Welcome to The Style Co-Op! We’re all about capturing the crazy cool and distinct personal style of our fellow Austinites. We’re in love with the culture that abounds in this city and so happy to be here. We’d love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for stopping by!
Meet Amy.
Hello! I’m a writer, photographer, and a reading specialist and I love being all three. I write young adult fiction because I somehow relate to those awkward adolescent years that we all wanted to get away from as quickly as possible. You can read my thoughts on writing, fashion, culture and everything else that distracts me on my blog, pixiespace. I know it sounds a little froofy, but I started it eight years ago, when I was a much froofier person. Speaking of eight years ago, that’s when my husband and I moved to Austin, and we love it so much that we fully intend to stay.
Meet Sandhya.
I’m one of the proud few that can claim Austin as my hometown. Hands down, the best city in the world. And I am so excited to be capturing Austin’s unique style with Amy. As for my real job, I’m a dog trainer and couldn’t love my job more. If you need help with your furbabies, I’m your woman. I spend the rest of my time eating copious amounts of chocolate and peanut butter, shopping for treasures, tinkering with my personal blog (livin wide) and hanging out with the loves of my life: my furbabies and my husband. Nice to meet y’all!

I am a writer for CultureMap Austin, and I’m doing a monthly series this year which highlights the top Austin area bloggers. Each month it’s a different category; I’ve done music, love/relationships, and food bloggers so far. This month I am doing style and beauty bloggers.
If you want to read one of the blogger stories I did, to get a sense for what they are, here it is: http://austin.culturemap.com/newsdetail/02-10-12-13-53-looking-for-love-in-all-the-wrong-places-meet-austins-top-datingrelationship-bloggers/
So – would you like to be part of the Style/Beauty Bloggers round up story? If you do, I would love it if you could answer some questions for me! Let me know…

Hi Brian,
Could you tell us which one of us took your picture? I don’t believe it was me but I can reach out to my partner Amy and ask about it if you think it was her. Otherwise, perhaps it was a different blog? We are the only two contributors to this blog and our pictures are above.
Thanks!
Sandhya

I think it was Amy. She looks familiar! I’m sure it’s this Blog because I was given your business card.
Love, Brian
