An Epic Father's Day Guide

via someecards.com

I'll never pretend to understand what makes guys tick. I mean, things that moms would just never allow seem completely okay in a dad's mind. Watermelons as a snack? Yes. Empty watermelons as helmets? Better. Red tights worn under a dress? Conventional for a 5-year old girl right? Red tights as superhero pants paired with your son's Superman tee? Super freaking awesome. 

The same illogical logic usually applies to gifts, too. There's something about boxes that hold fire and cook bacon, and things that drill into other things, and machines that record vital stats while he's walking to the beer fridge that make him really, really happy. But as we all know, a happy wife (or daughter) makes for a happy life so I've pulled together a Father's Day guide to please all parties.

There's gym gear for the athlete and gadgets that will appease his inner geek, plus clothes that he can wear whilst washing his grown-up Hot Wheels. And yet everything in this guide looks super stylish (and might even push him outside of his style safe-zone) so you can rest assured that he will not be greeting the neighbours in his tragic Crocs and Budweiser tee at your next backyard BBQ. Shudder.

Breathe a sigh of relief and find your perfect gift here. Happy Father's Day!

Anything goes at the beach. While time might slow down when your feet are planted firmly in the sand, horrendous fashion crimes are committed every 1.6 seconds.  From Crocs to too-tight-everythings, it's best to keep one's eyes focused on a trashy beach read to avoid Speedo PTSD later on. 

You, of course, are a beacon of chic, in your super cute 'kini, sweet shades and killer curves. But even the most savvy of beach-goers sometimes forget about a perfect bag. Consider it the icing on the cake (or the lime in your Corona) to your perfect playa look; and in my mind, the brighter, the more stripey, the better. I've tracked down the cutest under-$40 totes to carry all of your summer essentials, from sunscreen to your cellphone, in style...
