The Foxes and band tshirts they’d all have.

Neil:

His would be something super basic because he didn’t want to draw attention to himself.

Heaven forbid someone comes up to him asking him about the random unknown band shirt he has on.

He probably wears like Rolling Stones, Johnny Cash, basic ones you’d find at like every store ever.

However after the events of the series Andrew definitely gets Neil a whole new wardrobe.

Including band shirts.

I head cannon Neil as someone who likes 60s/70s music so I think Andrew probably mainly stays within that era.

But not like the abbey road Beatles album shirt cause every teen girl has that.

He gets him like vintage aesthetically pleasing ones.

His collection also includes some Bob Dylan, CCR, Janis Joplin, and more.

(Neils a whore for Joplin I don’t make the rules)

Andrew:

We ALL know Andrew Joseph Minyard is the king of grunge/early 2000s alternative band shirts.

If it’s black and has a musician on it he owns it.

My Chemical Romance, Fallout Boy, probably Panic at the Disco, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Green Day.

Also like local unknown artists. Hes the type of person who has never heard your music but “hey cool band shirt. I’ll buy that and one of you CDs”

He unironically has a Avril Lavigne shirt too

Kevin:

Kevin doesn’t listen to music except during warmups or when he’s working out.

And even then it’s just a random station or a playlist Nicky or Andrew made him.

He doesn’t care or know enough music to wear band shirts.

Like you could ask him to name a band and he couldn’t because when he was in the nest they didn’t really listen to a lot music.

Plus the music he does listen to is just background noise to block out the sound of the team or his surroundings.

He may have like one or two but they don’t mean anything.

Nicky:

Nicky has like ten Britney Spears shirts.

Not even joking

All his band shirts are early 2000s girl artists.

He has a Gaga, Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Rihanna, Amy Whinehouse, Madonna, Pink.

Basic I know but you can’t tell me Nicky doesn’t listen to Beyoncé and Rihanna.

Aaron:

The only band shirts he has are ones Andrew has gotten him over the years.

Andrews go to gift is band shirts okay? He likes music.

Anyway aaron doesn’t pay a lot of attention to his wardrobe and mainly shops at like Target or Ross.

So if he sees a cool shirt that happens to be a band as well he’ll probably get it.

He does have a Maroon 5 shirt he likes quite a lot because it’s cool looking and he’s straight straight.

Renee:

Again Andrew buys Renee a lot of band shirt

When he sees ones that remind him of her, he gets it.

She has some like christen band shirts because ya know she listens to that kind of music.

But she also has a lot of 90s grunge shirts because she really enjoys that kind of music too.

Oh and definitely riot grrrl shirts.

She loves riot grrrl music.

Dan:

Dan likes your classic 90s girl bands.

TLC, Destinys Child, Spice Girls, Indigo Girls, etc.

Also 2000s girl artists.

She has a bunch of band shirts but mainly wears them for gym workouts or when she goes for a run or something.

They’re her workout go tos.

She (un??)ironically has a Cheetah Girls and Hannah Montana shirt too.

She likes to steal Matt’s T-shirts to sleep in because they are big and comfortable.

Allison:

Only wears ones that look expensive or are expensive.

Doesn’t own a lot because she’d rather wear almost anything else.

She likes music but band t shirts are too boring for her.

Sometimes she likes to wear band tank tops tho.

Always simple ones tho.

Like just the name.

Matt:

Matt has shirts for every genre of music.

He has so many.

He just buys them at Walmart or Ross when he sees them.

Along with the band ones he also just has all the cheesy shirts every chain store has in their men’s section.

He dresses basically like a 40 year old man who thinks his shirt is funny or cool.

But we all love him for that.

This was kinda random and weird but whatever.

Drinking it till you’re making it

A/n: So it's been a long since I didn’t post nothing, huh, but guess I’m back with a LatinBlack!Reader. I never give so many details about skin and hair in my pieces, cause I think it’s easy for all my readers to feel represented (at least this is how it works when I’m reading something here), but somehow I felt like I should this time, cause we’re always so so consumed by some stereotypes that even if the story doesn’t have details we imagine it like the cmon ones: skinny, blonde, north american etc. So I hope we can change that with time and create a place where everyone can feel home <3

‘Gotta raise a little hell’

The strong beat keeps going. It was a tough day for him at the studio, everything that Shawn wanted was to take a good bath and rest as much as possible in his king size bed.

