Dapper Dads and Fashionable Fathers Share Their Summer Style Tips

July 26, 2019

Before I got married, black t-shirts and blue jeans were my go-to. I had about 5 sets of each and they always looked good, I thought. I’ve since learned a few tips thanks to my wife, my daughter, and Queer Eye being on Netflix (I French Tuck all the time now). My personal style is a mix of smart shirts that I can wear to work and hard-wearing while being comfortable enough to wear day-to-day. If they’re wife-approved, then even better! My favourite brands are either local or ...

Don’t Waste Your Photos on Instagram

May 31, 2019

My phone is full of photos and it’s a huge waste. Back when I bought my phone, I chose that specific device because it had the best camera of them all. For the times when I want to take extra special photos, I take my camera with me and use that instead. Once the photos are taken, I edit ...

A Keurig Morning (and a giveaway!)

May 17, 2019

Giving Feels Good – with Catelli
