Some people work to cure cancer, others are fighting the war on poverty. Me? My selfless act is to help people spend money on stuff they need, like clothes and bags and makeup and, of course, killer shoes. But, that's not all. I like to eat. And complain (most specifically about how hard it is to be a mom). Oh, and obsess over the next perfect pair of shoes.

I *heart* Daftbird
Of all the many fashion trends that I've loved over the years, the one I adore most is T-shirts.
Graphic, plain, loose-fitting — I love them all. And, I pretty much own them all.
While different fashion mags have anointed brands like Kain and Neal Sperling as the ultimate, my all-time favorite is Daftbird.
Designer Joshua Christopher created his line, which primarily focuses on shirts, to recreate that cuddly, broken-in feel of wearing a boyfriend's shirt. You can find v-necks, spaghetti-strap tanks, henleys and loose-fitting scoopnecks that feel just downright incredible. By stockpiling from swayandcake.com and revolveclothing.com, I've compiled an arsenal of Daftbird that includes 100-percent cotton, a snuggly cotton-modal blend and an amazing menage a trois of 50 percent poly-37.5 percent cotton-12.5 percent rayon. Honestly, I think I've started to cause pilling on a few shirts because they're so darn soft that I just pat the tummy area, marveling at the Charminlike softness.
Some people collect Louis Vuitton bags, I hoard anything made of that fabric holy trinity. It's that great.
My latest acquisition is this soft vest that crosses a sweet grandpa-ish cardigan front with a rock-n-roll short hem in the back. Thanks, Swayandcake!
The best part is, you can find screaming deals on Daftbird right now. So, what are you waiting for — check it out.

Boyfriend's shirt? What's wrong with a husband's shirt? Too thickly interwoven with unfulfulled promise and lethargy? My wardrobe has never been more insulted ...
I think you are going to have to buy Joe a Daftbird shirt JUST so you can borrow it!
