Emily Rosendahl Clutch

Myself and this clutch have had a long love affair. It started last year when I saw a picture on Pinterest. The first thing I did was e-mail the picture to my friends and family and commissioned them to find me a hide. I knew if I could get my hands on one I could try and re-create it. Not long after this, one of my favorite blogs, Could I Have That, posted an outfit shot of her holding the exact clutch I originally saw on Pinterest. I immediately e-mailed to ask who it was by. She responded that it was an Emily Rosendahl creation. I e-mailed her right away but after I hit send my friend called to tell me that he proudly had a hide for me. It still needed to be “prepared” so I wouldn’t have it for a while but since the hide was cheaper than the clutch I decided to stick with trying to re-create it. It has been a year and my hide is just now finished but last week I decided I couldn’t wait any longer and just bought E.R.’s clutch. I have never worked so hard for a bag in my life but it was well worth the wait.
I can’t say enough about this clutch. It is even better in person than in pictures, if that is possible. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase as I now have my clutch and my hide, which will be decor for my new office. All’s well that ends well.

Inspiring People Wanted

I know you are probably looking at this picture and thinking, “what the… isn’t this a fashion blog?” To that, yes it is, and it always will be but I am also a 25 year old trying to figure out life. Yes, life. I know you are rolling your eyes right now thinking, “Oh no, not this kind of post. Someone else ‘trying’ to figure out life–uhg.” Now, hold your horses, this isn’t that kind of post–just keep reading.
My favorite part about fashion and blogging is that they allow you to be inspired. When featured on various blogs I’m often asked, “where do you get your inspiration from?”  and my answer is always the same; every day people. I find that every day people, whether it’s through their clothes, actions, or artistry, provide an incredible amount of inspiration.
Now, back to being 25. Sometimes it is so hard to know what it is you are suppose to be doing, want to be doing, and should be doing. That little voice inside will tell you what you love but reality makes it seem impossible to grasp. Everyone always tells you to, “chase your dreams and don’t stop until you reach them.” I love hearing this but sometimes I find it overwhelming. Because of this, I felt compelled to start the series, M.A.S. Interview’s. This will be a feature of someone I find inspiring and think you should know. Every person I have lined up has listened to that little voice inside and followed their passions and dreams. I hope you enjoy this new addition and get inspired along the way.

MAS BEAUTY ROUTINE

I used to be a total make-up junkie. I would buy products, try them out, and mix and match. If I didn’t love the combo, to my sister they went. As I get older I know I need more creams and a little bit more coverage than I did when I was 18. After testing out many different combinations I have finally found one I love and wanted to share with all.  Descriptions on products and links on where to buy below.

If you could only buy three items out of the 20 here are my top must haves: 
#8- The powder and the brush really do give me the best and most flawless coverage you could ever ask for. You get a full coverage without looking cakey and overdone. 
 #12- I get asked every time I wear this what it is. I take the feather brush and lightly dust it on the top of my cheek for a dewy and youthful look. 
#13- I preach to all my friends how important eyebrows are. They literally change your face shape and make you look put together and complete. Anastasia is like the Ferrari of eyebrow fills. A must invest kind of product. It even comes with a tracer for all you beginners.
