Whit Honea is a slacker, a borderline degenerate, and a daydream believer. He's also our resident expert on casual chic. If it's comfortable, and not heinous, he's all over it. He's quite charming, really.

Today is the 4th of July. Chances are that if you were in the market for a t-shirt commemorating the holiday you already have it on. However, if that isn't the case, or if you are entertaining thoughts of getting a jump on 2009, then check out these patriotic tees from T-Shirts.com "one of the largest online retailers of t-shirts!"

There are only two articles of fabric we really care about come summertime, bikinis and barbecue aprons. We could sit here and talk bikinis all day, or better yet we could show you pictures of them. We're not going to do that- at least not in this post.

Wait! Don't leave! You can read about bikinis anytime, how often do you get the opportunity to appreciate the apron? It is the forgotten accessory of summer, but it is a vital one.

An apron is a great way to express oneself. It can be covered in beer bottles or kittens, crude jokes or sweet sentiments. The possibilities are endless. The BBQ Guys have a few examples below:

If you have a golf-loving Dad, then you know that something golf-related is guaranteed to get a smile from him. Golf guys eat, sleep, and drink the game. It's an obsession!

One sure way to make his day is to set up a tee time so he can spend some time swinging away on the links. Some new golf gear is always welcome, too!

Golf balls are a perennial hit, because he constantly needs them. If you want to get a little more creative, our gallery of golf gifts will give you ideas for something new to help him celebrate his special day.

Unless you look like Angelina Jolie circa 1999, it can be hard to get excited about swimsuits, and exposing so much naked flesh to the beach/world. But if we did get worked up about hot new swimwear, we would be tipping designers Damion Fuller and Fern Levack (aka: design house Hot Bondi Swim) as the people to watch.


The talented Aussie couple showed their swimwear designs at Rosemount Australian fashion week for the first time this year, and to their surprise, they have been asked to show in Miami in July as well -- one of only twenty design teams to receive an invite. "My immediate reaction was to pour a good stiff drink!" Fuller told Australian Vogue.

Anya Hindmarch's Men and women alike can be sustainably stylish. Here are the must-haves:

1. The reusable bag. It doesn't have to be Anya Hindmarch's bag you see at right (which we've all seen about enough of, frankly), but re-usable bags are eco-friendly and can say a lot about you. You read? Get one at a bookstore. In fact, you probably already have one. They're called tote bags. Use them when you go to the farmer's market (or the drug store) and feel good about yourself.

Easter is nigh and it's time to offend or be offended. Candy and punch will be served.

Previously I shared with you what I thought was the best Easter shirt ever. It probably is. The shirts I'm featuring today, from David and Goliath and Splitreason, respectively, are a bit more, for lack of a better word, extreme. So why am I sharing them if they're so offensive? Why didn't I just stick with the chocolate bunnies? Well, the thing is, you can't please everyone, and while some will hate others will laugh. Besides, don't you think chocolate bunnies were offended from that last shirt? It's all relative.

The shirt pictured above (David & Goliath, you remember them) really hit home. It's actually a shirt within a shirt. You see, Jesus is wearing a t-shirt on the t-shirt, and it is on his shirt that the message is printed. The message is the part that hit home, not the whole shirt within a shirt part. That wouldn't make any sense.

The message reads, "My dad created the universe and all I got was this lousy t-shirt." I must have had a dozen of these when I was a kid. Of course, my parents didn't create the universe, but they went places like Vegas where these shirts were readily available right in the airport. I was a walking lousy billboard of places my parents had traveled without me or a decent souvenir.

Hey, am I bitter? This is like therapy.

So with nothing further ado, I give you shirts that will make you laugh or cause you to cast me into eternal hellfire. I hope you laugh.

Today, as you probably know, is St. Patrick's Day. This is the day that it's okay to embrace stereotypes and get totally drunk in public- the earlier the better!

There are a lot of ways to show your love for the Irish. While I can't recommend green beer I can definitely drink support numerous pints of Guinness. It's good, and it's good for you. (Don't drink and drive!)

Another way to get in the mood is the classic t-shirt. There are tons of them all over the internet. I decided to share some from Zazzle, a site that lets you create your own custom shirt. Granted, it's too late to order any of these shirts for tonight, but if you really cared about celebrating St. Paddy's you'd be drunk by now and not surfing the web anyway, so the point is moot.

I chose the "Get Drunk with Eliot" shirt because it's timely and possibly offensive, which is something that tends to be appreciated in a bar full of intoxicated people pinching each other. Not that I would know about that sort of thing.

Here are a few others that I thought in/appropriate:

It isn't always easy being green (as evidenced by the model to the right), but St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner, so you'd better check your closet now and see what you have to wear. Go ahead. I'll wait.

Nothing, you say? Nothing green at all! Oh, dear!

Well, don't sweat it. Even if green isn't your color, you have to wear something in that hue on March 17, and I've got looks for ladies and fellas and even a few little tykes. As long as you've followed our rules, these items should work well for you. The main thing that I must stress is this: If you wouldn't wear it on any other day, don't wear it for the holiday. If you hate green and never wear it, don't go out in a green dress. Instead, find some accessories, like jewelry or a scarf in your hair, that will ward off the pinchies without sacrificing your personal style.

