What a man can't be seen wearing


Most of the time, advice about fashion and style tends to focus on what you should be .However, when it comes to style, there are actually so many acceptable looks to choose from that it can often be hard to find advice that works for you. Sometimes, it’s just easier if someone tells you what you should not under any circumstances, be wearing.
That’s what I am going to do today. If you are already a pretty fashionable guy, chances are none of the items on this list will come as a shock. However, if you are one of the many guys who need a little help when it comes in fashion, I imagine this might be of some service.
Ready to see what you should be eliminating from your closet?  
  • Crocs: These might be in the same category with "mayellow push".I'm sure most of you remember them.Crocs were “popular” for a while, but they were never okay. And especially not with socks.Unless you are elderly or mentally challenged,you have zero excuse for wearing crocs in this age.NO EXCUSE! 

  • Square toed shoes
Square toed shoes might have been cool half a decade ago, but now they make you look like a weirdo. Stop it.This isn’t 2002 anymore. It’s time to get a pair of shoes you didn’t own when Studio 263 was still on the air.
  • Turtleneck
Unless if you want to be like Justin Bieber and have girls all over you.

  •  Short suits.                                                                                                      
  This looks ridiculous.

  • Harem pants
They make you look like you are wearing a diaper.Some fashion items you should just not try.

  • Sandals and socks.Unless you are walking to the curb to pick up the newspaper, socks and sandals don't even make sense. The point of a sock is to keep you warm and the point of a sandal is to keep you cool.I do not know why people think it looks cool.

  • When it comes to men's fashion, floral can easily go from bad to worse.Lets face it, you're wearing a women's blouse and an old lady's blouse at that. Send this tropical look on a permanent holiday to Hawaai 
  • Flared pants
Yo might as well get yourself a fro and join the Jackson 5
 
  • Cropped pants
More like peddle pushers for men!
  •   Superhero clothes 
If you are nolonger a teenager,please stay away from Benten,Spiderman and Batman and all those childish comic book characters .

A look at the trending chinos


 Picking up the right pair of pants can be hard for any guy.With a few general style tips, most guys can pretty much walk in anywhere and find a nice pair of quality jeans that fit well and head home. However, with “real” pants, things get complicated, and in the end, it typically comes down to finding something “good enough” and moving on with their life.
However, if you want to look your best, that simply will not do. In this guide, I will look at the chino, a versatile pant choice that can keep you looking good on those Saturday nights when jeans and khakis just are not enough.
You need to know that chinos are not all the same.What I really mean is that there are different chinos for different occasions. People have a misconception about them. The idea that one type or style can cover all possible events needs to stop.
http://www.artofmanliness.com/category/dress-grooming/
Although they will always be considered informal by their very nature, there are differing levels of informality that chinos can come in.  I think it is important to understand what they are, especially when it comes to picking the right pair for your outfit each day.
This is great news for those of you out there who believe that brightly coloured chinos can only be worn in the most informal of contexts. With the right style and cut, you can wear just about any colour chino with something as formal as a blazer or suit jacket.
Now I am not saying that you need to own numerous pairs of the chino styles above. Most guys understand what their style is these days, so why not identify the chino that sits best with how you dress and then buy a couple in different colours? That way, you will not end up with a traditionally dressed lower half with an extremely casual top half.
Or buy all of them. Or none of them. 
This was just a quick note on the fact that, despite what some stores will have you believe, you cannot always wear one pair of chinos in every scenario. Take the information and do with it as you see fit.




Guys who wear soccer kits outside stadiums


One of the most interesting things about attending any big sporting event, or any large collection of people is people watching.We are a fascinating species, us humans.  And we make some interesting choices when we are out in public.For those reasons, it is a blast to sit back, and watch the sitcom called "Human beings".
               

                                            

Most sports fans are content to pull on their team's shirt and root them on. But what of those who take their excitement an extra step by dressing head to toe in team colors even when there’s no game on?

At any big football match one of the most interesting experience is the total number of people wearing jerseys. I bump into soccer fans who wear the full sport gear on their day to day basis.This is what inspired me to write this.Its wrong,it looks wrong and i bet it even feels wrong.! 

