As wild as it is to admit/say, my site is read by mostly men… I get a lottttt of emails from guys inquiring about my view on men’s fashions. I’ve gotten a few lately asking what trends I like the best for Winter as well as for “business casual” attire. I really think guys have it easy, as you can toss on a pair of nice fitted jeans and a button up and look fab, but for those of you who need a bit of extra help on basic men’s fashions I like at the moment, whether it be for work or just the changing seasons, here you go

2 Comments1. Cardigan sweater with a button up or plain T shirt underneath, paired with dressy denim.2. Casual blazer, plain cotton T, dressy denim. For blazer color stick to basics, nothing loud. Black, tan, navy, grey, cream, olive, brown… Dressier can keep it buttoned, I prefer it unbuttoned though.3. Leather jackets. Love! Always have, always will. Such a great staple piece every guy should have. -

4 CommentsOk, so you met the cutest new guy or girl, you’re dyingggg to hangout so you shoot them a text. Great. Fine. Perfect, way to be aggressive. Ok but woops…. they don’t reply? Well bad news for you that’s not a good start. I know, I know there are a million things that could have prevented a reply. They did mention white water rafting when you met, maybe they’re out of town with no service? Your phone hassss been acting funny, maybe it didn’t send? Maybe they’re working? So yea, there are a few random .0002% chances that they never got your text, that is why I will grant you a second text. BUT after that, you are NEVER to contact them again unless they reply.
However with this second text, there are rules. Serious rules. And I said TWO texts total, not NINE.
FIRST and foremost your second text may NEVER say “Oh okkkk or not” “Okkkk fine don’t reply” “I guess you don’t like me
” Hello? Um I’m pretty sure they know they didn’t reply to you, no need to re bring it up like you noticed. Way to act totally desperate.SECOND your follow up text should be DAYS later, not an hour later like you have nothing better to do than to worry about whether or not he replied.
THIRD The second text should have NOTHING to do with your first text. If your first text said “hey whats upppp.” Then the most your second text can say is “Hey, were going out later if you want to come let me know.” The second text should just be a poke reminder like Hi, I’m here. If he bites great if not, delete. He’s not interested .
FOURTH (Most important) After you contact someone twice, whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, Text, Email, Calling whatever… if they do not reply after two tries, that’s IT. Never contact them again. I don’t care who it is unless they owe you money
FIFTH When you are ignored, you are not allowed to reply ANGRY texts! Forget you, forget it. Oh ok I see how it is. Whatever you’re not hot anyway… all I am reading is “I was rejected and I am mad!” Save face and just be quiet.
Example of just one of the psycho texters: Hsdkflfdjkahaha are you kidding?
PS LOL doesn’t trick me into thinking you’re laughing and don’t care.
Exception to the Triple Texting law: The ONLY exception to this rule is if it’s a friend or someone you don’t care what they think. This post is in regards to dating and new phone numbers in your phone, not really anything else. Courting someone does not mean chasing until you’re out of breath.
Disclaimer: Disregard these rules if you are an asshole ex boyfriend who messed up, call a million times until she forgives you. Actually you should be at her door crying with flowers not calling anyway.

1 CommentTrusting Your Gut
Posted in: Boysss, Dating Do's & Don'ts, Rants
I know I man bash a lot, thanks for still reading
But geez, most guys my age are such disasters it’s hard to understand. Writing helps me vent and put things into perspective. Also hearing all these stories teaches me what I would and wouldn’t ever settle for. I see how broken some of my friends get from these guys and I can’t help but become upset. Are you guys ready for my latest story? Because this one takes the cake. Point of this story is, damn it if you feel something is wrong, like really wrong with the person you are dating, something IS wrong. I promise you.This entire story left me sick and if I could prevent it from happening to someone else, then it’s worth telling. One of my very best friends was dating a guy for almost a year. Things started off amazingggg. No red flags, super fun dates, just two people getting to know one another having a blast. Best friends. He would tell her she was the one, talk about marriage, kids, and a life together forever. They had a few small problems but overall were madly in love.
Slowly things started to change. Her boyfriend became more and more distant as time went on but always reassured her things were fine he just needed alone time. It left my friend wondering what was really going on. Was he cheating, was he doing weird things, or did he simply want alone time and nothing was wrong? She trusted nothing was seriously going on and put it aside, however her gut told her something major was going on. I always told her there is noooo way he’s cheating on you, if anything he’s probably just scared to commit. Boy was I wrong.

