Crazy Comfortable Socks by Kentwool

September 6, 2014 By Kevin Ekmark

Kentwool Socks

I recently picked up golfing again after a few years away from the links. Getting back into the game has been a fun and slightly embarrassing experience. My family and friends who play have been more than patient with me as I shake off some rust. One of the big reasons that I enjoy the game, despite my skill level, is that it's fairly relaxing. Over the past few weeks, I have put Kentwool's new socks to the test on and off the course. And yes... I even wore them at Top Golf Atlanta. Here's what … [Read more...]

Fashion Debate: The two+seven Girls Talk Travel Bags For Him

November 14, 2013 By Hillary Byers and Dana Beckley of two+seven

If you’ve read my previous post, I must point out that the peacoat debacle is only one of many fashion-related issues I have with my main squeeze. While packing for our trip to New York City, I couldn’t help but laugh at the bags he threw together: a worse-for-wear Georgia Tech sports bag, zip-locks for toiletries and an old high school backpack. I get it—it's convenient, use what you have. But wouldn’t he prefer more stylish, grown-up options? I will definitely be passing these ideas on to him … [Read more...]

Breaking Bad Habits & Buying Peacoats

November 1, 2013 By Hillary Byers and Dana Beckley of two+seven

Band Of Outsiders - Bergdorf Goodman Having lived in New York City for five years and loving fashion all my life, I’d like to think I know a thing or two about style. My born-and-bred Georgia man, however, is a different story. His sense of fashion revolves around three things: what his mom buys him, what his friends wear and what is comfortable. All valid factors—for a college student. Needless to say, it was time for me to intervene. With dipping temps and our impending trip up north, an … [Read more...]

Spring/Summer Essentials: Costa Del Mar

May 14, 2013 By Spencer

Spring is probably my favorite time of the year to live in Georgia. Baseball season is in full swing, the pollen is receding and Atlanta's population is flocking to the multitude of porches and outdoor festivals around the city. All of this outdoor fun makes a good pair of sunglasses an essential part of your wardrobe. Lucky for me, Costa Del Mar asked if I would review their new "Cut" frames. I know Costa has a stellar reputation for making quality sunglasses for fisherman and sportsmen, so I … [Read more...]

What to Wear to…Summer Concert(s)

July 1, 2012 By Caroline Fontenot

My husband and I were sitting on our front porch the other night, sippin' beers, eagerly discussing the Coldplay concert we'll be attending. Will they play "Fix You?" Will I dance the entire time? Will Rihanna make a surprise guest apparence causing me to scream like a little girl? What will we wear? Uh oh. What will we wear? Thus, this post was born. I haven't attended a concert in an arena since I saw Bruce Springsteen in college, and God only knows what I wore among all the middle aged … [Read more...]

What to Wear to…The Water

May 31, 2012 By Caroline Fontenot

The beach, the lake, the river, the pool, the...slip 'n slide? If it's got water, it's time we're in it, folks. Personally, I love a short inseam on swim trunks, 5'' being perfect on just about every guy (in my opinion). Though, if you're brave enough to sport a 4'', you'll make me smile a very platonic smile as I admire your bravery and man thighs. And for the "bros" who spend most of their time on the water on a board of some sort, no, you don't have to shop at PacSun. Options for everyone, … [Read more...]
