I don’t know about your hometowns, but when the Splash Pads opened in Austin on May 17, it seemed that everyone in the city was there to ring in the occasion. It’s one of the most popular ways parents find free fun and an escape from the heat during the hottest months of the year. […]
We missed our fearless leader this week while she has been away on her big 30th birthday/5 year wedding anniversary trip to St. Tropez (check out Camille’s dreamy Instagram photos of the trip so far) and can’t wait for her return this week — in the mean time, I wanted to chime in and share […]
The first day of summer may be June 21st, but I think summer came a little earlier this year! I’m already stocking my fridge with watermelon and popsicles, lathering on the sunscreen, and hopping in the pool every chance I get. So it shouldn’t be a surprise that I’m already planning a few pool parties […]
I am always a sucker for anything old-school prep, so it was vintage love at first sight when I laid eyes on a Criquet Shirt a few years ago. They are super soft, available in an array of fun colors and remind me of a cool version of the golf shirts my dad rocked on […]
The simplest breakfasts are often the most delicious. Much like the beloved avocado toast, it doesn’t take a lot of ingredients to form an addiction. My boyfriend made this delicious combination for me on a whim, and since then, I can’t get enough. It’s the perfect flavor for a light, early Summer breakfast. Ingredients: 2 large […]
It’s been a really lovely weekend around here so far… one final birthday blowout with my nearest and dearest, reading magazines by the pool with these smoothies in hand, and tonight, staying in and making dinner and watching movies. And of course, dreaming and making final plans for our trip to St. Tropez next week! […]
One of my favorite aspects of fashion is watching how American style changes drastically through the years… and then simply cycles back and repeats. Things might have changed just a bit since the first Memorial Day held back in 1868, but it’s still worth noting the way that history inspires today’s modern wardrobe. Regardless of past style […]
Cheers to a long weekend (and the unofficial kickoff to summer!) I’m happy to say that I have almost zero plans for the next three days, which thankfully leaves plenty of time for spontaneous outings, long brunches and impromptu barbecues with friends. Or even just the luxury of cracking open this book (I’ve wanted to read […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year… and we’re looking for any and every excuse to kick back and celebrate. So, when kate spade new york asked us to throw a pool party inspired by their latest collection, it was a total no-brainer. Bursting with vibrant colors, adorable toucan details and floral motifs, each […]
It started with those popsicles… I spotted them and suddenly I could taste summer. There’s just something about those hot colors that just screams fun-in-the-sun, and the weather in Austin is calling for just that. With temps in the 70’s & 80’s, clear skies and cool breezes, we’ve had the most gorgeous few days, and popsicles, sorbet […]
Happy weekend, lovelies! What are all of you up to on this lovely almost-summer Saturday? It’s been a very full week with photo shoots (this one was epic), hanging with Phoebe and planning some upcoming travel, but overall, it was a great one. There’s nothing better than when work feels more like play, and when […]
Over the weekend, we had a few friends over to jump in the pool and fire up the barbecue, and all of a sudden I remembered why May is my favorite month of the year. There’s something so thrilling about an entire summer stretching ahead, with Memorial Day cookouts and lazy days by the pool […]
