Hi everyone, it has been a long time haven’t written anything. A full-time position already keeps me busy every weekday. In the future, I will try to publish a new blog every weekend. For this week, we are going to discuss the top fashion tips for men and men’s clothing brands. Comment below and follow my Instagram if you do like my post. Let’s get started.
Knowing how to dress up yourself is a kind of art. That means you know how to hide your body flaws and enhance your positive attributes but also understanding how to appreciate clothing and fashion. If you are on the path to learning about all these, you should learn more about your body shape or type and getting constructive comments from your friends or fashion experts. In this blog, I will provide you with some basic top fashion tips for men and in my next blog, I will cover different regions guys’ wearing styles and top brands to shop from.
Everyone Can Dress Better
Don’t let your past or people’s words affect you from improving your dress style or fashion looks. If you have the mindset or motivation for improving your fashion looks, there is a way to get better.
Understand Your Body Shape
Everyone should learn about their body shapes or types because no one has a perfect body shape. For those who dress better than you, they just know their body shape better. We should learn how to hide our body flaws and to enhance positive attributes. For example, I am not too tall but I have a pair of relatively longer legs than people who have a similar height to me. When I pick my outfit I would usually choose shorter tops to show my longer pair of legs. Thus, people will think I am even taller because of the ratio of legs and upper body parts. The perfect ratio is also called the golden ratio, which is about 1.62: 1.0.
Learn by Looking
Any skill set can not be built in one night. The same does dressing better. What you can do is first observing other clothing styles. By observing others, you will understand what looks good on one person and what does not look good on that person. The other way to learn dressing better is to read magazines. You can subscribe to a men’s fashion magazine. Few well-known fashion magazines are GQ, Men’s Vogue, and Men’s Journal. Magazines help you getting a better understanding of what is trendy at the moment.
Learn by Practicing
The more you practice, the better you get. It’s the same for fashion. You improve while you practice. Every single store or brand has its style. First, find a few stores that match your preference or your style. Know your budget and shop smarter. For every clothing brand, it has sales or occasionally special deals. Know better about those occasions and better deals. Also, when you should for every single piece of clothing, think about how to match it with your existing clothing. For example, when I shop for a tee, tops, or a t-shirt, I would like to think about what bottoms I have at home can match with it. Otherwise, when you buy a top, you find that there is no single bottom piece that can go with the top. That will be a waste of money, the new clothing will just sit in the closet.
Get Constructive Fashion Advice or Recommendations from Fashion Experts
Among all your friends, there is a friend who knows the most about fashion and knows how to style himself. I would recommend you having more conversations with that person and getting some constructive fashion advice or comments from him or her. Here, I am talking about constructive advice or recommendations. If there is no one in your life can help you in fashion, I guess you can reach out to fashion consultant, fashion stylist, and online resources.
Keep Yourself Fit
If you have a hard time finding the ideal clothing that you can put on, you might need to reconsider where is the issue. If the problem comes from your body shape, like obesity, you should think do you want to keep yourself fit through working out. I have to say it is a lot easier to find clothing when you are in fit body shape than chubby body shape. If that is the case, you should lose some weight and keep your body fit before purchasing a lot of clothing to improve your fashion style. I recommend eating healthier and doing more fitness to keep fit, which prevents from rebounding.
