Everybody loves courteous people, we – as in the collective global woman -love gentlemen out of question. One need to be good manner and be able to leave a good impression to others, which, frankly speaking, rely on how he is suiting up. There are always many good means to make a great appearance, and unfortunately, also many ways to ruin your appearance.
  • Socks and sandals: they’re about as compatible as weddings and rain. So please avoid this disastrous combination at all costs. Pick a side, guys – either wear sandals or wear your socks with tennis shoes. We’re not digging that look at all.
  • Step away from your teenage son’s closet; nice and slow and there won’t be any problems. You’re not his “bud” and you’re not 18 anymore; and that’s OK. Take the plunge – adulthood isn’t quite as bad as it seems. For a grown-up casual look, consider the Ralph Lauren Polo T-Shirt.

  • Yeah, we’re impressed with the results from your five-days-a-week workout – but really, the tight tee-shirt isn’t necessary. We see it. You’re powerful. You’re strong. You’re the hero. Please – allow our imaginations a bit of fair play. A great tee that shows off your best features? Try the Classic D&G T-Shirt.

  • No Novelty Allowed! That should be a sign in every man’s closet that has a penchant for novelty clothes (think flashing ties and tees with bow tie graphics).
  • We’re all about those days that were made for wearing sweats. We live for them as much as you do. The kicker, though, is your insistence to wear the sweats complete with ketchup stains (or chocolate, beer…pick your stain). It doesn’t reveal a sexy devil-may-care attitude you’re hoping for; instead, it reveals a, “Hey? Wanna do my laundry?” approach. Instead, don this Abercrombie Fitch hoodies and you might just have volunteers to do your laundry before the day’s over.
  • If it doesn’t fit, consider staying its lifetime sentence in your closet. Give it to charity or pass it on to a friend who can wear it.
  • Let’s bring it full circle with another thought on socks – white sports socks not allowed with dress trousers! Not ever. Seriously – it’s a law. Somewhere. Casual pants like khakis or anything dressier requires the appropriate socks.
  • To be a gentlemen, keep these tips in mind to suit up- with the solemn promise to never break them.

Many people, especially women, are strugling their lives to becoming more and more beautiful counting on fashionably dressed. They buy a latest dress with their whole month wage, shop all weekend for a suitable sweater for their dust coat. But it seems that many of them will never be satisfied, let alone others'.

So, how to dress to become a beauty? Here is some tips for you to retain the strengths and discard the weaknesses.

Large Hips: Draw attention away from childbearin' hips by wearing solid, deep colors on the bottom with light or bright colors on top. Instead of tapered leg jeans or pants, try relaxed fit bottoms with a bootcut leg. Stay away from garments that have excessive pockets or details at the hipline. Say no to straight skirts, opting instead for an A-line silhouette. Oh, and lest we forget, avoid pleats like the plague.

Small Bust: To appear a bit fuller on top, wear shirts that have details or pockets at the bustline. Layering is another strategy that works: Try a cute tank top under a cardigan or button-down shirt. Floaty, loose-fitting blouses are also an excellent choice, but be sure to avoid plunging necklines.

Large Bust: A little too well-endowed? Try open necklines like V-necks and U-necks. Super-clingy fabrics should be avoided, as should large patterns and prints. As far as sleeves go, opt for those that are long or elbow-length. Avoid short capped sleeves.

Broad Shoulders: If you have wide, strong shoulders, stay away from shoulder pads, boat necks, horizontal stripes and boxy sleeves. Try V-necks, which pull the eye down and away from the problem area.

Large Stomach/Waist: Avoid snug waistbands and the "tucked in" look if you're thick around the middle. Also stay away from straight skirts and fabrics that cling over the stomach. Dresses with empire waistlines are a good choice, as are graceful A-line skirts.

Too Short: Petite girls who wish to appear more elongated should try short skirts, clamdiggers and capri pants. Avoid busy prints and cuffed pants, and try not to chop up the body with contrasting bold colors. Stay away from garments that are bulky or oversized, such as puffy bubble jackets.

Too Tall: Don't hunch over! Tall women who want to de-emphasize their height can do so by wearing horizontal patterns, textured fabrics, and longer or flared skirts. Short skirts can work as well, especially when paired with knee-high boots.

