Fashion Blunders That Men Make

Let’s face it, when it comes to fashion men are still way behind to women. A lot of men still don’t care about how they dress up and prefer to put on a simple pair of jeans and T-shirt. Furthermore, men make fashion mistakes all the time. Some may be tolerable but others are plain outrageous. Shiny shirts and suits are better off hidden in the closet. Instead try a form fitting black shirt which can be worn with pants or jeans when you want to go clubbing. Another fashion faux pas is wearing socks with sandals. It just doesn’t look cool.

Many guys are sloppy dressers. Clothes that’re too loose fitting make you look like a street gangster. Shop for clothes that fit you perfectly and are flattering to the type of body you have. Another advice is to not wear uncomplimentary colors. The colors you wear should flatter your natural features such as your skin tone, eye color, and body shape. Remember to always keep your style simple and understated.

What better way to put together a fashionable wardrobe than to shop at Cockney Rebel Fashions. This family run business has been around for decades providing men with luxury designer brands of apparel, footwear, and accessories. Among the brands available are Adidas Originals, Barbour, Diesel Jeans, Fred Perry, Lacoste, Lyle & Scott Sportswear, Nicholas Deakins, Timberland, and Ted Baker Mens.

Their G Star T-shirts online are a must-have for men who want to keep it very casual but stylish. An example would be the G Star Palma Crew Neck Stripe T-Shirt which will go well with both denim and chinos. It has a grandad collar with 3 button fastening and a tonal pocket detail. The G Star Evens V Neck Logo T-Shirt on the other hand, is great during summer and has a photographic front print and chest pocket with printed G Star branding above it.

Maybe it’s really depend on what type or color of your sock is. And how comfortable your are wearing it. But on my own, I prefer to have it with shorts because I was in to shorts more than pants or jeans when it comes on my styling and fashion statements.

Also, girls can rock on this styling too as their fond of wearing it like on the photo on the top. Nope! kidding aside. Girls are can be good in this too, because I’ve also seen some girls even today( fall is approaching ) are wearing this socks with their shorts on. Sorry!

So – yeah! Sport finds can be also use at some casual either in formal styling. All you have to do is to try to mix and match things for you to have a great styling that might most people looking forward to.

The beautiful thing about women is that they come in all shapes and sizes, each uniquely lovely in her own way. Whether she is tall, short, slender, curvy, athletic, or anywhere in between, a woman’s physique can be her most beguiling asset. Knowing how to dress in a way that will flatter her own body type can only increase her allure.

When it comes to choosing swimwear, women often are unsure of which style best suits their figure. There are so many different cuts and styles available, and that just complicates things even more! Understanding the best type of swimwear to flatter her figure will help any woman achieve that confident look she’s going for.

Ladies who have a minimal bust line should try wearing a top that has embellishments like fringe, ruffles, or metallic accents. This extra detail will help add some volume to the bust line. Horizontal lines and extra thick lining of the top will add some fullness as well. Ladies with an ample bust should opt for tops that provide lift and support. Thick-strapped halters and under wire tops will lift the bust and help elongate her frame.

Women who have a curvy figure look great in bathing suits that that help cinch in the waist. Styles that feature a wide belt, color blocking, or an empire waist all help accentuate curves without adding bulk. Women who are pear-shaped can draw the attention upwards with a plunging neckline, or opt for a boy-short style bottom for extra coverage.

Another great way to play up swimwear style is to add fun accessories. A bright sun hat, sexy shades, fun beach tote, and a sarong will complete the pool-side look brilliantly! In fact, swimsuit sarongs from fairwindssarongs.com can bring the perfect element of sexy summer style to help accentuate any woman’s best assets, and even help camouflage certain areas that she feels need more coverage.

The most important detail of pulling off a hot summer look is to have confidence. No matter how she dresses, if a woman feels confident in what she has on, she can wear anything! Feeling comfortable and looking good go hand in hand, so it’s always a must to feel good in whatever she decides to wear.

Trends: Short Bridesmaid Dresses

A wedding is an important event for everyone involved. For the bride and groom, it marks the day where two people pair together for the rest of their lives. Their families are joined together as well through the act of marriage. The parents and grandparents of the bride and groom traditionally take a leading role when it comes to planning the wedding. Therefore, they want to see everything come together nice on the big day.

The groom has only a couple of big decisions to make before his wedding day. His first decision is choosing a tuxedo to wear at the altar. His second decision is to choose who his best man will be as well as his groomsmen. To guys, this is an informal process during which a few close friends are selected to join him to celebrate his big accomplishment.

Women have it a lot harder. There can be a lot of fighting and drama surrounding who the bridesmaids will be. Those who are selected want to look their best. If the bridesmaids are all wearing short bridesmaid dresses, they have to be designed in a classy manner that won’t outshine the bride on a day that is supposed to be all about her.

1.) Farah Vintage The Winchester Crew Knit – £85.00

2.) Edwin ED-39 Blue Watch Jeans – £110.00

3.) Barbour Thorn Shirt – £65.00

4.) Grenson Stanley Full Brogue – £200.00

5.) Laboratory Perfumes – £50.00

Browsing through the store, I saw some really great items such as the Farah Vintage Winchester Crew Knit, Edwin ED-39 Blue Watch Jeans, Barbour Thorn Shirt and a pair of Grenson Stanley Full Brogue all shown above. I’ve heard good things about Laboratory Perfumes too and I noticed Northern Threads stock it when I was perusing their site.

The Farah Vintage Winchester Crew Knit is a stylish crew neck knit which has a thick ribbing on the cuffs, hem, and neck and an insulating knitted material to provide warmth. They work well with those Edwin ED-39 jeans – I’m a big fan of Edwin and particularly the ed-39 style; versatile, stylish and they can literally be worn with anything, anywhere.This straight legged pair is 100% cotton, has a button fly, and has five pockets. Every man should also have the Barbour Thorn Shirt either in blue or white, this stylish shirt has a button down collar, button cuffs, and button chest pocket. You will definitely look stylish if you are wearing this along with jeans and impeccable shoes. Which brings me to another pick of mine; Grenson Stanley Full Brogue shoes, one of Grenson’s eldest shoes. An elegant hand crafted brogue with wing tip, and double leather sole. Any guy will look classy and handsome when wearing these shoes.

As I mentioned I also browsed through the Laboratory Perfumes section and saw the Laboratory Samphire 100 ml. Eau De Toilette. “This brings together the scent of fresh jutiner berries, citrus oils and lavender for a modern scent” well suited for the modern man.

I’d certainly recommend you take a look for yourself.
