We all have our way of dressing, out go to look. We normally don't even notice the small things we are doing wrong, but that's where I come in. These are some simple but effective changes you can make to up your style to 10!
· Number 1 - Don't wear too many accessories. Accessories are great but there's a limit to anything. A couple bracelets, a nice watch, a couple of rings are plenty. If you're wearing a suit a pocket square and a tie bar you can elevate your look dramatically. I try to match my metals on my accessories also , if I wear silver it's all silver, black all black etc.
· Number 2 - Carrying too much stuff in your pockets can make your outfit look terrible. stuffing your pockets full, a huge wallet with 100 cards, notes, papers and money isn't only unpleasing to the eyes but can also cause you to have back problems in the future. I suggest carrying a minimal slim wallet and putting just what you need in it. I also suggest not wearing one of those bulky cell phone belt clips they just look atrocious. Get yourself a slim cell case. I recommend and nice messenger bag, a cross body back or a nice leather back pack to carry your things in. It will up your style and make you look more put together.
· Number 3 - Not tucking in a dress shirt. Dress shirts have a wide array of uses in the fashion world. You can wear them with jeans, chinos, a suit, etc. But a dress shirt was designed to be tucked in hence the name "dress shirt". The dress shirt is called that because it looks like a dress and it look very unkempt if worn untucked.
· Number 4 - Not matching you shoes and your belt. It is always good to match the color of your shoes to you belt. There are exceptions to that rule like when you wear sneakers. Rule of thumb anytime you wear leather boots or dress shoes always match your leathers. I even take it one step further and match my watch band.
· Number 5 - not wearing undershirts. I'm not talking the tank style "wife beater" undershirts. These have no use ever. I am talking white v neck undershirts. They keep your shirts clean and smelling fresh and they keep sweat stains off of your good shirts. This keeps you from having to wash them as much.
· Number 6 - wearing graphic T-shirts. These are the worst. Wearing a shirt with a huge logo across the front makes you look like you're in middle school. It's ok to wear logos as long as they a very small, maybe a logo on the pocket of a button down shirt.
I hope this helped. If you implement these tips you will be stylish everyday and bring your style to a 10 +!
