Weekend Picture Book

It was just the bro and I this weekend! We had coffee, did a little shopping...

...and went on a dinner date. These are our cocktails- we like them straight up!

A Christmas Date

One doesn't necessarily think of the holidays and squeezing in date nights. What with holiday socials, feasts, and family gatherings to attend. But Alan and I always try to make a little time for the two of us, the weather is conducive to snuggling after all!

1. Cozy up in must-have cashmere and turn up the Christmas tunes. This album is my fave!

2. Fill the house with the delicious smell of the holidays. I prefer these mulling spices. Don't forget to use them for hot toddies too!

3. Dig up some of your shared favorite cookie recipes, perhaps some festive and fun new cookie cutters too. I love the classic chocolate chip. Alan thinks all sugar tastes the same. Silly. Set aside a few for Santa.

4. Snuggle up on the couch for your favorite holiday movie. We like to watch Love Actually; it was our first date! And then perhaps a little of this ;)

Condoms for a Cause...Not just yours.

"We're all for socially conscious companies, and we're also all for getting laid." -Uncrate Mag.

"Meaning every time you rock your partner’s world, you change it." -Daily Candy 

I would have to agree. Inspired by HIV prevention efforts in Haiti, for every one purchase, a condom is donated to a developing country. Like Toms, kinda.

You've Got Mail

How darling are these address labels?

So necessary for Christmas card writing and the quintessential hand-written note.

For the Beau

These bow ties.

This mustache.

And a pipe.

Wicked

I know python has been all the rage this fall, but how's this for a fresh spin on snakeskin! Pair with skinny golightly cigarette pants, bold red lips, and these fierce sunnies- straight up wicked.
