Ok lady friends – Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. Whatchya gettin’ for that man friend of yours? Here are some ideas! Shameless plug: that sexy as death leather satchel in the pic above is from the company of a friend of mine, Kodiak Leather (check it out!). We got it in the mail this week, and you guys – it is even more beautiful in person than it is in pics. It’s also the perfect size (as per my husband). It’s also on sale for $99 (originally $150). My husband has a couple other leather satchel work bags, and $99 (or even $150) is honestly is a craaaaay price for a genuine leather bag (the others Chase has retailed for over $400. Yikes). And in my humble opinion, every grown man needs a sexy, high quality work bag. If your man doesn’t have one yet, it’s time. Get him one! Get him this one! (or this one or this one, all on sale). Ok I’ll shut it now.

Hey guys – happy Monday! Was it just me, or was last week somehow one of the longest ever (even though Monday was a holiday? Jigga what?), followed by the most ridiculously short weekend of all time? Woof – so it goes I guess. Just a little round up today of some sexy suit coat and shirt combos for you. Husband is doing lots of presenting for this new job of his and it’s always in a suit, so we’ve had dead-sexy-I’m-a-bad-A-you-should-listen-to-me suit/shirt/tie combos on the brain. Here’s some inspiration for all of us! These are all from trusty Pinterest (specifically my ‘Dear Husband, Please Wear This’ board). Follow along with me for more where this came from! Have a Masterpiece Mystery Monday! Thanks for reading. (Speaking of Masterpiece Mystery… husband and I officially have a new show. Have any of you heard of Grantchester? If you’re a Downton Abbey fan you…
Oh hey V-day…
Remember how Love’s holiday is just around the river bend? If you haven’t given much thought yet to what you’re going to get for your man, allow me to grant you a little inspiration!

Ends 1/19 | Use code: DEALS Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! Husband and I saw the movie Selma a couple weekends ago. Have you seen it? So good you guys. To be honest I’m not one who can usually stomach those types of films. The movie ’12 Years a Slave’ for example? Not a chance. For some reason we decided to gird up our loins and see this one, and I’m so glad we did. It was super intense and painful to watch, but it succeeded in teaching me more about the Civil Rights efforts of that time and heightening my respect and gratitude for it all. What bravery MLK and everyone who participated in his movement had. I was blown away…
