I don't know why, but I have gotten many compliments on my style. Nearly every time I interact with a group of people. Really, my style simple and cheap.


Shirts:
Unless you are 6' and a weight lifter, extra small or small t-shirts are what you need. Urban Outfitters and Uniqlo are my go-to. American Apparel is good as well, if slightly expensive. Why so tight? To show off your body of course.

If you need to get in better shape, cut your calories to 1800 per day, do push ups, and you're good. Of course, a more serious regimen is better.

I actually bought most of my shirts at a TJ Max for $5-10. I get compliments on them the most. One person even scoffed at my "designer shirts". Go figure.

My shirts are all different colors with abstract designs or drawings on them. Most people dress darkly. Don't be afraid to stand out a little.


Pants:
All my pants are from Uniqlo and they are tapered and slim fit. If you have space between your thigh and the pant material, it's too loose. The reason? Girls like to see guys legs too.


Shoes:
In nicer clubs, I wear dress shoes. In other spots, I wear chucks.


Accessories:
You don't need them. They can be conversation topics, but you really ought to have other stuff to go on. Wear them if they are part of your identity. I'm going to buy a dress vest from Uniqlo when I get back as well.

I tell you why. Its because your clothes fit you and more than likely express your personality as well.

Are you saying I am simple and cheap? :-P


I agree that the main factor is that my clothes fit - or are on the tight side.
Color might be the other factor.

I would think the only thing my clothes express about my personality is that I like colors. The designs on the shirts (one has an abstract beetle, another some sword thingie with leaves, another illegible writing, etc.) have nothing to do with who I am. My pants are pretty non-descript and you can find someone in most niches/professions/walks of life who wears chucks.

In fact, many people wear clothes that express their likes - music, art, designers, etc. My clothes do not do any of that.

lol. I am more simple than you are. Plain color t-shirts and solid color skater shorts.

Color is also a huge factor as well. I get more attention when I wear deep colors (especially if its a deep blue) than I do with lighter colors.

Your not getting what I am saying. What colors that are on the shirt is what showing off your personality, not the content. I am not talking about the content of what is on the shirt. I am talking about the COLORS on the shirt. When you see a goth person what do you think their personality will be like generally speaking? Or a preppy person?

Pants do have an effect on the outfit tho no matter how nondescript they are. As they can effect the vibe of your outfit.

Not to lecture you, but to give you some more info. There has been loads of studies done with colors and how they correlate to personalities and what have you. Such info is used in mostly in marketing to appeal to different or select personality types. I see if I can't find a study or two for you.

I've heard of these studies. Artists for centuries have used specific colors to create specific emotional effects as well.


The point is guys, dress colorful. Dress to fit - much tighter than most guys are used to. It was uncomfortable for me at the beginning, but now I can't stand looser clothes.

If you want to read more into style, you can do that slowly over time. Until then, these two principles alone will give you working criteria for picking clothes that "peacock" without looking strange. You'll just be better dressed than the rest. :-)

Just wondering, why aren't you too into accessories?

I feel like they usually make your outfit fuller.

This is also why people paint rooms certain colors. There is a reason why people tend to paint walls of their house white when they go to sell it.
:wink:

Its much better to dress to your body than to a certain style.

For me I have no interest in them really. I like my very simple look.

It's up to you really. More important than finding the perfect bracelets, necklaces, or whatever, just go out and practice pick up. For a date, bring a girl shopping for that stuff with you so you don't waste your time.

Wouldn't that be counter productive? Taking a girl with you to go shopping for you? She will drag you to every store for crying out loud. :P
