One thing I could use a bit of help with is wardrobe. I've always been a modest "tshirt and jeans" type, but with this new lifestyle I was thinking of "reimaging" myself. Looking for some new duds and wondering what the opposite sex likes to see a man wear.
Visit dappered.com - they do it right, classy without being overbearing. Read a lot, buy very little. If you pay attention they'll teach you how to do manly and put together rather than fashion forward.
I get more looks from women in clothes being understated but right on fit than I ever did from muscles. They like the gift wrapping. :ohwell:
Looks like @CoffeeAndContour has the casual side nailed.
I just checked this out and bookmarked it; thanks!
I pretty much have my wardrobe down and try to buy American made whenever I can; it ain't always easy.0 -

Undershirts and wear - Uniqlo Airism
Ts and Henley's - vneck Supima cotton, all cotton, no poly

Dress shirts - Charles Tyrwhitt slim, on sale at $30 per
Suits - Spier and Mackay or Suit Supply
Ties - grenadine, usually from Chipp, though I prefer tieless and scruffy faced

My favorite pic she sent was "Confused guy on Bicycle" lol
Hahahaha... mine was the last pic cuz C'MON RR... lol
Ryan Reynolds is rediculous, he's a beast. Lean, cut, and bulky. Definitely good inspiration
Not to mention HILARIOUS!!
Ryan Reynolds.... swoon
I only like him if he has facial hair.
I prefer him with facial hair but still swoon over him without. Which is rare for me since I'm not much into clean shaven.
True story: I have never

I wear a pair of Red Wing Iron Ranger boots. I get compliments on them all of the time.
They are wicked comfortable, wear like iron and are American made.
I pair them with dark washed denim and the shirt of my choice.0 -

Right?! I am a fan of tees/jeans on a man
But I have also never cared about name brand .. if they look good on you and you feel good in them.. it will show and confidence, my friend, is everything! 1 -

Positive reception definitely helps with that. Thank you!0 -
My husband wears polo shirts or button down shirts even flannel. Jeans 97percent of the time. I love him for who he is and not what he wears.1

Clothes that fit- not super baggy nor too tight. Clothes that are clean and in good condition.
You could try a button up shirt or sweater occasionally if your wardrobe is usually t-shirts.
Explore what colors look best with your skin tone and hair color. Maybe shades of blue or various pastel colors look good on you.2 -
also... dress for the occasion
blue jeans don't work for every occasion
we're rather casual here, so jeans work much of the time
although, it's good to stand out from the crowd (in a good way)

I leave for a few minutes and we aren't talking about Ryan Reynolds or how nice a man with reddish hair looks in green... Shame...

I do have some black dress pants and shoes for really formal occasions ie: weddings, fine parties, or when i take a date to a real fancy place. But you just cant put a price on a good pair of blues haha0 -

I do best with dark, solid colors i think. Dark purple and dark green go well with my complexion. I'm a pale ginger lol0 -
