Built for Man Presents Bako: A Taste of Fashion

Built for Man Presents Bako: A Taste of Fashion...

Dear men of Seattle, Hey there. It’s time we sat down and had a talk. You know that I love you, right? Okay good. Because while you have a lot of qualities that I find irresistible, like how you are always around to fix my computer and the fact that I never have to feel self-conscious about how pale I am when I stand next to you, there is one thing that’s been driving me crazy for a while now. It’s your...
Gerald Wu Hair Design: Or how I went from blah to holy shit hair in 1.5 hours

Gerald Wu Hair Design: Or how I went from blah to ...

Photo courtesy of Gerald Wu Hair Design First, you need to know something about me before I start this review on the totally amazing Gerald Wu hair cutter extraordinaire. I am not cool. I don’t know the first thing about trends. I read popular books about 10 years past their prime. And I’m the first to arrive and leave a party. Case in point: I’m wearing a sweater with hearts on it that I wore to a “Bad Sweater...
SPUN’s Low V-Neck T-shirt: Cheaper than a Boob Job

SPUN’s Low V-Neck T-shirt: Cheaper than a Bo...

If you’re feeling a little less sexy after the holidays (yes, I ate cookies for breakfast on New Year’s Eve, what’s it to you?), then I’m here to solve all your problems. Today I’ve got the lowdown on how a $40 investment can make you feel pretty no matter how much champagne you guzzled over the past two weeks. This past month I rediscovered a magical item of clothing that goes with everything,...
The end of shopping is near: Seattle’s Etsy Edition

The end of shopping is near: Seattle’s Etsy Edit...

By now if you haven’t finished your shopping, then you might be just a tad on the screwed side. BUT there’s a little thing called Etsy that could possibly save your day if you still need a gift or two to throw into a shipping box. My suggestion: Email the local vendor and arrange a meeting spot – thus avoiding the shipping fees and getting to know the seller. Whenever I look on Etsy, I always first look locally just for...
Don’t Panic- The Yay-Today Gift Guide is Here!

Don’t Panic- The Yay-Today Gift Guide is Her...

Science has proven that times moves extra-fast this time of year. (Okay, so science hasn’t actually proven that, but it sounds right.) I don’t know how it happens, but the time between Thanksgiving and New Year’s moves at the speed of light, and is inconveniently sprinkled with a slew of gift-giving festivities- so not only do you have to prep for travel, parties and the rest of life’s craziness, but...
Elaia Spa Happy Hour Giveaway: Get Gorgeous!

Elaia Spa Happy Hour Giveaway: Get Gorgeous!...

Let’s face it- the amount of time we WANT to spend in a spa just doesn’t compare with the amount of time we can actually afford to do so. But don’t fret- that will just cause more wrinkles. Instead, head downtown (since you’re probably going to be there anyway shopping this holiday season) and schedule a little bit of spa during one of Elaia Spa’s Happy Hours. 20 minute services are just $20,...
Chic and Cheap: Two Fashion-y Events for Budget-Minded Babes

Chic and Cheap: Two Fashion-y Events for Budget-Mi...

So you know that here at Yay-Today, we like to look cute, but we really love paying our credit cards off in full every month. (Frequent flier miles and no accrued interest? Yes please!) Yeah, I get a little wistful when I walk by the windows of Nordstroms and Saks, but a little bit of self-control goes a loooong way for the ole’ credit score. But that does not mean that you’ll find me sporting shabby, or worse,...
Dolce Vita: 33% off to NYC

Dolce Vita: 33% off to NYC...

Have you been to Dolce Vita in Ballard? Probably not. It’s that big store with all the windows and clothes that scream YOU CAN’T AFFORD ME. Except, you would be surprised. Some of their clothes are actually surprisingly reasonable. Don’t expect Value Village prices, but it’s a good place to buy one coveted piece that you can wear with everything – like a mini dress for the Summer that you could easily transition...
Best in Show at West Elm Seattle’s Grand Opening

Best in Show at West Elm Seattle’s Grand Ope...

In case you have been living under a rock for the past couple of months, let me tell you that West Elm has finally launched it’s first Seattle store. That’s right folks, no more wistfully staring at the catalog over a glass of wine trying to justify a quick day trip to Portland so you can get the new serving platter you’ve been lusting after. Say goodbye to evenings spent trying to justify the shipping...
FROST: Holy sugar, Batman I’m gonna need a bigger mouth

FROST: Holy sugar, Batman I’m gonna need a bigge...

You know how when you plan a wedding all everyone talks about is that damn dessert? But you’re so over doing the cupcake thing and quite frankly, you’re not even a cake person. Well, did you ever think about fancy doughnuts instead? I didn’t, until I was introduced to FROST. And even though I’m not using FROST for our wedding, this magical doughnut idea is reason enough to write about them. Photo courtesy of Frost...
