Wonder Why You Look Terrible In Suits? Here Are 6 Reasons

There are few things that looks better than appearing in a well-fitted suit and for good reasons too. Well-fitted suits tend to bring out your structure in such a way that you get the right kind of admiration from the right people.The suit has the ability to enhance your physical attributes while masking any shortcomings that throw off your proportions. On the other hand, there’s also nothing as worse than putting on a poorly fitted suit. 

Unfortunately, most men do not know how a suit should fit and as a result, wear poorly fitting suits that make them look worse than if they had gone suit-less. If you’re tired of wearing ill-fitting suits that have brought down your looks and confidence so now you’re looking to upgrade, then here are six things you should consider correcting about the way you wear your suits.

How Big Is The Gap Between Your Collar?

You should be able to fit two stacked fingers down the side of your fastened shirt collar. The shirt you wear beneath your suit should fit your body well and the collar should fit snugly against your neck, while the jacket collar should rest against your shirt collar with no big gaps between them. If there’s any gap around your collar, you will look like you’re wearing a suit that’s a size or two bigger than you.

You Wear Your Suit Pants Same Way You Wear Jeans

Your suit pants are very much different from jeans and should not be worn in a saggy manner. Never wear them low on your waist. Allow them to sit at the hipbone area or slightly above it. Your pants should fit perfectly without the need of a belt. If you want more free pants, ensure that the butt is neither too saggy nor too tight.

Your Suit Sleeves Are Too Long

The sleeves of your suit jacket should end just at the top of your wrist. The dress shirt you wear beneath your suit jacket should be not more than an inch longer and end at the base of your hand. By wearing your shirt and jacket this way, you ensure that the right amount of shirt cuff is exposed—a quarter to a half inch.

The Shoulders Are Too Wide

One good way to look terrible in suits is to have the shoulders of your suit slouch down your shoulders. The shoulder pads on your suit should hug and end with your shoulders. If your suit shoulders are too big, there’s a chance you will look like a man pulled out of a movie shot in the 1970s.

The Chest Of Your Jacket Is Either Too Big Or Too Small

The chest area of your jacket should not be too big or too small and neither should there be a strain or pull when your suit jacket is buttoned up. Furthermore, there should not be too much space when you button things up. A good way to know that the chest of your jacket is the right fit is to slip your flat hand under your suit lapel. If it enters comfortably, you have the right fit.

Your Hem Is A Tad Too Long

The hem at the bottom part of your trousers should end right Round your shoelaces for a slight break. By wearing pants with a longer hem will create a fuller break and allow your trousers to pool at the bottom part of your trousers. This will make you look shorter than you actually are and also facilitate a quick destruction of your suit pants.

Take note of these points the next time you want to wear a suit...and achieve the classic look. 

Do You Want To Get The Attention Of Any Girl? Here Are 8 Fashion Items You Should Consider Getting

There are a number of style items that every man needs to own if he wants to improve on his style game and get the right attention from people he comes across. These fashion items can make you look good at a moment’s notice without having to rack your brain about what to wear to impress.

If you’ve got these fashion pieces in your arsenal, then you’re pretty much good to go. If not, take out time and add them to your wardrobe as they are essentials that you will never regret having.

Dark Blazer

One fashion item you should always have in your wardrobe is a dark Blazer that is as dark as the tone of your hair. A dark neutral blazer is a fashion item that can allow you the freedom to dress up or down. If you’re wondering what dark colour to buy, you can choose to go with black, midnight, olive, charcoal or chestnut.

A Great Pair of Jeans

And by a great Pair of Jeans, we mean a pair of overdyed blue jeans. It can be a perfect match to pretty much everything in your wardrobe. They can either be dressed down with a t-shirt or worn with a sport coat and will most likely prove to be the most versatile pant in your wardrobe.

Cool Sneakers

The kind of shoes a man wears shows how good a taste he has. Wearing fashionable footwears shows you have good taste and a cool Sneakers is the way to go. You should however ensure that you keep your shoes clean as women are bound to notice.

Loafers

You can wear a slip-on loafer with a blazer or use it to dress up jeans. If you’re worried about the shape of the toe, a simple trick is to buy one that follows the shape of your jaw. If you’ve got an oval face, get one with an oval toe. If you’ve got an angular face, get a pointed toe. Also ensure that the colour of the loafers matches the darkest tone of your hair, to help create a head-to-toe balance.

A Nice Watch

Wristwatches don’t just help to tell the time but can also complete your look. Go for something simple because it is usually more versatile. You don’t have to go for the very expensive ones except you can afford it. Nonetheless, get a really good timepiece that you can enjoy for as long as possible.

A Good Belt

A good quality belt can help to complete your outfit. One good way of knowing the right buckle colour to buy is to follow the colour of the metal of your watch. When it comes to the belt colour, you can simply follow the darkest colour in your hair. That will usually blend along with everything simply because it matches you.

Well Tailored Suit

Every man must have a well tailored Suit in his wardrobe just as women should have a black dress. Whether you’re attending a wedding or interviewing for a new job, it is important you have an amazing suit. A good and versatile colour is navy blue because it looks great on most skin tones. You can also choose to break up the suit and instead wear only the blazers or slacks.

Brown Button Down Shirts

They tend to match with every pair of jeans that you may have in your wardrobe and can also match well with blue, which is most likely the colour that dominates your wardrobe.
