginning of non-stop holiday baking and countless festive gatherings with friends and family. I’ve rounded up the 10 best Halloween desserts because there’s no […]
photographed by Jessica Attie As children we tend to dream of the place we’ll live as adults, and that our best friends will be right next door. Turns out that street really does exist — we found it in a quiet corner of Travis Heights, a historic neighborhood in South Austin. None of the four […]
I love a warm, spiced muffin as soon as the temperatures begin to drop. I know most jump for pumpkin bread and the like, but I love the simple flavors of maple, molasses and lots of Autumn spices. These muffins are perfect for breakfast, as a mid-day snack and they’re even great for dessert (maybe add […]
Even as the founder of the beautiful and coveted wedding blog Style Me Pretty and a mother of three, Abby Larson still finds time to entertain and fill her home with the people she loves on a regular basis.

Yesterday, we shared the vibrant Dia de los Muertos bash we threw with Veuve Clicquot, and today I’m dishing up the delicious recipes and sweet treats that we paired with our bubbly. I love any excuse to celebrate, and a Dia de los Muertos party just might become an annual tradition after this sunny afternoon spent with beautiful flowers, great food, and lots of Clicquot in hand to […]
I’ve always been intrigued by the Mexican tradition of Dia de los Muertos (also Day of the Dead), which incorporates symbols that we typically think of as “creepy” like skulls and bones…but is actually a true celebration of departed loved ones and life! Instead of being dark and brooding, it’s a holiday that’s brimming with […]
If I had to eat only one food for the rest of my life, I think I’d choose ice cream. I’ll gladly devour any flavor, from roasted beet to plain old vanilla, fancy artisanal versions or DQ soft serve (remember “dip cones?”)… I’m pretty obsessed with it all. Since we’re still feeling summertime temps here in Austin, I’m holding onto ice cream […]
You’ve got the inspiration and your menu is set… the only thing left? Do-it-yourself decor elements that’ll have guests buzzing, and a little piece of the party for them to take home as favors. Thankfully, both details can come together in a flash, and require nothing more than a few materials you likely already own, and […]
Just in the same way everyone told me I should be prepared for the gigantic life changes that come with becoming a mom, it seemed that I got even more knowing looks and words of advice about getting ready for what some say is an even bigger transition — having baby number two! We welcomed […]
