They just don’t feel the need to go out and spend a bunch of money on flowers, candy, food, etc. Boys really like keeping things quiet and on a budget. On the other hand, really need a reason to go out and celebrate, to enjoy themselves together, maybe in a movie theatre or someplace nice… 

Valentine’s Day 

Anyway, here comes the biggest problem, their dressing. Girls are  the experts on fashion and dressing stuff, the same things will just easily make boys freak out. Polo-T shirts , jeans or suits?   What on earth is the perfect Valentine’s Day dress for men?  I, as a girl, haven’t think enough about my own dressing, so have got no time to give them suggestions. So I am here to do them a favor to ask if any men here has started thinking about it and if yes, what have you got?

UGG 

 1  Get the right ones. Pick a pair of UGGs in the color and style that best fits your lifestyle. They come in a slew of styles, from plain and lace-up to knee-highs, clogs and slippers. Depending on what you plan on wearing them for, you can have a whole collection of UGGs. 

 2  Choose the occasions. Wearing them with skinny jeans (if you are a female) seems to be the latest craze, but UGGs can be worn with any type of jean. However, contrary to popular opinion, the traditional UGG is not accepted as appropriate office wear, for nice restaurants or as a replacement for truly stylish footwear. The UGG was created for comfort as a work shoe and to wear around the house on colder days to keep the feet toasty. It was not created to wear with business suits or nice dresses and looks ridiculous when paired with things like that. 

3  No heavier legs plz.  Although women wear UGG boots with shorts and skirts, it really isn’t a good look, particularly if your legs are heavier. The clunky style of the boot makes your legs look heavier than they are, which is never a good fashion statement. While the boots are often worn by surfers who don them to warm up their feet after being in the cold water, the concept of wearing them with a mini-skirt to walk around Melrose Avenue in LA is silly, no matter what the fashionistas say. It looks just plain messy and lazy, particularly when you’re talking about wearing sheepskin-lined boots in 80 degrees. 

 4  Stay away from wet. You shouldn’t wear UGGs in wet or muddy conditions. While they are warm, they do not have water-repellent qualities and will instead absorb and hold the moisture. 

5   Color.  Choose the color of UGGs with care, as lighter UGGs will look dirty more quickly. Because they are worn outside of pants, you can’t hide a dirty UGG.

And now for the grey cardigan, matched with leggings, high-waisted jeans or even lace tights – the cardigan allows for huge layering potential – and this can often obliterate the need for a huge heavy winter coat. Strive to a grey awesome look. Or let yourself reminisce over your schooldays, by pairing knee socks with a more oversized style. Check out the piles of sweaters online or flea markets for an Abercrombie Fitch “grey” cardigan.

It may be that no one will ever succeed in wearing the cardigan as well as our grandpa who stay in the yard all day long in quiet and peace, but winter is beckoning for us all to try this trend out. So, go for the old, or the oversized or both – just be sure to always do it grey way. Make your own style.

Now is a good time to provide a bit of insight as to what those fabrics are and other logistics associated with using them in men’s clothing.

• Cotton – Of course, this is the most commonly used material in not only men’s casual clothing, but casual clothing as a whole. It’s a readily available commodity, comfortable, easy to launder and breathable. It’s a can’t miss fabric that’s been used through the ages.
• Angora – What many may not be aware of is its origin from the angora rabbit. It’s most often combined with wool to lower the retail pricing, but it’s quite comfortable and luxurious feeling. It’s fluffy and can sometime shed. It’s most often found in gloves, scares and hats, but can sometimes be found in tailor-made suits.
• Barathea – This is indicative of silk or rayon combined with cotton or wool. It presents with a fine texture and “pebbled” surface. Most often found in men’s formal wear.
• Beaver cloth – This is a wool with a heavy nap that’s considered very warm wearing. It’s quite elegant and is usually chemically altered to ensure a glossy shine. Usually found in heavier winter coats.
• Camel Hair – As the name implies, it’s fiber from a camel and is usually blended with wool for additional softness.
• Flannel – Usually a combination of cotton and twill. It’s a hearty fabric that is used in cold weather. Quite popular with hunters.
• Canvas – Linen (yes, really) and cotton blend that’s used in some heavy winter coats used by fishermen and others who spend considerable time in the rough outdoors.

Of course, these are just a few of the many fiber combinations that are used in the clothing industry. But enough to make a named fashion.

Shopping online seems to be the latest trend and a good way to follow fashion. That’s probably why more and more people are spending money online. Honestly, I don’t know how I survived all those frantic holiday seasons before I was offered the magic of online  shopping.

