Stop Date Disaster: Fashion Mistakes You Need To Avoid

No matter how great men are, there are times that they can’t get past an unattractive wardrobe on date night. If a man’s outfit is out-to-date or sloppy, then women can already imagine what their house looks.

Some women will assume that it is dirty, messy, and disheveled, which will completely turn them off.  Here are some fashion mistakes that men needs to avoid when they are dating someone new.

Being Obsessed With Khakis

Men think that khakis are the perfect date night standby, but fashion police say the opposite. Khakis just are not sexy. Trousers are formal, denim is casual, and khakis are complicated. It lacks both the formal look and the casual look, so it is best to refrain from wearing them on dates and stick to wearing the regular jeans.

Khakis are better for a weekend outing with friends or for casual Friday dress code in the workplace. Be it baggy, pleated or belted, all of them are shapeless and can subtract some of the men’s sex appeal.

Wearing a Black Suit

Men should think twice before throwing an all-black suit on a date. Since all-black suit can present itself as uninviting, generic, and it also looks like the wearer has something to prove. When on a date, it is better for men to focus on wearing clothes that are casual which also offers a friendly, down to earth, and confident vibe.

Dressed in a soft button up shirt, soft cashmere sweater, dark colored jeans, black socks, and nifty shoes is a perfect way to create a friendly and casual vibe. However, if the date is a little bit formal, add a non-black suit with a patterned or colorful tie, with a cool blazer will work.

Overdoing Designer Labels

Men and women both make a guilty mistake of allowing the logo wear them instead of the other way round. The approach of wearing and showing off large designer logo looks like they are telling everyone that they can afford to wear the said designer’s clothes. Except that it looks like a man is bragging, it just looks plainly bad.

If a known designer’s emblem looks like a bit too much, men need to tone it down or else they’ll look like a billboard than a fashion-savvy guy. Men can choose one or two quality items then go for a complimentary cut rather than a popular brand name.

Hugging the Wrinkled Shirt

Almost all women hate when men wear wrinkled clothes. Dressed in wrinkled clothes is an indication to women that they are only wearing it because they have no other choice. Never wear a wrinkled shirt especially when going on an interview or date, or else you will be the talk of the town, with a bad image.

Men just need to iron their clothing which will only take a few minutes of their time. Another way men can avoid ironing their clothes is to let someone iron it for them. Wearing ironed shirts always looks neat and dignified.

Almost all men get attracted to women that wear clothing which is not sloppy or wrinkle. It makes sense that a woman’s judgment is not different. Dressing in freshly ironed shirts can convey a message to women that they found the kind of man that they want.

Wearing Clothes That Are Too Small

Nothing in this world can make a woman create inappropriate giggles than seeing a man wearing clothes that are too tight and small for him. If a man wears pants or shirts that look like a sausage casing than apparel, then the fashion police must arrest him.

There is nothing wrong in flaunting the muscle while wearing tight and small t-shirts, however, it is not a great move to allure a lady with such fashion crisis. Sometimes a  man’s style usually reflects his attitude, and some girls think that men who wear an overly tight t-shirt are like cocky playboys.

A shirt must fit properly around a man’s upper body. Also, a tight and small shirt will restrict a man’s movement, which is very uncomfortable.

Wearing Ill-fitted Jeans

Women detest it when men wear baggy jeans, low rise jean, overly long jeans, or any jeans that don’t fit them correctly. It is surprising that a lot of men commits on making this mistake repeatedly. Men will never look like a savvy dresser especially if he is wearing ill-fitting clothing.

Low-waist jeans can end up looking like baggy pants while flaunting their builder’s bum. Keep in mind that wearing an overly skinny jeans is a big no as well. Too tight skinny jeans is a complete turnoff for women because, by then, they can already see everything to a man.

Unkempt Hair

The condition of the hair is essential. Straggly, greasy, and comb-overs are not pleasing to see. If the hair looks greasy, spraying some dry shampoo can prevent the greasiness. Also, if the hair is close to balding consider in getting a very close shave.

Before going on dates, consider on keeping the hair trimmed because it will help in creating a sophisticated look. The hair gives a huge impact to the whole outfit.

Wearing Dirty Shoes

Shoes tell a lot about a person. Wearing polished and clean shoes presents that the man is a healthy man which value cleanliness. Also, he is a type of person that knows the step that he needs to attain success.

Not Being Well-groomed

A man’s appearance can make or break future dates. It only at least seven seconds for a man to make the first impression. Arrive on a date with good clothes, clean shoes, groomed hair, fingernails, shaved beard and extra breath mints in the pockets.

Takeaway

Though there are a lot of things that men need to consider but the fashion mistakes above are the things that usually makes up the reason why a relationship doesn’t progress.
