As A Man, Finding A Personal Style Should Be Simple
What will I wear? It seems like a simple question and, to an extent, it is. However, the clothes we choose and wear out into the world are part of the masks and costumes that represent who we are on the inside, or at least, they should be.
In the world of fashion women are given carte blanche to experiment and embrace trends as they're presented at the fall and spring fashion shows. Men are encouraged to be prudent in embracing styles, at least adult men are.
Teenage boys in their jean skinny styles and long greased hair or slouching extra-large jeans held up with narrow belts well below the butts of hip hoppers are declarations of what these boys are into. As adults, men should find a personal style to suit them that doesn't adhere to any particular trends.
Using the past to influence the present is the best way for men to carve out their sartorial identity in a fashionable way without the calculation inherent in many outfits. There are timeless pieces to include in any mans closet from crisp dress shirts and slacks to jeans. Across time periods, the underlying component to making clothes timeless is their fit. Tailoring and knowing the proportions of your own body is the most important part of finding the right clothing.
Using classic pieces as dogma in outfit construction isn't the way to go about solidifying a sense of style. Looking at men's style icons for inspiration can act as a template to discovering your own self. The leather brown boots of actor Steve McQueen, the black turtlenecks of musician Bob Dylan, even the iconic eyeglass frames of film maker Woody Allen identify them.
Clothing can advertise who you are and if you find a style that works for you, there is no imperative need to change and conform to the times. Being a slave to trends is too much work and a man's attitude coupled with nonchalance when it comes to dressing is extremely attractive.
Keeping the lines of your clothing simple and tailored will act like a blank canvas that needs barely any accessory aside from the banal like a men's sport watch, scarf, or ring. Men should settle into their adulthood without dealing with the cacophony of fashion trends dictating how they represent themselves to the world.