Overall Heaviness: The hype is completely true: black is a very slenderizing color. Dark, solid colors tend to be quite slimming in general, but this certainly doesn't mean that larger girls should stay away from bright or light shades. Loud prints should be avoided at all costs, however, as should oversize "tentlike" clothes, which make it obvious that you're trying to hide something. Opt instead for well-fitting, tailored looks that cling in all the right places-but just not too tightly.

Nobody can imagine the endless online sales for everything from boats to toothbrushes to men’s fashion five or ten years ago. Surprisingly, it does take a bit more than a strong fortitude and completing your transactions in your pajamas nowadays. Shopping online seems to be the latest trend and a good way to follow fashion. That's probably why more and more people are spending money online. Honestly, I don’t know how I survived all those frantic holiday seasons before I was offered the magic of online shopping. Take heed, online shoppers - here’s the best of the best online shopping tips:
  • Double check and then triple check the online merchant’s return policy. No matter how good the deal, if you can’t return it, you’re defeating your purpose.
  • While you’re checking the return policy, you’ll also want to ensure there are no stipulations that you must make returns in an actual store. Again, you’re defeating the purpose and if there is something you need to return, you’ll swear you’re standing in line on Christmas Eve.
  • A great sale doesn’t always equate to a great buy. Make a list of who you’re buying for and include that perfect gift you made a note of last October when your sister mentioned the latest Ed jeans she wants. Stick to the plan and avoid the jumper that’s 90% off from three seasons ago. You’re not doing anyone any favors.
  • Ensure your orders will arrive in time for Christmas. Also, make sure there’s a phone number and a physical address in the website’s ‘About Us’ information. Don’t get scammed; it only leads to ill feelings. You’ll have everyone convinced you’re capable of bringing even Scrooge to his knees.
  • Pay attention to discount codes. Many online retailers offer additional savings if you enter coupon codes. Often, these codes are easy to locate in a banner on the site’s home page. Even if it’s a 5% discount, it’s worth the additional thirty seconds to double check the home page for additional savings.
  • For me, the temptation is often too much and I discover I’m even buying wrapping paper and scotch tape from an online discount store. I’ve made a deal with myself, though. If free shipping isn’t offered, I don’t buy these types of merchandise online or at least, I only buy them if I already have gifts in my electronic shopping cart. If I’m not careful, I discover I’ve spent more in shipping costs than the total of the order. I mean seriously, who am I really hurting if I buy fifteen rolls of scotch tape just to ensure the shipping costs are less than the actual purchase?
Finally, go with your instinct. If a site looks hokey, steer clear. If its policies aren’t transparent, steer clear. The goal is to wrap up your Christmas and holiday shopping with as little stress - and rolls of scotch tape -as possible. Or name it "surviving in the online fashion rush".

Somebody think that fashion is nothing more than just gorgeous appearance, especially fashion clothing. But the interior called the fabric plays an very important role here. That’s why suppliers often, in their product descriptions, provide the fabrics used by the design labels. Now it is a good time to provide a bit of insight as to what those fabrics are and other logistics associated with using them in men’s clothing.
  • Cotton – Of course, this is the most commonly used material in not only men’s casual clothing, but casual clothing as a whole. It’s a readily available commodity, comfortable, easy to launder and breathable. It’s a can’t miss fabric that’s been used through the ages.
  • Angora – What many may not be aware of is its origin from the angora rabbit. It’s most often combined with wool to lower the retail pricing, but it’s quite comfortable and luxurious feeling. It’s fluffy and can sometime shed. It’s most often found in gloves, scares and hats, but can sometimes be found in tailor-made suits.
  • Barathea – This is indicative of silk or rayon combined with cotton or wool. It presents with a fine texture and “pebbled” surface. Most often found in men’s formal wear.
  • Beaver cloth – This is a wool with a heavy nap that’s considered very warm wearing. It’s quite elegant and is usually chemically altered to ensure a glossy shine. Usually found in heavier winter coats.
  • Camel Hair – As the name implies, it’s fiber from a camel and is usually blended with wool for additional softness.
  • Flannel – Usually a combination of cotton and twill. It’s a hearty fabric that is used in cold weather. Quite popular with hunters.
  • Canvas – Linen (yes, really) and cotton blend that’s used in some heavy winter coats used by fishermen and others who spend considerable time in the rough outdoors.
[caption id="attachment_73" align="alignnone" width="150" caption="micsourcing apparel"]micsourcing apparel[/caption] Of course, these are just a few of the many fiber combinations that are used in the clothing industry. But enough to make a named fashion. Partly reshipped from: blog.micsourcing.com Author: izzy from Micsourcing.com

