Men's Wedding Bands - How to Choose The Right One?

Men's wedding bands should look classic and timeless, something that will still look dated throughout the years. There are a few things you have to consider in picking the perfect wedding band that suits one's personality and lifestyle.  

Tones - I strongly disagree with settling in silver when it comes to wedding bands. They are tacky and do not last a lifetime. Two-toned are popular as they have two colors such as white gold and gold in a single band. So whether the rest of your jewelry is gold or white gold, your ring is still able to match them.  

Finish - this can add texture to a simple ring. Adding matte with a polished band gives it a little more personality. A little bit of matte adds a bit of a masculine touch. More men's fashion tips will follow very soon.

Stones - are a woman's best friend but not entirely a man's. The cut and size of a stone in a man's wedding band should be considered. For one, a man should not be wearing a big rock in his finger. Small to medium size is enough to give a band a little sparkle. Men should stay away from round cuts and should prefer ones with edges such as square or rectangle for a masculine effect.

Engraving and textures - these can dress up a bare looking band. Accent detailing can substitute for a rock. An engraved message in the inner part of the ring will make it more personalized.  

Size - the width of a man's wedding band should not be too thin otherwise it would look as if it was made for a woman. Before settling on the tone, finish, and style, try the ring on to check the size of the band and see how it looks in your finger.

Men's wedding band should look similar, if not exactly, to that of the bride's. This serves as a reminder of the love you have vowed to share with the person you married so investing in a beautifully crafted ring is something you should not spare.

Hairstyles For Men Based On The Shape Of Their Face

Just like it is often recommended for women, men can improve their appearance, by choosing hairstyles that better flatter the shape of their faces. By choosing styles that flatter the lines and planes of the face, they can create an overall more pleasing look that can be very impressive. By matching the haircut to their face, the end result might very well be a look that they will want to keep for some time to come.

Classic Haircut Style for Men - Appropriate for Every Face Shape

Long considered to be the perfect facial shape for both men and women, any man that has an oval face should be careful to choose cuts that keep their hair back from their faces. The cut should frame the face, but not interfere with its classic lines. For round faces with the standard chubby cheeks, the hair should be cut high, using an off-center part. The cut should not frame your face in any fashion, as it will only emphasize its roundness, perhaps even making it appear fatter.

The typical masculine face is square, with chiseled features and sharp angles. To soften this look, go with a layered cut of intermediate length, to better frame all those angles. Try to avoid having a centered part, and try for a deeply off-center part, instead. If you have a narrow forehead and a wide jaw line, then you have a triangle shaped face. The hairstyles that will work best should focus all of the volume at the top, to help flesh out the narrower crown, and balance it with the wider chin. For the opposite, wider forehead with a narrow chin, the classic heart, should have a cut that is longer, past the cheekbones to better frame it.

Guys, Stay Away from Sagging Pants, Please!

When it comes to men’s fashion faux pas, one of the biggest ones is the ever problematic sagging pants. Guys, let’s face it. This is probably one of the worst “trends” out there, for a wide number of reasons.

First of all, it started in prisons. And no, it wasn’t because it made you look cool and like you were a grade-a gangster. Nope—it started off showing certain men who was “available.” In short, the origin of sagging pants was a signal to other prison inmates with amorous intentions. Not quite as glamorous as one might think. But, these same people still wore their pants this way after they got out…and, probably embarrassed, they just said that it was a sign they’d been to jail.

The point? This is a problematic way to wear pants. First of all, if your house was on fire, you had one exit and your pants were falling down, what would happen to you? That’s right—you’d fall right on down. The problem with this is that most people don’t realize how dangerous it is. It certainly is in the above scenario.  

Secondly, it’s annoying. Guys, when you’re walking slow because you have all the time in the world, alright. That’s completely normal. When you’re walking slow because your pants won’t allow you to go any faster…this can be a slightly more annoying scenario. Men’s fashion has a few faux pas—but this has to be the most annoying one. Let’s face it—if you want to look nice and mature, just pull your pants up. This men’s fashion faux pas won’t make you look any more mature.

