Nadine Abramcyk

The best pedicure I’ve ever had took place at the new tenoverten that opened in Austin a few weeks ago. Sure the polish was flawlessly applied and the space was gorgeous, but what made it most memorable was sitting next to co-founder Nadine Ambramcyk and bonding over motherhood, a shared love for healthy living, and the joys and challenges […]

My Quest for Perfect Brows

When it comes to beauty, it’s often true that we always want what we weren’t naturally born with, and that would certainly explain my lifelong obsession with full, shapely brows. Back in junior high, when pencil thin brows had a short moment in the sun, all my barely-there brows needed was a quick visit with the […]

Spring Break Getaway Beauty Prep

It’s officially that time of year where I’m feeling so pallid and run-down that I’m practically dying for some sun. So, naturally, I’m dreaming of a more grown-up take on a college spring break trip (with less booze and more sunscreen, of course!). I’ve put together a list of everything needed to stay protected and […]

Bridesmaids Dresses We Would (Seriously) Wear Again

It’s almost become a cliché: the well-intentioned bride promised to choose a dress that you can “definitely” wear again, and a few months later you find yourself hanging yet another strapless pastel number in the back of your closet to collect dust. Thankfully, stylish brides can now make good on their promise with the new collection from Fame […]

7 Ways to Cure Winter Chapped Lips For Good

It’s right about that time of the winter when I start to feel… a bit run down (to put it mildly). Between the lack of sun, lack of humidity, and lack of a meal that doesn’t involve carbs and red wine–hey, a girl’s gotta make it through somehow–by the end of February, my skin has […]

A Morning With Katie Kime

Among the interior design set, and in Austin especially, the name Katie Kime has been popping up a lot lately. So what’s all the buzz about? Maybe it’s her new home decor shop at one of the city’s busiest intersections, or her involvement in some of this town’s hottest parties, or the biggest conversation topic of […]

the secret to “babylights” (and why people are lining up for them)

Have you ever caught yourself having a serious moment of hair envy with a toddler? (Don’t worry, we won’t tell.) But it’s probably because the hair we have when we’re young is naturally lighter, brighter, and more pigmented than the hair we have as adults. There’s a new treatment on the market made to emulate […]

The Most Romantic New Fragrances

I don’t think I’m alone in saying that Valentine’s Day can sometimes be anything but romantic. In my mind, a holiday that centers completely around men meeting impossibly high standards for romance in the middle of dreary February is just kind of unfair. However, even though most of us enlightened ladies know that Valentine’s Day […]

The Celtic Knot

We wanted to create an ambitious and romantic hairstyle for Valentine’s Day this year, and Erica Rae did not let us down with this incredible half-up look. As senior stylist at Roar Salon in Austin, Erica was able to dissect this complicated knot in no time. “It took me a couple of tries,” she laughs, […]
