Matchbook: Field Guide to a Charmed Life.

I have been a dedicated reader of the blogs The Neo-traditionalist, Lox Papers, and A Lovely Being for ages now. So imagine my excitement when I read on Katie's blog a few months ago that she, along with Jane and Fallon, would be launching a monthly online publication in January 2011 called Matchbook Magazine.

Matchbook is all about the sweet things in life. The first edition hasn't even launched yet, but I just know it will be oozing with that classic charm these ladies love so much and do so well. As the Matchbook team says,"from lipstick to letterpress, gelato to grosgrain, and Paris to Peru, consider us your field guide to a charmed life." Look at what else they love:


Red ballet flats with tights.


The Kennedys (and stripes).



Vintage cars...


and typewriters...


and books...


and shops...


and of course, vintage matchbooks.

So join me in not-so-patienty awaiting the launch of Matchbook Magazine.

To hold you over until their January launch, be sure to check out their facebook page (with the sweetest quotes updated daily) and their tumblr where you can find more of their favorite things.
