Morning friends! I’m taking it a little slower this morning after two long days and late nights at the ACL Festival. We’ve totally lucked out with the most sunny, beautiful weather, and it’s weekends like these that make me extra happy to live in Austin. Yesterday, we took Phoebe to the shows for a few […]
It doesn’t take more than spending a few minutes with Catherine Stiles to think to yourself: Can we be best friends? Not only does being tight with her mean access to some of the greatest barbecue in the country at her husband’s Stiles Switch BBQ & Brew, but it also comes with a lifetime membership to some of the best Texas-style […]
Tuesday blues got you down? If you ask me, there’s nothin’ like a dose of puppy love to turn things around, and today’s pooch-of-the-hour is one who always puts a smile on my face. You might recognize Chelsea Fullerton Jones as the mastermind behind Go Forth or the subject of this gorgeous feature, but to me, she’s mama to […]
Of all the shoes in my closet, my current favorites are a pair of dark burgundy velvet smoking loafers. They’re everything I want in a shoe: comfortable, feminine, old-world feeling, and a little bit edgy. They’re just plain chic, and that’s the beauty of the loafer. It’s an up-f0r-anything kind of shoe. A shoe that […]
I’ll be honest – sitting down to write this post was more of a challenge than I expected. I’ve always considered myself a confident person: I thrive in groups even when I don’t know a lot of people, I’ve never had a problem with public speaking and I love meeting new people. I’m an extrovert, […]
I don’t need a personal chef — I enjoy cooking too much to hand that task off to someone else. I don’t even want someone to go grocery shopping for me, because strolling through the farmer’s market and trying inspiring samples at the store is half the fun. Want to know what I would love help with? Planning my meals out each week. […]
The defining moment for me happened last April. My fellow Rapha Ambassadors and I were headed out for our final and longest day of riding. I looked around at my ride group and took inventory: “fast, fast, great climber, pro, fast, lives on the podium.” Out of everyone, I was the newest to cycling. I […]
Thinking of upcoming subjects for our Dream Job series, we knew this was one job that would resonate with almost all of our readers. Who hasn’t cruised pinterest and thought wouldn’t it be fun to dream up amazing parties for a living? Chances are, you’ve already seen images of Lisa’s work — her beautifully detailed events […]
Have I mentioned that I finally have a spiralizer in my life? I don’t know why I waited so long (especially since I’ve been pinning zucchini noodle “pastas” for months now) but ever since I added this model to my kitchen gadget collection, I’ve been making noodles out of, well, just about anything that can become a […]
What do my mom’s salmon chraimeh, Camille’s mom’s almond bread and Morgan’s mom’s chicken parm all have in common? Besides for the fact that they’re delicious beyond belief, each one is the kind of dish that can only be learned firsthand. In their cases, a written recipe in a book doesn’t compare to standing beside the cook herself and hearing […]
In case you’ve been living under a rock, school is officially in session! And whether you have kids or not, ’tis the season for simple healthy snacks that will give you (and your dependents) the energy to go from work or school to whatever activities the evening may hold. We loved partnering with Patricia’s Table […]
We’ve all been there — seated at a table of fifteen girls trying to figure out the bill at an expensive restaurant. In the end, you’re not quite satisfied. You paid too much, ate too little, and could only talk to the girls seated directly next to you. It wasn’t quality time, and yet it […]
