Over here in the Mara Hoffman studio we are constantly adding to our office playlist (suggestions always welcome) and have come up with a list of the most frequently played jams of late that we’re sharing with you. From the beautiful and emotive voice of Misun to our girl Solange‘s hit “Losing You” (this video is ridiculously good), as well as a few electro-pop tracks from Purity Ring‘s latest album, we think we’ve got you covered for the weekend!

Bonus: Spotify users can download the entire playlist!

We loved the beauty look that Maybelline’s lead makeup artist Charlotte Willer created to represent the mystic & misfits theme for our fall 13 show at NYFW. Luckily, they created a great video tutorial on how to get the makeup & nail looks!

I am really excited to share our new project with you…

I am beyond blessed to be surrounded by some pretty extraordinary women. It got me thinking that it was time to share the love and take it to the blog! I am inviting my nearest and dearest lady loves to my studio where they style themselves in MH of their choice, get photographed by me, and then sit down for a one on one chat about what makes them who they are. I hope that they can inspire you the way that they inspire me. Enjoy and stay tuned for some serious LADY LOVE.

With infinite love and light,
Mara
