Anyone else have a partner who "isn't really into clothing" but yet always has strong opinions about it? Omg. Hi. I do.
Pinky, my husband, and yes, there's a whole story to his name -- short version: he managed a Latin-Disco-Punk band in San Francisco in the early '90s and needed a stage name...and it stuck -- hates clothes shopping....
Let's just get the Dad party started with the T-shirts. Mostly just because they brought me life through so many smiles this morning, and we all take a little love, light and laughter in remembering to celebrate our fathers!
We've got the It's Not A Dad Bod, It's A Father Figure Shirt, and then there's the Ain't No Hood...
All the good men need at least one pair of Sunday Joggers, #amiright? Those same good men might also need a quick and easy whole-closet-refresh to brighten their work-from-home, school-from-home, and lounge-at-home styles (and lives). A little style refresh can even brighten the lives of those in quarantine with them all day, every day.
Ladies, I offer you this gem...
I asked two man friends, for a list of what a man needs in quarantine. One of them answered, "a woman, water, food, shelter." The other, helped me craft the highly edited wish list below. Shortest intro I might ever write.
Enough said. So here's our well-edited, for-the-guys-that-are-lucky-enough-to-be-healthy-and-at-home, Quarantine Kit For Men. Spoiler: it does not not include women, water,...
Remember how I said you might go stir-crazy if you don't enjoy some sort of snow activity in the winter? That goes for kids too--especially for kids. Fortunately, Greenlea's usually pretty excited to get outside. Uncle Mike took her skiing last year (she loved it), and she always has fun sledding with her cousins...Auntie Shana even got her on...
I'm not sure the last time someone told me that their husband/significant other/boyfriend/father/brother was easy to shop for. I'm sure there are Those Men out there. I just can't think of one off the top of my mind. What I can conjure up is 45 years of having an amazingly fun father, two crazy, wonderful brothers, a sizable collection...
I can't be the only one who waits until the verrrrrry end of the sale to shop for my guy...right? Do guys clothes even sell out? Or, more accurately, does anybody care if they do? (Oh darn, that blue button down sold out!! Well...I guess I'll just have to go with...any of the 20 other blue button downs...
You guys. I just came across the BEST shopping site EVER, and all I could think was how have I not heard of this one before?? It's an awesomely curated retail site with everything from our favorite clothing brands (Free People, , ASTR the Label, etc.,) to our favorite hair and beauty brands (Oribe, Kevyn Aucoin, Supergoop!) to brands...
Turns out I'm not the only one in the family who was down for a fall wardrobe update. Poor Pinky only gets one every few years because...why are guys so hard to shop for? I know why. Because they say they aren't picky and don't have opinions on what they wear, but they do. Oh, they do. (I'm lookin'...
I always wait until the end of the Anniversary sale to shop for Mike and the kids. Frankly, by the last weekend of the sale I'm OVER ALL OF IT GO AWAY but then I remember that Mike needs underwear and sooooo. Here I am.
Anyway, we had gotten a few questions about what we're shopping/buying/keeping for the rest of...
