Women notice your appearance and will evaluate you. Don’t
underestimate the importance of grooming yourself and the power of
having an attractive style. Develop these fashion tips into a unique
style that can become you. If you’re limited on funds, start with adding
the right shoes to your wardrobe, followed by a nice jacket, shirts and
then pants. Women spend a lot of money on their shoes and notice them

Grooming
It is always important to maintain a daily bodily hygiene. In terms of
cleaning, you should shower at least once a day. This is a given. Always
make sure you are washing every area. A hard days of work and sweat
won’t be washed away with only water. Get yourself soap or shower gels.
You should always shampoo your hair at least once every two to three
days to allow your hair’s natural oil and shine come through. Of course,
if your hair is naturally oily, it is better to shampoo every day.
You’ll find the balance, clean but not too clean, if you know what I
mean. Note: a small amount of oil in your hair is actually healthy for
your hair.
In terms of teeth and gums, always brush your teeth twice a day. If you
are only able to brush your teeth once a day, it is better to brush your
teeth just before bed rather than just after waking up. Although
flossing often gets overlooked, it is extremely important to floss your
teeth at least once a day. Not only does it remove plaque and gunk
between your teeth, keeps your breath fresher, and recent studies
suggest it is positively linked to stronger immune functioning.
In terms of hair, it has been widely suggested that the only place it
really belongs is on your head. Of course there are exceptions to this
rule. You don’t have to shave your legs. You are not a women and shaving
your legs will more likely make you appear more feminine than
masculine. The two most important places to keep the hair away is the
back and neck. These are two places that should be taken care of and
always groomed. Nothing is more of a turn off for a woman than a thick
mane of hair on a man’s neck. As for chest hair, there is no need to
shave or wax unless you have a thick mop sprouting from your pecs and
stomach. There is nothing wrong with a little facial hair. In fact,
studies have actually shown that facial hair on a man is often perceived
as an indicator of high testosterone levels. For pubic hair, it is fine
to have hair but trim up. This isn’t the 70′s, and I promise your woman
will appreciate your attention to detail. Your finger nails and toe
nails should always be kept short and free of gunk underneath of them.
Your clothes should always be clean and washed. Occasionally you can get
away with wearing jeans and jackets for a few days before they need a
washing. the tighter the fit of shirt, the quicker they will collect
sweat and body odor, so when it comes to t-shirts, you might want to
wash them more frequently.
Clothes and Style
You style should not be determined by current fashion streaks or trends.
It is not based on job type or income. It is more determined by your
personality. How you live your life and carry yourself is how want to
dress yourself. If you’re conservative, organized and pragmatic then let
your clothes convey that. If you are alternative, free spirited, and
creative, let that come out in your clothing as well. You want your
style to represent every side of yourself. And there is nothing wrong
with combining styles to create your own. Balance rugged with indulgent,
classy with artistic, etc. Also, it is always important to accentuate
your strengths and hide your weakness’. If you tend you be overweight,
darker colors will make you appear thinner. If you overly skinny,
lighter colors will make you appear thicker. If you are on the shorter
side, buy shoes that make you seem taller such as Doc Martens or
elevator shoes. If your ears jet straight out, longer hair looks better
than shorter hair.
Pants
Unless you are going to work, a formal party, or an upscale martini bar,
avoid wearing dress pants or Khaki pants. They are formal, common and
leave little room for individual style. Your better off wearing a nice
pair of jeans. When picking out remember fit is more important than
brand or cost. If jeans fit contour to your body well, than get them.
In terms of fitting jeans, always make sure the waist in thin enough to
sit on hips but wide enough so they are not pinching your stomach. Also
in terms of the fit, you generally want a higher crotch than a baggier,
lower one. This makes the article of clothing appear more tailored and
custom fit. In general, when buying jeans or clothing in general always
think “tailor fit.” You want snug where it’s neither too loose or too
tight. In terms of the wash, darker is still in, but the lighter washes
are starting to make a comeback. Whatever wash color you decide, stay
away from torn jeans. They came into style during the grunge explosion
and have managed to stick around until..well…about a year ago. So stay
away from pre-torn jeans. In terms of length, you want your jeans ¾ of
an inch higher than your shoes. If you must choose between too long or
too short, always buy jeans that are too long. It is easy to get them
altered if they are too long. But they are too short, they will always
be too short. Here are some popular upscale brands of jeans. Diesel,
True Religion, Se7en, Affliction.
Shorts
When the weather get warm, wearing shorts can be the most practical
choice in outdoor wear. Khaki shorts are fine for the outdoors but keep
the length in mind. If you are overly short, wearing baggy long shorts
will cover too much leg and make you look shorter. When wearing khakis
always shoot for 1 inch below the knees. Their seems to be trend of
receding length in shorts, but short shorts are still far from in style
and will most likely make you appear gay or like your grandfather.
