So I did. And then I vested him! hahahahah
Okay, terrible pun but I decided to do another Friday for the Fellas, and I managed to find 2 items that TOTAL less than 30 bucks! I am so happy/pleased with myself.
I wonder if any guys read this? If you're out there, let me know! I hate to think I'm spending time finding clothes for men that don't exist, and Himself never reads my blog, so I can't even tell myself I'm doing it for him.
Anyway, these 2 items are from Kohl's and I'll start with the belt that has both a sweet looking gunmetal buckle, and is reversible, so it works no matter what. I love it-it has a modern look without being over the top, and it's really versatile. You could pair it with almost anything and pull it off (tuxes excluded).
The second is this ADORABLE vest that is SEVEN DOLLARS right now. I am a huge fan of the sweater vest in general, and this one has a great color scheme. I would love it even more if they had thrown in some navy, orange and electric green, but you can't have everything for under 10 bucks, at least not in my neck of the woods!
Well, there you have it. Fellas, fork out less than 30 bucks, pair these items with some cords, a grey or white tee and sneakers, and stir vigorously for some instant hotness.

Cheap, department-store love, kasey
Look - they match! One girl and one boy! Okay, okay, they're not exactly the same, but I LOVE this men's track jacket, and it compliments yesterday's piece pretty well. Right now, I'm jealous of every man who can fit into this jacket. This is a jacket that a really hot guy wears, and I want one for myself but I'm too small.
Fellas, you can find this on eastbay.com for 20 bucks! If you're a male who is reading this post - if you don't buy this jacket, you are a straight-up fool. A fool that lets a good deal just walk right out the door. A fool who probably thinks Ben Wallace being a Cavalier wasn't a good use of a trade. A fool that I would send to fooltown to spend foolmoney on foolhookers.
Anyway, this is a hot jacket and you should get it while you can.

Lots of salty, acidic love, Kasey
Here is the second piece in my man-centric post sequence. I'll admit, I was on the fence on this one - it's at the top of my price range, and it's only available in a L and XL on jcrew.com.
But like many things, this sweater grew on me. The more I thought about it, the more it appealed. It would look great with a blue or striped oxford or a graphic tee underneath (and I have just the tee - let me know if you want to see it). Or, if you're really daring, wear it alone and let that chest hair shine! I promise to post ALL of those photos prominently.
Anyway, the sweater is available in a men's large or extra large on jcrew.com for $29.99. Pick one up and floss Jack White and/or Freddy Krueger-style for a day.

Still loving you, Kasey
So today is all about the fellas. I've found a few things for the men, and since all I have been doing thus far is posting about really cute but girlie stuff, today shall be the day of He. Men, we love you, especially when you are dressed nicely. I am convinced that a man with style can get away with most anything.
Behold, the tie. Every man needs a good tie, and so many of them out there are boring, expensive, or both. I personally like funky ties (shocking, I know) but I know there are those out there who don't want to put it all out there with their tie or work somewhere that can skew a bit conservative.
Imagine my happiness when I came across a tie that's a perfect marriage of style, thrift, and restraint. I love the pattern which adds a little funk to an otherwise very staid color palette. I can see it being worn with a solid color shirt or a pinstriped shirt of the same color family.
This little dear will set you back 19.99 at your local Target, or at target.com.
A little side note, and I can do this because a) it's a mens posting, and b) it's my blog: OMG THE CAVS GOT BIG BEN WALLACE. YEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!
