She liked it, so she put a ring on it

Rosewood wedding ring with turquois inlay  (priceless)
Hot Pink and Gold watch by Michael Kors (Too much!)


Blue Suit from Goodwill ($19.99)
 Burgundy captoe brogue oxfords "Strand" by Allen Edmonds ($45 on Ebay)

  
Blue Floral Tie from Goodwill ($2)   White and Pink Patterned shirt by American Living ($10) 
White Pocket Square with Blue Edging from TheTieBar.com ($8)


 Out of everything I own, I love my wedding band the most. It not only shows my love and dedication to my wife but it also looks FREAKING SWEET (in my opinion).  As you can imagine, I could not go with a standard wedding band.  A friend showed my a similar ring that was actually metal with wood and turquois inlay but I decided on going all wood and fell in love with this one made of rosewood with turquois. It did cost more than most wedding bands but I am going to wear it everyday for the rest of my life so I felt that it was well worth the cost. It was actually custom made by a company on ETSY.

I have been looking for this hot pink and gold Michael Kors watch  for quite some time and had to get it once I finally found it for sale.  It certainly is a show stopper.

I prefer bowties but there is something to be said for a nice cotton floral tie and this one is my absolute favorite. I like it even better because I got it for $2 from the Goodwill.

Recently I've been trying to branch out and mix and match patterns and I feel that I've been having some pretty good luck with it.  The trick is having varying sizes and designs with colors that compliment each other. This shirt has small pink and blue interlocking squares and the tie has a large floral pattern that has pink in the flowers.  While it doesn't always work, mixing patterns can really separate the "men from the boys."
