PEOPLE Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive: Follow Up

Writing the posts for PEOPLE's Magazine Annual Sexiest Man Alive issue has been the most fun I have had in the blog world in a LONG time! I say that because getting to really interact with so many of you seriously warms my heart! I LOVED reading your comments, getting your tweets and even texts about the Sexiest Man.

So without further ado!

This year's People's Sexiest Man Alive is...
#NOTRYANGOSLING
(this is my hash-tag that I used on Twitter and Instagram. I think it's funny) 

 I mean, WHY?!?! He is SO damn SEXY! Robbed TWO years in a row!

While it may seem that I am SAD about Ryan not winning I am NOT COMPLAINING that this year's winner is...

CHANNING TATUM

If Ryan had to lose to someone, Channing is a good man to lose to! This man has been HOT, HOT, HOT all year long. And I am not just talking about his looks! He has had so many movies come out, he produced and inspired his movie, 'Magic Mike' and he comes across as humble and EXTREMELY likeable. I always enjoy watching him do press! PLUS he can dance and has a body that won't quit. 

Were you all as pleased as I was?

After picking up my issue at my local CVS I headed straight (I drove, no running like I previously mentioned. Haha!) to Chipotle to eat and DROOL read the issue! I sat there for minute just taking in all of the pictures and sighing happily! Then I Instagrammed the pic below and might have mentioned how LUCKY I am to read and blog about sexy men. This is my life! Love it!

I flipped right to Channing's article. Well I looked at his photo spread THEN read the article but you totally understand why, right? Then I flipped through the whole #SexiestManAlive section. I LOVED how the broke up some of their segments! "Fifty Shades of Grey" showcasing the Silver Haired Foxes of Hollywood. "Celeb 'Staches" featuring our favorites with some facial hair. "Hot Dogs" showing off the relationships between Man and Man's best friend! My most favorite pics are featured below.

 Top Left: I LOVE this pic of Channing. But I really loved that he loves to sing and dance around the house with his wife. Loving, Cute, Sexy and just too adorable. What I wouldn't do to be a fly on their walls!
Top Right: TOO. MUCH. HOTNESS. All on one page. From my crush on Jake and his manly ruggedness paired with the bluest of eyes, to my eternal crush on the debonair George Clooney AND my LOVE for Country Music being represented by hottie Blake Shelton; I just about died when I saw this page!
Bottom Left: My ten year old self just about SQUEALED (or I literally did. In public) at this pic of NKOTB looking just as hot as I remembered and rocking the 'staches like NO OTHER. So happy!
Bottom Right: My man has some swag! Looking stylish as ever. Ryan and his pup are truly darling.

Channing has an entire year (and really, the rest of his life) to embrace this title. He is added to a long list of the most beautiful men! I hope that you will all head out and pick up the issue! It is a good one.

PEOPLE Magazine's Annual Sexiest Man Alive

It should come as NO surprise to any of you that I have a little bit of an obsession with celebrities. I should clarify that I really obsess over their style. This blog started out with me sharing looks and outfits that celebrities wore and somehow transitioned into a personal style blog with speckles of celebrity placed in every now and then. A majority of the focus was on women's style but I have never been afraid to touch on men's style and some extremely stylish men! I have blogged about the Ryan's (Gosling, Reynolds, Seacrest), Channing Tatum, Joshua Jackson, Zac Efron and even Kingston Rossdale. I mean, you guys, I even have a Pinterest board dedicated to Men's Style (for dressing my next BOYFRIEND) and an entire board dedicated to Ryan Gosling himself! So anytime that I have to devour a magazine, one of the first I reach for is PEOPLE magazine. I used to buy every single issue when I traveled for work. For three years you would find PEOPLE magazine in my work tote. Now you can just find it in my bathroom or next to my bed! They have the best mix of real life, gossip and style pictures. I LOVE seeing candid pics to see how celebs dress on their down time, BUT I DIE over the "pretty" ensembles they wear to premieres and events. I guess I just love seeing them dressed! PEOPLE magazine just gets it and are truly legit! I obviously say that because every celeb gives them the exclusive on Weddings, Babies and Real Life events first! And since I am friends with all the celebs I can say that. Haha! ;)