Well, it sounded a little impossible once his neighbor started listening to loud music, he took his time, took also a bath waiting for by the time he ended she was done with songs, but it only got worse.

She went from Rihanna to some kind of rock bass that was eating his patience.

He checked his clock three or four times before giving up and putting a white shirt, walking to her door.

And don't get him wrong, Shawn is very very patient, but man all he wanted to do was rest. Does she know that there's someone besides her on this damn floor?

And there she was. Shawn remembered her name, but he didn't remember how beautiful she was without the black makeup.

Y/n was what Shawn would call soft gothic. She used to look cute into the ripped black jeans and oversized 90’s band shirt. Her curly hair sometimes on top of her head in a messy bum and sometimes all over her shoulders catching people’s attention.

She definitely didn't listen to his music. Does she know who I am?? That was the question hovering above his mind the first time they bump into each other in the elevator.

And somehow she knew or at least knew that he was famous.

They never really talked too much, she was always late and he was always busy. 

They were very distinct polos. Never on the same page of the book, if possible never even in the same book.

He rang the bell one, two, three, four times before she opened the door. An oversized shirt, just like always, but this time no ripped jeans.

Is she even wearing something underneath??

A glass of wine in hands and a tired look.

“Hey, y/n...” he smiles when she raises her brows. Somehow Shawn couldn't bring himself to just ask her to turn the music off. He wanted to stare a little more, see her curious and tired eyes studying his figure. “How you doing?”

“I’m doing hella bad, what about you, boy-next-door?” she takes a sip of the red drink and he can't take his eyes off of how her lips get wet and slightly pink.

“I’m ok, I guess..”

“Are you sure you're okay, cause it's like 3 am and you're at my door. I would say there's something going on”

“I was just curious about the song name...the song playing” he points to the inside of her house. She laughs, clearly seeing that it was nothing about the song title.

“It’s too loud, right?!” She shifts her weight to only one foot. “I am sooo sooo sorry, I thought you were traveling again, you always out. Plus, I had a really shit day...I mean, this guy that made pair with me in one of our calculus class he just took the project that I did all by myself and told the professor that it was his idea”

“Wow, what a dick” Shawn comments not knowing what he was really supposed to say.

“I know right?!! And then I went to work and somehow someone manages to spill coffee in my clothes, it was damn hard to keep the patient”

“Oh, you work at a coffee shop?”

“Something like that, it’s a library and a coffee shop altogether, I was going to try a place relates with engineer since I'm at the appropriate year of my studies, but this bastard just took it from me by saying that it was his own project”

She sights trying to keep cool, her right hand was already clenched into fists.

Did she beat him up?!

Oh, Shawn wishes she did.

“It’s the equivalent of you writing a really good song but there's this new singer and he took it all for himself, he got the credit, the fans and he even creates a fake story to seem real. Wouldn't you be pissed?!”

“One hundred percent” Shawn nods.

“I’m sorry, you came up to ask me to turn down the music and I'm rambling about my damn day”

“No, it's okay, it’s fine.”

She knew he was the typical educated Canadian, he wouldn't be rude or say something that could possibly sound like.

“I’m gonna turn it off, so you can sleep better. Sorry for the mess.” she apologizes and Shawn smiles with the way her eyes faced the ground like a puppy.

“’S okay”

“Good night, Mendes” he stops for some minutes appreciating the way she pronounced his last name. Men-diS. Shawn swears he could hear her accent slip like that for all day long.

“Good night, y/n, hope you have a better day when you wake up today.”

She nods and the last thing he sees is her lips parted in a smile before the door closes.

Shawn went back to his own door that night, the music turned off and the silent night taking his sleep.

