The Best Tinted Moisturizers

I know, I know… it’s fall. So, you might expect me to be advising you to switch out the light tinted moisturizer that you wore all summer with a heavier, more opaque foundation in honor of the changing season…right? Well, if you’d like to get your foundation recommendations, you can head right over here. But […]

How to Create Faux Freckles with a Brow Pencil

Freckles seem to be one of those grass-is-always-greener traits: those who have them hate them and those who don’t have them wish that they did! As for our office, everyone is in complete agreement that freckles are a gorgeous feature. I’d heard rumor of an actual “freckle pencil” on the market, so I hit the mall […]

Over-The-Knee Boots

The number one sign that fall has arrived? (and no, I’m not talking about pumpkin spice lattés.) The arrival of a beautiful new pair of boots on my front porch, and an absolute craving to start wearing them despite the still 90-degree temps here in Austin. I’ve always been a boot girl; once October rolls around, I pretty […]

Mindful Mornings with Kick Pleat’s Inspiring Owner

Shop owner Wendi Koletar is a woman who inspires many adjectives: “She’s such a visionary,” “Wendi’s a total BOSS,” and “She has the best taste of anyone, ever,” are just a few of the descriptions I got when asking some of our mutual friends about the owner of style mecca Kick Pleat. With a gorgeous new 3,400-square foot […]

The Lipsticks That Beauty Experts Can’t Live Without

They say that nothing makes you feel better than buying a new lipstick, and I’d have to agree: it’s the quickest, most affordable “splurge” that can improve a bad day and make you feel instantly more confident. But it’s equally great to have one go-to lip color in your arsenal that can always be relied upon to […]

The Chic Way to Mix Patterns

ed. note: Trends come and go (seemingly at warp speed these days) and I think there are very few things that always feel chic every season, year after year. What belongs on that list for you? A white button-down, of course, and a cropped leather jacket and nude ballet flats are pretty much always cool. […]

Get Ready for Fall With These 7 Gorgeous Upgrades

On a routine trip to Sephora last September, I impulsively picked up a face mask that listed pumpkin as one of its main ingredients — who knew that the squash infuses your skin with antioxidants and gently exfoliates? I brought it home, opened the jar, and instantly my shower was filled with the most luscious […]

7 Products to Steal from Your Boyfriend

I’ll be honest: while I like to believe that I’m not as high-maintenance as some ladies out there (like my always-immaculately-turned-out mother), the truth remains that I am not a tomboy. I like beauty products, and I like them a lot (hence the career choice!). However, while I’ve always been enamored by the search for […]

15 Best Fall Boots for Every Budget

There’s definitely something in the autumn air that begs for a new pair of boots, but now that I’ve decided to pull the trigger and do some shopping this weekend, I realize I’m faced with a host of options in style, heel height, color, and more. If you’re as indecisive as I am, there’s a good chance you’ve found […]

13 Genius Ways to Dress Like It’s Fall When it’s Still Totally Hot Outside

In Dallas there’s an old urban myth that we love: supposedly the ac bills go up every year in the fall because the ladies are that dedicated to wearing fall fashions as soon as they hit the racks at Neimans. All joking aside, it’s an annual fashion crisis in Texas. The weather in September (and even October) is still […]

These 12 Mascaras Are the Best of the Best

I have a feeling that most women’s “desert island” makeup choice would be mascara. There’s nothing that adds polish and prettiness quite like it, but there are also about a thousand different options (with new ones hitting the market daily) claiming longer, thicker, curlier, fuller, or more natural lashes. How’s a girl to choose? We polled […]

There’s a time and a place for a good beauty splurge, for sure—think your fail-safe foundation that costs more than a few bucks, or a pricey lipstick that makes you feel like Wonder Woman.
