Welcome!

Years and years ago, we (Stephanie and Nicole) collaborated on a lifestyle blog, before we realized that lifestyle blogs were even lifestyle blogs. We called it "Cinco Style" and it was an assortment of photos, recipes, projects, and favorites. This was pre-Pinterest, pre-Instagram, if you can even remember that far back! In time, our professional … Continue reading Welcome!

Groovy Baby

Mushrooms. Daisies. Swirls. Mod. Pops of color. What decade do these make you think of? Our city's art museum hosts an annual fundraiser that helps restore pieces of art in its permanent collection. They ask a handful of creatives to create a 'living tableau' for guests to interact with, and take some fun photos. We … Continue reading Groovy Baby

Pumpkin Patch

Regardless of weather or season, pumpkin bread and muffins are an annual staple in the household. A personal favorite recipe (see above photo, via King Arthur Flour) combines pumpkin with whole wheat flour, bananas, and a coarse sugar coating. And of course, adding chocolate chips for extra delight. But what happens when you flip through … Continue reading Pumpkin Patch

Polished to Perfection

We are mirror image twins. That means one of us is left handed, the other right handed. Our hair parts on opposite sides. In high school, one was the cheerleader, the other the artsy girl who hid in her room reading VC Andrews. Our tastes in decor are opposite: cozy British chic to more is … Continue reading Polished to Perfection

Marching to the Beat…

When I first read Little Women a few years ago, I'll admit, I thought it was duller than dull. Perhaps it was because I had been spending the past few years immersed in new motherhood, and tales of domestic bliss bored me. Or maybe it was because we never read it as children, that I … Continue reading Marching to the Beat…
