Happy Black Friday everyone! We hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving. We took the day off to catch up with family and friends but are back today to share some really fun reads with you!

We realized that we rarely talk about men’s lifestyle around here {primarily because we’re mostly girls!} but in honor of MOvember and to support bringing awareness to prostate cancer, we decided to switch things up this month. For this special edition of Blogs We Loved, we’ve rounded up some of the very best destinations around the web for the fellas!

We hope you either share these with the men in your life or, do what I do, and browse through them yourself! I’m naturally attracted to a more masculine aesthetic, especially in design, so I love finding new inspiration through the perspective of a male. They serve as eye candy a great break from your daily reads from us girls!

Scout Sixteen is one of our absolute favorite men’s fashion blogs. He has the most adorable, casual urban style, making his looks approachable and relatable for the man that needs a total closet overhaul. Some days he’s in a sweater and chinos, others he’s in a leather bomber and Flyer boots- whatever he’s wearing, he has an infections confidence that every man can take note from!

Why We Love It: The boy has three loves: whiskey, good times and Frenchies. ‘Nuff said.

You’ve probably heard of Ryan Plett. He’s a freelance photographer, founder of #CURRENTLY in New York and author of You Have Broken The Internet (1 of a few blogs he started) and overall hot shot. Here he shares his recent projects, fashion finds and fashion photography.

Why We Love It: Plett has the all American, manly man, lifestyle down to a science. Count on him to shoot rugged street style, hard angles and feature quality-focused, American made brands.

Movember-Blogs-We-Love-Sig-Other

The Significant Other is special because it’s a style blog for men through the voice of Marisa, yes, a woman! A girl after my own heart, she started the blog to share her passion for purpose, subtlety and quality- what menswear is all about.

Why We Love It: Fantastic interviews with real life business men, fashion brands and store owners. Perhaps the most genius part of Marisa’s venture is her column, “On a Personal Note” where men of all ages write in about their thoughts on style.

We’re curious, do you surf through mens blogs? If so, which are your favorite? If not, would you like to see a men’s focused post ever so often on Apartment 34? It could be a fun way to mix things up around here!
