Bow Ties. AKA, The Bee’s Knees. I think any and every boy would do well to own at least ONE of these things and hold the confidence to work it into his regular sartorial repertoire. Husband was a bit skeptical at first, but they have grown on him – like a planter’s wart on an unfortunate, preyed-upon finger. Aaaaand I wish I could have come up with a slightly less revolting comparison than that. But you know what’s NOT revolting, like, at all? Bow Ties. Guys, if you think you can’t pull them off, I can almost guarantee you that all you’re lacking is the confidence. Bow ties are for any man – of any height, any weight, any hair color, any face shape, any anything! The secret is simply owning it. Strut that thing around like a Peacock in mating season (that’s when their feathers are the prettiest. trust me…
An Apology
Dear, lovely Readers… Forgive the heavy content today, but there is something important that I need to say to all of you: If I have ever written anything on this blog that has been offensive, disrespectful, insensitive or inappropriate in any way, I. AM. SO. SORRY. Really guys – I am. It has come to my attention that this rogue mouth of mine has delivered unsavory feelings to some of my readers at times. Not only does that make my heart hurt because of how it has made YOU feel; it also pains me because nothing could be further from the true intention of this blog and the feelings I wish for it to evoke. For all of my imprudent banter and inane popping-off, it scarcely occurs to me that this could fall on the side of reckless, demeaning, and disrespectful. And my negligence of that fact is nothing short…

Summer Sandals
On Saturday, husband and I went to the Zoo with some friends. The ZOO peeps. I can’t even remember the last time I graced the zoo with my presence (cuz that’s really how the zoo feels when I show up – like it’s being graced. Orrrrrrrr dis-graced? Maybs? Orrrrrrrr…?). Naturally I HAD to wear my sweater with tigers on it. It seemed only appropriate. No? Additionally, I have to say how pleased I was with how well my hat fit in. Peeps were wearing hats all over the place! As well as fanny packs. If only I’d worn my fanny pack. How could I have forgotten my fanny pack? No, I honestly really hate it when I forget to wear my fanny pack. It’s like completely unacceptable mixed with inexcusable mixed with deplorable mixed with stupid. Kind of like this post today. One last thing: these sandals were so nice…
Prints and Statement Necklaces
These are two of my favorite trends right now. Prints and statement necklaces make me wet myself. Do you feel the same way? About prints and statement necklaces?
