austin daze + books to adore

The longer I am in Austin, the more I remember the Texas weather moods. Haze filled mornings and an easy breeze fills my days here at home. Sipping my favorite coffee and catching up on some of my new decor books has been such a nice indulgence for me. The best part? Gazing at this incredibly beautiful bouquet of my favorite flowers from a very dear friend. Domestic Bliss at its finest.
Books I am loving now...

Style-icous Sunday {bohemian luxe}


The warm and lovely essence I feel when I am in Austin, my hometown, is intoxicating! catching the chic boho luxe look around this town just makes me know I'm home... so very similar to LA, too. Flowy fabrics and exotic prints fill the city as well as an abundance of earthy elements flattered by insence and fresh air. If it wasn't so cold here I'd be wearing a lovely long and flowy caftan and big sunnies as I shop my favorite spots today. Post-Holiday shopping is always madness, but I love being out on the town, having brunch at the very chic Austin hotspots and shopping down on so-co. 
Hope you all enjoyed your Christmas!

now I'm off to Austin, Texas...

My short and super sweet time in Dallas has been so lovely but now I am off to my home city, Austin.
I love Austin, it's a beautiful town, reminds me a little bit of Los Angeles (I am missing LA like crazy). The thing I love about austin & la is the gorgeous greenery throughout the city...
oh and the fantastic views to boot.

This is one reason I love LA, the beautiful modern design + gorgeous view.
However, I won't be missing out too much. Austin has gorgeous views of its own. Take for example this fabulously modern lake house designed by Kasey McCartey.
The wood walls are majorly hip,  and the views are obviously killer.

This post is a shout out to my hometown, Austin, Tx. I love you Austin!
Photographer Dave Mead resides here in this vintage, country, and retro adorable home with his gorgeous wife and son. The best way to describe his style...ECLECTIC.
I am blown away by the uber cool style, quirky + artistic pieces of art and how that much wood isn't making me want to vomit.
It's very similar to 'Loz Feliz chic' here in Los Angeles, I can totally dig it.
