Men’s Fashion 101: HOW TO 𝑫𝑹𝑬𝑺𝑺 BETTER
(Become the man who turns heads)

1. Fit clothes
The biggest style mistake men make is wearing clothes that don’t fit and flatter their build.
For example, most men wear pants that are 2-3 inches too long for them (especially shorter guys).

Other common problems include sleeves that are too long, shirts that are too wide, pants that are too baggy and suits that are too big all around.
The vast majority of these problems can be fixed by sizing down.
2. Wear Fewer Colors
Some guys love combining multiple bright, vibrant colors for fun, stylish and eye-catching looks.
They just feel good wearing these kinds of outfits.
But most guys only wear colorful clothing because they don’t really know what else to wear.
The fact is, bright, colorful pieces are harder to combine into outfits.
They’re harder to pair with the rest of your wardrobe.
when it comes to color, less is more. When in doubt, stick with one pop of color per outfit.
3. Wear Fewer Patterns
Combining different patterns that have multiple colors in them can be VERY tough, even for experienced fashionist.
My advice? Stick with solid colors for a while.
This is the best way to minimize potential mismatches.
4. Good Tailor
Maybe you have jeans that are too long or a shirt that looks too baggy on you.
You don’t want to get rid of these pieces.
After all, you paid good money for them, & they still have plenty of life left in them.
So what do you do? You take them to the tailor and get them altered for a better fit.
Tailoring is the secret weapon of stylish men.
Getting your clothes tailored can literally be a life changing experience.
5. Better Shoes
Most men are wearing the wrong shoes at the wrong time.
I see guys wearing athletic shoes with casual outfits or casual shoes to business casual offices, or even the dreaded flip-flops-with-jeans look.

You should wear shoes that are appropriate for the occasion.
Just remember: your shoes work hard. So make sure they’re working for you, not against you.
6. Add an Accessory
One of the easiest and most effective ways to dress up an outfit is by adding accessories.
I’m talking about watches, ties, pocket squares, bracelets, rings and hats.
Even a boring outfit can be transformed and elevated with accessories.

My go-to accessories are watches and sunglasses.
These are super practical and look great with any type of outfit, no matter how casual or formal it is.
A simple cuff style bracelet is also a great accessory for men.
7. Remove an Accessory
Be careful with that last tip, my friend.
It’s easy to go overboard with accessories, especially when you first start getting into men’s style.
Go with 2-3 tasteful accessories, max (watch + tie + sunglasses).
When in doubt, just remember that less in more.
Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.
8. Learn the Dress Code
Great style is like a great referee: it shouldn’t make mistakes.
So much of dressing well is just dressing appropriately for the occasion.
