  • Historical fashion icon: The dandy “Beau” Brummel

    Personally, I have been on the hunt for men’s fashion influencers I can follow who are crushing it in the fashion game. Apparently there is one who I should know about, but I am just about 200 years late to notice. The man is George Bryan “Beau” Brummel. He is credited as most famous dandy.…

  • Evolving fashion trends, evolving cultures

    Have you ever heard of a dandy? What about the trendy S-shape? Unisex fashion? Chances are you’ve heard of the last one. But I’m guessing you might have also heard at some point of metrosexuals, pretty boys, the booty fitness obsession, and gender neutral clothing. I’ve heard it said that that history repeats itself, the…

  • Thom Browne and Adidas locked in a trademark dispute

    It appears that adidas has taken Thom Browne to court for the use of a signature four bar. Adidas says that the usage has caused confusion for customers; it is a little too close to the Adidas signature three stripe. I am not a lawyer, so I am curious how the arguments get tailored by…

  • I tried the Glow Recipe Dew Drops for a month. These are my thoughts

    This is what I knew about Glow Recipe before I decided to give their products a serious try: Cute fun packaging and everything has a fruit of some sort. If you are playing along, you should probably guess that means not very much. So having done little to no research ahead of time, I was…

  • I’m going to start overspraying my fragrance. Let me explain

    I have typically been very delicate with how I apply my fragrances. A tiny spritz on the wrist there and there. This is partially because I want to save the best smelling scents for some time to come in the future and partially because I don’t want to be offensive. I am going to stop…

  • To spend time like money

    I had been thinking a good goal for me this year was to be more productive. But that is vague and not really the problem. My real issue is in how I choose to spend my time. You see, I donate a lot of my time to YouTube. I am responsible for so much watch…

  • Rethinking house clothes

    A festival was happening outside. I could hear the music. Everyone’s joy was even louder. I’d considered joining them. I even got dressed to go. I put on a dress I’d been eager to wear.  I did my hair. I was ready to go. And then I just sat on my bed with my laptop…

  • Increasing income is not the same as increasing wealth

    Boy, am I tired. It has been a while since I have had day off. Even during the holiday period, I picked up a part-time job. I constantly picked up shifts, because as everyone knows more work equals more pay. I was doing whatever I could to increase my income. My thought was, I would…

  • Learning from my fashion mistakes

    I remember it well. I had a great outfit planned out. My top was light blue. It was a color that I pulled from the floral maxi I was going to wear with it. Pastel + flower= springtime. I was set, except I looked a mess. When it was time to leave the house, I…

  • No more aspirational purchases

    I have a very fancy candle and diffuser set. I bought during a sale. It was a bit of splurge, but I told myself that it would be addition for my new place when I moved. It was such a good deal, I went ahead and bought it, in hopes of having the keys in…
