subject: Men's Fashion Tips: Four Great Wardrobe Pieces You Need To Own [print this page] If you are a man who is trying to put together a great wardrobe, you may be feeling a bit lost. After all, men's fashion seems to be all about trends and changing styles. However, even though there have been some large changes in the men's fashion world there are always going to be a few pieces that are must haves for any well-dressed man.
The first is a good pair of jeans. Well cut jeans are a staple in men's fashion and have been for many years. You want to make sure that they are fairly dark colored because this makes it easier for them to dress up with a great blazer or dress down with an amazing vintage tee shirt. You want to make sure that it is the right cut. Most men can get by with a wider leg and a mid-rise because these can make you look long and lean.
A good trench is also a staple. Look for one in a neutral color that will not compete with other parts of your wardrobe. Men's fashion keeps coming back to the classic trench and this staple has never really gone out of style even when it is not in the limelight. This coat can work well for fall and spring, and may be just what you need to pull your look together when you are stepping out the door.
Men's fashion experts say one thing year after year and that is that a great suit can really make a man. Remember, if you have a great suit, you will find reasons to wear it. You want to make sure that the suit is well made from natural fibers. Polyester may be cheap but a suit is not where you want to cut corners with quality. Look for a suit in a neutral color such as black, deep blue or grey. A fine pinstripe can add visual interest but you want to be careful and pick a patterned fabric carefully since it is easy for it to look dated.
Remember that once you have the great suit, you can break it up into different pieces. You can wear the jacket to dress up a great pair of jeans (which you should already have if you have been paying attention) or you can pair the trousers with a sweater and shirt for a professional but slightly more casual look.
Shirts are a staple in men's fashion. Here is one place where you can let your creativity show in a way that is appropriate and affordable. The cut of a man's shirt can change as collar and cuff styles change. You want to make sure that your shirts fit well in the shoulder and body and are body conscious without being overly tight. Feel free to experiment with color, pattern and style since these are inexpensive enough in many cases that you can switch them out from season to season.
Remember that fit is critical with men's fashion. Don't think that you can get away with sloppy dressing or clothes that don't fit well. If you take time picking out the bones of your wardrobe you will find it much easier to dress well and put their best foot forward when you step out of your door.
