THANK YOU

A big thank you to all the teams who came out on Friday and supported Movember at our Beer Pong Tourney. We raised close to $400, bringing our team's fundraising total to $1,095 -- awesome!!

Special congratulations to the winning team, Sean and Kim who walked away with a $160 cash prize.

Beer Pong for a cause

To help raise funds (while also having fun), we've put together a Beer Pong Tournament schedule for this Friday at Aces & Eights on the Lower East Side.

Here are all the details:
- $20 per person / $40 per team. A portion of this will go to charity and a portion to the winning team. Once we have a final tally of the number of teams we will update the evite to reflect to grand prize. (Obviously, more teams, higher payout.)

- Each team is responsible for filling their own cups for their respective games. We've got pitchers at at reduced price all night long ($10/pitcher, averages out to $2 a beer), so this wont be a major cost.

- You will need to confirm participation (let us know by RSVPing to this eVite) by Thursday, November 19th. This way, we will be able to make brackets before Friday

- First round will begin promptly at 9:00PM. If you whole team is not around for the start of your game, you will be DQ'ed

- If you have a partner you want to be with, let us know. If not, we'll hook you up with someone.

Here's your invitation:
Beer Pong Invitational

Of course, if you're not much into Beer Pong, we'd still love to have you join in on the fun. If you can donate to Movember, we'd surely appreciate it! We'll be taking cash donations at the bar.

Hope to see you all on Saturday!!

Brian Update 6:00p.m., November 11

Caught Brian en route to the gym to give us a quick moustache update. Here you go:







Brian mentioned that the woman at our convenience store has taken a liking to his new facial hair. I'll be sure to continue to update this situation as details become available...

Keeping it Classy

Last night Brian and I went to the Louis Vuitton Launch party at Saks (thanks to Brian’s awesome stepmom). The event was super chic and I have to say that Brian’s moustache fit right in!


The LV Model Meet Brian’s Moustache

After the event, we all headed to Burger Joint, where we ran into another Movember Man helping himself to a late night burger.


I forget his name now, but still wanted to give Mystery Movember Man a shout out.




Onward and upward!

Great Purchase

What a gorgeous weekend it was! Brian and I decided to take a super long walk on Saturday and while cruising through the West Village we found this cool little tee shirt shop. The purchase:


















Brian's looking forward to showcasing this ready-to-wear piece at a charity event (we're working out details now).

Get excited!

Good Morning Sunshine! (Moustache Update)

DISCLAIMER:  This post and photos were all taken pre-7:00AM this morning. Apologies for bad formatting, poor spelling and if you're seeing some sleepy eyes, it's probably because we're sleepy!)


Happy Friday!


This morning was a momentous morning -- Brian shaved off the beard and laid the foundation for the moustache to come. With 4 days under his belt (M-Th) and the fifth day upon us, I think we're all pretty happy with the results.

See for yourself:






And for some zoom action:






We have some serious shadow here, folks. Good Job Brian!


Heading into the weekend. Brian's moustache and I will be watching the Gator game with one of Brian's old UF roommates, Steve (who's in town from ATL). Beers will be in order. A moustchace will continue to grow.

Laura’s Favorite Looks

Last night we began to decide what style ‘stache best fit’s Brian’s face. The debate was short lived as we decided the best bet was to get some length and then work on styling. With that said, I thought I should post some of my favorite moustaches of the past, styles that I would be proud for Brian to emulate.

Here’s my collage of great ‘staches:




Looking at them, they’re similar. I guess I’m a traditionalist.
Let’s see what Brian decides on as the month continues…
