12 Sexy Things

THIS BLOG IS DEDICATED to my daughter, and I'm hoping she'll find it interesting one day, when she's old enough. But she'll probably find this post right here and give me this look. This is clearly just my opinion, but house plants are sexy. House plants and eleven other things. Please feel free to agree.

In honor of Valentine's Day...

#1 White sheets.
"A man would prefer to come home to an unmade bed and a happy woman 
than to a neatly made bed and an angry woman." - Marlene Dietrich

#2 Messy buns.

#3 Carbonara




#4 A tailored suit.
"I like to dress up in a tailored suit from time to time, 
and there's a tailor I go to in Naples who's fantastic. But if I told 
anyone his name, I'd have to kill them." - Hugh Jackman
Via Man's Guilt





#5 Subtle jewelry.
"Jewelry is something that has to do with emotion. 
That aspect of jewelry really interests me." - Ann Demeulemeester

#6 Song.
"If music be the food of love, play on." - William Shakespeare

#7 Plants.
"Plants exist in the weather and light rays that surround them - waving in the wind, shimmering 
in the sunlight. I am always puzzling over how to draw such things." - Hayao Miyazaki

Told you.
Via Wit & Delight





#8 Black outfits.
"Women who wear black lead colorful lives." Neiman Marcus

#11 Fast cars.
"There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, 
and mountaineering. All the rest are merely games." - Ernest Hemingway
Via crackmill





#12 The Sea.

found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore." - Vincent Van Gogh

    Very nice! But may I add napes and ankles. The intrigue and mystery of looking at napes and ankles tells chapters of who it belongs to. Almost like palm reading but more for the senses. @Angel Cebu City

    May I add Spectacles to this list... Nothing is sexier than a bespectacled man or woman, reading a book or newspaper with a cup of joe in hand. That effortless look of Age and Wisdom, albeit from afar sometimes purely imagined, is just so damn sexy! :-)
