Things I like

Love this new site, the Straight Leg-which touts itself as the man's guide to being stylish without loking gayish. This is totally a real thing--sometimes the hipster trend sends the skinny straight(ish) male right over the edge. Wear your scarves carefully, straights. Also, ladies & gays, please remember to apply Tom and Lorenzo's advice "Say what you are wearing outloud before you go outside." This may help you from wearing "A fur vest with my acid-wash denim shorts and my black suede booties with my fashionable headband." Hmm...

The folks at the Straight Leg categorize male outfits with one of three labels: A Tom Cruise head (gay), A Jude Law head (borderline), or a George Clooney head (straight, obvs.). 

They have some handsome, stylish dudes featured like this guy. 

The Bleecker Collection

These children for Gap Kid's Bleecker Collection are infinitely more stylish than I'll ever be. And they're 6. It alarms me.

I apologize for the shitty quality.

Trend Spotting: Cakes

Forgive me, I've had weddings on the brain after attending a lovely ceremony this Columbus Day (10/10/10).

Daily Candy promoted DC-based cake artist magician Maggie Austin in Monday's email. And then later that day, I saw another example of this off-centered stacked cake. All of sudden this stacked cake is appearing everywhere. I totally get it. It's smart, whimsical, different, and eye-catching.

While we are gushing about cakes, take a peek at some of the other beautiful specimens Maggie put together.

If love isn't your thing today, there are some equally as fantastic divorce cakes as well.
