life has a TWO sock maximum

a pretty grool video that illustrates a very important SMYLA concept:

never stuff a sock down your pants. not only is it never a good look, but later, you'll have some major 'splainin to do.



and for those of you as dense as i, no, those aren't sextuplets (one's cut out on the far right... whoopsies), it's the same guy doing all the parts... that seriously took me an embarrassingly long time (reading his bio) to come to that conclusion...

thanks DAB for the vid!

dirty dancing lives on

Texts between my brother and me late yesternight:


So, there's really no time like the present to pay homage to one of the best movies of all time (Dirty Dancing, DUH), and the sincerest form of flattery is imitation, right??

If it's still warm enough where you are, dare to pull a Baby Houseman and wear this (which all just HAPPENS to be back in style... weird):

American Apparel Bodysuit, Forever 21 Denim Shorts, Abercrombie & Fitch Braided Leather Belt, Urban Outfitter Sneaker

Best way to update the look for a night out on the town this fall??? Sub skinny dark jeans in for the shorts, and a pair of gladiator heels in for the sneaks... then (dare i say it??) go DIRTY DANCING.
