MAKING THE CASE TO AVOID ALL SIGNS OF WINTER
We’ll have you believe, not all ignorance is bliss, but rather, all seasonal ignorance of the wintry kind is sublime. This is to say, we hate Winter. And just like every time we hear the phrase, “I hate cats,” from a random stranger, we become experts in the art of ignoring. All like, if we…

WE WENT ON A CALIFORNIA COAST ROAD TRIP (SORT OF)
Key words being, “sort of,” given that 1) our coastal road trip only spanned ⅓ the length of California and 2) we spent the majority of our time just looking for Jack in the Box and Taco Bell. Altogether meaning it was the BEST kind of road trip. Chalupas and sourdough jacks, our true salvation.…

HAPPY SHOESDAY: WE BOUGHT, RETURNED, THEN BOUGHT THIS SHOE AGAIN
Honestly, though, please tell us we’re not the only ones who’ve done that before. Bought, returned, then bought the same shoe again. It’s a clear indication of our indecisiveness. For example, every time someone asks us what we’d like to eat, we reply with “food;” you really can’t go wrong with “food.” And so the…

NEW YEAR, NEW BASICS
We’re huge fans of the phrase, “New Year, New You,” solely because it justifies a shopping spree courtesy of the comment, “you know what we need? A MAKEOVER” followed by an exclamation of joyful screaming and dancing around in our underwear. a.k.a. our Saturday, last weekend. Two days into the new year and we’re already…

WHAT WE WON’T WAKE UP WITHOUT
Regarding waking up, aside from the fact that we’d rather not, we’ve each formed a dependent relationship with a specific product. For Brock, it’s Kiehl’s Daily Reviving Concentrate. For Chris, it’s Peter Thomas Roth’s Cucumber Gel Mask. Which, by the sound of it all, just makes us seem like high-maintenance princesses. Probably because WE ARE.…

WE’LL BE WEARING VELVET
In the spirit of a typical New Year’s Eve for us, this year especially, we’ll likely have drank too much champagne by the stroke of midnight, corresponding with the following scenario: Chris: “BROCK. BROCK. BROCK. It’s midnight!” Brock: “What?” Chris: “IT’S MIDNIGHT. MID. NIGHT.” Brock: “WHAT?!” Chris: “IT’S MIDN… oh no, oh no, OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO,…

WHAT TO WEAR ON THE FIRST DAY OF WINTER
This isn’t so much a tell-all as it is a request for support in justifying our problem obsession with buying winterwear for the sake of saying, “but, it’s slightly cold out, I need a new coat.” Which is exactly the excuse we gave ourselves when we bought this Pendleton wool chore coat and this TOPMAN hooded…

IF 90s CHRISTMAS SONGS WERE COCKTAILS
We hold the following to be true: 1) the holidays are here, therefore we drink, 2) therefore, also, Mariah is on repeat. When asked the question, “what are your holiday traditions?” we’re all like, “ummm, spiked punch?” and then we’re all like, “oh, it sounds like we have a problem, huh?” because we’re super selfish…
