Men-22 Common Fashion Mistakes to Avoid

2011-10-21T08:23:00.000-07:00

1. Wearing clothes that don’t fit

Overly baggy clothes will make you look you’re wearing sloppy hand-me-downs. If your body type makes it hard to find well-fitting clothes off the rack, make your tailor your best friend. There's no crime in reshaping or giving your clothes fitting after they are bought. Sometimes when l see a nice shirt that is oversize l do buy it, then take it to my tailor to reshape it to my size.

2. Short sleeve shirt with a tie – Unless you work for a fast-food joint – where sleeves get dirty making sandwiches – avoid wearing a short sleeve shirt with a tie. They are generally perceived as lower class apparel. If you want to stay looking professional and

Personal Style: Jose Mourinho Talks On Football, Style and Fashion

2011-10-01T09:38:00.000-07:00

Before José Mourinho brought style and swagger to the world of football management, the leading men of the Premier League were limited to two looks: the knackered track suit from the kit manager's bag or the shapeless Ron Atkinson-style camel coat. In his tailored suit and Armani overcoat, Mourinho changed all that. Arguably the best football manager of modern times - although Sir Alex Ferguson might disagree - Mourinho has gone from being Bobby Robson's translator to winning two Champions League titles with different clubs and league titles in three countries. But the day we met him at Real Madrid's training ground on transfer deadline day the topic of conversation wasn't football but his latest match - as the new global face of Braun.

When I was at Chelsea I met Giorgio Armani in Milan. I've always liked Armani, and I've always had a good relationship with the brand. I also like to wear Ermenegildo Zegna and Hugo Boss.

Wearing a suit as opposed to a tracksuit doesn't make you a better manager.

This season I'm going a different direction. I'm not going to wear a suit to the matches - I'm going very casual. When I started wearing a suit and a tie to games, not many others did, but certainly ten years later everybody does. So now I'm wearing casual trousers. I think that other people will follow.

Young players today are not very stylish. I have so many fights and laughs with the Madrid squad because these days, a manager has to adapt to the age group they are working with and it's a quality a manager should have. The managers are getting older, and the players are always young boys. So you can imagine Alex Ferguson, at 70, will think the kids are badly dressed. But they like to dress for the times.

I'd like to see the players dressed properly. That doesn't need to mean a suit and tie - it means not in shorts and a T-shirt on the day of the match, or leaving the stadium, or going into a press conference. I just use the word "properly" and I leave the space for them to understand what that is - it's their choice and their responsibility. The football stadium means work - it's not just a pitch.

Find out Clothes that Women Love to See on Men

Of course this matter of what clothes women love to see on men is very subjective. It all depends on the type of woman, her lifestyle and the standards she lives by. But on the whole, there are certain common criteria that most women follow in their preference for clothes that they like to see on men.

• Well-fitting clothes
Comfort is one thing, but if it’s as comfortable pyjamas then they surely look like pyjamas. Well-fitting clothes is one that shows off your physique in a flattering way. Too tight shirts will make a thin man thinner or show off those unsightly bulges on a bulkier man. Too loose shirts will not necessarily hide the flaws either but at the same time make you look sloppy.
• A suit
A man dressed in a suit has a certain appeal to women, especially when the suit fits perfectly and properly color coordinated.
• Great looking denim jeans
Women find men wearing great looking jeans sexy and great looking jeans mean jeans that fit perfectly. It is worth every penny you’ll spend on quality jeans, even designer jeans that look on you.
• Fine pair of shoes
Choose classic quality shoes and keep it spiffy clean. (It could be sneekers, ankle shoes or flat soles) Truly eye-catching!
• Classy jacket
Classy jacket such as a sports jacket, leather jacket, a blazer that fit perfectly and paired with the right kind of pants is a real turn-on.
• An attractive dress shirt (long/short sleeve) or sports shirt
A very spiffy look in a man is dress shirt with sleeves folded up the forearm or a sports shirt tucked – in a belted great looking pair of jeans.
• A smile
What could be more attractive on a man than a nice genuine smile.

Two days ago l ran into an old rich friend, wearing a very expensive shirt and a blue straight cut denim over a an expensive boot. One does not need to be told those dress are designers probably they are labelled top names like Vassace, Gucci, T.M Lewins etc, but they were not looking good on him at all.My own perception is, I'd rather wear a dress that fits me to the core than wearing something that would seemed like it was borrowed. I consider fitness first before the cost and then the label. Which one do you care about?