4 CommentsI’ve huffed and puffed about this topic before, and to be honest, I don’t know why I even bother readdressing it, men will always be perverts, but what I don’t understand is why anyone thinks perverted messages are acceptable to send online?In the past week I have received a handful of sick, sick, scary, sick messages. Jaw dropping, vulgar, nasty messages. You guys need to get a grip on your Facebook advances.
So many guys use Facebook and other social sites to date off of, and fine do what you want, but sending gross/weird messages is absolutely pointless. I show my friends, we laugh and then I block you. Do you do it for shock value? Spaghetti theory? Some skank will bite? I don’t get the point.
With that being said, I figured I’d send you creeps some helpful info on how what NOT to do online.
1. Do not send me generic, bragging messages. So you’re rich, wanna spoil me, take me shopping, fly me all over etc. bla bla gag. You don’t think that’s weird? You just wanna fly a stranger all over the world? Just walk around the mall taking sugar baby shopping? Desperattttttte. And ya, I bet I’m the first girl you ever sent that message to right? Creepy, wait no terrifying and most def. not genuine. Plus no one likes a bragger. So you’re rich? Ya, rich and scary.
2. Fix your weirdo pics. Pictures from 1980 when you were hot, dirty bathroom pics, blurry pics, pictures cropped weird, those tiny pics people post bc they don’t know how to properly upload (Either you’re not smart or just way too old), pictures with piles of junk in the background, overly photoshopped pics, pics with a different random girl in every pic, we know your type “Hey can I get a pic for my friend back home, he’d never believe I’m here!!” yeah yeah. It’s 2010 and you’re lurking around the net, you need a camera and some normal friends to take pictures with. Successful lurkers have cameras, clean houses and friends they can take pics with, oh and know how to crop.
3. In a Relationship Status? Why are you messaging me? I always love going through my roommates friend requests, because they always have one friend in common with these weird guys, and it’s always me. Hehehehe woops. Anyway, the other day we clicked on one guy and I couldn’t even believe it, it said Married to Patty Smith or whatever. I got so mad! Poor Patty has no idea her sick husband is adding young floozies like me and my roommates on Facebook. That’s cheating. If you’re in a relationship or even worse, married, why are you adding younger, cute girls online? That’s called opening doors and you’re the last fool anyone wants to talk to. Appreciate Patty before I email her telling her what a creep you are. If Patty left you you’d fall apart and die so why don’t you get off Facebook and go give her a kiss. So over men not appreciating their women and using social sites to fantasize about other girls. My roommates and I will never like you. Get off the computer.

1 Comment7 Signs You’re Dating a Player
Posted in: Boysss, Dating Do's & Don'ts
Haha, I found this article on Cosmo.com and I had to share! The top 7 signs he’s probably dating you and uh yeah, 7 others. I loved it, so funny. Not like I can relate or anything… Some are so true, but some are so dumb. Anyway, here are Cosmo’s 7 player signs to look out for while dating.
1. All of His Exes Are “Crazy”
Be wary of a man who refers to his former girlfriends as crazy, psycho, or clingy — because what’s the common denominator here? Duh, him. The dude’s either nuts, or he never really wanted the relationship to work in the first place. Don’t forget, behind every crazy chick is probably (not always) a guy who made her that way.
2. He Plans Ultra-Romantic Dates
A cozy candlelit dinner is nice and all, but if he only takes you to secluded places, it could be a tip-off that he doesn’t want other women to spot him on a date. Next time he asks you out, suggest hitting up a busy restaurant or popular bar and see how he reacts.3. He’s Hot and Cold on the Phone
He’ll text you 10 times in a night, then go MIA for days. He’ll chat on the phone for an hour, then ignore your messages for the rest of the week. Wondering what the hell is going on? We’re going to be brutally honest: He’s mostly likely busy dating other women.4. He Guilt-Trips You
It’s normal for a guy to be eager to sleep with you from day one. But this behavior is a red flag if he a. lays the pressure on thick, or b. tries to make you feel bad if you choose not to have sex — like by giving you a sob story about blue balls. Point is he obviously doesn’t care about respecting you, all he wants is a quick solution to his down below problem.5. Stuff Is Missing from His Facebook Profile
Did he untag photos of you and him? Refuses to add your pictures? Does he update or check it often, yet never mentions hanging out with you? Is his relationship status hidden? We smell a rat. A big fat rat. A guy who’s leery of commitment will make sure there are no traces of you on his page. Read More | Comments -

No CommentsI think the hardest part of being in a relationship is actually understanding what your bf wants is probably very different than what you want. Guys and girls have about as much in common as dogs and cats, so we have to remember what makes you happy doesn’t necessarily make him happy.
Us girls feed off of emotional love and support and well, during hard times, most men prefer the opposite, they want to handle it alone. It’s girls’ natural instinct to observe our boyfriends having bad days and wanting to do anything in our power to make it better, because well, that is what we want. We have a bad day and we want our boyfriends to call and talk about it, make dinner plans, lay in bed with us as we cry, the whole 9 yards. So when we see the guys upset, we do what we would want them to do for us, but in reality that’s not what most men want. Guys like dealing with things at their own pace, in their own space and actually enjoy figuring things out on their own. So next time your man has a bad day and you’re rushing to his side, take a step back and think about what he really wants, space.
It seems counterintuitive, but a new series of studies from the University of Iowa discovered that too much support can actually hurt your relationship. “There is this myth that the more encouraging you are, the better,” says lead researcher Erika Lawrence, PhD. “In fact, being overly helpful does greater damage than providing too little assistance.”
The study also discussed real life situations, men that had been in a tough place—often having been laid off—and the women dropped everything to help them: searching for position openings, proofreading their résumés, being extra affectionate, etc. They thought they were doing exactly what a loving girlfriend or wife should do. But in case after case, guys actually ended up leaving the partners who’d been the most outwardly compassionate. Men are crazyyy, but that’s naturally just how they function.
