Keeping in mind that as a guy, you might not want to be taken through an entire fashion course, I have lined up quick tips that will help you the next time you go shopping.
Fit is key: Oversized clothes are an absolute no-no. Clothes must be tailored to fit – not too big, but not too small either.
Choose from the great selection of new accessories and experiment with different looks using what you already have in your wardrobe.
However, do not get carried away by matching the pocket square to the tie to the lapel pin. Choose your accessories sparingly and try not to color co-ordinate too much.
Casual does not mean old jeans, a shirt that is hanging out and training shoes. For a casual look that is classy, wear a colored shirt tucked into chinos or fitted jeans and derby shoes, or sleek loafers that complement your belt.
Also, that leather jacket needs a break brother, unless it is recent and biker chic, please do not wear it to every weekend event.
If you are too busy with work and cannot follow up on trends, please do not go shopping alone. Get a younger guy friend or a female friend to go with you.
These young minds will give you word on the street when it comes to fashion. They will be your insight into what's going on in the fashion blogs, and the latest on clothing racks.
Despite your office shirts being an easy wear, please restrict them to the office, otherwise looking official will become like a bad habit, the kind that is very hard to break.
As you grow older, you go through a couple of changes. Upgrade your wardrobe to match your age. Do not dress like a 21 year old if you are 45.