After that day they would exchange more than a ”good morning” in the elevator and every time her sound was too loud he knew that it was a bad day, so he would knock her door and let her tell about, seeing how much she felt better just by putting all the bad events out.

Now they were more than just y/n and Shawn, they could call each other friends, not really close friends but still friends. The kind of who makes sure you feel better when they can.

It was a Friday night, probably around midnight when Killer queen started playing. Shawn instantly knowing it had been a harsh day for her. After all this time he manages to know that once she’s listening to Queen she really needs to rest, she had told about how it is her favorite band.

 So the Canadian decides that it wasn’t a door-talk day, he slips his feet in the flip flops and goes straight to his kitchen, looking for one of his favorite bottle of wine. Shawn then makes his way to her door, ringing the bell. Y/n answers after the fourth ring. 

‘Dynamite with a laser beam’

She shows up, just like the other nights wearing only an oversized shirt. The Queen symbol in the black fabric, her hair hanging curly in her shoulders making a perfect contrast with her dark skin. 

“One of those days?” he asks and she smiles before nodding her head in a negative response.

“No really, it’s just tiredness in a whole new level.” 

“I brought the wine” 

“I’ll only let you get inside because of that” she jokes before both explode in laughs.

Her apartment, for his surprise, looks a little like his, besides the paintings hanging on the wall. Very colorful paintings. And even tho he would put her in the ‘soft gothic’ box, the colors and the decoration looks like her.

“You seem really tired too” she comments plotting her body in the sofa and pointing to the kitchen, so he could take a new glass for him.

“I am, in fact” he answers once he comes back from the room with the glass already full of red wine. 

He fills y/n’s cup before letting the bottle in the coffee table. She hugs a pillow in from of her body giving him a long stare.

“And whys that?” 

“My best friend broke his arm so I was with him in the hospital all day and night long.” 

“Damn, is he alright now?” 

“Yup, he will get better soon, hopefully,” Shawn sips his drink facing the fireplace and how it brings a comfortable atmosphere to the room. “and what about you? Are you tired because of the university?” 

“Yeah, sometimes I wish to be a rockstar just like you, bro” she sighs making her best drama face, Shawn laughs.

“Woman, it’s not that easy. Some days I wish to be a college student just like you” he repeats her sentence using it for his own.

“We can change life whenever you’re cool with it, do you think you fans would be okay with me on the stage? Would they like me?” 

“Who doesn’t?” He asks in a moment of slip. Her brows furrowing and her lips curving a little after processing what he just said.

“Well, sometimes I can’t even handle myself”

“I know, these are the days that I knock in your door and we talk and talk till you feel tired enough and go to sleep” 

She smiles with the memories. Tiredness and sadness have never been healed in a better way. Y/n sits up, taking her glass in hands and sipping the red wine. It’s a new kind of sweet for her palate. 

“Damn, Mendes, this is a whole new level. Where did you take these?”

“I know right?! It was from one of my travels to Italy,” he responds, happier than ever about how she was so comfy around him. 

“What do you have from my home country?” she lets the glass in the coffee table and takes the popcorn bowl in hands, walking to his side on the sofa. 

Shawn gazes at her naked legs, the skin there seemed so soft.

“I- uh...I have this book, it’s called ‘Love in times of cholera’ I bought it even tho I’m not too much into reading, but it seemed a nice name and when I googled it I saw that it was from an important Colombian author.”

“El amor em los tiempos del cólera” she sits by his side with a tooth grim. “It’s from Gabriel Garcia Marquez, such a damn well-written piece” 

Y/n extends the popcorn bowl to Shawn and he takes some in his big hands.

“Fuck I love when you speak something in Spanish, it’s so cute” 

“Oh, gracias, mi amigo”

“Amigo” he repeats slowly and she nods, holding back a smile. “It means friend, right?” 

“Sí” she keeps teasing with that amused look on her face. 

“So you just friend zoned me?” 

“What?! No, bro” 

“Oh, so now you just ‘bro’ me”

They exchange glances at each other and start laughing. 

