Apart from an actual bow tie, the best present you can give your man is the ability to tie one. This is were YouTube comes in handy. Thanks to Lucky, our ‘Cinch-it-down-sir’ (watch and you’ll see what I mean), your man will be dressed with flair looking slightly asymmetrical and sharp. Hot.

If you prefer diagrams, try this one. Maybe you can print it out and put it in the box with your pressie.

Head to Harrolds, or the Mens Department in either David Jones or Myer and track down a cheeky bow tie for your man. Classic black, or maybe something with a little more kick. Bring back the elegance.

But. Yesterdays beauty made my heart flutter. Columns of celebs. COLUMNS I SAY. Brilliant. And even better. All of them wearing something that you could wear in the current weather conditions here in menopausal-Melbourne. Take note. And if you have no idea what who what wear is. SUBSCRIBE you donkey.

But a pair of skinny toit-like-a-tiger leather pants. The real deal baby (as my Dad says). Check out these Sportygirl ones for $229.95 and the Claude Maus babies.

Now to set my alarm for a jog. Don’t think of the darkness that you’ll be jogging in. Just think of how beautiful the sun will be when you see it rise.

Someone once said to me that men with really bad legs play golf really well. So. I’ve decided that golf is the best way to tell if the new dude your seeing has good legs, without actually taking his pants off. Classy.

Ball + Stick + Hole. It’s the answer. It doesn’t have to be 18. Only nine. Or even just a bucket of balls. Gold gift. Great date. You’ll be able to judge his creativity when it comes to swearing. That, and cut straight to the bone of his personality. Patience is a virtue. Special when you take 2 hours to get ready.

Try Albert Park, Elstenwick or Bulleen for a bucket of balls. Burnley for some putting practice. Or one of the Top 50 Australian Golf Courses for a round.

Very therapeutic. As long as you connect. Crack. Whack.

April 77 Records are taking dancing pants to the next level. They’ve teamed up with bands that they love to help promote their music. Apart from churning out a wicked product . . what a savvy cross-promotional idea?

These 5-pocket straight leg jean with a regular waist and buttonfly comes in unisex sizes 24-36. Music to my ears. Super hot light grey denim. Cool as hell. Check out the single that comes with them by Rodeo Massacre. Love.

If you’re cruising through France you can pick up their gear in Paris or Bordeaux stores. However, if you are not so international try Grace in Melbourne. Dobry Den in Sydney and Violent Green in Brisvegas.

Or, just spend time with your dog. That’ll make you happy too. Or your cat, fish, budgie  . . . blue-tongue lizard. Whatever.

This one time not-the-real-Kenny posted my WHOLE handbag back to me. He found it hanging on the tow bar of the port-a-loos. Another time I lost it for a year. Bring briiiiing. Then I got a call. ‘Hello My name’s Blah Blah and I’m the manager of the Royal Mail up here at Dunkheld. We’re revegetating the garden and we’ve found your wallet’. Boomerang.

Other times I’ve not been so lucky. But I’ve found a solution. The paper wallet. Neatly held together by a plastic fork. Helloooo boys!!! Fabo.

Benny T introduced me to this stroke of genius at the bar on Sat night. As you can see by the surrounding shot glasses. So clever right now. Observe. Adopt.