We all have some sort of cardigan in our closet, but this winter has welcomed the grey fashion into our lives. From cotton knits to double-breasted styles to hugely oversized- it seems geek chic has taken a new turn and found inspiration in our old grandpa who appears to be with his grey cardigan all through the winter. And now for the grey cardigan, matched with leggings, high-waisted jeans or even lace tights - the cardigan allows for huge layering potential - and this can often obliterate the need for a huge heavy winter coat. Strive to a grey awesome look. Or let yourself reminisce over your schooldays, by pairing knee socks with a more oversized style. Check out the piles of sweaters online or flea markets for an Abercrombie Fitch "grey" cardigan. [caption id="attachment_120" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Abercrombie Fitch Sweater"]Abercrombie Fitch Sweater[/caption] It may be that no one will ever succeed in wearing the cardigan as well as our grandpa who stay in the yard all day long in quiet and peace, but winter is beckoning for us all to try this trend out. So, go for the old, or the oversized or both - just be sure to always do it grey way. Make your own style. Partly reshipped from: blog.micsourcing.com Author: izzy from Micsourcing.com

Pretty ladies are evils, they wear everything in trend no matter wherever they are and whatever they do. UGG can be a good examble. How much of this fashion statement they are is debatable, but one thing is for sure, chics–you have to know how to wear them and wear them in a way that looks best on you, not on your favorite celebration.
UGG UGG
1 Get the right ones. Pick a pair of UGGs in the color and style that best fits your lifestyle. They come in a slew of styles, from plain and lace-up to knee-highs, clogs and slippers. Depending on what you plan on wearing them for, you can have a whole collection of UGGs. 2 Choose the occasions. Wearing them with skinny jeans (if you are a female) seems to be the latest craze, but UGGs can be worn with any type of jean. However, contrary to popular opinion, the traditional UGG is not accepted as appropriate office wear, for nice restaurants or as a replacement for truly stylish footwear. The UGG was created for comfort as a work shoe and to wear around the house on colder days to keep the feet toasty. It was not created to wear with business suits or nice dresses and looks ridiculous when paired with things like that. 3 No heavier legs plz. Although women wear UGG boots with shorts and skirts, it really isn’t a good look, particularly if your legs are heavier. The clunky style of the boot makes your legs look heavier than they are, which is never a good fashion statement. While the boots are often worn by surfers who don them to warm up their feet after being in the cold water, the concept of wearing them with a mini-skirt to walk around Melrose Avenue in LA is silly, no matter what the fashionistas say. It looks just plain messy and lazy, particularly when you’re talking about wearing sheepskin-lined boots in 80 degrees. 4 Stay away from wet. You shouldn’t wear UGGs in wet or muddy conditions. While they are warm, they do not have water-repellent qualities and will instead absorb and hold the moisture. 5 Color. Choose the color of UGGs with care, as lighter UGGs will look dirty more quickly. Because they are worn outside of pants, you can’t hide a dirty UGG.

I've heard this from my brother who is on his twenties and some of my close male friends and even worse, my boyfriend(of course not derictly) . You probably think most of them are single and therefore, have a lot of hatred for Valentine's Day, uhah? The answer is absolutely not. I did some interview about this with them. Here is their idea: really like to see their girlfriends to be pretty, you know, dress nicely in a french restaraut with them on that special day for all lovers in the world. But they can't stop from thinking about what is the meaning of the Day and the Valentine Day's dress. They just don’t feel the need to go out and spend a bunch of money on flowers, candy, food, etc. Boys really like keeping things quiet and on a budget. On the other hand, really need a reason to go out and celebrate, to enjoy themselves together, maybe in a movie theatre or someplace nice... [caption id="attachment_186" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Valentine's Day"]Valentine's Day[/caption] Anyway, here comes the biggest problem, their dressing. Girls are the experts on fashion and dressing stuff, the same things will just easily make boys freak out. Polo-T shirts , jeans or suits? What on earth is the perfect Valentine’s Day dress for men? I, as a girl, haven't think enough about my own dressing, so have got no time to give them suggestions. So I am here to do them a favor to ask if any men here has started thinking about it and if yes, what have you got?

