    - don’t be afraid of V-necks or sweater vests
    - wear clothes that fit you, anything too big or too small will make you look like a poorly dressed child
    - invest in tailoring and dry cleaning, it will make you much happier in the long-run

    - If you want to get drunk, always play a game to achieve it.
    - If the girl doesn’t want to be with you, she doesn’t want to be with you.. Get over it.
    - Don’t try and one up a retard, they always win.

    When someone criticizes you, don’t get offended. Consider it thoughtfully, and if it’s worth your time, thank the person for pointing it out. If it’s not, smile and continue as you are.

    Some knee-jerk offerings:

    Beer should never be chosen by carb content.

    Learn your city’s shortcuts.

    When in doubt on jeans, Levi’s 501s never disappoint.

    Take a cross-country road trip and get off an interstate at least once.

    Never be a fairweather fan. If you’re in, commit.

    Find a good dive bar and make it your own.

    Know the difference between white and red zinfandel.

    Quality is worth paying for. And you’ll throw out far less stuff.

    Wait tables as your main means of income for at least a month. You’ll never tip badly again.

    Leave nature as you found it.

    If you give your word, deliver.

    Cologne should be dabbed, not dispensed.

    It’s ok to experiment with mind-altering substances. Just don’t get in the habit.

    Whatever your kids want you to see that moment is always more important than what you are doing.

    Smile. It’ll keep them guessing AND it looks better on you than any accessory will.

    Never be afraid to speak or approach any girl/woman.

    Because even if it turns out that she isn’t interested she wasn’t before you tried either but you tried and are no where but where you started out, losing nothing. But if she is interested, you didn’t lose the chance to find out.

    Nothing is ever gained by bringing someone else down.

    Don’t hesitate to share the credit.

    I must say while i like your blog,you post infrequently and when you do post, your posts consist of parties that you’ve been to or some kind of giveaway. I thought you wanted to keep your readers in the know of everything fashionable and fabulous. Kinda Lame.

    There are signs everywhere. Use them.

    Like it or hate it, never say you don’t care. But try not to hate.

    First impressions are important, but don’t worry. Sometimes it’s meeting someone a second time that sparks a connection.

    Calloused hands are not the only means of telling if you’ve built something.

    Sometimes there are no answers, let alone right ones or wrong ones.

    If he can walk away… let him.

    Some of mine, which my grandfather taught me. They look better in Russian, but:
    * Always ask out any girl/woman which you TRULY like. Trust me – she will have no chance to resist that feeling in you.
    * Don’t waste your brainpower on thinking what others may think of you.
    * Never let go your unfinished work.
    * Study/science is done best on an empty tomach.
    * When in doubt to do or not to do – always DO.
    * Don’t say bad things about yourself – your friends will do that for you.
    * Once decided – start doing immediately
    * When convinced somebody in an argument – stop, don’t push him/her into a corner.
    And the last one:
    * Some say that cognac smells like forest bugs, others that forest bugs smell like cognac. Be the second type.

    Attract the ladies by:
    Approaching the girl first with confidence.
    Opening doors for her.
    Smiling at her.

    Style: Shave your beard please.

    Anything can look good with confidence.

    Mom was right… Keep your nails clean.

    - When you’re wrong admit it.

    - Less talk; more action.

    Always have a go bag packed, sometimes you just need to go.

    Nina, guilty as charged. Work/life commitments have kept me away, but also, I’ll be the first to admit that I overthink blog posts, attempting to build them into a “story”…that often don’t get written! I promise to be better, and I know yall will let me know if I’m not.

    Never ask for a woman’s phone number. If she likes you, she’ll offer it.
