I call June the Month of Man around here.  Not only is it Father’s Day, but it is my husband’s birthday–so the month is chock- full of celebrating and gifting and paying homage.

I had requests for a Men’s picks from StyleBlueprint for this month and I was happy to comply.  Now if I could only not let my husband read any of these until the end of the month, then we are golden.

 

1.  lululemon Boxer Brief (without the fly)–sold at Pure Barre.

At $24 a pop, these boxer briefs might be hard to justify.  Considering that most men’s entire underwear collection is not worth $24, a woman is going to have to buy these.  But, my friend says her husband has thrown out all his other underwear and it just focusing on these.  The monogamous lululemon male has converted other followers, so there is something to this.

 

 

 

 

 

2.  Pocket square–Sold at Rhodes and the Kentucky Derby Museum gift shop

Vineyard Vines “Little Bits” pocket square.

It is too hot for a tie, we understand.  Let’s think outside the tie.  A pocket square weighs nothing, does not make you hot, but adds a everything to your outfit.  A new way to wear a summer suit.

3. Mustache knick-knacks–Sold at Scout

Handlebar mustache wine opener

Mustache chip clips

Have you noticed that all the younger fellows are sporting facial hair now?  Mustaches and beards are chic.  Scout has a collection of fun mustache gifts sure to please your facially haired man.

4. Sanuks–sold at Quest Outdoors and Buckle (Mall St. Matthews)

Sanuks Sidewalk Surfer in Jute

“Coo coo ka cho, this is not a shoe.”  If you are afraid of mandals, this shoe is your summer option.  Especially handy if your man will not get a pedicure.  This website is hilarious, it is everything my husband is not; regardless, the shoes are fantastic.

5. Stainless steel wallet by Stewart Stand–sold at Scout and The Shop at the Brown

Stewart Stand stainless steel wallet at Scout

Made by Stewart Stand, this beautifully designed ultra-thin wallet is made totally of stainless steel woven into a fine mesh.  Made to ward off scanner theft from evil people trying to scan your credit card information, it keeps your cards safe and sound.  While I don’t understand how anyone can scan your card from afar, it is a good reason to buy this.

6. Shaving kit from L’Occitane–Sold at L’Occitane, Oxmoor Mall

L’occitane shaving set

This kit is what I would describe as an old-fashioned shave.  It includes the circular bar soap, in the metal soap dish and the brush.  Lather, shave and rinse….and, like everything in this store,  it smells great.

Have some more suggestions?  Comments so I can have an arsenal of ideas….