We need a celebration, if you, a man, has survived high school, which, to our common sense, is a seemly endless disaster because of the cafeteria drama, patronizing teachers, and boring algebra textbooks etc. That's probably why men don't like cardigan, since nobody would like to be told to get back on the train to Charlotte Catholic.
So you think you are entitled to treat cardigans like your children? I mean, sometimes you cherish them, remember the time how you wish to be with them everyday? other times you just throw 'em in a pile at the back of a closet and forget their existence. [caption id="attachment_220" align="aligncenter" width="221" caption="cardigan"]cardigan[/caption]
Oh no, man, don't be silly! Why on earth would that make any sense for you to do that? it is not cardigan's fault! Now it is time for you survivors to appreciate something like Abercrombie fitch cardigan, which is not loud, not gaudy, not to spur images of stuffy Bostonian prep boys. Just a comfy, smooth piece to help you get rid of the nightmare of sentimental and unconfident and get into the men's fashion of manture and self-assurance. Author: izzy from micsourcing.com

Many people equals the "made in China" with low prices and rough work. But admit it, your expensive gorgeous Coach is very like the exact thing made in China! Actually, It is not just Coach that moved its factory to China, many designer houses have also moved. Forget about the "made in Italy", the fact is, many designers have the majority of their bag made in China and then some finishing touches are completed in Italy etc. And this renders a Made in Italy stamp? I don't think so.

Either way, Coach exotic purses already has fans in Rebecca Romijn, Mandy Moore, and Eva Longoria, who was seen wearing a hot blue number paired with her Coach Python Miranda. Many shoppers say they would not splurge on an exotic bag from Coach, but Eva seems to love this bag! eva-longoria-coach-python-bag_thumbnail So would you ever buy a Coach exotic? Do you look down upon brands that move their companies overseas but with lower cost and superb quality based on their decades experiences, like to China?

A wise man once said “I’m pretty sure there’s a lot more to life than being really, really good looking” (Derek Zoolander, 2001). After viewing those news related to hoodies, I would have to say that is false!! david hoodie The beautiful Beckhams made an appearance the other night at the David Beckham and James Bond Adidas Originals launch party in LA. David wore this casual but sporty gray pullover hoodie, which he matched with a collar shirt and tie. hugh jackman hoodie Hugh's clean gray zip-up hoodie looks great with its white drawstrings. If the suave Hugh Jackman can wear a hoodie and still look classy, there is definitely hope for the rest of us! Obviously, hoodie is not for the individual, belonging from a specific class or profession, but it suits to all the individuals, no matter from which background or walk of life they belong. If you are wearing a hoodie, then you are all set to step out of your homes and you will see that people are really going to get impressed by you.

There are two things that always in fashion, woman and jeans. Admit it, man, they are also two of the most important things in your life. Some times, a perfect pair of jeans is more difficult to get, whether it’s the wash, fit, length or even the right fit with the right length. Here are some helpful tips for the perfect boot cut, skinny, and straight leg jeans. jeans 1. Boot cut These jeans really elongate the legs. So wearing them high will make your body look disproportionate (you should not wear your jeans high up at the waist or too low below your butt; jeans should just hang on the hips, that is for all the fits). This fit should not suffocate the thigh because they do flare out, they should be loose but still fitted. The length should be long enough to cover the shoe but not drag on the floor and there should be a scrunch, like Abercrombie & Fitch. If not, it will make you look like a dork. cam gigandet boot cut jeans 2. Skinny Skinny jeans should not be too tight nor too loose, hence the name. Unlike the other fits, these do not always need a scrunch. But they should cover your ankles. Also, you should not get jeans so tight that you are bulging out of the top your jeans and unable to move in them. If you are going to resort to women’s jeans, keep the pockets simple, such as Levi's. Keep the embellishments to the women (if they even prefer it). Also, skinny jeans are not for everyone. You should have a lean stature to pull these off. Zac Efron skinny jeans 3. Straight leg The most relaxed of the three. These are also the cut I find to be the trickiest fit. They can be straight on some but skinny on others. They tend to box out the body more when worn loose, but flatter when worn fitted. When searching for straight legs get the prefect length. The scrunch will give somewhat of an illusion of not being so straight. Make sure they are not too tight in the butt and thighs area, they need to be a perfect fit to achieve the perfect straight leg fit. Hayden Christenson straight leg jeans So when looking for the best jeans, make sure it fits on the hips but loose enough to just hang. The length should never be too short. It is better to get it too long and get them tailored, than walk around with visible socks. Simple is the key when it comes to jeans and that goes for everyone. Also, don’t follow trends. Just because someone is able to pull off a fit, doesn’t always mean you’ll look good in that fit too. Lastly, great jeans are everywhere, you don’t need to splurge for the perfect pair. When your jeans fit, you will always feel good about yourself. Partly reshipped from: blog.micsourcing.com Author: izzy from Micsourcing.com

