Creating your perfect style and making adjustments to your wardrobe and everyday look doesn’t actually require an overhaul. Sure, it can if you want it to, but mostly when you want to upgrade your style, you’ll need small tweaks, not big changes, and definitely no doubling the size of your wardrobe.
If you want some ideas on how to elevate your style, these tips might be exactly what you’re looking for.
A Better Watch
A watch is a staple for many men’s wardrobes, and it’s one of the few accessories a man will wear day to day. It makes sense then that a good watch can carry a lot of sway when it comes to pulling your style together.
A cheap watch with a plastic strap, for example, can instantly cheapen your look and will stand out for all the wrong reasons immediately.
A better watch, however, one with a simple dial on a stainless steel strap for a reputable mid-range brand like Citizen, Seiko, or Tissot, for example, offers you a classic watch that looks the part and will hold up visually in casual and more formal settings.
Quality Leather Shoes
Shoes are where most outfits fall apart. They are often overlooked in relation to a well put-together outfit, and poor footwear will detract from the whole look entirely.
Good shoes, however, can have the opposite result entirely.
Leather shoes that are well cared for and maintained will not only outlast cheaper shoes, but they’ll elevate your look regardless of the setting. A pair of Oxfords or a clean Derby in dark brown or black will cover the widest of occasions and are perfect for both smart casual and formal looks without needing separate pairs for each.
A Custom Belt Buckle
A belt buckle might seem like a small detail. But they don’t really stand out for multiple reasons.
Custom belt buckles let you move away from the generic pressed metal hardware that typically comes on most standard belts. They give you character and can be an integral aspect of your style that pulls your outfit together.
You can choose a range of design materials and design a buckle that works for an everyday casual look or a belt buckle that enhances more formal outfits.
Pair with a plain white shirt, dark jeans, and leather boots, for example, a belt buckle can complete your outfit, and a custom one can elevate it again.
A Tailored Suit
A tailored suit is a more expensive option for your wardrobe, but if you want to upgrade your style, then you need a well-fitted suit that you can pull out for multiple occasions.
The reason is that a tailored suit is different from one off the rack. It’s bespoke,e made to fit your exact bodily dimensions for a better fit. The measurement for your chest, waist, sleeve, and leg will deliver a well-fitted suit that looks good and feels good. Choose a neutral color and this will outperform multiple cheaper of the rack suits.