“We’ve been having these wine drunk talks, that’s the kind of thing that I imagined to do with a lover, not a friend if you want to be a friend that’s okay for me, bu...” Shawn stops her rambling by placing his lips on hers.

Y/n smiles between that touch before deepening the kiss, feeling his soft and wine taste lips. Shawn’s hands hold her body close, practically molding her into his hands, but once the song changes y/n departs.

“This playlist is from my Spotify suggestion, is that your voice singing Under pressure?” She looks at him with wide eyes and this curve in her lips, almost a smile. 

“That’s what I was going to tell you”

“You’re definitely in my lover zone”

“Hope I’m the only one” he teases approaching again, she grins. 

“Since the first knock on my door” She kisses his lips again, not ready to let go of the feeling that he brought to her whole body.

you have one of the most beautiful souls. you are a geniune, kindhearted, sweetheart who deserves nothing but the world to treat you with the kindness you give it. ive only stanned you for almost a year now but ive learned a bit about you and your just so beautiful inside and out. i would hope, even tho its very unrealistic, for you to never be sad.

when your sad or when you cry i get sad with you and want to hug you and just comfort you. another part of me wants you to be happy 25/8 i know its not realistic but god seeing you upset makes me so sad. youre a silly individual and i love you pull different faces but my favorite face youve ever made is when you smile.

your smile...ranging from little smirks to your big ass boxy smile...its really the most beautiful thing ive ever seen. when you laugh it makes me smile so big my cheeks start hurting. when you giggle my heart grows. you have the most prettiest lips ive ever seen hdfhjk theyre so pink and shaped in such a cute way. when you smile your eyes get scrunchy (your nose does as well) and they get so so so sparkly and bright.

your eyes your eyelashes are so long oh and i love how you have monolid and a double lid. theyre different but equally as beautiful.

beautiful one of the words id use to describe your voice. wether you are talking or singing i absolutely love your voice. hearing you get better at your highnote on stigma makes me so proud cus you really work hard(i admire you for that) and the improvment is just amazing. id have you sing me to sleep tbh kdjdjsks. i also just love hearing you talk. i could listen to you talk forever your voice is just that nice sksjjzmzkk. its deep as heeeeelllll but it can hit that high note (come thru vocals!)

you! are! adorable! cute! ma little squishy!!! there are times when you act so adorable you probably dont even know. like when you fall asleep your lips all pouty and you can see your eyelashes really well. or! when you were about to show everyone tata and you thought yoongi was gonna say you gave off a van gogh vibe you eyes got all sparkly and sksjsnsm (really you were adorable the whole time you were creating tata you seemed so excited and happy :((( ) you are just so damn cute :(( you can also be such a shy guy especially when talking about your art which is adorable (a renassiance man!) when you kiss the camera and go mwah! love that! the fact that you have to cuddle someone to fall asleep is sososo cute :((((

all of your face moles super duper cute and kissable. nose mole? kiss! lip mole? smooch! i love every single one

you look so good in red. it was created just for you i swear! bandanas and berets on you are a yes!!! also 171019!! hoodies look so good on you! you look so comfy and cozy! let me cudd*e you!! :(((

dude. your hands are like the prettiest fucking hands ive ever seen. i just wanna compare hand sizes with you and hold your hands. i wanna leave kisses on them and tell you how beautiful you are.:( (i also wanna paint your nails)

you seem like such a confident person. it shows in your fashion (the male rihanna) you dont give a shit about what people have to say and i admire you so much for that! you saying you dont want any of the other members dna and that you like your own??? you call your pimples friends??? you get happy when you gain weight??? you are so carefree???? love a confident man!!! you just seem so sure of yourself and i really admire that.

you are such an intelligent person. first thing that comes to mind is your english. you pick words so quickly and it sounds really good. your able to listen to a god damn chicken and know what pitch they were crying??? (ok talent!) you are smart regardless of what anyone says. (ill literally murk anyone who says otherwise)

you have such a big heart and you share that love with dogs and children. youre literally going to be such an amazing dad one day :(

you yourself can act like a big kid sometimes jfdgjkb you can be loud, super goofy n silly, and it always seems like you look at the world with a childlike wonder. you actually have a certain type of innocence that i hope you hang onto forever.

you are such a unique person with a unique personality and the more i learn about you the more i love you

you are clumsy, bad at games, smack your food, can move your ears??? for some reason, wear your glasses on the back of your head, can literally make friends with anyone,have a heart of gold, protective of your members, dont get scared when theres zombies chasing you gdhhjkb,would probably be a gaming youtuber,a child at heart, and an overall lovable human

kim taehyung. you are a charming, funny, talented, intelligent, man. and i love and adore and admire you sosososo much.