As a boots lover, does the thought of spring leaves you worrying about boots withdrawal? Don't worry, there are UGGs boots for spring. But will people treat you like a freak by then? If you have never mind before, do not worry, I will command one kind of boots to you –UGG cardy for 2010 spring. ugg cardy 2010 spring Many women wear cardy ugg boots with jeans--another look suitable for cold weather. Choose skinny pants that can be tucked into the Uggs without creating fabric bulges right above the boot. Add a little pizazz to this look by wearing the boots with jeans or long pants in a contrasting color. For instance, pair cream-colored Cardys with black pants or wear grey boots with white denim. This combination works particularly well when worn under a pea coat or medium length trench coat. You can dress it up with jewelry or add a casual touch by throwing on a pageboy cap or a beret. ugg_cardy Wear your boots with shorts or skirts that end at or above the knee. Keep in mind that wearing Cardy Uggs fully buttoned up, which will result in the boot ending at the calf, with garments that extend below the knee can visually shorten your legs. Tall women can wear ugg classic tall. The row of buttons on Cardy Uggs allow you to adjust the height of the boot, creating a customized look. For casual looks, undo one or two of the buttons to create a slouchy look, or partially fold down the upper part of the boot. For a more polished look, wear the boot all the way up with the buttons closed. However you choose to wear your Cardys, keep in mind that these boots are not waterproof and, ideally, should be worn in dry weather. uggs CARDY SPRING Along time, Ugg Cardy is many beautiful women’s favorites. As one said: Seeing this new pair of shoes, what is in your mind? Cute? Warm? Comfortable? To be honest, when I saw this pair of ugg Australia cardy boots, I was extremely charmed by them, and I had an intense feeling of getting one pair for the coming warm spring.

Let's make this clear that nobady would has problems with shirts, as I must admit I am a MASSIVE FAN of tees. But I am not one for formal shirts, the thick casual variety check shirts you can dress up or down for day or night are perfect in my eyes. Things to remember when you are on the look out for a check shirt are obviously quality and fit, but also bold patterns and colours. You can wear a bright bold red/blue combinations or more subtle black or white checks. Either way, they will make you stand out and look perfect with a dark pair of jeans and some boots. Abcrombie & Fitch check shirts Personally when wearing a casual check shirt I would look to fold the sleeves up to give you that rugged manly look. Use a two fold technique where you fold the cuff back once and then fold the sleeve once more on top of that. If your shirt fits correctly, the sleeves should then stay folded just lower than your elbow. For those that like it just above the elbow (or sleeves are still not tight enough) PUSH the sleeve from the bottom of the fold to just above the elbow joint. Try not to fold again as it can damage the fibres within the shirt and cause it to become worn out too quickly. The same goes with rolling shirt sleeves up as well, as these small rolls cause tension and can make your sleeves fit incorrectly in the future. checkshirt Remember you can dress the shirt up or down with the right accessories. If going for a casual look then layer up by adding a basic plain v-neck t-shirt underneath and wearing some comfort jeans with a pair of worker boots. This will give you that manly “manual worker effect” but also be very comfortable for day wear. When dressing up for a night out you might layer slightly differently with a plain chunky cardigan over the top or a nice leather jacket which should frame the shirt and contrast well with the bold pattern of the shirt underneath. Add a great pair of shoes and some slim fit jeans and you are good to go all night. What I love best about the check shirt is that it is a fashion statement all on it’s own. If you pick a bright colour combination and pattern then you do not need anything else for it to make people look at you. Take a look at some of my favourites from the current season below.

