TIMELESS FASHION FOR MODERN MEN

May 11, 2021

It is very hard to say that there is a right and wrong when it comes to men’s style. It’s also difficult to make hard rules when trends seemingly move through a swampy, shifty and ever changing landscape. If you’re in pursuit of timeless style that endures over time, read on as we outline some fashion tips for modern men.

Fashionable Man Dressed In Suit
Dress Comfortable

When choosing what clobber to wear, on no occasion should a man ever suffer in pursuit of style. Attire should be a second skin and no matter the advice on offer, comfortable should always be first and foremost. Feeling comfortable instills self confidence and helps a man project his genuine image.


Brave Some Color

Many men shy away from color and follow the traditional norms of navy and grey, especially with business dress. This is fine if you wan’t to remain forever a sheep in the flock.  For the wolves on the other hand, color makes an impact and can be timeless too. Often less is more and a splash in one garment is all it takes to lift an entire outfit.


Mix & Match With High Low Dressing

A great way to spice up your style is to experiment with high low dressing. In this technique, everyday casual pieces are mixed and matched with more formal pieces. This is a very relaxed and cool approach that works well in a variety of situations. Try swapping a shirt for a plain tee or pants for jeans. Play around and see what works for you. 


Care For Your Clothes

A big proponent of perfecting your style can happen before you even get dressed. Having a wardrobe full of luxury clobber is useless if it’s worn crinkled and creased. Tending to your clothes can be tedious but having ironed shirts and polished shoes will show that you value and respect not only your clothes but also yourself.


Invest In Quality Shoes

Yes a pair of round toed, re-soleable, goodyear welted classics. This is a shoe that is truely timeless and an investment that can last you twenty years. Stick to clean designs, no pointy or square toes and you’ll be on a winner that never goes out of fashion. When purchasing, don’t be duped by inferior knock offs. Check on the integrity by asking about the manufacturing, the sole of the shoe should be stitched on and replaceable if need be.


Regular Grooming

They say that the devil resides in the details, which means that they must never be overlooked. Regular, detailed grooming of self is even more important than all of our other stylistic choices. A regular haircut from the barber will compliment your fine choice in attire and a cut throat shave will have you looking one hundred percent on point.