Take heed, online shoppers – here’s the best of the best online shopping tips:

• Double check and then triple check the online merchant’s return policy. No matter how good the deal, if you can’t return it, you’re defeating your purpose.
• While you’re checking the return policy, you’ll also want to ensure there are no stipulations that you must make returns in an actual store. Again, you’re defeating the purpose and if there is something you need to return, you’ll swear you’re standing in line on Christmas Eve.
• A great sale doesn’t always equate to a great buy. Make a list of who you’re buying for and include that perfect gift you made a note of last October when your sister mentioned the latest Ed jeans she wants. Stick to the plan and avoid the jumper that’s 90% off from three seasons ago. You’re not doing anyone any favors.
• Ensure your orders will arrive in time for Christmas. Also, make sure there’s a phone number and a physical address in the website’s ‘About Us’ information. Don’t get scammed; it only leads to ill feelings. You’ll have everyone convinced you’re capable of bringing even Scrooge to his knees.
• Pay attention to discount codes. Many online retailers offer additional savings if you enter coupon codes. Often, these codes are easy to locate in a banner on the site’s home page. Even if it’s a 5% discount, it’s worth the additional thirty seconds to double check the home page for additional savings.
• For me, the temptation is often too much and I discover I’m even buying wrapping paper and scotch tape from an online discount store. I’ve made a deal with myself, though. If free shipping isn’t offered, I don’t buy these types of merchandise online or at least, I only buy them if I already have gifts in my electronic shopping cart. If I’m not careful, I discover I’ve spent more in shipping costs than the total of the order. I mean seriously, who am I really hurting if I buy fifteen rolls of scotch tape just to ensure the shipping costs are less than the actual purchase?

Finally, go with your instinct.  If a site looks hokey, steer clear.  If its policies aren’t transparent, steer clear.  The goal is to wrap up your Christmas and holiday shopping with as little stress – and rolls of scotch tape -as possible. Or name it “surviving in the online fashion rush”.

• Socks and sandals: they’re about as compatible as weddings and rain. So please avoid this disastrous combination at all costs. Pick a side, guys – either wear sandals or wear your socks with tennis shoes. We’re not digging that look at all.
• Step away from your teenage son’s closet; nice and slow and there won’t be any problems. You’re not his “bud” and you’re not 18 anymore; and that’s OK. Take the plunge – adulthood isn’t quite as bad as it seems.  For a grown-up casual look, consider the Ralph Lauren Polo T-Shirt.

• Yeah, we’re impressed with the results from your five-days-a-week workout – but really, the tight tee-shirt isn’t necessary. We see it. You’re powerful. You’re strong. You’re the hero. Please – allow our imaginations a bit of fair play.  A great tee that shows off your best features?  Try the Classic D&G  T-Shirt.

• No Novelty Allowed! That should be a sign in every man’s closet that has a penchant for novelty clothes (think flashing ties and tees with bow tie graphics).
• We’re all about those days that were made for wearing sweats. We live for them as much as you do. The kicker, though, is your insistence to wear the sweats complete with ketchup stains (or chocolate, beer…pick your stain). It doesn’t reveal a sexy devil-may-care attitude you’re hoping for; instead, it reveals a, “Hey? Wanna do my laundry?” approach. Instead, don this Abercrombie Fitch hoodies and you might just have volunteers to do your laundry before the day’s over.

• If it doesn’t fit, consider staying its lifetime sentence in your closet. Give it to charity or pass it on to a friend who can wear it.
• Let’s bring it full circle with another thought on socks – white sports socks not allowed with dress trousers! Not ever. Seriously – it’s a law. Somewhere. Casual pants like khakis or anything dressier requires the appropriate socks.

To be a gentlemen, keep these tips in mind to suit up- with the solemn promise to never break them.

So, how to dress to become a beauty? Here is some tips for you to retain the strengths and discard the weaknesses.

Large Hips: Draw attention away from childbearin’ hips by wearing solid, deep colors on the bottom with light or bright colors on top. Instead of tapered leg jeans or pants, try relaxed fit bottoms with a bootcut leg. Stay away from garments that have excessive pockets or details at the hipline. Say no to straight skirts, opting instead for an A-line silhouette. Oh, and lest we forget, avoid pleats like the plague.

Small Bust: To appear a bit fuller on top, wear shirts that have details or pockets at the bustline. Layering is another strategy that works: Try a cute tank top under a cardigan or button-down shirt. Floaty, loose-fitting blouses are also an excellent choice, but be sure to avoid plunging necklines.

ED Hardy Hoody

Large Bust: A little too well-endowed? Try open necklines like V-necks and U-necks. Super-clingy fabrics should be avoided, as should large patterns and prints. As far as sleeves go, opt for those that are long or elbow-length. Avoid short capped sleeves.

Broad Shoulders: If you have wide, strong shoulders, stay away from shoulder pads, boat necks, horizontal stripes and boxy sleeves. Try V-necks, which pull the eye down and away from the problem area.

Large Stomach/Waist: Avoid snug waistbands and the “tucked in” look if you’re thick around the middle. Also stay away from straight skirts and fabrics that cling over the stomach. Dresses with empire waistlines are a good choice, as are graceful A-line skirts.

Too Short: Petite girls who wish to appear more elongated should try short skirts, clamdiggers and capri pants. Avoid busy prints and cuffed pants, and try not to chop up the body with contrasting bold colors. Stay away from garments that are bulky or oversized, such as puffy bubble jackets.

Too Tall: Don’t hunch over! Tall women who want to de-emphasize their height can do so by wearing horizontal patterns, textured fabrics, and longer or flared skirts. Short skirts can work as well, especially when paired with knee-high boots.

Overall Heaviness: The hype is completely true: black is a very slenderizing color. Dark, solid colors tend to be quite slimming in general, but this certainly doesn’t mean that larger girls should stay away from bright or light shades. Loud prints should be avoided at all costs, however, as should oversize “tentlike” clothes, which make it obvious that you’re trying to hide something. Opt instead for well-fitting, tailored looks that cling in all the right places–but just not too tightly.