With the increasing popularity of fashion industry, many people have thrown themselves into the situation of spending money without limit. Compared with women's fashion, which has a longer history and wider persive, men's fashion seems to be much more expensive and sophisticated. It usually cost much more money and time. So here comes a question for all men in fashion: what is the most affordable fashion for you, in respect of both money and time? abercrombie fitch men's shirt I bet you are reluctant to admit it is T-Shirt. You doubt about your fashion tast when you wear nothing but T-Shirt, which seems to be a symbol of casual and informal. Well, it doesn’t mean that you have poor style. If you know how to wear t-shirts well, can keep them in good condition and will get rid of your older, more worn t-shirts, you can have great style for far less than many other types of clothing would cost. D&G men's t-shirt 1. If you only wear t-shirts, it’s important to keep them in good condition. With a worn, old t-shirt, it’s easy to look sloppy and far too casual for many situations. Keep your t-shirts in good condition by washing them only as often as you need to and using pre-treating stain removers to get out the worst stains. 2. Keep white t-shirts looking great by occasionally washing them with bleach. This will keep them looking bright white instead of getting dingy over time. Using some baking soda in the wash can also help them to look their best and whitest. If you sweat a lot, consider wearing a t-shirt under your white t-shirt to keep the underarm’s from looking yellowed and stiff. 3. Most t-shirts will last a long time and through many washes. By taking good care for t-shirt, it can last 50, 60 washes or more. However, there comes a time when a t-shirt should be discarded and replaced with a brand-new one. If your entire wardrobe is t-shirts, it’s a good idea to occasionally look through your shirts and make sure that they are all in good, wearable condition. If they have holes in them that are noticeable, it’s best to get rid of the shirt. If you have t-shirts that are stained and you’ve tried in vain to get the stains out with no success, it’s best to get rid of those shirts as well. 4. Just because you wear t-shirts only, it doesn’t mean that you always look casual. It’s easy to dress up t-shirts with a fitted blazer and a nice pair of pants. A t-shirt, slacks and a pair of high heels or dress shoes look dressy as well as being comfortable. Make sure to coordinate the color of your t-shirt, pants, jacket and shoes. Even if the shirt is in good shape, it will not look its best if it is worn with clashing colors. Stick with an overall group of colors in your outfit. For instance, an outfit can have an earth-tone theme with a green t-shirt, brown pants and dark brown shoes. Or, you can have a citrus theme with a yellow t-shirt, an orange skirt and yellow flats. men's T-shirt If you take some care with the way you look and you take good care of your t-shirts, you can have impeccable style while wearing nothing but t-shirts every day. You can be the envy of your friends because you always look so well put together without having spent a fortune and heaps of time on your wardrobe. With a little work, your style can easily rate a 10. Author: izzy from micsourcing.com Partly reshipped from: blog.micsourcing.com

As we discussed, shirt is the most affordable fashion for everyone, which donesn't necessarily mean that it is cheap and deserve no good care. In fact, you want to be able to wear that shirt over and over again, and get as much value out of it as possible. So there is no reason for you to treat your shirts any differently to any other expensive item you buy. Remember, a good shirt will last through many seasons and years if it is a classic style that transcends trends. [caption id="attachment_429" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="how to roll shirt sleeves"]how to roll shirt sleeves[/caption] There are 4 main types of rolling/folding a shirt for a fashion look. I would recommended you check out the figures and descriptions below and prolong the lifetime of your shirts from today. Don’t throw money away, it can be better spent on another item for your wardrobe than replacing items you already own. Figure 1 With a long sleeve it’s better to fold than roll, stopping just below the angle of your elbow. It looks sharper and won’t crush your shirts fibres. [caption id="attachment_430" align="aligncenter" width="169" caption="CHECK SHIRT ROLL SLEEVES"]CHECK SHIRT ROLL SLEEVES[/caption] Figure 2 With short sleeves, rolling adds a classic bit of rock to your look. A couple of small turns will do – you don’t want to look like a sleeveless wonder after all. [caption id="attachment_431" align="aligncenter" width="293" caption="roll sleeve"]roll sleeve[/caption] Figure 3 Under a blouson jacket is one of the coolest ways to fold your sleeves. With the cuff done up, push up the sleeves on the jacket to just below the elbow and then fold the sleeve until it covers the ribbing. [caption id="attachment_432" align="aligncenter" width="221" caption="shirt roll sleeves"]shirt roll sleeves[/caption] Figure 4 If that sounds like a lot of effort, then All Saints and a few other designers have started making pre-folded shirts which are normally held in place by a popper or small button. [caption id="attachment_433" align="aligncenter" width="235" caption="shirt roll sleeve"]shirt roll sleeve[/caption] By rolling or stuffing your shirt sleeves up – whether your just hot in the office or for a fashion look, you are damaging all the carefully crafted fibres in your shirt sleeves which gives your shirt it’s shape, colour and fit. Do this too many times and the fabric where you have rolled the shirt will become worn and thin (maybe producing holes or just a lousy fit) and you will have to replace it that much sooner.

