Guess how much?

People hate when I play the "guess how much my outfit cost?" game, because it's about the only one I play, because I always win. The leggings are Rachel Hunter and the top part is actually a dress - both from sample sale yesterday where I got about 20 items and paid a grand total of $10. Only about 3 of them didn't fit so I'm stoked!! I took the white ruffle off the amazing jacket which totally did it justice. Because it was raining I went with the old trusty mid-calf boots - otherwise I might have opted for suede black heels.

So this was to go to my friend's birthday party last night, who I hadn't seen in 2 years, and his feedback was that my blog is pretty much useless to males. Now, I don't intend for this blog to be useful to anyone, in fact it's pretty much a joke project that has transformed into a way to make myself accountable for my appearance. But he's right, the marketing guru in me tells me that I'm alienating 50% off my potential audience base. So I either need more gratuitous flesh shots or.. I can write something guys might actually care about - albeit in a tongue in cheek way of course! So here goes..

FASHION TIPS FOR GUYS:

1. Most importantly!
As discovered last night, if you wear a shirt that domes up at the front, women will want to rip it open, there is no denying this fact. What you can do to make the most of this situation - invest in a Superman logo tee to wear underneath said shirt, when they rip it open they will be powerless to your advances. Or you'll at least get a laugh.

2. Learn to accentuate your assets!
Women are very good at this on the most part, we have bits we know guys like so we show them off. I'm not denying this fact. Alternately, we wear something that hints to their existence, but obscures them slightly, making it even more alluring. I know guys' body shapes and fashion are not as aesthetic as women's, however, most women have something about guys that they like. Find what your strengths are and play on them, this will only make you look better overall!

3. It's always better to be overdressed than underdressed.
You're never going to look like a douchebag. You're going to look important, or like you have somewhere else to be, or, at the very least, damn good. If you're reading a fashion blog you obviously have some inkling of a care-factor about your appearance so use that to your advantage, it will get you further than you think.

That's all I have right now because I just updated about 10 blog entries from the last 3 weeks. But feedback works wonders, and I'm happy for it. Have a great weekend. x
