i ALMOST forgot to send this to you!


Hey Reader,

Happy Thursday Monday!

I'm getting ready to power down the laptop for Christmas and New Year's. We're traveling around a bit to see family, so I may not talk to you until next year (!)

So before I do that, I wanted to send you these three things!

1. What To Wear To An Upcoming Holiday Party

Let's ditch the ugly Christmas sweater—unless it's an Ugly Christmas Sweater-themed party, I guess—and go the sharp and stylish route instead.

Here are 4 outfit ideas, from more dressy, to more casual and comfortable (but still put together) →

2. How To Style Classic Nike Sneakers: 3 Different Pairs, 6 Total Outfits

I teamed up with Nike and my friend Megan (from Style Girlfriend) to style three different outfits using the same three classic Nike sneaker models.

That's 6 different outfits, all in the smart casual realm. Use this as inspiration, and if you see pieces you like, we linked directly to them as well.

3. Gifts That'll Still Arrive On Time

I know, I know, we're cutting it close here with the gift purchasing.

If you're a slacker like I am, it'll come as a relief—though not an excuse to keep procrastinating!—to know there's still plenty of great menswear, accessories, and fun tech-related stuff on Amazon that should deliver to you before Christmas.

A few highlights on the list:

  • Bulova Men's Archive Series Lunar Pilot — the same model worn on the moon in 1971
  • GAP's straight fit denim — lots of sizes and colorways
  • Thursday Boots' Diplomat moc toe boot
  • Several models of Ray-Bans
  • An Electrolux steamer — I don't iron, I steam everything
  • My favorite pair of Beats Studios headphones
  • A Bose speaker I take every time I travel

Take a quick look at all my last-minute finds: Here's our humble Amazon "Last Minute Gift Guide" →

That's it!

Have a happy holiday and new year if we don't chat before then ;)
