It can sometimes be difficult to find clothes for big and tall men.  There requirement for outsize menswear used to make it difficult to find retailers that could accommodate them.  It usually meant going to a specialty store to find properly fitting appropriately.  However, as demands have progressed, more stores and brands have begun to offer clothing for bigger guys.  Here are a few tips and thoughts on shopping for big and tall men.

Know Your Size

This can be the trickiest part of finding and buying larger menswear.  Your measurements are how you will be able to find the best fitting clothes, but not all brands and retailers have sizes meaning the same thing.  Before you start searching for clothes, make sure that you measure your chest, neck, sleeves, and inseam to know exactly what sizes you are looking for.

Also, keep in mind that being big doesn’t always mean tall, and vice versa.  If you are looking for a suit, you should shop specifically for your body type.  Tall individuals should find “tall” shirts and “long” pants.

By going to the store prepared, it will make for a much more pleasant shopping trip.

Choose the Right Styles

The next thing to keep in mind is choosing the right styles for your body.  The key to being confident in your clothes is being comfortable.  Bigger gentlemen should avoid wearing tight fitting suits and other clothes.  Also, make sure that you stick to solids, and vertical stripes, while avoiding bright colors.

If you buy light and flowing fabrics, it may make you seem larger than you are.  The same is true for bulky fabrics.  Keep to lightweight wool suits and cotton dress shirts.  If you are thinking about wearing khaki, consider wearing jeans or denim instead.

For taller men, 3 button suits and jackets will be a better look and give you a fuller appearance.  Make sure that you also look for extra long ties, so that they reach your belt buckle.  Too many tall men wear ties that are too short!

 Make Sure It Fits

Finally, you want to make sure that whatever you buy fits perfectly.  Nothing off the rack, for any size man, usually does.  Spend the extra money and pay t have your suits and jackets tailored to fit your body.  This will make sure that the clothes work well for you.

Finding the Right Footwear For You

I will be honest with you – buying shoes is something that I perpetually struggle with because there are just so many different choices and ways to wear shoes with different outfits.   If I wasn’t careful in my shoe spending, I would end up having a different pair of shoes for everything, and that just wouldn’t work.  Here are some tips for finding the right footwear for you, and where you can find some great deals on shoes.

Buy Versatile Shoes

The first advice I have when it comes to buying shoes, is buy shoes that you can wear with multiple outfits.  I think that most men should have a pair of black dress shoes and a pair of brown dress shoes.  Make sure that you don’t get super-fancy shoes, as you may find yourself overdressed.  In most occasions, it is good to be a bit understated, especially with footwear.  By having both a pair of black shoes and brown shoes, you are pretty much set for each occasion.

Also, don’t forget comfort.  It is essential that you are comfortable in the shoes you are wearing, or else your feet may hate you for it.

 You Need Casual and Athletic Shoes Too!

Every guy needs to have a pair of casual shoes as well.  These should be canvass or suede, and should look good wearing jeans and a tee shirt.  You should also consider getting a pair of flip flops.  Even though summer is almost over, these are versatile footwear in many parts of the country.

Also, make sure that you have a good pair of running shoes for working out or going to the gym in.  These shoes should be very comfortable and supporting, and should be okay to get a little dirty in.  Having a good pair of athletic shoes avoids your casual shoes from getting messed up!

 Where To Get Great Deals on Shoes

 There are a lot of great online shoe stores where you can find great deals on shoes.  If you’re looking for casual shoes or even more versatile shoes, look for a shoe store like Scotts to find great deals on shoes.   Scotts has a wide variety of different types of shoes that will meet just about any need or desire you have.  When looking to find the right footwear for your feet, consider shopping online to find the best prices and selection.

Yeah, today, I suppose I’m pleased to tell y’all about these awesome bags that I found recently which are definitely hip too.  As soon as girls discovered how awesome the designs and how hip these bags are, I am sure that they will be hooked. I am talking about these Melie Bianco hand bags. One of the samples was this bag in the top photo. What do you think about it? Dope or not? I know you’ll definitely like it as much my sister’s do.

Another good thing about the brand is they really have reasonable prices on each of their bags. And as I’ve checked it, they are ranging about 50-300 bucks on each designer’s bag they have. Still good though, right? You may check the other info about the brand on their main site. Just search it over Google for more details. Also, I’ve heard that even celebs these days are having their Melie Bianco hand bag because the brand name is getting more and more popular. Personally, I really suggest a girl to have this brand of bag than to the usual bags out in the market these days.

Alright, that’s it for now and I hope you may keep on visiting the blog for more fashion updates. Also, I will post on the other fashion brand that you must have to check about.