We understand that  you are dressing to support your favorite football player or your favorite soccer team as a whole.However there are some people who take it a little too far.You CANNOT wear a full kit!From the Man U cap,to the jersey ,to the shorts and even the football boots.Yes there are people who do that and I have come across such a person.Its like Robin Van Persie is taking a walk in Zimbabwe.You are just embarrassing yourself.I think you should just leave that in the football stadium,that is the only time where we can understand what you are wearing.



The problem is when people try to walk around the streets wearing such.This is just a fashion disaster.If you are that in love with your team please just wear one thing at a time.Monday you can wear the cap,Tuesday you can wear the jersey.Well the shorts and the boots are an exception.It will be weird bumping into someone in town who is wearing football boots.

This also goes to the soccer players or the wanna be soccer players.If you are coming from sports practice,do not walk around in your full kit,rather go for a tracksuit,as hot as it may be.This is better than making a full out of yourself.
If you are feeling all sporty,rather wear a baseball cap,soccer jersey,jeans and maybe a pair of Jordans.That way you will not get the weird looks when you walk around.
What do you think of soccer fans who wear full kits?

Overweight people and tight clothing

First of all I want to make it clear that this blog is not directed at any individual in particular nor is it meant to offend overweight people. I will mainly focus on ladies, as they are the ones that are always on the wrong side of fashion law . I understand that overweight people are people who have self esteem and are comfortable enough in their own skin that they just wear what they want. They do it because they are the owners of their bodies and they want to feel good in it.However i feel that sometimes they take it a little too far.Here is why...

Whenever i walk around the city,i always bump into unbearable and unpleasant sights of fat people in skimpy clothing.I always see ladies in particular who are clad in tight dresses and  look absurd with huge bellies almost spilling out of their tight fitting tops and dresses. If you have ever seen how they make sausages then you would know what I am talking about.

If you are overweight,you should know the areas of your body that draw too much attention and then make an effort to buy clothes that will cover those areas or at least not draw attention.You do not want a situation where a plus size woman tries to fit into a Paris Hilton dress.A lot of people think that by wearing clothes that are a size smaller or tight fitting,will make them slimmer.NO,this makes it worse,you are actually making yourself look fatter because all the humps and bumps on your body are visible.We do not want to see the loads of junk in your rear.No thank you..Now this is a problem because instead of enhancing your appearance,you are now getting more than what you were bargaining for-a perveted man's fantasy.!

I am not saying that women should not wear what they want; on the contrary, they must all wear what makes them feel comfortable. However, I don't understand those who wear certain clothes to cause attraction when they can guess that it only works against them. Why not enhance your strong aspects instead? Trust me when I say this, fat women in skimpy clothes appeal to perverted men, it is every man’s fantasy to have a fat girl but in reality your dressing really doesn’t appeal if it looks absurd.Showing off your behind doesn't necessarily equal automatic sexiness.

Why not go for clothes that get you less attention? We all want to have that dress that says “Hey look at me” but it shouldn’t come at the expense of your imageI have an overweight friend of mine who says that they were skimpy clothing because
those clothes used to fit, and they feel if they go out and buy bigger clothes, they will get bigger and out grow those as well. The figure wearing tight clothes will remind that they need to lose weight.In as much as medicine doesn’t taste good it is a remedy we all eventually will have to gorge down our throats.

Have you ever come across an overweight  man wearing tight jeans? Barely,because they know it will draw unnecessary attention and it is not comfortable as well.It is a sight one would rather go for the rest of their life without seeing.
 

So my advice to you ladies is that,please dress according to your body size and spare yourself the humility.Buy age-appropriate clothing . Here's a good rule of thumb: If someone 20 years younger or 20 years older than you would also be shopping in this department, then readjust. You don't want to look too young and seem like you're trying to hard, but you also don't want to buy clothes that age you.
My grandmother always says that fat people wear tight clothes because they just seek attention.Do you want to be put in this category of people?No i don't think so.There you have it ladies and gentlemen.
