I recently found out about a company called Man Crates, and immediately kicked myself for not knowing about them before. Do you have as much trouble shopping for your mister as I do for mine? Man Crates has solved our dilemma!
Let me give you five reasons you should go to mancrates.com right now:
- Mani/pedi
- Spa day
- Unlimited mimosas at brunch
- A great haircut (with an extra long head rub)
- One whole day spent reading by the pool
So when Alexandra, the Community Manager at Man Crates, contacted me to ask what my ultimate survival kit would look like, I put some thought into it. Who knows, maybe we can get a Lady Crates offshoot? (Come through for us Alexandra!) Here's what I told her:
- First, you've got to have the right bag. My pick is the Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Groovee satchel. It fits everything and looks darn good doing it.
- Give me hot sauce or give me death! I don't think I'd make it 24 hours without hot sauce (it's one of the 4 things you should always carry). I'd take a giant bottle of sriracha.
- I can't live without my iPad. What an incredible invention! At my fingertips I have access to books, games, friends, and all the information the internet can hold. And of course I'd protect it with an adorable Kate Spade folio.
- Have you ever played Carcassonne? It's the most addicting, intelligent, fun game I think I've ever played, which is saying something! I play at least one round every night and would take it with me to a desert island.
- All joking aside - I can't live without sunscreen. I am the color of Casper, and no one wants skin cancer. I swear by Clinique's City Block (although I usually use 50 spf, I'm not playing around with my skin!)
