Boyfriend edition

Today my awesome boyfriend and I went shopping together. I have a boyfriend who likes to shop. It's a grand world we live in.
Zack only likes to shop for himself when he's on a mission. He wants to have certain items that he's looking for. Today's main goal was pants.
I introduced him to slimmer fitting jeans awhile ago, which work so much better for his tall and slim build, plus I think they're far more flattering anyway. Zack wanted to find some dress pants that were slim fitting like his levis. A quick stop in Express and we emerged with two pairs of dress slacks and a pair of black jeans. Success.
Yes, he agreed to be my guest on this blog today to show off the suit he put together for a music gig tomorrow night in Las Vegas. Then he wanted to try on his new jeans again.

*Edit: I've been using photobucket to upload photos. It's cropping the photos from the right in this post and I'm not really sure how to fix it. Is it just the display on my computer? For example, the second to last photo is supposed show both feet, but it cropped it down to one.

Of course, we didn't spend all day looking at stuff for him. I fell in love with some oxfords:

Can't wait to wear these. An older guy who was sitting in the shoe department and reading a newspaper commented that they were "cute" and "flattering" and "got his attention." Either this means they are totally awesome or I will be picking up old men.

  1. Snazzy! I love Express; it's the best. And of course the Converse. I try to get Drew to go shopping every once in a while, but usually he just doesn't want to spend the money. Hopefully this means we'll balance each other out in future financial situations though..

    I love the oxfords!

    Are you uploading your photos through the URL thing on blogger or using image codes? If it's the latter, you can try resizing them on photobucket; they might just be too big.

  2. After you upload your photos, resize them. I usually do 400 px for the smaller dimension. But you might have to play around with a few different sizes to see what displays best on your page.

    Buuuut....yay for boyfriend guest posts! And yes, Zach does look quite excited about the new pants. And that's a nice portrait shot of him, with the Andrew Bird tee. Not sure if you cropped it like that on purpose or not, but I like how it breaks up the photo more.

    Anddddd...lovely shoes. Can't blame the old man for appreciating. :)