#im not good at this type of stuff #but i felt like i should make a letter for himdjdhdjks #i dont even know where i was going w this #i wrote this in one go at like 6 am #and i was super tired #dont judge me fkdjd #this basically just me going off on how much i luv him :(((( #so if anyone actually reads this im very suprised fjdjdsk #jazzy.txt #my post #bf #happy bday taetae! my luv!😔💗✨💕💕💖✨✨💖 #i keep re reading this and getting embarrassed jkhfjhdk

Top Ten Bajan Christmas Gifts 2017

I know you’ve been sitting on the edge of your seat and I’m sure you’re gonna love the gifts on this year’s list of Bajan products. Sure, you could buy anything that’s imported but there’s something so special about getting a gift that was made right here in Barbados. Let’s get right into it then.

10. Sophisticated Centrepiece - Jalans Creations - One of the most important parts of the Christmas celebration in Barbados and around the world is having Christmas lunch with the family. Perhaps one of the most underestimated but memorable elements of this feast is the centrepiece, so why not give the gift of decor this Christmas? Whether you have a complete tablescape planned or you prefer the minimalist approach, your centrepiece will be a focal point at the dinner table. Before I go any further, you need to know that Bajans are veryyy crtitical. They will have no problem telling people that your table “had look pop down” or “stink”. Five years from now I guarantee they will still be talking about it. That’s why I was so relieved to stumble upon this Blue Bouquet by Lana Nurse, founder of Jalan’s Creations. I kind of wish I could have one in every room. It makes me feel like I was spirited away to a fairytale sprinkled with magic dust. Just gorgeous! If you want one you better hurry though because Lana tells me you have til December 21st to place your order.

9. Vegan Cork Bags - Ole Luck - Guys, cork bags are a thing now and they look so cool. I have to admit, this was the first time I ever heard of Vegan bags. Accessories can be vegan now? I couldn’t help but wonder how they taste. Now before we start chowing down, I want you to rest assured that buying a woman a bag for Christmas is always a good idea. Still, what makes these bags so special are the fact that they’re environmentally responsible. No harmful plastics and for the animal lovers among us, no leather. Don’t ask me how, but a guy by the name of Andy makes all these gorgeous bags by hand. If you’re feeling really patriotic, you can get a wristlet with 246 or the broken trident on it, but I fell in love with the Wayuu purse. The Wayuu are indigenous people living in Colombia and Northwest Venezuela, described as the people of the sun, sand and wind. Wayuu women make a specific type of woven bag with unique vibrant patterns reflected in the sash on these Ole Luck beauties. Fun fact: The Wayuu language, which is called Wayuuniki, is part of the Arawak family.

8. Crocheted Bikini - Chain Loops Crochet - My gawd! What can I say about this talented diva? Owner Jessica Martindale creates customized fashion and soft home furnishings, while crocheting her way into your heart. Now the first time I saw her crocheted bikinis I knew I had to have one of her pieces. I ordered two. Forget your grandmother’s doilies. Jessica designs one-of-a-kind crocheted jumpers, skirts, dresses, chic baby blankets, earrings and even slippers. Yes, you heard me. She crochets frikkin slippers. But back to this sexy bikini tho. I’m not even telling you to buy this for someone else. This thing will make your life ten times sexier. You worked hard all year so you best believe you deserve it. Yasss!