Bradley Cooper: Last year's winner

 I am a lover of men, and their bodies, so one of my favorite issues is the Annual Sexiest Man Alive issue. Who wouldn't love to drool over pages and pages of men that look amazing, work hard AND inspire? My number one man, Ben Affleck (who has made numerous appearances on the blog that never got labeled. OOPS!), was named the Sexiest Man Alive in 2002. It is always my hope that he is one of the few to be named Sexiest Man twice! Realistically I know it probably won't happen this year. So I have to guess that my male style crush, who is pretty damn SEXY, Ryan Gosling will be named the Sexiest Man this year! I would not be sad if Garrett Hedlund, Zac Efron or Jake Gyllenhaal was named the sexiest man either! Now you know my top five list! The issue is out on the newsstands on November 15th. I will be running (literally?) to the store to pick it up! Make sure to get your copy quickly as it is only on stands for TWO weeks!

Tuesday Travel Style {49}

I have not been on a plane in almost a year. Kind of blows me away when I used to be on a plane 2-3 times a week for three years! I had to drop my sister off at LAX last night and it made me a little nostalgic. While I do not miss my crazy, stressful job...I DO miss the people, relationships and experiences that I was given. 

Airport style is truly the best. You get to see all gametes of style (and lack there of). I honestly could sit in an airport for hours and people watch. I always made up stories in my head about the people that I saw. And while the everyday person can be pretty stylish, celebs still set the bar high for their travel style.

This couple is beyond stylish. They are completely gorgeous, seem incredibly in love and rock the best duds!

Where do I start? 

Let's talk about the hotness that Channing Tatum is. He has a quirky style and can pull it off. I love his stripes, fedora, suspenders and well fitting jeans. And man bag??? He isn't afraid to rock it. ;) It is the perfect and easy ensemble for travel.

Miss Jenna is the cutest. I love that she dresses with a casual flair and makes looks appear so effortless. She is on trend by mixing prints AND wearing a floral scarf (makes me want to run out and find that exact scarf). Paired with a utility jacket, jeans and aviators makes for a perfectly casual chic look.

These two travel in Style.

Love them!

Men's Style

I just love men, don't you?

Seeing a well dressed man is rare but when I do I pretty much drool.

I saw 'The Vow' over the weekend and Channing Tatum wears sweaters through the whole movie. After seeing how he dressed I vowed to only buy sweaters for the next guy I date. Holy Hotness.

Since I am OBSESSED with Pinterest (do I keep mentioning that? Sorry! oops.) I have a board dedicated to Men's Style. I wanted to share a few favorite looks with you all.

What is your favorite looks on {your} man?

Do you have any style deal breakers when it comes to your guy or men you date?

Channing Tatum

I love the Henley Tee and blazer. a great way to be casual yet make a statement. Also, the second pic is only one example of an awesome sweater look. :)

 Kellen Lutz

I love how he "accessorized" and dressed up a pair of good fitting jeans.

Ryan Reynolds

I LOVE his suit style. The vest and tailored coat makes my heart pitter patter.

Ryan Gosling

No one does cool and casual like Ryan. I think the main reason why I love him so much is that his style is unbelievable. He looks good in anything whether it be a simple white tee and boots or rocking a leather jacket or an impeccably tailored suit.

Zac Efron

Zac is a newer crush for me. He all of sudden got SO SO SO H-O-T!!!

I love a good flannel and beanie, and I love his Chambray button up and colored denim. He is totally stylish!

Hope you enjoyed the eye candy! ;)

AND that you have a stronger appreciation for Men's Fashion.

Which look is your fav??

 

Eighty seven: Newbie Fashionista

It is so refreshing when an upcoming starlet comes into their own, in their fashion sense at least. Jenna Dewan Tatum is married to one of the hottest men, Channing Tatum. I think that they are such a darling couple. And I LOVED what she wore to the Dear John premiere in London.

She is absolutely beautiful. I think that the cut of the dress is interesting, the pockets are fun and different and pairing it with opaque black tights was a great twist. I wish I had seen what shoes she wore. And check out her hubby! They are both eye candy!
