Guys,
Noticed a few peeps are asking what they should wear/how they should dress. Because we are all from different countries, cultures, and we all have really different styles no-one can help you this way. Do what I do. Go to a hip high street/designer store (doesn't have to be armani don't worry), and ASK the HB assitants what clothes they would like a guy to wear in their store. They work there, they know all the stock, and plus they are all REALLY helpful, they kinda think it's sweet you ask their opinion. I have actually PU'd twice doin this, and I'm by no means a PUA yet. (RAFC). Buy whatever they tell you they like, even if you don't, this way you know what you are wearing is what the HBs like!!

I just got from shopping for new clothes today, guess with who, this'll be predictable... an ex GF. I called her and said 'hey, I need your opinion/help...' and off we went today.She was in her element and of what we bought we picked up some shoes, a shirt and a jumper I would never have bought had I gone out myself. I'm not that confident with my style yet so when I was presented something I thought 'not sure', I bought it. When presented something where I thought 'no way', I went with gut feel and rejected it. But, I'm sat here looking at them thinking - I've taken another step forward. So yeh, go ASK, go with gut feel, make sure you're confident you can wear the stuff and feel that little bit 'extra' than you were before. Then close on her and make your day! Cy

Hi everyone I'm new here and just have to throw in my two cents since reciently have read a book that talked about this. The gal who wrote the book was describing what SHE would want HER man to wear. The guy who recommeded talking to a store clerk is good advice. Get several opinions. Once I gave the clerk of this store a couple hundred dollar bills to ensure that I'd be right back, walked out of the store into the mall walkway and found three women who I would be interested in dating, asked for their opinions and went back into the store and bought the pair that recieved all three "votes". That said, try not to be a clone. In the book I mentioned earlier, we all would look about alike if we followed her advice. I prefer the non-cookie cutter approach. There is no 1 right way to dress. Get opinions from women add them to your opinion and just see where you stand from that point. Try to incorporate what represents your individual personality as well. And, try to have a variety of colors that you have in your wardrobe. I used to get hooked on blue shirts, for instance. You basically have your shoes, pants/jeans, shirt and accessories. Mix it up a little bit with one of these items being a little bit what is not considered mainstreem popular or whatever. This adds to your individual presentation Your socks should match your pants. There are plenty websites that offer all kinds of advice on this sort of thing. Do some keyword searches and you should have no problem whatsoever picking out clothes to wear. I try and not get too much of the trendy stuff but make sure to have some of that. Also, go for knockout classy casual as opposed to your being too dressy. Think about where you'll be hanging out. Is it a beach bar, a city club or a art gallary? Then, wear what would fit that environment. If nothing else, see what the guys who have all the HB's are wearing at these places and take a few notes.

My tip is peacock with an acessory that you like very much personally so if a lady opens to you, you're more confidant to speak about it.

I'd agree with that.
I've been looking into peacocking but I would feel like a fool wearing massive shoes, a funny hat, and a medallion to shame Mr T. As part of my buying up of loud shirts and designer jeans ( not just labels, I feel just as unoriginal if I'm wearing expensive clothes as I do wearing shabby ones, my favourites are those where an artist has decked them out, kind of graffitied  I bought a Tibetian ring which, although quite inexpensive, looks utterly foreign and intriguing.
If you feel uncomfortable in Calvin Klein or Ralph Lauren then don't purchase them just because they are *respected* labels, as Cyreath says you should "go with your gut", build your own standards.[EDIT] BTW, what is up with the quote button on these boards? I've used it twice so far and it never seems to work correctly. Ah well. (Edited by smoothmove at 8:04 pm on Nov. 27, 2005)

Basically when you want to get some clothes you need to consider for the time, place and the weather. If your goin somewhere dark, wear something light and bright. if your goin to bar, wear casual clothes. And if your tryin to get noticed wear peacocking stuff. You must remember not stick with 1 main thing then go though all different types enviroments. Because it won't work.

Just two tips: shoes and moderate peacock....1) Shoes, ok, once you have a nice outfit, we guys often forget about a nice, clean, well put together and well taken care of pair of shoes....it took me forever to believe that wome REALLY GIVE A DAMN about men's shoes (and fingernails!) But, that do!!!!! Dont JUST wear sneakers (unless ur a teen) buy several nice, comfortable, stylish pairs of shoes (and you dont have to blow a mint on them) and take Good care of them (and your nails!) 2) I dont subscribe to the bizzarer the better peacock theory,( i am a fairly conservative dresser) but having ONE item of "interest" on with my fairly conservative dress (a very cool or brightly colored scarf in the winter, a bling, bling (but not TOO bling, bling, watch, a very cool coat with upturned collar, even in a non-bright color, a pocket square-handkerchief- from a suit coat pocket) will often do the trick, and mark you as a man of confidence, your own style and differentiate you from the pack.... Also, notice how most guys dress...boring, boring and more boring (if not just plain BAD) it does not take much to dress better than your AFC...

Bros, wear whatever the fuck you want, that you are comfortable and confident in. What ever you choose is the right thing to wear. Everything you do and say is right in all ways.
