When you step out of the house, your clothes advertise much about you. Along with your face and hair, your clothing is one of the first things people will notice and they will judge you quickly on first impressions. When you are at work and about town, it is important to present a confident and capable appearance.
One would think that today's modern man would have good fashion sense already locked away in his brain, but one good look around will tell you differently. Every day, men are committing fashion suicide and this could be costing them at job interviews, meetings with the in-laws, or trying to get that all important phone number from Heather. Don't be that man. Follow these simple rules:
- Pay attention to the shoes you wear. You could have the most amazing outfit, but totally ruin it with dirty or mismatched sneakers.
- Wear clothes that actually fit you. It's not only stupid to walk around holding your pants up, but it looks trashy too.
- Why do all of the work to keep good hygiene, then blow it by wearing dirty or poorly-pressed clothes? Wash your clothes on a regular basis and iron them if they're wrinkly.
- Dress in colors that are flattering to your skin tone. If you have fair skin, it's safe to say you shouldn't be dressing in all black unless you're going for a gothic look.
- Eye color can play a big role in what you choose to wear everyday. If you have blue eyes, you should try wearing blue and green more often to highlight one of your best features.
- If you have pets that shed, keep a lint roller on hand so that your clothes don't look like they are growing fur.
- Don't use undershirts as everyday outerwear. Undershirts are not to be worn alone because they instantly give off the wrong impression if worn in the wrong way.
- Wear socks that match your pants: Black pants = black socks. Brown pants = brown socks.
- Socks are relatively cheap and inexpensive. So why are people walking around with holes in their socks!? Case in point, only wear socks that are hole-free.
- Never wear socks with sandals. This is a cardinal sin of fashion!
- In warmer months, wear light colors in cotton fabrics because they absorb less heat, and will minimize your sweat stains.
- Sometimes men put the perfect outfit together only to ruin it with the wrong winter coat. So it's important to find at least one good coat that goes well with your clothes.
- If you don't own an iron, or just don't like to iron, grab your clothes from the dryer as soon as they are done, and fold them right away. Wrinkles aren't attractive!
