When I got married 5 years ago, I bypassed the special occasion china registry in favor of registering for a large selection of sturdy, everyday dishes. For me, it represented a future full of fun, casual gatherings surrounded by lots of people we loved — and it’s come true! Target’s newest campaign, “Be Yourself Together,” […]
The challenge of living in a loft is that you can see everything from every vantage point. And the beauty of living in a loft is that you can see every piece of art, every vignette, and every piece of carefully chosen furniture from every vantage point! Despite the potential for design challenges, I prefer the […]
We’ve all been there: a closet full of clothes with nothing to wear. Sure, we have that handful of staple pieces that we couldn’t possibly live without, but the rest of our wardrobes can go untouched for weeks, months, or even years. I personally found myself in a dire state of closet disrepair a few months ago, around the […]
When I first embarked on this journey, my only real goal was to simply get healthy. I didn’t set a lot of rules around the number of days I should exercise or amount of vegetables to consume. My energy was spent on finding workouts that I liked, cleaning up my diet and making sure I was having […]
When it comes to working out, I’m a big believer in consistency: I feel so much better when I get moving and do something active every single day, even if it’s small like taking a brisk walk around the neighborhood or running around the yard with Phoebe. Working these simple forms of exercise into normal life […]
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 […]
Like many of you, I’m dashing through this week: tying up loose ends at work, finishing up holiday shopping and making my rounds at all the holiday parties. Add in running, bike rides and squeezing in every pilates class I can, and essentially every second of every day is spoken for until I get to […]
With my favorite holiday of the year just over 2 weeks away, my mind is in dessert idea overdrive. From pies to cakes to tarts, the ways to finish Thanksgiving dinner on a sweet note are endless. Though I’m constantly scouring magazines and food blogs for the latest turkey day dessert recipes, I often find myself going back […]
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 […]
It seems time that we settle this little debate one once and for all: while the idea of not wearing white after Labor Day has been around for more than a century, passed down from one generation to the next, I think it’s safe to say that it’s no longer relevant. For starters, take a […]
They say you can judge the economy by the rise and fall of the current season’s hemlines. If the same is true for waistlines, then I would say things are looking up! I’m not afraid to admit that in high school I owned denim so low that the zipper became some sort of superfluous accessory […]
When I was pregnant, I read the book Bringing Up Bébé about the benefits of the French parenting style. In one scene, the author recounts an experience where she watched one of her friends bake a cake with her 3-year-old daughter — a relaxing weekend tradition that is de rigueur in many French households. Ever since, I’ve carried around a […]
