Chronic Dissatisfaction...Time for a Change
We all know the phrase from the wonderful Penelope Cruz in Vicky, Christina, Barcelona. I've been tackling this issue since I was a kid and I know it's not just me. We are constantly overwhelmed by communication, advertising and messages telling us how to be a "better you." It's to the point where I feel like I will never be satisfied with anything. I'm always looking at the big picture and worried about the future. That's the exact reason why I always feel inadequate and tend to drive people platanos. Plus, the fact that I am the most impatient person on the planet (Gemini) doesn't help the situation. In my old age of 25, I'm realizing this is not the way to be if I want to be happy...So *cues drum roll* for my New Year's resolution, I'm going to try my best to live in the moment & cherish each breath I take.

10 Fashion "No No's" for Men this Winter
Hey my loves. I know I've been inconsistent with the blogging but I'm doing the best I can to keep up. My Thanksgiving was fabulous. My sister cooked enough food to feed a small country. I'm back in the Big Apple now and I've managed to catch the wonderful common cold. *sneeze x 3*
I notice a lot of outlandish male fashion "no nos" during the commute to my office in the morning. A few tips...
1) If you are over the age of the 30, you should not be wearing a backpack. I know some men are addicted to backpacks but it kinda makes you look like an over-sized 8th grader. Don't be afraid to transition to the satchel aka the man purse or of course a brief case.
2) Socks that don't match. I always look at a man's socks. DO NOT wear white socks with dress shoes. Be sure the socks match or simply choose neutral colors that match everything. Oh and there's nothing sexier than a man with argyle socks.
3) Sneakers with suits. I know men love kicks but you need to know when to put on dress shoes. COME ON!
4) The overall Paul Bunyan look. Door is that way ---->
5) Any large cartoon logo T's need to go! You are not Clark Kent!
6) Camouflage or Army Gear. GTFOH
7) BUBBLE VESTS!
8) Plumber's crack. I've seen men wear tight jeans and they still manage to hang off their behinds.
9) Tags. Pop them off. It makes you look desperate. Are you returning that?!
10) Dirty baseball caps. Just throw them out or keep it in the closet. Ever smell a guy's old hat?! Enough said.

People are saying this ad is too racy. Personally, I love it. I mean her fragrance is called HEAT! She definitely got the point across.

Where to Grub in NYC?: Lavo
I went to this magnificent Italian restaurant a few weeks ago on a Friday night. This is definitely one of those places where you have to make a reservation waaaaaaay ahead of time. Needless to say, the crowd was very upper east side chic and fabulous. I really enjoyed myself. The service was impeccable and the food was delicious.
Recommendatons:
Appetizer: Baked Clams Oreganato
Entree: Center Cut Filet or the Meatballs...yes I said meatballs. Best I ever had (c) Drake. & Sea Salt Baked Potatoes.
Dessert: Tiramisu

I Know I Haven't Been Blogging Much...
I haven't been blogging much lately but I still manage to put up at least 2 blog posts a day. My career is reaching new plateaus and I've been extremely busy lately. I'm going to be posting at night now. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up.
Oh & some photos of me & the girls from over the weekend. I look the exact same in all of them. It's almost as if they are posing with a "Jenny Marie" cardboard cut out lol...
