Dressing Up for Date Night

Matching with him in blue and fun patterns for date night!  Check prints for him and polka dots for me!

We try our best to have date night once a week.  It’s an opportunity for us to get dressed up and try a new activity or restaurant.  Lately, we’ve been obsessed with mediterranean food and magic shows!

In addition to a timeless crisp suit, Colin is a huge fan of patterned suits.  It’s such a great twist on the classic menswear piece.  Him and I both love rich deep blue colors.  And blue mixed with checks pattern and a tailored cut… it’s dashing, contemporary, and youthful!

This Topman blue suit has all of the ingredients above and more.  A slim cut, slender notch lapels… it just feels very modern and fun!  And I love that he styled the blue with brown accents.  *taking mental notes for my own styling* =)

Whether it’s for a suit, an incredible outerwear piece (like this AllSaints leather jacket), everyday basics (these Treasure & Bond henleys are super comfortable), or holiday gift item (like this lightweight and chic Daniel Wellington timepiece) for him, I always check on Nordstrom Men first.  It’s easy to search for items, learn about different brands, and earn rewards.  And also, Colin loves shopping and reading the advice column!  Here’s an example – How to Clean Suede Shoes.

If you’re in NYC, you have to try – Colonie in Brooklyn for amazing pastas, Nur on 20th Street for incredible Middle Eastern food, Fedora in the West Village for its steak and duck fried rice dish, and JeJu Noodle Bar in the West Village for their super delicious Gochu Ramyun ramen!  After dinner, head over to Monday Night Magic.  Go with an open mind and don’t expect much =D

Happy Friday and thank you so much for reading!  And special thanks to Nordstrom for partnering on this post!

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
