What makes casual cool even cooler? Adding a touch of skate-brand flave. I have to admit: I have always been one who could appreciate a little hint of skater-boy, & what better way to spice up your typical t-shirt & jeans mansemble than with Volcom & Vans? Cheers to this week’s Menswear Monday model, Mr. Cole Willardson. Ya done good son. Madson the Dog wasn’t opposed to jumpin’ in for a little photo opp. Isn’t he photogenic? Shirt: RVCA (via Pac Sun) | Jeans: Volcom (via Tilly’s) | Shoes: Vans (via Vans store) | Glasses: Giorgio Armani Thank You Cole for sharing your sick style chops with us this week! Don’t forget peeps: only three days left to enter this week’s GIVEAWAY. And Boys? This applies to you too. Your girlfriends, the girls you wish were your girlfriends, your wives, mommas, & gal-pals would love you at least 17.5…
Sometimes I talk to myself. So sue me.
Ummm, can we talk about how the way I edited these next couple sets of pics kinda makes it look like I’m talking to myself from across the picture? And by the time I realized how weird/creepyish it was I was way too lazy to change it? And can we decide what Me #1 and Me #2 are saying to each other? cuz I like that game… Me #1: “O.M.G.! We MATCH! And we didn’t even plan that!” Me #2: “You skank – I totally had it all first.” Me #1: “I really have to pee.” Me #2: “I want peanut butter.” Ok that was fun (& by fun i mean dumb). Sweater: F.21 | Jeans: Wet Seal | Boots: Thrifted (brand new DKNY’s! $20!) | Bag: Thrifted | Belt: HM | Necklace: F. 21 | Watch: Nordstrom Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand sometimes THIS happens. WHAT.THE.DEUCE???? Can we all just judge…
Peter Pan called: he wants his collar back.
OK: I have to put this at the top for all you who never read a thing I actually write on this here blog & only come to look at the pictures (i’m not judging you. turns out i’m the exact same way): Guess what’s happening here tomorrow peeps? That’s right: GBO’s very first GIVEAWAY! The chance to win a really sexy little somethin’ somethin’ – something I’ve been coveting for awhile, might I add – is here, tomorrow. So DON’T MISS IT! Now feel free to ignore the rest of my writing & tell me whatchya think of the pictures. So remember that feeble attempt I made at using a part of my outfit to make a title… a real dumb title, turns out? Yeah, I remember that. Maybe someday I’ll get better at this. Maybe. The truth is, I began lusting after anything with a peter pan collar the second the trend hit. And now…
MENSWEAR MONDAY
He picked these out himself… Shirt: Urban Outfitters| Shorts: Targhetto | Sperry’s: Macy’s | Watch: Tag Heur Yep. Husband saw these here plaid shorts and they had to be his. No prodding on my part. I think he even said ‘Hey, I could wear these for a Menswear Monday post!’ This is progress, eh? So what do you think? Are YOU fans of the plaid short look? (p.s…how bout that solar eclipse yesterday?! turns out that’s why these pics looked kinda dark & weird. you can’t tell, but husband’s shirt is actually a pale blue. stuuuupid solar eclipse. or maybe it’s my stuuuuupid sub-par use of photoshop? or my stuuuuuupid below-average photography skills? either way: stuuuuuuuupid.) Aaaaaaaaand sometimes THIS happens. Happy Monday! (uggggg – Monday. womp womp.)
Feelin’ Furry
Does this title creep anyone else out like it does me? Maybe it’s because I associate the word furry with those times when I haven’t shaved my legs in a while, or desperately need to get my eyebrows waxed cuz I’m starting to look like a Neanderthal (i wish both of those happened less frequently.). That & the word fuzzy – that’s a creepy word for me too, cuz that’s when I haven’t brushed my teeth in a while and they feel like a fuzzy sweater. SICK DOUBLE SICK, WOOF TRIPS WOOF. Yeah. I’m gross. You don’t have to tell me cuz I already know. (also my family reminds me of this on a regular basis, to ensure that I don’t forget. They’re real gems.) Blouse: Thrifted| Skirt: F.21| Heels: Thrifted| Faux Fur: removable collar from one of my coats| Belt: TJ Maxx| Sunnies: F.21| Watch: Nordy’s| Bracelets: F.21 So let’s…