The most elegant style for man is and will always be the polo shirt. I can’t remember the last time that polo was particularly big in men’s fashion, and I don’t really know what I feel about it at present, because it is always in fashion, just look at those elegant men around you. Polo hasn’t completely launched in a large scale within the shops yet, but there are definitely pieces filtering through from all the big fashion houses and what I have seen so far has been great. [caption id="attachment_456" align="aligncenter" width="240" caption="Ralph Lauren Polo"]Ralph Lauren Polo[/caption] To wear polo and carry it off, you definitely have to have some swag and be very confident in yourself. It’s a very metro sexual look and so if you are too much of a pretty boy then I would consider staying away, as you might give off the wrong impression. I think this look works very well on males who give off a very strong sexuality and those who have very manly features. If you pull of this properly, not only will you look on trend, but you will have women flocking and this is a personal guarantee. It oozes confidence in yourself and your style. [caption id="attachment_457" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Polo"]Polo[/caption] I would make the recommendation that you don’t go over the top with it. If you are going to rock the shirt and pull it off properly, wear muted trousers and shoes. You don’t need a jacket or anything else within your outfit to scream “look at me!”, because you will already be subtly different to 99% of the male population. [caption id="attachment_458" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Ralph Lauren Polo"]Ralph Lauren Polo[/caption] Ralph Lauren have REALLY got behind the trend right away with many of their shirts available already. As you know, they are great shirt designers and make quality garments, so these are perfect for this season as formal or casual wear. Remember you can rock this in the office on sunny days!

There is probably no clothing that can be worn with greater ease and always keep in style than the polo shirt. These short sleeved collared shirts give style, sophistication, and comfort all at the same time. When considering what to wear with your polo shirt, just look in your closet and drawers because chances are you already have a number of different options just waiting to be discovered. [caption id="attachment_489" align="aligncenter" width="235" caption="POLO"]POLO[/caption] Polo shirts can be worn on a casual and a semi-formal basis and have you looking good for either occasion. Here are some ways that you can dress up your polo shirts: • Jeans: No matter what kind of jeans you like, a polo shirt will compliment them. If you are going for a more casual look then you will want to leave you polo shirt untucked and you can even wear a pair of flip-flops to really state your casualness. If however you want to be a bit on the dressier side then tuck in your polo shirt, wear a belt, and wear a nice casual pair of shoes but not sneakers. [caption id="attachment_490" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="polo & jeans"]polo & jeans[/caption] • Khakis: Khaki pants and a tucked in polo shirt are the perfect combination for your office ’s casual Friday. The fact that the polo shirt is collared still lends to the fact that it is somewhat formal, but at the same time it is short sleeved and therefore casual. It is a true win, win. Finish off the look with your regular dress shoes and you will be set for a casual day at the office or anywhere else you decide to go. [caption id="attachment_491" align="aligncenter" width="235" caption="Khaki-pants-and-polo-shirts"]Khaki-pants-and-polo-shirts[/caption] • Shorts: Guys can be seen all over these days wearing cargo shorts and an untucked polo shirt. This look is usually finished off with a pair of flip-flops or sandals and because it is such a big casual statement it is the perfect opportunity to wear a baseball cap as well. The only time that you will want to tuck in your polo shirt with shorts on is if you are at the golf course, in which case you will be wearing a fancier golf style pair of shorts. [caption id="attachment_492" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="shorts & polo shirts"]shorts & polo shirts[/caption] Polo shirts are great and chances are that you have one or two right now hanging in your closet. By mixing and matching them with other garment you already own, you can go out and about in complete comfort and style. Author: izzy from micsourcing.com

