As long as he is not dressed like a complete idiot, I will stand by him. If he wears baggy Levi's with gym shoes and a lumberjack shirt than I feel I have every right to walk way behind him (at the airport) and pretend that I don't know him (when he is talking to me in line.)
For Valentine's Day, go though your man's closet and HELP him (Or hire me and I'll do the dirty deed for you) Here are some tips for guys:
1. Baggy legged jeans are a big NO NO. You look like a fat little man. Straight leg are the best and most flattering. I like Seven For All Mankind ("Sevens")
2. Men in black (not men in BROWN) not a fan of men in autumn colors - really unsophisticated and reminds me of some old sales guys I used to work in the western suburbs.
3. Gym shoes are for the gym. Thats a good rule for everyone. This includes the metro "sneakers" great if you are Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise but otherwise avoid. I like a casual loafer - same comfort - better look.
4. Pleated trousers.... try a flat front trouser - very streamlined and flattering.
5. Sports jerseys - seriously that is creepy unless you are an actual football player then bring it on and come to mama!
6. The pinstripe suit. Great for PIMPS and THE JOKER but they are cheesy and I really don't care if you had it custom made. And lets talk for a moment about the loser guys who have to tell me about their custom suits (and you won't let your wife get her nails done you big cheap ass). Custom suits are for men with special needs (like they are 7' tall or they have an extremely small penis)
LOVES
Football Sunday - Jeans & thermal henley tucked out, leather or suede jacket.
Saturday Night - Dark jeans, a great print shirt, black cashmere blazer
Work - Gray suit, blue shirt, fun tie with blues and purples, black alligator belt
Formal - Black suit, white shirt, sophisticated tie with grays and blacks - or a tux - yummy!
Last 2 tips:
Simplify. I love a guy in a crisp white shirt, black cashmere blazer, straight jeans and a sharp black loafer.
Shower. It takes 3 minutes- just do it.
PS
And Girls the shower thing applies to you too. No guy wants to come home at 7 from working all day (with hot young co-workers) to a woman who spent the whole day in sweats and still hasn't showered.
