I'm super selective when it comes to my swimwear, but this hasn't stopped me from creating quite the collection over the years. I enjoy a great slim fit that it several inches above the knee. I tend to not like a longer length, because it just doesn't suit my body right. Needless to say, I get plenty of jabs from my family about my choices in short swimwear haha. Oh well!

URBAN COWBOY
Alright, alright, alright. This week's look is a bit of a rare sight. Occasionally I will embrace my southern roots by incorporating more country pieces into my outfits. Now obviously, I'll throw my on spin on it by bringing in some urban flare or street style to the deep south. Just because I don't wear it often, doesn't mean I cant rock my camo or in this case a Carhartt work jacket.

ZEPPELIN ON VALENTINE'S DAY
REAL TALK: RESOLUTIONS AND RESTORATION FROM SOMEONE WITH ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION
2016 was a pretty rough year for me all around. I was experiencing some financial stress and other core-shaking problems centered around rejection and failure. This wasn't a huge surprise, considering I am pursuing a career in acting. I can't tell you how accurate the title "starving artist" is when it comes to pursuing something as inconsistent and fleeting as an acting career. I was balancing multiple part time jobs, one of which was very physically demanding, and doing whatever I had to do to get by.

POST CARDS FROM NEW YORK CITY
This was my second time to the Big Apple and New York welcomed me back like an old friend. That is, if that said friend was throwing massive shade and giving me the cold shoulder. Haha. It was absolutely freezing the two days we spent in the city, but that made it no less enjoyable. In fact, the cold actually made for an all around better "Christmassy" feel. That was probably what I was most excited about: Christmas time in New York City.

CAMERAS ON MY CAMO
Anyway, I have had a massive opportunity come up recently and that is to be a brand ambassador for American Eagle! American Eagle is one of those brands that has grown with me from middle school all the way up until my 20s. They have always been one of my go-toos for clothing and style inspiration. I am super excited to be bringing you a few looks I've put together from several pieces that they have been kind enough to send me.

CHILDREN OF THE CORN 2.0
Sometimes you just need a day in a corn maze with your best friends. This past weekend I was determined to get out of Atlanta and escape alot of the stress I was dealing with and just enjoy a day with Lacey and Michael. Ever since October, I have been dying to go to a corn maze and just be all kinds of "fall goals". Luckily my friends let me drag them along and we had a pretty dope time. Unfortunately, the corn was past season so it wasn't edible, but that didn't stop us from trying. Haha. It was a beautiful day filled with laughing and plenty of "corn puns" as you probably could have guessed.

ARMY GREEN IN NOVEMBER
The color of November is army green and I am loving it. I've had this military jacket for several years and have only recently been wearing it with everything. It has the versatility of a denim jacket, with a different color that is perfect for the Fall and Winter. I paired it with some super stretchy denim and my go-to brown boots for a super simple every day look.

DENIM WEEKENDS + ROOFTOP HANGOUTS
Thankfully, it has been cooling off in the evenings here in Georgia. So for my look I brought out my Vintage Levis jacket that is from my dad that I hand painted a while back; paired with some black denim and a some other rustic pieces for a modern/casual look that is slightly verging on an "urban cowboy". Haha! I was totally channeling Freddy from the Scooby Doo gang with this black bandanna, tied as an ascot around my neck. Hope you like it!

90'S STREET STYLE LOOK
Casual OOTD from a day spent walking and exploring around Atlanta. This look is definitely inspired by my mom and her love for the 80's as well as my love for 90's fashion. I'm all about bringing in decades past into my everyday looks. I love how modern meets old with these acid wash jeans, a neutral flannel, and some kicks from Aldo. I kept everything pretty dark and neutral so it wasn't too awfully obnoxious.

A GENTLEMAN'S TROVE UNBOXING & REVIEW
I'm super grateful to A Gentlemans's Trove for reaching out to me for a gift box review. I was really excited to work with them since, like me, they are based out of Atlanta. Definitely check them out here for some great gift ideas for any man in your life. If you know me, you'll be aware of how picky I am with my hair. I've gone to the same hair dresser for over 10 years and am terrified at the thought of another person doing it. Shout out to Mrs. Jessica Cobb for keeping my hair looking great for so long! I was super excited about getting my hands on the 'Bearded Gent' gift box on account of the amazing hair products it came with. Now I know your thinking, "But Dillan, you don't have a beard?"
