Cuff ‘n’ Puff

by Calder Clark on May 10th, 2010

My family has an internal dictionary of sorts that, upon getting to know us, others pick up with abandon. It’s really funny to hear someone use a Britt family word you just know was internally invented and is now spreading like a common-day colloquialism. One of our phrases is “buff ‘n’ puff”, used as a combo suggestion that one needs to “powder your nose”/get your stuff together/rehab your wardrobe/lose a 5-er. Others include “cufupu” (clean up/fix up/pick up), a classic that everyone in our office has adopted. But I digress.

Point being (I promise I have one) that the cuffs below are the ultimate “cuff ‘n’ puff”- read: no need to lose a 5-er. Slap one of these on and your tired ensemble is radically elevated to haute couture.
