Gift Guide: Menswear Monday

Welcome to my first of 4 gift guides for 2014!  Today is all about that special guy in your life, whether it be a brother, boyfriend, husband, father, grandfather, cousin, GBF, guy friend (you get the drift...).  Last year I gifted my brother a watch for Christmas and in my opinion a watch is a pretty safe bet for a gift.  Since there are so many options out there (dressy, sporty, casual, etc.), it's easy to scoop one up for almost any guy on your list.  I'm really loving the new Victorinox Night Vision watches (if you caught my first post about the new brand here you can see why they're so great!) - and especially the green color option.  I don't know why but lately I've gravitated toward dark green as a new neutral.   I've also included a few other tech gadgets and clothing/accessory options.  I have to confess, I threw the camo tote in because one of my best guy friends has one and I'm completely obsessed with it (so much that I've thought about buying one for myself!).  My go-to retailers for men's gifts are Gap, Nordstrom (especially the under $100 section), Brookstone and Urban Outfitters (there's some amazing, quirky things on UO right now!).  Would love to hear what you're planning to scoop up and who you're shopping for!  

iPhone Fisheye Lens, Portable Speaker, Victoriox Night Vision watch, Burton Touch Screen Gloves, Graphic Image iPad Cover, Minnetonka Slippers, Gap Camo Tote, Beer Making Kit, Herschel Duffel Bag, Monogrammed Flask, North Face Pullover

The Week: Food, Fashion and Fitness

This Week I...

Had kind of a crazy week at work, leaving little time for fun stuff!  Well, let's be serious, I did spend some time drooling over this ASOS dress and crop top.  Oh and this only-in-my-dreams Erdem floral dress - it's to.die.

I hit up the United Nude and Elizabeth & James sample sales on Monday - and came home with a really great pair of United Nude pumps that I can't wait to share!

I scooped up a couple of pieces from the Peter Som x Kohl's collection!  I grabbed this striped romper and the black jumpsuit - I'm really hoping I've finally found my "perfect black jumpsuit"!  Hurry, it's actually all on sale as we speak!  And take an extra 20% off when you spend $100 or more with  code CHOCOLATE #bestdealever.

I received my new Graphic Image passport cover, just in time for booking my flight for my big adventure this year!  Stay tuned to find out where I'm going!

I figured out I was featured on Elle ES!  Check it out - I'm in their printed jumpsuit roundup.

And in other news, I made my go-to kale salad for the week and still can't get over how filling and delicious it is!  And I made it to the gym 2 times... #whomp. 

Hope you all had a great week!
