How It's Done

(click to enlarge)

This is layered so well, and not only balanced in color scheme but shape, texture and cut. The blue vest creates an eye-popper against the dark blue and brown, the dark blue plays off the lighter blue, and the jacket and scarf tie together the natural scheme, as well as the pants and the bit of belt showing. And the cuffs, oh God the cuffs, every shirt has a bit showing, layering continued down to the wrists is a must.
I love looks that not only men but women can be inspired by.

My cat. *glares at cat*
What’s one thing your parents taught you that turned out to be true?
Puerto Ricans are insane drivers.
How would you make the world a better place?
Improve the way women are portrayed in every aspect of media.

3. There's a frozen pizza waiting for me to eat it.
How do you stay alive?
Human contact. Screw food, sleep, people really keep me there and sane.

Men With Style

Men with real style are hard to find. Not necessarily a certain style, but the ability to fit into a certain look that they want to portray, a certain attitude and life style.

Clothes can draw people in, make them respect the wearer, and keep them away. You don't really want to hug a person with spikes sticking out of their leather jacket's shoulders. But there are some guidelines as to what a (heterosexual) man can wear.
  • Head-to-toe leather can be tricky (leather pants, jacket, and shoes) so balance it with soft cotton t-shirts. Never wear stiff leather. It looks awkward.
  • Dying your hair ten different colors is never attractive (on either gender.)
  • When wearing a suit jacket, make sure a bit of the cuff of the button-down underneath shows, and a touch of your watch, too. Balance a hard metal watch with hemp and rope bracelets for a laid-back touch.
  • Never cut your jeans with scissors. There is no way that will look good. If you must create holes, make a small hole by nicking the fabric with a knife. Knife cuts fray better for a rougher look.
  • Chest waxing is not gay. If you have a Chest Forest, it should be a serious consideration. If a Chest Forest is present, please, for the love of our eyes, abstain from tank tops.
  • Jeans should fit. Too short jeans look awkward, too big jeans will make you appear larger than you are. Jeans that are too low are cute only if your boxers are cute, too. But be prepared for some drunk chick to grab you. (And it won't be Gisele.)
  • Sunglasses at night looks stupid. It's dark, dipshit.
  • Classic leather gloves are always a yes. Fingerless gloves work better when they're wool. Don't buy yellow leather gloves unless you are a European dandy. Never wear just one glove unless you happen to lose one on the subway.
  • Wearing a Led Zeppelin t-shirt does not make you "rocker". It's not just a style, it's a lifestyle.
  • And most importantly: Originate, Never Imitate
