First Thought Of The Day

I thought of this quote right when I woke up.  Not true, my first thought was “I’m so tired, I just want to sleep for 2 more hours.”  But then I decided to turn it around.  Have a great day! JD

Style By Jury

I’ve been having conversations about style lately, as per usual, and a friend of mine put it perfectly when he said…

“When people don’t care about personal style, they neglect a part of their artistic integrity” — Luke Langsdale

It’s so true!  I’ve noticed that a lot more men are dressing better in the city of Toronto lately and it’s a nice sight.  Women in Canada already do a good job of looking pretty and awesome, but it’s the men who are finally catching on….it’s about time!  I think H&M is responsible for people all over the world dressing better.  They make it so easy for us.  They make stylish clothes that everyone can afford, so why not have fun with your wardrobe?   Some people think it’s shallow to spend time and effort on the way you look, but I believe it really says a lot about a person and shows individuality.

I think we need a photo of a stylish man on Seven Dollar Pants…what do you think?  In due time! JD

I Heart Betty

“Only boring people are bored” — Betty Draper

Betty & Don Draper in Rome – Mad Men Season 3

If you didn’t already know – I am OBSESSED with the show Mad Men and Betty Draper in particular.  I seriously cannot get enough of this show.  Season 4 just started and my lack of owning a TV has put me in a little state of panic because I don’t want to get behind.  I’m hoping I can find the episodes online — going to check that out soon.  In any case, if you haven’t tuned into Mad Men yet – what are you waiting for?  I think January Jones (who plays Betty Draper) is SO pretty.  Did you know she dated Ashton Kutcher and he said she’d never make it as an actor?  He advised her to quit but that just pushed to keep going.  TAKE THAT ASHTON!! Revenge is sweet.  JD
