step 1

jokes apart I've been lurking on r/MFA for some months and this video sums up pretty well all the basic tips. Thanks for sharing!

Something really important the video sort of touched on with the shoes - build a wardrobe, not a series of outfits. You want to buy versatile clothes, especially at first, that can be interchanged within various outfits.

A video by buzz feed that doesn't suck? Those exist?

Ziker0 · 2014-07-22T07:44:04+00:00

I've realised that fitting garbage is always way better than unfitting best dress in the world.

Yup on all fronts. I definitely like the last bits of advice about trying new things. But always be wary of trends. Trends are for suckers.

Never underestimate the power of a plain white t-shirt, it can be worn in both casual and smart scenarios

KallistiEngel · 2014-07-21T23:44:03+00:00

Regarding jean size, that might be harder for some guys. I've always had a small waist, the best I can really hope for is jeans that aren't too baggy. Ideally I should be wearing jeans with a 28 or 29 waist, but the smallest you can find in most stores is 30 (and that can be a somewhat limited selection). If I do manage to find a 28 or 29 waist, they're rarely long enough in the legs.

Belts are a godsend.

YeaaBuddy · 2014-07-22T03:18:34+00:00

Only thing I disagree with is the "master-sleeve roll" - too high. It should be below the elbow. All else pretty damn accurate, especially the foot selection for rookies.

Just a reminder: This video isn't aimed at a specific genre. Rather, it's aimed at people who simply DON'T have direction in style (Hence the title).

To everyone saying you'll look basic doing this, come to Fresno State University. You would see why these fashion tips would make you stand out from 80% of the crowd, along with getting more-than-usual compliments.

I like that ending quote, fashion is who you are.

ProfoundDarkness · 2014-07-22T05:25:02+00:00

I do me every night and i'm still lonely

Cali_Val · 2014-07-22T00:37:11+00:00

Dress like who you want to be. I'd probably never really be in dress shirts unless im at an interview. It's just not my style. Flannels, jean/leather jackets, ripped up black jeans, chuck taylors low cut black n whites. white shirt with custom spray paint. watch. LA hat.

things like that are more me. And it gets me the attention, especially of girls that IM looking for. so rocker chicks. and even then I still get attention from other girls that are looking for something new and exciting.

BleLLL · 2014-07-22T15:38:21+00:00

Fuck that, I love my short shorts.

lofiharvest · 2014-07-22T20:28:48+00:00

I think this is a great video especially for guys just starting to look into refining themselves. I know some people are anti-fashion but I honestly get complimented regularly on my fashion (from both men and women). Its not the end all solution to game but every little bit sure does help. Example this cute girl I was dating once admitted how one of the first thing she noticed about me was how my socks worked together with my outfit. To her she said it was a good indicator that I had my life together and paid attention to the small things. Good luck fellas!

enzo32ferrari · 2014-07-24T19:34:19+00:00

it's summer motherfuckers, you don't wear socks in the summer. go sockless

Hide_yo_girl · 2014-07-25T08:45:32+00:00

Ccgh

greatlakestiger24 · 2014-07-26T06:43:07+00:00

Don't dress this way if you want to get laid in the South.

RichieFinn · 2014-07-22T10:03:18+00:00

Im sorry but the guys at SimplePickup have unintentionally disproved every shitty point made in this video.

Fashion is personal taste. You can fucking own certain items of clothing that other people may look shit in. And vice versa. However if you feel more confident wearing a suit compared to sweatpants then id obviously start wearing suits.

This video overall has a couple okay "tips", But any grown man that needs to copy this video like for like isn't being himself.

I highly suggest everyone to at least lurk /r/malefashionadvice and look at it ocasionally. At the very least you'll get some inspiration, and with some investment you'll improve greatly your wardrobe.

johnnymaddick · 2014-07-22T08:58:51+00:00

This advice is very good for average public. All of us here want to be more than mediocre to achieve more than average results. Your look is a statement to the world and quite powerful one. Depending on what you want to convey you might dress up differently. I experimented a lot with my outfit and when I want girls to pick me up I dress up like this. UNLISTED VIDEO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xoE5jZKsmQ

RamenSlayer013 · 2014-07-22T00:17:39+00:00

Good shit. Only thing I disagree with are the length of shorts. I like the look of extra long shorts that fall just past the knee. Not that I am self conscious about my knees.

Spore2012 · 2014-07-22T02:59:04+00:00

This video is bullshit. Hipster/trendy bullshit on top of that.

I wouldn't be caught dead with any of these tips, and I don't have problems with women or women complaining about how I dress.

LPT: Dress however the fuck you want. And own that shit.

PS- Ban anything to do with buzzfeed in this SR and the rest of reddit and the internet while we're at it.

JC_BOOM_ · 2014-07-21T23:24:35+00:00

Sooo.... is there a part two for how to dress for bigger guys?
