Steps

1

Fitted T-shirts are a casual style women love.

Download Article

1. 
   Rock this classic look with a clean pair of jeans for an easy style. A well-fitting T-shirt shows her your physique without looking too skintight. While graphic tees might make you look a little more immature, a plain solid-colored shirt makes you look more put together and ready to date. Experiment with a few different colors to see what makes you look and feel the best.

   • For a really simple style, put on a white T-shirt with some khaki pants.
   • If it’s a little chillier outside, layer up with a simple jean or leather jacket, cardigan, or flannel shirt.

Tank tops show off your muscles.

Download Article

1. 
   Look more athletic by pairing your top with other activewear. If it’s nice and warm outside, find a tank top that hugs your body tight so the ladies can see your muscles underneath. Stick with solid colors or simple patterns rather than graphic styles to seem a bit more mature. Try putting on a pair of joggers, athletic shorts, or jeans with your favorite pair of sneakers to really complete a sporty look.

   • If you want to have a beachier vibe, wear your favorite tank top with a nice pair of shorts and some sandals.

3

Henleys make women notice your biceps.

Download Article

1. 
   Henleys work well for casual or formal looks. Henleys are made from a comfortable blend of woven fabrics, and they usually have a rounded button-up collar. A lot of guys don’t wear henleys, so rocking one can make you stand out among the crowd. You can get them in a ton of different colors with either short or long sleeves.

   • Pair a henley on with a pair of khakis or jeans and some dress shoes for an outfit that works no matter where you’re going.
   • If you want to rock a layered look, try putting on a patterned blazer or a denim jacket over your henley.
   • A red henley with jeans, a belt, and some nice brown loafers make a really striking outfit.
   • During warmer months, try a short-sleeved henley with shorts or just roll up the sleeves on long-sleeved shirts.

Women love the cozy, rugged look of flannels.

Download Article

1. 
   Soft flannels are the perfect cold-weather staple for your wardrobe. They usually come in plaid or checkered patterns, but you can get solid colors too if you want a simpler style. For a really classic look, put on a red-checkered flannel over a plain white tee with your favorite pair of jeans or khakis. Complete your look with a pair of your favorite boots or tennis shoes.

   • If you want a layered look, try putting a plain black cardigan or sweater over your flannel. Leave your flannel untucked so the bottom of the shirt sticks out.
   • Try rolling up your sleeves to show off your forearms and stay cool when it gets a bit warmer.
   • If it’s a bit chilly, throw on a beanie or comfortable hat for a really cozy vibe.

Button-up shirts tell women that you care about your looks.

Download Article

1. 
   Dressier collared shirts pair well with dress pants or jeans. Choose some shirts that fit you well without looking baggy or bunched up. You can rock a short-sleeved button-up without an undershirt with some shorts and slip-on shoes in the warmer months. When it’s a bit colder or if you need a more formal look, opt for a simple long-sleeved button-up with a plain undershirt.

   • Tuck your shirt in and wear a nice belt for a really put-together style.
   • Dress up your button-up with a skinny tie or a nice blazer to really complete your look.

Sweaters show women you can dress up and look comfortable.

Download Article

1. 
   Sweaters work great for formal and relaxed looks. Pick a crew-neck style for a really cozy tight fit, or rock a V-neck sweater if you want to accentuate your jawline. Stick with sweaters that fit your body well rather than oversized baggy styles that hide your muscles. If you want a sweater that goes with most outfits, try wearing colors like navy blue, grey, olive green, or black. You can wear whatever shirt you want underneath so you stay warm.

   • Layer a red V-neck sweater on top of a button-up shirt with a pair of khakis and boots for a really professional look.

7

Leather jackets have an edgy style women want to chase.

Download Article

1. 
   A simple black leather jacket works well layered over any outfit. A leather jacket is a must-have if you’re trying to go for the “bad boy” look. Try out a few different shades of black and brown if you want to vary how you look.

   • For a really classic look, rock a black leather jacket, plain white t-shirt, and some skinny jeans with boots. Complete your look with some sunglasses to make yourself a little more mysterious.
   • For another fun style, put a dark brown leather jacket over a button-up shirt with some khakis.

Blazers tell the ladies that you know how to style layers.

Download Article

1. 
   Pair a blazer with jeans for casual outings or dress slacks for formal events. Blazers are a great start to show a woman that you can dress up a regular outfit. If you want to look a little professional but a suit is a little overboard, just put on a blazer or sport coat instead. For a really clean appearance, stick to a dark solid-colored blazer so you can pair it with any shirt or pants. If you want to be a little bolder, opt for a loud color or fun pattern and texture to make you stand out.

