Look sharp and smart for your first interview
by Andrew Woj, the Straight Guy’s Stylist
Last week I told you what not to wear: cargo pants. This week, I’m going to give you my fail-safe formula for interview apparel — after all, I’ve been going on my fair share this month. All you need are these five things to wow the HR director:
1. The undershirt, not a wife beater or tank. Often overlooked, this ensures a...

Holiday workouts are the best!
Because you do what you love.
You don’t overthink it. You’re not focused on a specific goal. You just do simply what makes you feel good.
So enjoy getting your heart racing today!
I’m off to teach spin. Here’s my playlist:
We were talking about “Yeah!” by Usher the other day. Truly a classic.
Here’s yesterday’s mix. I think I like it...

"Mexico Lives On In Luxury" - Part 1 of 3 -...
It’s a shame your biggest fear when considering a vacation to Mexico is no longer Montezuma’s revenge, but rather for your personal security. After a year of travel throughout the country, my only concern was whether or not they used fresh lime juice to make my margaritas. Seriously. The U.S. Department of Defense has issued warnings against travel to 15 states in Mexico, but...

What does Relais & Chateau really mean??
Is it a chain of hotels like the Four Seasons? Is it a seal of approval like Michelin? Is it a travel guide like Fodors?
None of those descriptions are accurate.
Relais & Chateau is a collection of the best hotels and restaurants around the world with extraordinary gastronomic experiences. The brand signifies luxury accommodations and Michelin-caliber food.
For the last two days I...

What is your dog's favorite treat?
Poor Mason is so anti-social….
Anyway, I’m wondering what your dogs favorite treats are. Besides table food.
It’s hard to know when you’re looking at all of the bags in the store. Obviously you can determine the ingredients, but I’ve heard mixed reviews about certain brands. Specifically the Greenies. Mason won’t eat them, but some people have said...

I couldn’t help myself….GoDaddy’s boobilicious marketing campaign is so primitive. Hot girls with big boobs next to their logo. As the customer service guy pointed out to me on Monday, “it works.” Ugh. Men are not going to evolve in my lifetime.
I’ll tell you what works for me - 25% off my entire purchase.
As a valued customer they sent me a little flyer in...

My lashes have looked EXTRA luscious recently!
Honestly, I would have never know about this mascara if a friend hadn’t said, “trust me on this one.” Panthera mascara from Ultrafresh demands $26 per tube but packs a punch for every penny. If you were unsure of its power, you would absolutely pass it by. That my ladies, would be a big mistake. The wand features a stiff brush and a comb so you can apply and then separate...

So you want your arms to look like mine? Here are...
Readers have been emailing me about my arms recently, asking how do I get them so toned. In this video I share three of my secrets!
You’ll see you can do these exercises anywhere, which is always helpful.
The amount of weight you should use is a little unclear in this video. THE KEY IS TO KEEP THE WEIGHT LOW AND DO MORE REPS. Repetition = Definition (you’ve heard it a million...

I can’t believe I haven’t posted the tour of my suite at The Rosewood in San Miguel yet.
The interior of the room was nice as you’ll set, but I fell in love with the view. It was like living in a painting for a few days.
Many thanks to The Rosewood for hosting me to review their new special place. They went above and beyond to make it look and feel authentic. Not to...

A doctor's strategy to incorporating sugar in your...
Many people have been responding to the NYTimes article titled “Is Sugar Toxic?”
I posted about it a couple of weeks ago as well.
The more I think about it, the more I believe the journalist was addressing Americans’ over-consumption of sugar and lack of knowledge about its effects on the body. People who eat a healthy diet shouldn’t be “scared” necessarily. ...
I really really tried NOT to open my computer
But I did.
To prepare a post for tomorrow.
Even though I know I’ll be up before I want to post it.
But of course instead of just quickly doing the post, I went to twitter and responded to some mentions (because people were do nice to answer my questions), then I headed to my dashboard to catch up, and now I’m posting for no real reason…

5 Tips for Spring Cleaning
I’m not an expert on this topic, but as a gypsy I can tell you how nice it is to not be bogged down with sh—- stuff I really don’t need.
As you have seen, recently I’ve been doing some major cleansing. This process involves more wine than green juice, which makes it more tolerable.
Now that I’m done, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. ...

Car freshener under your seat
Deodorant when you’re desperate
Insect repellant
A Pin cushion
Spot remover
Good to know.

The Spring Cleaning Sale starts at 12pm EST.
Final day of posting.
Up on the block: Ferragamo shoes, a couple of great dresses, and some jewelry.
Don’t worry, it’s not going to be another all day affair.
I was going to put it up now, but since it’s first come first serve, I want to be fair to my west coast readers.
See you at 12!
Sale ends for today but more tomorrow
Wow, you guys are on the ball! Which makes it so much easier for me.
I deleted everything that sold. And I’ll tell you, the pieces that are left are awesome too. These pics just don’t do the cuts justice.
I’ll probably put up a few more things tonight so check back in tomorrow morning.
You guys made this so much fun for me. Thank you!

Apologies to my male followers