Board shorts work great if the situation allows it. You can generally
tell nicer board shorts by the thread count. The thicker the material,
the higher quality and longer lasting the pair will be. Board shorts
should be worn with sandals. This is a very important rule and should
never be broken
T-shirts
T-shirts have always been in a man’s arsenal. However, it is important
to have a variety of tees for every occasion. A man should always a few
plain white tees he can wear under dress shirts. They don’t have to be
fancy. A simple hanes shirt would do the trick. In picking out a tee
shirt, you first must distinguish a suitable style and size. One of the
biggest mistakes guys make is buying tee shirts that are either too big
or too small for them. The trick is balancing out your body appearance.
If you are thin, a tighter fit around the belly will help make you
appear thicker and more balanced. If you are thicker, a slightly looser
fitting tee shirt will make you appear thinner. In terms of style, you
have a few options but always be weary of a few things. V-necks are
still in style but tend to slowly be receding back up to the neck. If
you own a v-neck or wish to buy a v-neck, make sure it v’s before it
reaches chest line. No one wants to see your man cleavage. Leave that
for the women. Avoid boxy tee shirts, they neglect your body type and
are more geared towards a general public. Stay away from tee shirts with
slogans and sayings. They used to be funny and amusing but now they
simply tacky and out of style. Let’s keep the slogans and catch phrases
where they belong; on bumper stickers.
Although I rarely wear Polo’s, they are still popular and can add
some style to your wardrobe. The same rules apply for buying a polo as
they do for any other shirt or article of clothing, make sure it fits
you well and make sure the color scheme fits into your style. Avoid
overly bright colors unless the rest of your avatar is slightly subdued.
Balance is key. And never, never, pop your collar. This frat boy
fashion mystique has been out of style for a few years and is not coming
back anytime soon.
Button Ups
When buying a button up shirt the first thing you want to consider is
again….how it fits. Always buy button ups that fit snugly below your
chest line. In fact, most good button ups will be slimmer around the
waist than they are around the chest line. This is the tailor fit that
you are going to want to have. Another good way to determine the quality
of a shirt is by thread count. The higher thread count, the higher
quality of shirt it is and the longer it will last. The attractive man
always has a variety of color button ups for every occasion. But out of
any color, a man must have at least one white button up. It is versatile
and can be worn in almost any occasion.
A reminder, unless you are wearing a tie, avoid looking uptight and up
button the very top button. Conversely, don’t unbutton more than two,
showing off all that hair on your chest is tacky and out of style.
Jackets
There are a plethora of different types of jackets. And quite frankly,
there is not enough time nor room for me to mention each kind. But I
will say this. Jackets are the cherry on top of a sundae and have the
ability to make or break your outfit. If you are short, don’t get tailed
jackets or double breasted jackets. If you are taller, it is better to
get jackets that hang just slightly longer. In buying an overcoat make
sure it has enough buttons especially if you aren’t very tall. If you
choose to buy a leather jacket, choose your colors carefully. Black is
safe and more versatile. Brown is rustic and more adventurous. I’m not
going to argue which is better but it is good to know what each stands
for. If you buy a dress jacket make sure the lapels lie flat your chest.
If they bow out, more than likely it is too tight of a fit. And as
mentioned before darker color jackets will make you look thinner, while
lighter color jackets will make you look thicker. Blazers are always in
style. If you can find a nice, navy blazer, you’ll find that it goes
with a wide variety of outfits.
Shoes
Women love shoes and they will pay attention to them. Take some time to
find a couple nice pairs of shoes, black and brown. It’s better they be
stylish than generic. If you really don’t know what to look for, pick up
a copy of GQ magazine, or better yet set up a day date with a woman you
have met to go shoe shopping. It is always a benefit to get a females
opinion for fashion.
Your shoes should always be clean and dirt free. Sneakers should only be
worn when exercising, or casual walking. You should never plan to dress
up if you are going to wear sneakers.
Dress Shoes
Dress shoes can work with jeans and slacks. Black is always classier
than brown but brown is more adventurous. When buying dress shoes or
boots pay attention to the tip of the shoe. Square tips may have been
hot in the 90’s but they out of style now. You are better going off with
round tips. High heels are for women but high heel boots on man can be
the ultimate fashion hit. That is of course if it is done right. In
wearing socks, keep in mind that white socks on solely for exercise and
should be used for nothing else. Your socks should also match your pants
rather than your shoes.
Accessories
Belts are a great way to accessorize. Keep in mind that your shoes
should always match your belt. A nice watch is another great way to
compliment your outfit. A great site for watches is Watchzone.com. You
can also get rings, bracelets and necklaces. They will all add to your
outfit.
