Men's daily fashion rules

Ok, my girl-friends asked me to do this article. I’m not a fashionista myself but at least (I think) I dress pretty much acceptable to their standards. A while back, I posted something on my Facebook wall about simple fashion rules from www.PinoyGuyGuide.com and that was when they asked me to write this so here goes.

Ever wonder why girls dig James Bond? Well, aside that he knows how to kick the asses of bad guys, he also dresses smart. So aside from the things that I read in PGG, here are my additional points and tips on wearing the “killer looks” on a daily basis.

• Leather goods in your outfit should be of the same color. Never wear a brown belt with black shoes or vice versa.  This is a universal rule so don’t argue. You need to take note as well that if you are wearing a leather strapped watch, it should go with your shoes’ and your belt’s color, this goes out with leather bags as well.

• Never wear brown pants with green top. Not unless you want to look like a tree.

• Get rid of the BFD or Bad-Fit-Disease. Seriously, if you can cope with this and wearing clothes that perfectly fit your body (not loose and not too tight), you’ll make a simple shirt into a designer piece. One guide I follow is that, the shoulder cut of your shirt should be aligned to your shoulders.

• Checkered + Stripes = Game board. Now, if you don’t want to look like a giant chess board, checkered or stripes top should be worn with plain pants or vice versa. Too much of it equals checkmate!

• Invest in a fancy watch. Watch is the only acceptable jewellery that a guy can wear, and besides what would the ladies think if you’re not aware of your time?

• Invest in shoes. A good pair of kicks can make you or break you. Be it a sneakers for casual or leather for those formal occasions, the shoes will make the man.

• Be neat and clean. Remember, body odor and bad breath is a MAJOR TURN OFF. So before you leave your place, don’t forget that it pays to smell good.

So there goes the list that I follow almost everyday. I hope these pointers will help you in how to choose your clothes daily. Ladies, I hope this will help your man ;)
