ATTENTION GUYS: 8 Fashion Mistakes You Should Avoid Every Guy should read this!

Men struggle with fashion but with some simple guidelines we can all dress better and maybe attract a few more women in the process.

• Worrying too much about what your buddies will think. This is usually an excuse for dressing down rather than dressing up. Just worry about looking good and let your buddies catch up.
• Not spending where it counts. Find some really nice basic pieces, and spend most of your fashion money there. You can wear an awesome jacket with a N2k t-shirt and look great, but the reverse is almost never true.
• Wearing a dark dress shirt with a suit. This is close to cutting it fine, but dark-on-dark is advanced fashion and even some celebrities do it wrong.
• Wearing dirty clothes. You know that “dot” of dried chili sauce on the pocket that you can “barely see”? Everyone sees it, they’re just too polite to mention it...even a clean-looking shirt shouldn’t be worn in public if you had to run 10 blocks to the bus last time you wore it.
• Wearing clothes that are too large. At best, you’ll look 20 years out of date. At worst, your friends will ask when you’re due.
• Mistaking expensive clothes for good-looking clothes. The Ed Hardy t-shirt era ended when Jon Gosselin started showing up in tabloids wearing them. Instead, find something cool at BustedTees, or better yet, a nice-fitting solid colored t-shirt and save yourself money and your friends nausea.
• Trying to be too fashion-forward. You know what the new thing is? Skirts for men. That ought to keep you from straying far.
• Not dressing to the occasion. Again, find a look that works for you, but also remember to adapt to the situation. Jeans to a funeral are always wrong, even if they’re black jeans.

The list could go farther, including “Being a mortal enemy of the ironing board” and “Wearing anything with ‘TapouT’ or ‘Affliction’ written on it” but we’ll let it rest there for now....
