Mad Men

I have an obsessive nature. I get my mind on something and remain in a hypnotic trance until the fixation is completed. Right now I am dying for a Taylor Swift/ Seane Corn perm. Know any good perm specialists? I asked my mom if she thought I could find a perm specialist in the Long Beach/ Los Angleles region and she flippantly chuckled and replied well I am pretty darn sure there's nobody out there doing perms all day long since I haven't spotted a bird's nest on someone under the age of 82 in the last twenty years. Clearly, she is not gung-ho about the idea.

I will most likely find some hair stylist willing to risk their reputation and give it a go on my nappy head of blond dried out, split ended, over processed damaged hair (since my regular hair stylist wide-eyed gave me a big no way Jose.) Then a month later I will have my tail tucked between my legs and come to my mom saying why didn't you stop me, don't ever let me do this again!! Just like when I had the bright idea that cornrows would definitely work, a big Borat, NOT!!!

So this brings me to this last month when I became obsessed with becoming a spin instructor. My poor little car drove every freeway in So. Cal going to multiple spin classes to spy on different techniques of instructors. I ,of course, made a long four hour trip to San Luis Obispo to take the certification because there was no possibility I could wait an entire month to take the same class in Los Angeles. Two weeks later.... I haven't even made a playlist of songs to audition to get the job... but I do have a beautifully signed certification (anyone need private lessons, I have reduced recession roll back rates!?!)

While in San Louis Obispo I went to the movies, in all my downtime the night before, I saw the movie Crazy Stupid Love. Let me just tell you Ryan Gosling is so hot he could steam up a sauna. I took three weeks of an intro to film class this summer (that I dropped) and ya the mise-en-scene, editing, acting, sound, narrative, yada yada yada were good, but the only thing that I cared about was Ryan Gosling's steel abs and most importantly his impeccable apparel. Wardrobe really had their head on straight for that movie.

 I personally believe an exquisite suit can land a job at any dream company. It transforms you into someone else. Your Clark Kent personality instantly becomes Superman easily able to conquer all. This is what Ryan Gosling's character does as he renews and revamps Steve Carrel turning him into a never thought possible lady's catch.

 Styling a men's wardrobe requires few articles. However, it is an investment and investments require capital. If you purchase a quality suit I promise it will be worth it. One of men's many advantages is the convenience of wearing the same outfit again and again. Nobody will notice the repetition only the fact that man do you look powerful in that gorgeous suit. I also suggest laying down a little cash for a decent hair cut (no at-home buzzes) and a pair of quality shoes. That's it! We women have to buy countless ensembles, over-priced purses, spend buckets every 6-weeks on our hair, wax nearly every hair on our body, polish every nail, and cover every eye bag. You just purchase a suit and call it a day(more like year).

Banana Republic released their new line Mad Men today. I highly recommend their 1960's esque collection including suits, vests, pants, ties, and fedora hats. If you are anywhere near resembling Steve Carrel post-divorce pre-renovation then I suggest you head down to the nearest Banana Republic and do yourself a favor and invest in the new you. A promotion might be headed your way if you do.
