Road Trip Outfit

5 long days on the road and I can tell you now that I lived in the same thing all 5 days.  Leggings, tanks, sweaters, possible scarves, "driving socks", flip flops, and a big ol' purse.  If the internet was my closet this would have been my outfit all 5 days.

4. sm luxe catch gladiator sandals (similar here)

We Made It!

We finally made it.  Left NY 12 days ago and have now arrived in San Francisco.  5 long days on the road, 6 great days hanging with friends and family all over the country and one day with no internet service.  So much fun seeing everyone and catching up with them and I could not be more excited to see what San Francisco has to offer but more than anything... I'm just happy to be out of that car.

So Long, Farewell

Sorry I haven't been posting clearly as much as I should but things have been crazy as I've said before but I vow to push through and do a little better from here on out.  How's that sound? Good.  So part of the craziness has been saying goodbye to my beloved job.  It's been fun, it's been crazy, it's been real.

Now I guess it's time to pack, buy a car, and drive out to San Francisco. You know, the usual.

beauty-licious

As a girl I have tried just about every beauty/make-up product in the western hemisphere. Luckily I think in my 23 years on life I have narrowed it down to these basics.  Of course I have an unhealthy collection of MAC eyeshadow to play with but what girl doesn't?

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup, Chanel Powder, Benefit Hoola Bronzer, Sonia Kashuk Creme Blush, Clinique Colour Surge Eye Shadow, Diors Waterproof Liner, Nars Eyelash Curler, CoverGirl LashBlast Mascara, Kiehl's Lip Balm in Cranberry, SEPHORA Antibacterial brush set

Weddings...

So excited for the wedding tonight.  Its going to be just wonderful plus I get to break out my brand new Tibi dress.  Thanks you Bloomingdales for having a sale! Now I just have to figure out the shoes, bag, jewelry, hair, and makeup.... so much work to get purrrtty for a weeding.

Flying in Style...

I believe airport style to be incredibly important.  You are making an entrance to a new city, state, or country and those people need to know that you mean business.  My flying style is a mixture of edge and comfort. You will almost always see me in jeans of some sort and a slouchy shirt.  A scarf is a must for anybody flying and I never wear heels to the airport, can't run in those suckers (I always run late). 

1. Current/Elliot skinny jean

2. Acne top 

3. Alexander McQueen black folk medium tote

4. Pleated infinity scarf

5. Sambag plain leather ballet flats

Currently Craving...

  Ben-Amun.  Gooorgeous Dahling. 

Gorgeous. 

Nail Polish Addict

My name is Malin, and I am a nail polish addict.  Yes, it's true.  I have an unhealthy obsession with nail polish and second a nail chips, I take it all off and paint again.  I think I can contribute that to my self-diagnosed OCD.  My latest polish color of choice: Trophy Wife by ESSIE.  I can just hear my mother saying under her breath, "how appropriate." I wasn't sure I was going to like it in the bottle but I can say that after having it on my nails, I LOVE IT!!

I think my hand needs to go on a diet, Holy chubby fingers.

Blonde vs. Brunette

My life long struggle, blonde hair or brunette hair? I am a natural blonde... super swedish blonde.  I have a sever case of ADD when it comes to my hair color and hair cuts.  I am currently trying to grow my hair out  after cutting 6 inches off a couple months back.  I am now sporting new brunette locks because I was every shade of blonde for two years.

Which color should I rock next?

Why hello there

This is my style brew. What is a style brew you ask? It is a mixture of all my thoughts and inspirations that lead to my definition of style.  Everything has their own opinion of style and this shall be mine.  The name is quite simple, love of fashion leads to style and a love of a good beer (Hoegaarden if you're wondering) leads to the obvious brew.  Need proof? Fine, here's your proof.

Yummmmm.
