Fashion Tips and Style Ideas.

When it comes to wardrobe & fashion, many guys don’t realize that clothing does indeed “make the man.” What you wear is just as important to others as to yourself it enhances you personality. This topic has to be taken seriously in today’s society, a first impression does matter.

Significantly.

If you want to be noticed positively by both women and men, you need to get some basic fashion and style tips to help you dress up to your potential. Keep in mind, even the most expensive clothing line won’t flatter you if you stoop. Stand up straight and carry yourself with pride. If you respect yourself, others will too. That has to be your main concern.

Wear Clothes that Fit you properly.

Why not look good today, why wait for tomorrow, instead of some unspecified day in the future. When you’re shopping, buy clothes that are comfortable. If you need something altered, visit your tailor and do it because it is for yourself and not for others.

Find out What Works for You

Take a good look in the mirror and you’ll begin to understand what colors and styles look the best on you it’s essential to give yourself time and understand what’s best for you. It’s OK to try something new, but classics outlive trends.

Maintain Your Clothing

Don’t wear soiled or wrinkled clothes that totally kill your appearance. Stick to fabrics that resist wrinkling or learn how to use an iron. Guess men always forget that. Suits and formal wear should be taken to the dry-cleaner to be cleaned and pressed.

Stripes – Not the Best Choice

It’s best to stay away from horizontal stripes, unless you’re tall & lean. Most stripes are unflattering, and the horizontal ones add bulk, can make you appear heavier, and shorter. Solid colors are a good choice and dark, solids will make you look slimmer.

Keep it Simple

Loud, bright colors and patterns can make you look ridiculous. You can’t go wrong with basic black and navy blue for work or casual, it’s classic for a reason. You can add other attractive colors for a perfect match.

Keep Short Sleeves for Casual

Don’t show up for a job interview or business meeting in a short-sleeved shirt. Formal and business attire always include long sleeves and a tie.
