November 1st, 2010

We know a lot of our loyal readers are growing sweet moustaches for Movember in support of prostate cancer awareness and fundraising. Good for you! We love charitable men!

However, moustaches can go one of two ways – awesome or awful. We want to guarantee that your moustache acts as a lady magnet, not lady repellant.

So here are a few guidelines for growing a great stache:

1. Decide what type of mustache looks best on you. Moustaches work with the size of the man’s face. Smaller faces need small mustaches. More striking, larger faces need larger or more prominent design.

2. Ask for help from a lady friend. Whether it’s your girlfriend, friend, sister, mom or favourite ifheonlyknew.com contributor…ask for help when it comes to picking the perfect stache design for your face. The best person to ask is a hairdresser, as they know what works with the angles and shape of your face best.

3. Daily maintenance is a must. Comb and trim every day to ensure your new facial friend is under control.

4. Styles. We say stick with a classic chevron moustache, as it’s our favourite and simplest look. Click HERE to check out other styles.

5. Whatever you do, please, do not add a flavour savour to your stache. You know that little bit of hair underneath your lower lip. That in itself will repel any woman, anywhere.

Good luck growing, gentlemen and remember to include the women in your life in the process. She can help you tend to your stache and keep it looking fresh, and of course she’ll...

QUICK AND EASY HALLOWEEN COSTUMES FOR YOU

October 29th, 2010

It’s October 29th, you have no idea what you’re going to dress up as for Halloween, but you’ve got your party plans set up! Have no fear, the women of www.ifheonlyknew.com are here, with quick and easy Halloween costumes!

The best part about these costumes is that you can use the same materials for each, so if you have a last minute costume change, you’re ready to go!

Here are 3 of easiest, yet surprisingly creative, costumes you can create using a simple white sheet.

1. Mummy – Grab some old white sheets, tear them into long strips and start wrapping. You may need a little help with the wrapping part, so phone a friend (preferably a female friend;).

2. Julias Ceasar – Wrap a white sheet around yourself to serve as a toga. Add a wreath of leaves worn around your head. Find a willing buddy to dress the same and follow you around with a dagger to pose as Brutus for an even more convincing costume.

3. Ghost – A classic! Cut two strategically places holes in an old white sheet and throw it over your head! Add streaks of lipstick for “blood stains” if you really want to get creative.

Some of our other favourites include:

Cabana Boy – White shirt, pants, and shoes. Throw a towel over your arm and grab a tray with drinks on it. Perhaps steal some fake tanner from your lady and you’ll look perfectly authentic!

McDreamy – Track down hospital scrubs, a stethascope and a name tag that reads ‘My name is McDreamy’. The ladies will love you!

Danny Zucko – Leather jacket, fitted white...

YOUR PERSONALITY = YOUR STYLE

October 29th, 2010

What category do you fall under?

Megan Close, of The Cross Design and Decor, is back with more interior decorating tips and tricks for every man! This week, find out how your personality reflects your design style! It’s scary how accurate she is!

When I first meet a new client I try to find out what their style is. This is achieved by looking at what their current home looks like, how they’re dressed, what their interests are and so on. This is specifically easy with Men. Men can be pretty simple : They really put it out there and what they say about their style is usually true. Most men prefer function over form but deep down really do care what their place looks like.

There are many types of guys out there but here are some quick tips if you happen to fall into one of these 5 categories:

The Corporate

Or The Suit Babe. You live a busy life. When you’re not working hard, you’re playing hard. It usually involves big parties and lots of friends. You like your home to be clean and simple. A contemporary classic design is best for you.

  • Paint colors - Charcoal Grey with Whites and blacks. Think of what you would wear to the office and translate this into a color scheme for your space. You should add small splashes of your preferred color (like your tie)
  • Furniture -Modern, clean lines and simple, high quality fabrics. Key pieces could include a clean lined sofa or sectional, a sleek leather side chair, large low coffee table and a long low console to hide all your...

WAY TO GO AUSTRALIA – BANNING ED HARDY

October 22nd, 2010

The land down under is clearly not a fan of Jersey Shore, or at least of the cast’s favourite designer – Ed Hardy. The city of Stonnington is fighting back against the wannabe UFC fighters of the world and banning the bedazzled t-shirts.

They’re announcement reads:

The City of Stonnington and Chapel St. Precinct hereby announce that Ed Hardy shall cease trading immediately.

Despite claims of financial troubles, Ed Hardy have actually contravened style and taste laws, and are no longer permitted within a 20km radius of Chapel St.

In turn, all you fuck-head Jersey Shore wannabes can go back to the suburbs, to spend the exorbitant amounts of cash you were going to use on bedazzled wifebeaters, on your illegitimate children instead.

Please do not return.

I didn’t know ‘fuck heads’ was an official term. They really mean business, so if you’re heading to Australia anytime soon don’t bring your bedazzler boys! However, we know none of our readers would dare be caught in Ed Hardy. You’re way to stylish for that!
