Do not make these mistakes again…

In spring all men and women of fashion are doing their best to wear good clothes and in general – to look their best! It’s great if you possess an ideal sense of taste and it is not a problem for you to buy and wear appropriate clothes. If not – you may suffer from so “popular” fashion mistakes. I wish you didn’t allow yourself to be caught, thus, this information is for you.

Avoid these fashion mistakes, if you don’t want to be referred to as the “fashion victim”:

1. Pants That Don't Fit: Great fitting pants are the right length - not too short or too long. They should be long enough to cover your socks and short enough not to drag on the ground or bundle at the front. Great fitting pants do not droop in the back and are not tight.

2. Socks That Don't Match: remember about color coordination with socks too! Besides, keep in mind, that socks that are too short or socks that are too thin are instant image busters.

3. Improper Footwear: Wear shoes that are in good condition, clean, shined and in good repair. Nothing ruins an outfit like rundown shoes or shoes that are the wrong style for the outfit.

4. Wearing Short Sleeve Shirts as Dress Shirts: Short sleeve shirts are not the right shirts to wear with a tie, nor do they project a professional image. Remember it if you want to impress somebody!

5. The Wrong Tie: Avoid ties that are too short, too long or do not match your shirt or suit. Also, be very selective where and when you wear novelty ties.

6. Unflattering Hairstyles: Hairstyles that are from another decade or wearing your hair parted in the middle are not flattering.

7. Good Grooming: Do not neglect personal grooming habits such as a daily shower or shaving. Be aware of the image you are projecting when you decide to shave or not to shave. Remember that even designer beard is not for everyone!

8. Wrinkled Clothing: Always hang clothes properly, do not over dry-clean you suits and steam your jacket and pants instead of pressing.

9. Inappropriate Briefcase or Luggage: Do not carry a canvas bag or backpack when wearing a suit. When travelling make sure your luggage reflects a professional image.

10. The Wrong Accessories: be very particular while choosing accessories. Mind that even your eyeglasses should correspond to your overall image!
