Many women think that men do not dress the way they should. In fact, a lot of men dress horribly. That is probably why they have shows such as Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.
It is always nice when guys look really put together, but it shouldn't look like he took longer than you did to get ready. Women do not want their man looking better than they do. We like it when guys look good, but not too good. So put down your blow dryers!
Another fashion don't is when guys wear pants that look too small for them. You can see their socks while they are walking, and that is not a good look for anyone. Capri's are for the summer, not year round. Guys in America are not commonly seen wearing Capri's. European's can definitely pull them off.
Guys cannot pull off the tight shirt look. No one wants to see you wearing spandex. Spandex is not a good look for anyone, therefore neither is that tight shirt. Save something for our imaginations!
Whoever thought that wearing a jersey as a shirt was a good thing, was so wrong. Jerseys are worn to play a sport so that you can identify yourself along with your team. You should wear them to support your team.
If you wear sandals you should be barefoot. However, many people violate this simple fashion rule. No one should be wearing socks and sandals. It is not a good look. Seriously, socks with sandals conjure up images of rednecks and other fashion oblivious people.
