6 Yoga Poses for Relieving Stress

Given the amount of time we spend sharing fitness tips around the office and going to workout classes as a team, it’s a wonder it’s taken us this long to dedicate a regular series to staying fit. Whether you’re a mindful yogi, a die-hard Crossfitter, or finding yourself out of the workout game altogether and in need […]

Jen & Ralph

Dog lovers rejoice! We’re kicking the week off with a heartwarming third installment of our new Fox & Hound series. Today’s subject: none other than Jen Coleman, 1/2 of the duo behind Ascot+Hart and famously, the @targetdoesitagain Instagram account. When Jen’s not curating collections for her online shop or styling inspired outfits, you can find this Texan […]

Caramelized

Today’s Entertaining With feature has us flush with emotion. As a Camille Styles intern, Cara Greenstein rocked our worlds with her love of everything food, and her knack for whipping up culinary creations in a flash. Fast forward just a few short years, and our little grasshopper has moved back to her hometown of Memphis, where […]

Miami Beach

After weeks of agonizing over where to travel over the long Labor Day weekend (woe is me!), we finally came to a decision: Miami Beach, baby. Seriously, what’s not to love about this place? With endless beaches, fresh seafood at every corner, and art and shopping galore, just a few visits have landed this city at […]

Kelly & Samson + Ellie

Up next in our Fox & Hound series is Kelly DeWitt. You likely know her as the mastermind woodworker behind KKDW, or the genius behind this fun summer DIY, but to Ellie and Samson, she’s just Mom. Keep reading for a glimpse into Kelly’s life with her two hilarious fur babies… Your name: Kelly DeWitt, owner […]

Is Riesling the New Rosé?

Move over Rosé, there’s a new summer wine on the scene. It’s a bold claim, we know, but ever since our recent Riesling tasting a few weeks ago, every member of our team is a total convert. Sure, it could have been the picturesque scene at Jeffrey’s that had us feeling fuzzy, or the guidance of […]

Avocado Carpaccio

Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to my new favorite summer dish… and if you’re a lover of refreshing, amazing seasonal produce, I get the feeling it’s going to be yours too. Inspired by a dish served at one of my most beloved neighborhood Mexican joints, this avocado carpaccio, in its essence, is really just a […]

Noir et Blanc

I’ve been feeling a bit short on inspiration lately. It’s nothing to be alarmed about — this kind of thing happens when you’re constantly inundated with the latest in fashion, interiors, entertaining and food — but I’ve noticed that when this kind of burnout sets in, I find myself going back to basics. And who knows […]

Are You a Cryer?

I’m Chanel, and I’m a crybaby. I know what you’re thinking — I haven’t heard that word used since elementary school — but there’s no other way to describe it. I’m moved to tears over the news, movies, songs, commercials, on my yoga mat, at graduations, weddings, births, deaths, you name it… I’m the girl sniffling obnoxiously in your ear […]

A Small-Space Entryway Makeover

I live in a loft, meaning that my apartment consists of — count ’em — one room total. The kitchen transitions into the dining area, which turns into the living area, which then becomes the bedroom… and while I absolutely love the wide openness of it all,  living without established hallways, doorways and foyers has been quite […]

Kate & Winnie

Confession: We’re a bit dog-crazy around the office. Even though I’m the only dog owner among us, that doesn’t keep everyone from spending half the work day talking about breeds we love, sharing must-follow dog Instagram accounts (have you met Piggy & Polly?), and googling puppy photos. So in an effort to open up the conversation to you guys, […]

Tomato, Nectarine and Mozzarella Salad

This salad, you guys. There’s a lot I could say about it, but it comes down to this: for a gorgeous, simple, couldn’t-be-more-refreshing summer dish, look no further. It’s no surprise that tomato, nectarines and basil all complement each other so well — they can all be grown in your own backyard this time of […]

7 Tips for Styling a Summer Bar Cart

By Texas standards, it’s still the good kind of summer. If you live in the South, you know what we mean: temps aren’t in the triple-digits yet, ice cream and popsicles can still hold their own after a few minutes outside, and ice in our cocktails isn’t yet futile. With the season in full swing (and the […]
