Seven common style mistakes men make & how to avoid them
Sin #1 - Bad fit. Most men don't realize it, but the way their clothes hang on their body is actually the most defining aspect of their appearance. Sin #2 - Not Dressing for the Occasion. An over- or under-dressed man makes everyone around him feel a little awkward. Know what you're getting into at various social and business events, and know how to dress for every level of formality. Sin #3 - Mismatching Patterns. Patterns that don't go well together jar the eye. Wearing nothing but solid colors is boring. Learn how to avoid both! Sin #4 - Mismatching Color. Forget "honey, does this tie go with..." Know what's just not going to work, avoid it, and get on with your life. Sin #5 - Dressing Your Body Inappropriately. Some "looks" work well on certain body types, but seem ridiculous on others. Don't be tempted into a bad style just because it happens to be trendy -- you've got to know your limits.
Sin #6 - Choosing Quantity over Quality. A wardrobe stuffed full of bad clothes is no substitute for even a lean closet of garments that make you look like a million bucks. Be strategic with your purchases, and know the quality of what you're buying. Sin #7 - Getting the Details Wrong. A well-chosen outfit can be marred -- or improved -- by details as small as the cufflinks or the pocket square. Know what details people are going to care about, and how to get them right.
