Camille Styles’s coffee-table book, "Entertaining Inspired Gatherings and Effortless Style" encompasses everything it promises and more. An Austin native, Styles brings fashion, food and fun to life in 307 colorful pages filled with vibrant pictures. This coffee table book is split into four parts according to seasons. Each section dives into the sights, sounds and smells of that particular time of year. Styles talks about various social gatherings that ring true to each season, like a fiesta-themed soirée during the hot summer months.

As an Austinite in the Big Apple everything seemed magical, but nothing more magical than the stylish people. Chic black and white looks, florals with stripes, and tennis shoes paired with anything black could be spotted up and down the urban streets. Fashion week only occurs two times a year, making it a short window of opportunity for fashion enthusiasts to express their personal style. Flip through the gallery to see the looks that caught this fashion lover's eye.