But please, unless you actually are Irish (and, even if you are), avoid the "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" tees unless you find something incredibly clever. It's just so cliche.

Sometimes, it's hard to know where to draw the line between fashionable festive and festively flawed.

Don't worry, though -- Styledash is here to guide you through the intricacies of this celebrated Irish holiday. Everyone can find a way to wear green that suits them, but there are some serious faux pas you'll want to avoid if you want to make the St. Paddy's Most Stylish list for 2008.

I painfully remember the year I forgot to wear green on St. Patrick's Day. I was in junior high, and it was miserable -- my maiden name was Green, so I thought maybe I'd get away without getting pinched, but no such luck. I came home with little red marks all over, and decided I would never go a St. Patty's without getting festive again.

However, I don't like wearing a bright green shirt or anything like that on the actual day -- I never like to dress just like everyone else -- so I look for shamrock-hued accents to serve my purpose. And, what better accent is there than brightly colored shoes?

I love these by Puma -- they actually have a lucky pot of gold included. But, if you're pretty sure you'll get lucky anyway, you might want to opt for some different kicks that better suit your style. Check out the gallery for some Irish inspiration! But hurry -- the pinching begins March 17!

Photo of Madonna Lily Egg in Moscow Kremlin Armoury, taken August 2003 by Stan ShebsIt's almost Easter. Here's a quick tutorial on what your sugar mama or daddy will inevitably be giving you: a Faberge egg.

Or maybe not. Real Faberge eggs, like the Madonna Lily Clock Egg at right, were made by Peter Carl Faberge and his assistants between 1885 and 1917 in Russia. There are only sixty-nine of them, and most of them are in museums.

Mental note: date an international art thief. In the meantime, Horchow makes some excellent Faberge-inspired gifts that will rock your Easter basket. Don't forget to casually forward this post to anyone who buys you things.

Here are some of the beautiful Faberge eggs that still have us in awe a century later:

Quaint and direct.
Cross stitch has gone subversive. And not a moment too soon.

subversive: a systematic attempt to overthrow or undermine a government or political system by persons working secretly from within.

Are you as excited about this as I am? My knees are bouncing under my desk.

On the website, you can buy kits for designs that say things from "TRUTHINESS" to "Don't Make Me Cut You". I can just imagine myself relaxing on the couch in front of The Soup and stitching, and my roommate coming in and saying:
Roommate: Whatcha doin', Annie?
Annie: Just some cross stitch.
Roommate: Oh, that's so quaint and adorable! What's it say?
Annie: "Life Sucks, Then You Die."

The website sells a book, a calendar, and note cards, and has an extensive How-To section. Knitting is so passe. I'm talking to you, Julia Roberts.

Guys, if you think your woman was serious when she told you that she didn't want anything for Valentine's Day, you better read this post about cracking the V-day code. Sometimes men and women interpret the words "anything" and "nothing" differently. So, that said, you might want to stop on your way home and get her a little "nothing" -- even if the only place on the way home is a convenience store.

Aside from a bottle of wine -- which is at least a halfway thoughtful choice -- I've found gifts as cool as these "rose panties" at the corner store by my place. They're not high quality, or edible, but they do serve the purpose of both flowers and lingerie -- two highly appropriate V-day gifts.

If she doesn't like them, play it off as a gag gift. Trust me -- it's better than showing up with literally nothing. I think it was one of the 3 wise men that said "a gentleman always brings gifts."

I've been doing research on lingerie for hours. That's the kind of sacrifice I'm willing to make for you, the Styledash reader.

It turns out that in our extensive coverage of all things soft and pretty (and sexy) that we forgot something, or someone to be specific. We forgot the fellas. True, the lingerie is really for us- to look at, not wear, not that there is anything wrong with that, but what about our soft and pretties (not as sexy)? We can't just stand around naked on Valentine's Day, can we?

That's when I remembered the ultimate Valentine's Day menswear item, the classic heart boxer. You may recall these timeless garments from such shows as every cartoon you've ever seen.

I think they're awesome in a wink, wink, nostalgia, hope I get depantsed sort of way.

If you haven't bought anything for the man in your life you better finish reading all the posts on this site and then run, run like the wind, to Old Navy and fork out $4.25. Seriously, that's it.

You're probably familiar with the tradition of finishing a fortune cookie message with "... in bed." If you haven't done this, you should, because instead of some boring old fortune you get something like, "You are talented in many ways ... in bed." Way more fun, to be sure.

Jewelry designer Jess LC created a "Lucky In Bed" necklace just for those of us whose minds go straight from dessert to the gutter. Well, at least for those of us with minds like that who still want cute, quirky, beautiful accessories to finish off our outfits.

The "Lucky in Bed" necklace combines the lucky Chinese color red with the longstanding tradition of adding "in bed" to the end of any fortune cookie message. They come in gold or silver and come in a small takeout box with a fortune cookie message, and I think you can guess how it ends ...

Either way, it's a great conversation piece, and would make a fantastic gift this Valentine's Day (or anytime, for that matter). When can we not use a good chuckle?

"Lucky in Bed" necklace, $36, available for purchase online here.
