Ways to bring all the boys to your yard..

While driving in my car today, I was rocking out to the oldies (don't judge) and "It's not unusual" came on the radio and I was quickly reminded of the infamous dance by Carlton Banks on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Naturally, I began a solo dance party in my car, this occurs often because if my previous blogs haven't informed you or you decided not to read those (shame on you) I am a fairly shameless individual and I find a car dance party always necessary. The car next to me started laughing and dancing too-- my windows and sunroof were open (with the air conditioning on-- I believe in wasting as much money as possible) and there was a quick stop light dance party with the man next to me.


This spur-of-the-moment dance party gave me inspiration to formulate a list on how you too can pick up hot babes without even trying. Below you will find a list on some sweet ways, I am not numbering this list because I have no idea how many ideas i'll punch out & I'm not guaranteeing, SQUAT!

1. Dance, Dance, Dance! When you're in 'da club the best way to get a hottie with a body to approach you is simply to whip out some sweet moves. They'll totally approach you because they will want to know how and where you learn those killer dance steps. Below are some of my favs:

As I mentioned before this is a CLASSIC and any boy would be delighted to see you mastered this 90's fave. 

  Would you judge me if I told you I actually did at some point (and hopefully still do) know every single move in this dance? What is hotter than a choreographed routine by your Liger Loving Stud? You don't know it? .... Idiot. 

Lastly, the running man. Because, why wouldn't you?

2. After you have laid all your game out on the table, by showing off your dance moves, he'll be sure to be on you like white on rice. The next thing you should do is this: talk about your future together. Guys love the idea of commitment and won't even consider anything at the next level with you until they can picture themselves marrying you. So you should probably tell them how excited you are for your future and how great your kids will be. Don't say I didn't warn you when he doesn't ask you out because you forgot this important step in the process. 

3. When he takes you out on a date to a nice restaurant next be sure to ask him why he didn't text you back when you texted him and ask him what he is doing not this monday, not the next monday, not the monday after that one, or the monday after that one, or the monday after that one, or the monday after that one, but that next monday. Guys love planning things out way in advanced especially with someone they just met and already know has a great image of their future together.

4. Insult his friends. We've all heard the phrase.. Bros before Hoes? It's a bunch of bologna. Guys will always pick their girl over his friends, especially when you insult them and put them down constantly, especially when they are perfectly nice to you. Don't say anything if you don't have anything nice to say, not true.. if you've got things to say about his best friend since 5th grade that he likes to play golf with after a week of work, but you wanted him to come with you to shop for a new bedside table lamp, it's totally appropriate to insult his friends and beg him to come with you until he gives in. 

5. Measure him up to all your friend's boyfriends. Make sure you tell him how Lilly's boyfriend, Mark got her a David Yurman Bracelet for their 3 week and 2 day anniversary and you feel like that is an appropriate and/or mandatory present for your 3 hour anniversary. Guys love being compared to your friend's boyfriends and it doesn't bother them at all, in fact it inspires them to work hard to come up with creative new ways to impress you.

And that's all I've got for you.... So now you are sitting hear stumped saying, Oh Mackenzie, I've tried these all and none of them worked. Well this is a fool proof system and if it didn't work for you, you obviously just are a lost cause and should give up dating all together.

Good Luck.

Diary of a bad wardrobe

Ladies & Gentlemen,

I am writing you this letter to apologize for my lack of bloggage. Life has been crazy in the A and I have been attempting to keep up. I feel a lot of pressure to make this blog entry of interest as I know all of you have been eagerly awaiting my postings-- sitting, starring at the computer, screaming "WHEN MACKENZIE, WHEN?" With that being said.... here is your post. Laugh even when it's not funny, thanks.

But really, What has been going on with me....? Hmmm..Well Tuesday night I attended the Katy Perry concert. Probably one of the greatest concerts I have EVER been to.. and let me tell you I have been to the cream of the crop. For example: I have been to Nsync (x2), Backstreet Boys (x2) and ......... The TRL Tour featuring: Destiny's Child, O-Town, Nsync, etc (I lost my throat for 3 weeks after this concert, due purely to screaming..."MARRY ME JUSTIN!!!!!").

Anyway, so Katy Perry concert... the outfits people wore were INSANE! I thought I'd be Katy Perryesque so I wore my brand new Steven Madden Glitter Pumps and bright red lip stick.. which I thought was wild. However, once I arrived at Gwinnett Arena and was surronded by K.P. Fans, I looked like I came straight out of a L.L. Bean catalog. There was fishnets, short shorts (on men), wigs of all color, sequins bras, bra-less people and more.. In a situation like that it is easy to go straight from just accepting what they are wearing to judgement and say "Like OH EMM GEE, What the eff.. is she wearing??" But after my initial judgement surpassed I began thinking about it all and realized how I truly envied their confidence to wear things that they loved and didn't care what some preppy blonde chick in sparkly shoes was thinking of her.

Yellow Hat Meets the World

So I started thinking back on my own life and started thinking about clothes I LOVED and if I had the confidence enough to wear them what I would still be wearing. I'd be pretty unfortunately dressed-- but I'd secretly love everything I was wearing. Ready for the embarrassing list? I am going to begin with my favorite bright yellow polartec hat. LOVED this hat-- I wore it on almost every single vacation and it makes it's appearance all throughout the awkward stages in my life. However, awkward for me was about 3rd - 10th grade, but many would still argue even today. However, this hat surfaced my wardrobe circa 1996/1997 or so. I ended up getting made fun of by my friend, name has been removed for safety reasons and so I told my mom I'd never wear it again. Every time my friends see the picture of me in this hat on my photo board in my apartment, I pull the quick "Oh gosh that hat is horrible, why would my mom do that to me?" but really all I'm thinking about is A. Where I can find another one and B. When that thing was thrown away.


My second favey? These hit the black top of Westbriar Elementary in the peak of my awkwardness in 4th grade. My high heeled black and white sketcher tennis shoe heels. Can I tell you the fit I threw for my mom to buy these for me? I LOVED THEM! I wore them with everything.. my overall jean shorts, white shorts with high white socks and the sketcher heel/tennis shoes, my winnie the pooh jean jumper.. I think I was quite the fashionista. However, my friends made fun of them and said they were weird, and slowly I started to question my sneaks and was in about as large of a dilemma a 4th grade girl could be in! Anyway these shoes had to be retired when I tripped down the stairs during a fire drill and caused a traffic jam/ 3 person pile up and they were classified as a fire hazard.

Then I began thinking back to my friends from school and thinking about the stuff that they wore that I made fun of and I decided to contribute my blog to apologize: Brittany, I am sorry for making fun of your bangs and jean jumper dress you wore on the first day of 6th grade. Renae, I am sorry I made fun of your Aeropostale t-shirt and hair from 9th grade and that I still have your yearbook picture in my wallet and I routinely send you pictures of it laughing.. (i love you). Laura, I am sorry I threw away clothes in your closet all through college and made fun of your sweater vest and star wars t-shirt collection (even though, i'm really not sorry I threw away the stuff I threw out.. you totally appreciate it too).

Basically the point of all this is just wear whatever you freaking feel like. Wear your jean overalls, fishnet tights, floppy hats with sunglasses (my parents hated me) or your sketcher high heels. You only live once and wouldn't you rather be known as that person that wore what they wanted than what every one else wanted them to wear? Also, if anyone sees a polartech yellow baseball cap in the store, please.. CALL ME!

YOUR TURN: I turn the blog to you, what clothing do you wish you could secretly wear but are shunned due to fears of ridicule? This is a judgement free blog post-- so post away