7. Gold glitter Barbados Throw Pillow - ChicFit Inc - This cute little cushion stopped me right in my tracks. This ain't no run-of-the-mill throw pillow. You can decorate any space with it, no matter the colour scheme. Classy level 1000! Listen to me. ChicFit is not messing around. They put a dang Barbados map on a black pillow and glitterized it in gold. What the what?! This throw cushion will change your life so you're welcome. Just gaze upon its glory. Also, can I just say how much I love ChicFit's logo? It speaks to me. It says “I love yoga times infinity”... or someting* so.

6. Deck The Halls - Classy Raggs Interiors - You have no idea what this means but you will. The brainchild of Ana Gill, Classy Raggs will leave you in stitches. If you’ve ever imagined what a home makeover should look like, then Ana should have her own TV show. Her work is phenomenal. She creates bespoke furniture, soft furnishings, you name it, she can bring your dream to life. Just look at what she did to this yacht! Yachtastic!

5. Smell My Nuts - West Indian Soap Co. - Not to be left out of the game, there’s definitely something for the guys too. As gross as it sounds, this was one of the most hilarious Christmas gifts I’ve stumbled upon thus far. There’s Man Soap, Man Wash and Man Lotion. Your man does not need another tie. Stop it. He wants you to get creative and think outside the box. Get him a gift that’s both playful and practical. Go ahead!  Smell deez nuts... coconuts, that is ;)

4. A Pinterest Box - HomeMade Luxe - If you’re heavily into DIY and crafting or you’re all thumbs like me and need detailed instructions to make anything, then this is the gift for you or someone you know. Former Barbados athlete Keitha Moseley-Dendy, The Bajan Texan, as she calls herself, started this business from a simple idea to bring Pinterest into real life. Stop pinning and start crafting, folks. Take all those cute projects you love online and decorate every room in your house with them. Brilliant idea! One might wonder where the mother of twin girls could possibly find the time but she spent many nights on her living room floor packing hundreds of boxes to keep her customers happy. That type of sweat equity deserves some kind of award. Now that HomeMade Luxe is finally available in Barbados, don’t lag!* In minutes you can have the sexiest pinned projects in your home. This month’s box is a Starburst Mirror. Who doesn’t love a gift that is both fun and functional? Shoot, you could even get some friends together and throw a Pinning Party.

3. Pillowgrams - Simmone Thorpe started thinking the other day about how wasteful cards are. To be honest, I never really know what to do after I read a card someone has given me. It’s so pretty I can’t bear to throw it away but I can’t really hang it up either so it invariably gets shoved down in a drawer somewhere, only to be found months later. You can’t enjoy the beauty of a greeting card from inside a drawer. Simmone wanted to find a way to make the memory last in a way that’s visible and functional. That’s how the Say it With a Pillowgram message pillow was born. This gift can be cute, funny, inspirational, sentimental, you can even add a photo of you and your loved one to create a wonderful keepsake. Pelt* a few of these customizable throw pillows into the mix to enhance your decor. Ladies, don’t we always try to stop at two and end up buying six?

2. Galaxy Eyeshadow - Fenty Beauty - This one was tough, I put this at the top of my personal Christmas Gift List because Rihanna. Seriously, though, what girl on earth doesn’t want eyeshadow that shines like diamonds and reflects all the colours of the milky way? I want my face to sparkle like the night sky too. Basically giving any gift from the Fenty Beauty line would make any woman in the world scream, from Match Stix to lip gloss to Trophy Wife highlighter. I’m dreaming of a glitter eyeshadow Christmas.

1. But First... Prosecco - West Indian Soap Co. - Start clutching your pearls ladies because this next gift will change your life. You know that moment when you never thought something was even possible and then all of a sudden Jesus and the whole universe answered your silent, unspoken prayers? This is basically what the But First Prosecco line of decadence is all about. Drowning your sorrows takes on a whole new meaning when you can literally bathe in your favourite sparkling wine. Cleopatra bathed in milk so the mere thought of bathing in Prosecco and smelling like it just tickles me pink. I can’t wait to be drenched in Prosecco.

Stay tuned for full features of some of these wonderful Bajan businesses. Big shoutout to the members of Women Making Money Work ladies networking group.
