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. 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. 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.

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"][/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"][/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"][/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"][/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"][/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"][/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.
