High School Mens Fashion Help!!!?
Hello I’m a 17 year old white male 5’10 135 pounds athletic body short brown hair, I am going on a shopping spree for the first time, can you ladies help me pick out some outfits? I like stores like Pacsun, Zumiez, but open to any stores. I want to have some outfits like kind of athletic skater and I also want to look intelligent maybe collared shirts. Any shopping tips like do’s and don’ts would be great, or young mens fashion websites, but mostly looking for outfits (shoes, shirt, pants, jackets, necklaces, watches, hats all that) would be great and put me in some direction coming from a guy with barely any fashion sense. Easy and fun points right here. Thanks girls!
you should the skater plaid shirts with some skinnish jeans and some vans shoes
As a girl in high school, I really love that your doing this.
A boy should be comfortable and almost as though they didn’t care too much, but they should also have their own style and look good.
Luckily, you can put so many things together easily, once you have the right pieces… so, these are what I like to see on a guy:
Collared shirts. Maybe a button-down every once in a while. Don’t be too afraid of color. Bright yellow is bad, orange is okay, red is good, pink is good, black, blue, green, white: all good colors. Be careful when you’re putting colors together. A yellow tank top DOES NOT go with a green polo. This is common knowledge.
Those regular tee-shirts that have sports teams on them and things like that can be a huge turn-off if you wear them a lot. That goes for those athletic shorts as well. They’re terrible.
Girls love to see guys wearing nice jeans. Nothing too ripped or too tight. You can have a little bit of both, but too much looks very bad. Anything extremely baggy (to the point where they are falling off) is a no. In fact, it’s a very big no.
You have to be cautious when choosing a jacket. Anything too neon or bright won’t go with what you own. Just because it looks cool doesn’t mean it always will. The boldest color that you can go with on a coat or jacket is red. No oranges, yellows, pinks, or greens. Keep it neutral (that’s black, blue, white, etc). Otherwise, the style is pretty much up to you. You have to show your personality in what you wear. It’s extremely important.
NO GOLD CHAINS. Please.
Hats, like baseball caps, are okay. If you’re a little more daring, go for the newsboy cap. The occasional fedora, in the winter, can be very cool. I think that many would prefer that you didn’t go for a cowboy hat or a beanie.
All my friends and I love when a guy has a nice gold watch. It doesn’t have to be gold, but being able to tell me what time it is is a turn-on.
That’s about all, but here are everyday tips. Don’t put pattern with pattern. Pattern goes with neutral. Follow your three C’s: Color, Character, and Confidence. Nothing that you’re not comfortable with. Remember, you’re almost eighteen. You’re (hopefully) going to college and then you’re going to have a job. Identify yourself now, but have fun.
Hope I helped.
Take a girlfriend or gay friend along with you…
