Tips on improving look

nehifish · 2013-07-09T16:04:53+00:00

Don't take anything i write personally, I will just express my opinion on what you could improve! :)

Get a fashionable haircut. Woman love guys who fix their hair and keeps it neat.
Instead of having a shortsleeved shirt, wear a regular shirt and roll up the sleaves(by folding) up to the elbows.
Ditch the speedo sunglasses and yet again go for something abit more fashionable (ask the clerk prefferably a young female one for advice on what would fit you).

That's atleast what I would do. I would provide pictures but I'm at work at the moment. Might do it when I get home.

Crossed arms are defensive body language. Learn your body language, and find body language that projects confidence.

I think /r/malefashionadvice could give you a hint or two... as for me, you look good! Be sure to smile around HBs, though!

Glasses look unfashionable, blue shirt seems to clash with the color scheme and pattern of your collar shirt, and your hair could be styled with some product.

/r/malefashionadvice /r/malehairadvice /r/Fitness are probably a bit better for this. I think you're a good-lookin' cat, though.

Run, run, run. 3 times a week. Start off with 1/2 mile nonstop for 2 weeks untill you get into the routine or its too easy. Once it becomes too easy bump it up to a mile. After that becomes too easy, start lifting immediately after your run. Bam, now you are on track to improving EVERYTHING about your look and the way you look at women. I know it sounds odd, but trust me. Once you get into running, your whole life will change for the better.

Stand up straight and smile, and you'll be one sexy motherfucker.

/r/malefashionadvice

lose these glasses, they're terrible.
get a non plaid or patterned shirt. stick to basic colors like gray, navy, white, black. Remember, that less is more when dressing, so never buy a peace of clothing with something written on it, especially if it's a button down shirt or jeans.
wear clothes that fit
as for the haircut, if you want short hair, wear them really short and visit a barber or shave your head every 3-4 weeks, cause hair tend to look pretty goofy once it grows back.

The most important thing is that you start to see what looks good and what looks bad. Just look at pictures of well dressed people and try to develop your own sense of style.

r/malefashionadvice is good.

I changed my whole wardrobe very recently. I threw 90% of the stuff away. Anything that I would go to my drawer and would not wear because X reason for more than a few weeks. Gone (excepting formal wear of course). This will decrease complexity, make laundry days more efficient for having less stuff, and give you incentive to replace things you have now lost.

look up "inspiration album" or just "album" in r/malefashionadvice and look over those especially the ones of styles you like, study them, see what they're doing that you're not.

Do the same when you're out in public, if you see someone with good style, take note.

the worst thing you can do is reject styles because you think "you couldn't do it very well." try new things, own it. maybe it will stick, maybe it won't.

also shoes. I learned to stop being a cheap bastard when it came to shoes. ehh, i'm still cheap, just less cheap.

contrary to others, I would say I like the short sleeve botton up. keep it in your wardrobe. yes long sleeve's rolled up are baller, but I couldn't stand them in the summer heat.

Everyone here is bagging on t-shirts. I'm going to share my opinion expecting some feedback.

When you're wearing a shirt/tie, ALWAYS wear a t-shirt. It fills out the shirt, makes the color look correct and helps with your sweat. If you're wearing a shirt that you could wear a tie with, still wear the t-shirt. Shirts with buttons on the collars are not for wearing ties. Still wear a t-shirt. If you're going to wear the color open as appropriate with this kind of shirt, get a v-neck.

If you're wearing a shirt like OP, don't have a visible t-shirt. Wear a v-neck or a wife beater if you want. Shirts with a pattern like this can be short-sleeved.

If you have a basically solid colored button front shirt, you can wear a t-shirt underneath if it provides some color/interest to your outfit. Never get a shirt like this in short sleeves. If you want one, get one with a button-down color and roll up the sleeves.

You kind of look like me if I were skinny and pale... we have similar hair, skin tone, etc...

Hit the gym man, sure some of the best PUAs aren't jacked, but getting jacked helped me a lot more than it hurt me... gives you a lot of confidence/inner game to... the more you like yourself, the easier it is to believe that someone else might like you/enjoy meeting you too.

Get a tan... don't need to go 7 days a week, twice a week, every 3 days or so get a simple tan.

Dress with a little bit of style...

put some product in your hair.. I used to do the faux hawk thing, and still do from time to time, but my gf says I've got a "Tom Hardy" thing going on with it down and messy... truthfully I know Tom Hardy is her ultimate celeb-crush so maybe she was just convincing herself I look a bit like tom hardy, but then two other girls have said it in the past 6 months so whatever... I'll take it.

Oh and feel free to PM me if you need advice about the gym/building muscle... I blog (not often) at muscleclass.com and have written a guest post for Nick's readers at TheDatingSpecialist.com - got nothing but love for my fellow redditors/sedditors <3

Clothes that fit!

jbg89 · 2013-07-10T01:38:17+00:00

The easiest way is to emulate a male celebrity that many girls you know like. I'm not saying go all out and be this other person but take some qualities and "apply" them to yourself.

othorton · 2013-07-10T18:46:27+00:00

As somebody else wrote, you need to unfold your arms - folded arms are defensive and uninviting. I'm also fairly fair skinned and blonde, and as such find that lighter clothes suit me better than dark - ditch the lumberjack for a light dress-shirt (long sleeves rolled up) either plain or with a faint pinstripe (vertical stripes give the illusion of you being taller and thinner, horizontal the opposite). Unless you really need it, ditch the undershirt - it makes you look younger and doesn't exude confidence - girls like to see a bit of skin. Final point, get some new shades: you wouldn't wear sports clothes (especially trainers) when you're in a more intimate situation, so why wear sports sunglasses?

Hope this helps pal.

Try growing out your hair a little. It might help for your facial structure

Well first, I'll definitely second the suggestions to go to MFA...spend some serious time there and you'll start to notice things you never even thought of before. A few tips that I can give you though that you'll hear from them: absolutely no short-sleeve button-ups. Unless someone is ridiculously jacked in combination with a very specific cut of shirt, basically no one can pull that off, and instead just makes themselves look like George Michael Bluth. It's considered a major faux pas, and it's flattering to basically no one. It may seem like a subtle distinction, but instead stick with long-sleeved button ups, and roll them up (MFA had a guide on the "power roll"). This will make you look sophisticated, but dressed down. Also, absolutely no weird "complement color" undershirts. That hasn't been in since the early 2000's, and in combination with the sleeves creates a very middle schooler look. Stick with white v-neck undershirts, as they take care of sweat, but aren't visible at the neckline. Finally, the standard advice: lift. Clothes can only go so far, and they work so much better if they're on a muscular frame.

I would start by smiling.
