KEEPIN IT NEIL....... BUT NOT SO MUCH REAL

Oh Erin Wasson, how do i count the ways?  


hit up that good RVCA sample sale last week and am STILL beating myself up over not scooping up these ridiculously perfect suede shorts......  paired with this easy breezy airy button up and its breakin my heart....

Yes, there was also a graphite colored washed silk button up with FRINGE detailing across the chest and down those good cowboy shootin arms that I PASSED UP...... this whole ballin on a budget thing is sincerely wounding my wardrobe..... an ode to my epic fail with this tassssstey fringed white dress....

P.S. are you even human?

Ok   Jack and Lazaro,  STOP IT RIGHT NOW!  -- Ok PLEASE don't , but really -- how DO you DO it?!?


Whoulda thought that a med school student and a glass blower would be poundin out the greatest hits in fashion every single fuckin season?!!? 


Summer 2010 blew my mind, but after this fall preview, its official: you are robots sent here from the planet of "Fuuuuuck yeah" ......

ONE MORE TIME WITH FEELING

I am officially the worst -- don't even want to count how many days..... weeks.....

I neeeeed to release before I explode. Alright, gutter brains, since that probably sounds terrible, see below for what im talllllkin bout:

Alright, now that we've gotten that outta the way -- lets try and get over this minor....er..... riff and move forward. Im not gonna promise anything -- but I will do my best to get my shit together and stay on top of the game......... ive missed you -- --- ENJOY : )

THE CHINO HILLS HAVE EYES........

And they're giving you the death stare..... in hopes you'll come out their way and kick back with the Beachworks peeps, Element Babes, and fellow frothy shoppers....

who can turn down a good discount on kick ass threads; stylists and photographers capturing you turnin your swag on; and other classy freebies?!? -- If this sounds like your idea of a rip-roaring good time, head towards the hills and on into the Beachworks store where the Element crew awaits you....

THE BREW BOX...

Sure, 45 bones is a pretty penny- no argument there- but when you put the music of Great Northern, and Nico Stai along with over 35 breweries for a musical beerfest delight of sorts.... 45 dollars doesnt seem so hefty. 


Not like you would need a sip of alcohol to enjoy the magical sounds of Great Northern or Nico stai (or the Dum Dum girls, or Castle door, or the Deadly Syndrome, or..-yes there's more ...) - but a tasty freshly hoped up brew could just make for  a very delightful string of events..... - lucky for you: there's unlimited tasting allll night long.....

EPIC FAIL....

For anyone paying attention (so most likely just my parents) you have probably lost interest now due to the severe lack of love and excitement -  but fret not oh faithful followers - the week from hell is over and PBE is rockin back into motion.


Not to dwell, but there was more than a bit of amazingness that was missed in the hiatus. - Nico Stai shows; Matt costa's sold out show at Detroit - Billabong designed a hotel room in Laguna - Kustom footwear's poolside photoshoot - and much more- but hopefully we can move past this and still be friends....

MO MONEY, MO - STACHE!!

Some may call a hearty fascination with the mustache, "creepy". Well, i say "bite your tongue" because im hard pressed to find anything more glorious, captivating and hilarious than a solid mustache, especially worn proudly on a friend. 

You could imagine my excitement then when a dapper young gentleman friend clued me in on the australian tradition of MOVEMBER. - such inspiration coming from a kid who takes about 6 months to grow peach fuzz on his upper lip... i knew i had to support the cause. -- yes, it is a month long celebration of the mustache in all its rare shapes and forms... a chance to showcase your talents and classiness, but also, and probably more importantly (debatable) is that all of the proceeds go to men's prostate cancer and depression. 

this site is filled with enough spectacular articles and photos to entertain a small army. please dial this into your address bar... and check back frequently....

and yes, there is also a site completely dedicated to stripping away the masculinity of any boy who isn't man enough to "grow a mo".

 -- let me get this straight: AUSTRALIANS....teams of men trying to grow facial hair, and full on bashing of anyone who thinks they are too cool. Yeah, my life is complete...
