We’re inspired every day by Austin’s gorgeous landscape, the people who make up this city, the events, the restaurants, and so much more.  They all reflect unique styles and tastes that comprise the city and keep it weird. Austin is uniquely its own, and it’s tough to put a finger on what’s trending because individual style — whether it’s for home, self, kids, or whathaveyou — is all so beautiful and warmly welcomed.  From what’s new and now in home interior styles to which baby classes everyone’s trying to get a spot in, we’re taking a look at what’s Trending In Austin and where to find it.

As always, feel free to chime in on the comments for what’s fresh, new, and cant’-live-without for you and your family right now in ATX.

Home Stuff
We’re loving local art, bold wallpaper, and rich furniture colors.  Here’s where you can track home interior trends locally:

  • Austin’s Couch Potatoes | National and local goods in three showrooms.  
  • Barton Springs Nursery | Swoon over their vast plant selection and meet their tortoise.  *Newly revamped and so worth a visit.
  • Hearth and Soul | Gift shop and boutique downstairs, furniture upstairs.  On the pricy side, but so cute. 
  • Show and Tell Vintage and Art | A showroom on S. Lamar where you can soak in art, vintage, interiors, and fashion
  • The Renner Project | 5,000 square foot store and studio with finished rooms featuring mid-century furnishings and art
  • Wildflower Organics | Bedding for baby, accessories for home and kitchen, luxe mattresses and so much more

Local Art
There are tons of local pop-ups and markets featuring local makers and you can always find them featured on our calendar here.  Also check out:

  • Art for the People Gallery | Shop in-store or online.  They also have exhibitions!  
  • Austin Art Garage | Local and attainable art 
  • The Cathedral | Boutique Art Gallery, events space, and co-working space
  • Wally Workman Gallery | Have some oysters at Clark’s and walk to Wally’s next door to take in (or purchase) artwork.  Wally Workman’s carries fine art and the price reflects it. 

East Coast Cuisine with a Texas Twist: Garbo’s Lobster Roll

Dining and Drinks
Austin has new restaurants and food trucks popping up regularly.  Have you been to the new Churro Co?  How about Garbo’s newest restaurant on Lamar?  We’re also loving Sunday School, a wine education class for grown-ups at Neighborhood Vitner, which we recommended for your Parent’s Night Out before school lets out for summer!  Also, check out:

Good Company via Yelp

Shopping
What’s in for girls, boys, teens, and babies?  We know you’ve “gotta” have a pair of all-white tennies for the whole family and we hear “NO CREASES” on the sneaks from the teens!  For mamas, we recommend Valentine’s, and Good Company to shop locally.