Personally, the vampire in twilight is on the top of my list, and yes, I can see the sneer on your face, which says that how else can Robert Pattinson crack a best dressed list? Well, the “guy with the hair” suddenly became more interesting and maybe I had jumped to conclusions because I can’t stand anything to do with sexy Vampire movies! [caption id="attachment_538" align="aligncenter" width="279" caption="Robert Pattinson"]Robert Pattinson[/caption] However, I don’t think the 23-year-old British actor’s hair was the only thing bringing him into the public eye. Just look at the images above, He has hit a lot of the major trends we saw last year on the head with everything from worker boots, chino’s, checked shirts/overshirts and even quilting. I think he has definitely become a role model to the younger generation who want an edgy and bang on trend style, which has been described as ‘emo and ’90’s grunge’ by many different magazines, he dresses his age when in casual situations but can also look very sharp when it comes to public appearances and premieres. [caption id="attachment_539" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="mens shirt"]mens shirt[/caption] I would say that this is the type of guy who probably doesn’t have a stylist on a daily basis which makes his look even better in my eyes. He definitely seems to have effortless cool and a unconcern attitude which I think works in his own personal look. He knows and follows fashion a little more than he let’s on, but this is a prime example of dressing for YOU and pulling it off. He is never immaculately groomed and his outfits are never precise and carefully thought out, which makes them work. That is exactly why I put him on my top list. He feels comfortable and confident in his clothes and I would assume about himself as well. He might be the perfect example of the man making the clothes and not the other way around.

Check shirts are causing a storm within men’s fashion and I couldn’t be happier if I am honest! I loved this trend last year, and think they have only gotten better since then. I love the roots from western films and the overall “worker” feel they have to them. Doesn’t get more manly than a check shirt and worker boots right?! [caption id="attachment_564" align="aligncenter" width="200" caption="check shirt & boots david"]check shirt & boots david[/caption] As previously mentioned I think these do give off a very rugged and manly aura when you throw them on, especially the thicker versions and lumberjack over shirts you can get your hands on these days. I particularly like oversizing them and throwing them on over vests, t-shirts, and even lightweight knitwear to give your outfits some unusual and creative layering options. One of my favourite looks right now is to button it up to the top but leave the bottom half open with a graphic tee on underneath. Something slightly unusual when it comes to layering, but also an idea that will set you apart from the crowd. [caption id="attachment_565" align="aligncenter" width="356" caption="check shirts casual wear"]check shirts casual wear[/caption] When picking a checked shirt don’t be afraid to go bold – I mean strong reds, blues and greens that really catch the eye. You can pull these colours off easily by just toning down the bottom half of your outfit and keeping it really simple. Think nice dark slim jeans and a simple pair of high tops. For those that want to go all out I would recommend a great thick pair of leather military boots in order to really nail down that strong “worker” vibe. A military jacket or a nice thick piece of chunky knitwear (plain colours) layered on top of the check shirt would also look great and really play on a couple of the biggest trends present this year.I think you should get involved early before the new season even kicks in.

For the past few years now guys have been flashing our chests with no regard for how well we can realistically pull it off. It may be the colder weather drawing in on us, or just urge for change, but guys everywhere are now saying no to man-cleavage and are embracing buttons. [caption id="attachment_589" align="alignleft" width="408" caption="Buttoned Up shirts"]Buttoned Up shirts[/caption] For the easiest example, take the basic checked shirt that has dominated our wardrobes for the past couple of years (and more than ever this season) and do up all the buttons – to the top now lads – and you have totally reinvented a shirt for this season. And not a penny spent. Do up all five buttons on one of their basic grandad or y-neck T-shirts to create a totally new look. Shirts Obviously you can button up any item right to the top. Works with formalwear, casual check shirts, denim, unusual collars and hooded varieties. You do not have to wear a tie or bow tie with a formal shirt buttoned to the top, on it’s own it is a smart enough look already and it can be matched with braces or geek specs for a great chic look. Shirts with detailing incorporated into the actual shirt are also great ways to add some flair whilst still keeping a simple buttoned up style. [caption id="attachment_590" align="aligncenter" width="217" caption="Buttoned Up Shirt"]Buttoned Up Shirt[/caption] T-shirts As the article mentioned, grandad t-shirts and y-neck t-shirts can be worn like regular tees with every button done up. It gives off a slightly smarter look and feel than a basic crew neck, whilst still remaining firmly casual in appearance. [caption id="attachment_591" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Buttoned Up T-Shirt"]Buttoned Up T-Shirt[/caption] Polo Shirts Work just as well as shirts buttoned up to the top for a smarter look. Again you can add braces, geek specs and even skinny ties with them to add some flair.