Unusual Clothing for Men

So you’re wondering about a few of the men’s fashion trends that you have seen lately (or rather, something that doesn’t look quite right, but they all do…). Maybe they were something that you aren’t used to or perhaps you’re just wondering why they do what they do. Well, in most cases, it’s quite simple. Men wear what they want. However, when trends start to arise, they flock to the trends because they seem manly. Here are a few unusual men’s fashion trends and their origins.

Sagging pants. This has to be one of the biggest annoyances/fashion trends—and it’s fairly humorous where this trend comes from. Many younger men wear it because it makes them feel macho—because a lot of former prison inmates were wearing these trends. Unfortunately, the trend wasn’t an attempt to make themselves macho—but available to other male inmates. In short, never wear this style in prison.

Socks with sandals. Let’s face it—this is kind of obvious. You fuss at him to wear socks with his tennis shoes, in an attempt to please you and any other woman in his life—starting with mom—he’s going to wear socks with all of his shoes to save time.

Next, we have the issue of matching. Many men have the bad habit of not matching very well—and we as women don’t understand it. What we don’t realize is that we are adapted to be able to tell the difference between several colors—it’s part of the hunter-gatherer mindset/evolution. If a certain berry was poisonous, but a slightly different color than its safe cousin, you’d need to be able to tell. Men just had to run after it and pray it didn’t bit back—thus why when it comes to men’s fashion trends, they fail when matching colors.

How to Stay Comfortable & Fashionable

Men’s fashion. Naturally, when you think of the word fashion in any kind of sentence, you’re probably worried about your comfort, which is natural. Believe it or not, most women would rather be comfortable than be stuck in human torture devices (shoes) with four inch heels. But, for men, this is even more greatly emphasized. So how do you stay comfortable while being fashionable?

First of all, take the time to find something that fits you well—maybe even a tiny bit loosely. There is nothing wrong with clothing that is slightly loose. It allows you to move better and it also helps to keep you comfortable. Second, choose cotton or linen clothing. These both breathe very well and allow you to move without being soaked in sweat. If you wear anything that doesn’t breathe very well, use just a tidbit of cornstarch around your joints to help whisk away sweat and also to help with any heat rash. This is especially perfect for when you are dressing up during the summer or spring or if it happens to be unseasonably hot.

 Next, make sure that if you buy pants, well…they’re made for men! What many people don’t realize is that men’s pants and women’s pants are made very differently—because they’re accommodating different things! Men’s fashion isn’t nearly as hard to be comfortable in as you might think. Just keep in mind that you should take the time to match everything appropriately and you should be perfectly fine. These are just a few tips about men’s fashion and staying comfortable.

Fashion Tips To Drive the Girls Crazy – But Not in a Positive Light

So you’re looking up men’s fashion tips and you’re wondering…what kind of things do girls like to see a guy wearing?

Well, for one, they like to see someone who is neat, cares enough about their appearance to stay well-groomed, the usual. This doesn’t mean that you need a manicure every weekend and a haircut every four to six weeks not by any means. However, it does mean that you should at least stay groomed as far as facial hair goes and the like. Next, what can you do that won’t draw a woman’s eyes? (In the positive way, that is…)

First of all, dirty clothes. Sniff test or no sniff test, it doesn’t matter. It isn’t EVER enough for a person, especially if they are attempting to go on a date or anywhere like that. Clean clothes are a must—you could have the most expensive clothes on earth, but without washing them, it won’t mean anything. Then, pants hanging down. This is probably one of the worst things you can do if you’re trying to find an upstanding young lady (or perhaps a more mature lady).

 Hmmm, not sure, girls would this type of styling?!

The point? It’s juvenile—don’t do it. Next, shoes are a big deal. This doesn’t mean that you need to keep your shoes completely clean all the time, every day, all day. However, take care of your shoes. It’s alright if you have two or three pairs or even just one pair that you take good care of—but once they start falling apart, you need to buy a new pair and ditch them. These are just a few men’s fashion tips.
