Matchbox Magazine: Field Guide to a Charmed Life

"From lipstick to letterpress, gelato to grosgrain, and Paris to Peru, consider us your field guide to a charmed life."


I've just recently discovered this little quaint online magazine and turns out, they actually released their first issue in January of this year! Matchbook isn't just an ordinary fashion magazine, it also emphasizes on art, beauty, interior, culture, and even travel. However, the magazine is for more of a sophisticated, charming, and classic type of gal. Think Kate Spade with a mix of style icons like Audrey Hepburn and Twiggy. Even if this isn't anywhere near your style, I don't think it should stop you from at least taking a peek inside this cute magazine!

The matchbook girl:
"...views the world through rose colored glasses, loves to throw dinner parties, but has been known to burn the roast, values eccentricity over convention, is the first to laugh at her own bad jokes, knows the cha-cha, the charleston, and the tango, paints her nails bright coral when she's feeling blue, is infinitely curious, could happily live off of red velvet cake, pens hand written notes to her grandmother, has a signature shade of lipstick, secretly thinks she may be babe paley reincarnated, received an iPAD for her birthday, but will never give up her library card, has a bucket list a mile long and dreams a dime a dozen, is smart, but never a show-off, listens to the day's forecast, but trusts her own intuition, never says no to a sunday matinee at the theater, is quick to blush, but never short of a witty reply, has a skip in her step and a twinkle in her eye, always shares her last piece of gum."

(How cute is a matchbook girl?!)