   • For example, a bright red blazer with a simple T-shirt and black pants can be really eye-catching and unique.
   • For a formal, relaxed vibe, wear a white button-up shirt underneath your blazer, but keep the top few buttons undone to show off a little bit of your chest.

Tailored suits show women you know how to clean up.

Download Article

1. 
   A tailored suit is perfect if you want to look suave and professional. Women think men in suits are really sexy and put-together, but save dressing up for the most formal occasions. When you get a suit, make sure it fits your body really well to show off your physique. For a really timeless style, opt for a charcoal or black suit with a simple white button-up and colored tie underneath.

   • Complete the look of your suit with a nice clean pair of dress shoes and a professional-looking watch.

Dark-wash jeans make women notice your behind.

Download Article

1. 
   Dark, tight jeans can work really well no matter what else you’re wearing. Bright blue jeans might be a little bold, so wear darker-colored pants for some more versatility. You can’t go wrong with a classic white T-shirt and jeans with a pair of sneakers, while a button-up or henley is perfect if you want to dress up your look a little bit more.

   • Make sure your pants fit well without getting too wrinkled or baggy. If the legs are a little too long, cuff them by your ankle to draw some attention to your shoes.
   • Jeans come in a variety of fits, like slim-fit, skinny, or boot-cut, so try on a few different pairs to see what you like best.

11

Khaki pants tell women you have stylish options besides jeans.

Download Article

1. 
   Go for khaki pants if you’re looking for something a little formal. Light tan khakis work really well for relaxed formal looks, but they’re versatile enough for really professional styles too. Get some khakis that fit well on your legs without feeling too tight or baggy. Try mixing and matching a few different shirts and styles to see what really works best with what you have in your closet.

   • Tuck a button-up shirt into a pair of khakis, and put on a dark brown belt and boots to complete a dressy outfit.
   • Rock your khakis with your favorite tee or henley and a pair of sneakers if you want something a little more relaxed.

Sneakers are casual footwear that catch a woman’s eye.

Download Article

1. 
   A clean pair of shoes can really complete any outfit. Even if you aren’t the most athletic, you can rock sneakers with pretty much any style. If you want a really versatile pair, choose plain white or black shoes so you can pair them with jeans, shorts, or any other clothes in your closet.

   • If you want to be really bold, try finding a pair of sneakers that match the color of your shirt to add another pop of color to your wardrobe.

13

Boots tell women that you have a good sense of style.

Download Article

1. 
   Lace-up boots work well for casual or formal outfits. Women often judge a guy’s fashion sense based on their footwear, so don’t be afraid to splurge on a nice pair. Boots look their best when you style them with a clean pair of pants. For a really casual style, wear your boots with a pair of jeans and keep the laces a little looser. If you want to look a little more professional, tie up your boots and cuff the legs of your pants above your ankle to really show them off.

   • Try out a few different boot colors to see what you like best. Darker brown boots look really great with khakis, while black boots are super stylish with a pair of dark-wash jeans.

Ties show women you know how to accessorize.

Download Article

1. 
   Complete a dressy look with a plain, textured tie. Ties work well with any button-up shirt with a collar. Even though there are a lot of fun patterns and quirky styles you could try, nothing beats a simple colored tie to complete your look. Try wearing a red tie if you want a bold and confident look, or go for a more muted color if you don’t want to stand out as much.

   • A must-have accessory is a nice metal tie bar to keep your tie from moving around or getting messed up.

15

Women find watches professional and stylish.

Download Article

1. 
   Adding a timepiece to your outfit makes it look more complete. A nice metal watch can make you look more mature and put together, and women love that in a guy. You can wear your watch with any type of outfit, but it really helps accentuate the looks of a suit, button-up shirt and dress pants, or sweater.

   • Women find dressier watches more attractive than sports or casual watches.

The color red catches her eye and makes you look confident.

1. 
   Any red piece of clothing will make your outfit stand out. When women see you in the color red, they think you look powerful. Make the red the star of your outfit with a simple red tee with some jeans, a burgundy collared shirt and dress pants, or a muted red sweater with khakis. Don’t be afraid to try some bright and bold shades so you really stand out.

   • If you want to add a pop of color to a formal outfit, try putting on a bright red tie with a suit or collared shirt.
   • For a really bold look, try putting on some bright red sneakers with your favorite t-shirt and jeans.

   When a man dresses well, it conveys an impression of authority, discipline, trustworthiness, and refinement. It telegraphs his desire to be taken seriously and his understanding of the complex rules that govern the world in which he moves. Knowledge of the codes of dress is one of the few remaining paths to demonstrating self-mastery in a society that has lost the appreciation for restraint, dignity, and adulthood itself. If clothes make the man, they do so only when the man makes the clothes.
