Guys, unfortunately don’t have a lot of options in dressing up like girls. But it doesn’t mean that they can wear anything they hands land on top with close eyes. There are a lot of new things guys can do to look good and catch the eyes of people passing by. But it of course needs little introduction to fashion and a little change in their wardrobe may be. Here are a few things every guy should know about dressing up and also these are a few things that every male should own.
2. Perfectly fitted denim:
All the guys and many girls would agree with me that there is something just very appealing about guys in perfectly fitted jeans. Sure, there are plenty of quality and brands of jeans that are easily available, but the thing that most guys forget to notice while buying one is if the pair fits them correctly. Baggies were once in fashion, but now mostly straight jeans are in fashion. A cheap pair will cut back your points so it is better to invest your money in some less expensive dark and light colored denim, that will also last for a while and will make the girls swoon. If you want something more up to dated and are a little more fashion conscious, step up and start wearing skinny snug fitted pair, they too look amazing on guys. If you are a little heavier than you should try wearing straight legged jeans as they will go perfectly okay with your body.
2. Slacks:
Slacks are one of the necessities for every guy to have in his wardrobe. It is perfect for a formal wear, like work, office, business dinner or even a wedding. You can replace your denim with slacks few days a week. Try getting neutral colors like black, white and gray. These colors go with many button down shirts. Pair them with a nice button down shirt and a sweater some days. A casual coat would even look great with your slacks, as it would give a semi formal look. Go for a flat front as you don’t want baggy front. Slacks look best if they fit right according to lower body.
3. Tea shirts:
Tea shirts are a definitely something every guy needs. Kick off with basic colors like black, white and gray. Just know your complication and decide the color accordingly. If you have red or blue undertone, then definitely go for gray, if you have a warm skin tone, then dark pewter is the right choice and if you are more neutral, more on the pale side than you can decide whatever you like as both light and dark will look good.
You can also add little funky colors of your choice, printed shirts like the striped ones also complement with many clothes. Look and ask people for sure that which style and color looks best on you. You don’t want to short clingy shirts. Also add a few long sleeved shirts for cooler months, long sleeves Henley shirts are the perfect choice.
4. Collared button up shirts:
Collared button up shirt is something that goes well with everything. It can be worn with jeans, slacks, chinos or even trousers or shorts. Crisp white colored button up shirt is something every guy should have. It works whole year round. It can be worn over any Tea shirt with sleeves rolled up to give casual look or worn with a suit and a tie. The quality and fit of these shirts also matter, if you are slim, Hugo Boss will work for you. If you want something unique and different you can ask for custom made shirts online or get them stitched through tailor.
5. Get the size that fits you perfectly:
While choosing a shirt for yourself, make sure to get the size that fits you perfectly. Don’t get anything very tight that it pulls across your back uncomfortably when crossing arms, driving or bending. The size of your sleeves should be perfect too. The seam of your shirt should sit right on the edge of the shoulders and no further. The collar should not dig into your skin when performing daily activities, it should at least be loose enough to allow at least 2 fingers to enter into the neck. Add a few solid colored button up shirts, plain ones are the priority and later you can add little graphic ones like self printed lined or check prints too.
4. Blazer:
Blazer or sports coat is something that adds a little class and style to a guys wardrobe. It is a reflection of the days when men used to wear formal coats and dress pants to their office, but this version is both formal and stylish. It goes great with jeans, dress pants, etc. Even if your office is casual, you might need it to see your boss or see a client at a lunch and even if you don’t, it will add a classy look to your outfit. Your blazer does not have to match any of your specific shirt or pant, it should be something that goes overall with all of your clothes like something in black or gray. Quality should be good, something in leather or coitroi is a good option.
5. Sweater:
There are a large variety of sweaters available. There are simple pullovers and cardigans easily available. But no matter what you decide to buy, never compromise on the quality. Get something that fits you perfectly, sits rightly on the edge of your shoulders and is not baggy especially from your torso. Pullovers are worn over and under many shirts so they should be rightly fitted. Kashmere or Marino wool is something great to be spending money on.
6. Jacket:
Jackets of different varieties are easily available everywhere. The kind you should largely depend on the weather conditions. Here is the list of several kinds of jackets that can be worn which will ensure your style not to get bashed.
- Military style:
This is something which seems to stay always. It is perfect as it is a little vintage, little utilitarian and works with everything on everyone. So go for it. - Leather bomber:
It looks very casual and formal at the same time. It is very masculine, effortless and perfect to be worn over a jeans, polo shirt and boots. It should be in perfect fitting as it looks a lot like a well cut suit so of course should be snug fitted. - Denim Jacket:
Denim jacket is something that never went out of fashion. Support it with some light colored denim for a casual sporty look. - Pea coat:
It is for those who are looking for something better than a full length overcoat, something like a warm, classy jacket, Pea coat is for you.
These are a little things you should know about dressing up, get these items in your wardrobe if you don’t have them already, and see how women will start drooling over you!
