Statement Pieces: Feather Detail

photos by Halle Kennon Photo

WE DID IT AGAIN! We showed up to shoot and when we went to get changed, we came out of the bathroom stalls to see that we were both rocking feather accent pieces. I was wearing a pair of dark green jeans with button & feather hem detail and Cath had the cooooolest piece on. We couldn’t help but laugh at ourselves, again. It has really just become expected at this point for us to be matching, twinning or coordinating in some sort of way – but with our own personal style twists. This weekend was no exception!

TCP Tips: How To Stay Sane in 2020

Some tips that we are using to keep our mind and body right as we enter the new year! Some are probably new to you and some are pretty obvious, but you never know when you might need a reminder xx

EDIT:
we wrote this at the beginning of 2020 and little did we know how much we would REALLY need these tips this year.

1.Listen to Kelly Howell’s The Secret Universal Mind Meditation
Catherine wrote a pretty great blog post over on Cathclaire a while back on why you should listen to this life changing sleep meditation, but here I am to remind you that IT WORKS. Like she said, I can always tell the difference when I fall asleep listening to Kelly for days on end and when I don’t. The brain sync technology actually works and if you are like me and are pretty worthless at meditation : this is for you. All you have to do is listen, and seriously, you can simply fall asleep! I bought it on iTunes so I could have access to it anywhere and everywhere, but it’s also available for free on YouTube. Do yourself a favor and listen tonight as you fall asleep.

2. Keep an organized calendar
If you are as busy as we are, juggling multiple jobs, events, friends and family this is an absolute must. Personally, I have a Google calendar where EVERYTHING lives: a synced calendar with Johnny, a TCP calendar, daily and weekly reminders and I create an event for everything so I don’t forget. If you prefer a fancy app, or like to keep a hard copy planner with you, then do that! If you keep your schedule organized, I have found that great piece of mind comes with it.

Twinning In: Black Gucci tights

You guys already know that we are no strangers to twinning. Over the years, from trips to fashion week and simply walking the streets of RVA, we have been known to do a little twinning. { You can even find us twinning over on Google Local Guides. } This is definitely not the first time we have shown up to a shoot, totally twinning, totally unplanned. Very fitting in this instance that we’d both be wearing the black Gucci tights.

How good is the holiday decor at the Quirk Hotel in Richmond?

Comfortiva ShoesThe name says it all. These are truly the most comfortable shoes we own, now! Comfortiva is dedicated to making shoes that are not only stylish and good looking, but also truly comfortable. They have a variety of styles of boots, booties, wedges and sandals – something for everyone. Catherine chose the Cantara in Caramel and I love how she styled them with the all black look! I think I can speak for her when I say that this far into her pregnancy, all she really wants is comfort and these shoes bring it!

Cute & Cozy Little Black Dresses for Winter

Photos By Halle, Wild Heart Creative 

I have been on a huge sweatsuit (particularly Abercrombie sweat pants and sweatshirt) kick lately, which you know if you follow me on instagram.  This winter I am ALL about comfort, but unfortunately my all black & all grey sweatsuits are not appropriate attire for all occasions, lol. SO, when I was browsing ASOS, looking for some new pieces to wear around the holidays, I wanted something that was appropriate to wear from girls nights at Quirk to cold weekends that was also comfortable. I knew immediately when I saw this mini smock black dress that it was the perfect piece.

It has pockets, is the perfect mini length that isn’t toooo short, but shows some leg and did I mention, comfortable? Oh, and it’s under $50! So, if you are looking to be cozy this holiday season, but still dress the part in an LBD, I have rounded up some more great black dress options for you guys! You don’t have to sacrifice comfort for style.

 



Best of 2019 on The Crystal Press

oh, 2019.

You were quite eventful! I think it is safe to say that 2019 was a year that we will never forget. Aside from Catherine being pregnant (which of course is absolutely life changing), we grew a lot as a duo! We worked with some great brands, found some great pieces to add to our wardrobes, read a lot, and wrote a lot.

We hope that you have learned a little something from us on here this year and that we have inspired you to live your very best life. We hope you have learned to love quality over quantity, and appreciate the power of manifestation and positivity. Drop a comment and let us know how you’ve learned from us this year – we always love to hear it 🙂

We have some lofty goals and exciting things planned for 2020, and we can’t wait to share it all with you. Make sure you subscribe to our email list so you don’t miss ANYTHING!

For now, here are a few of our favorite photos from this year! Shout out to Kaytee, Kenzi & Halle for capturing these moments <3
