Claire Marie, of Mamushka Marie, is a fairly new blogging friend. I can't quite remember who found who first, but I can remember how drawn I was to Claire Marie's style. I totally envy how cool she looks in vintage specs, her amazing dark hair and her awesome wardrobe.
Thanks so much Claire Marie for being my eleventh Blogger of the Week!

I'm 26 years old and am currently a California transplant in Dallas Texas, however in two short weeks my guy and I will be heading north to Madison Wisconsin. We're both pretty nomadic to say the least!

What inspired you to start blogging?
All those beautiful artistic creative bloggers out there, for sure. I would sit up in my apartment and just wish I could will myself to do something like I saw on the screen in front of me. So I started Mamushka Marie. Initially I felt really lost and didn't have a clue where to begin! I posted a few things, got bored and felt like giving up completely. Then I found wardrobe remix on flickr and began posting outfits, which was totally nerve wracking for me at first, but after a while I began to let loose, made some great connections and friendships and it naturally progressed into my giving it another go with the whole blogging thing. Other bloggers are also what inspire me to keep blogging.

What's one tip you’d like to share with other bloggers?
Write (post) what you know...in other words, be yourself. It sounds totally cliche and cheesy but it's true! I think blogging is an art form, sure not everyone will be into the same stuff, but like good art, good blogging has meaning and comes from the heart...

What’s your favorite song of the moment?
I've been listening to a lot of Nick Drake recently, I grew up listening to him actually- my dad is a huge fan...his music is so haunting and beautiful to me, my favorite song is "Time has told me."

What are you most looking forward to wearing this winter?
Layers, layers, layers, and a wool cape coat if I can get my hands on one.
