not everything in the article has to be a top essential/must-have. they are suggestions, and will not apply to everyone.

I don't know what kind of neurotic tards you hang around, but wearing a polo the right way doesn't make you a douche. That was a bad comment and the commenter should feel bad about the comment which was bad. Hey tripfag, shut the hell up.

But to say you need a colorful scarf proves you know nothing about being stylish and the items that actually look good in this article are nothing more than accidentally picked, and did not come from somebody who knows how to dress. protip: you are not an anime character or a jrpg stereotype, you do not need a colorful scarf, ever. The same goes for the sunglasses, you can only pull them off if you're a gay porn actor (and I don't mean some shitty twink on his webcam, a real muscled, hairy, macho top) Similarly, polos only work on actors that play the roles of rich spoiled kids (for example Carlton from Fresh prince of Belair) and nowhere else. Anybody else that sees you wearing a polo will think you're the biggest douche ever (and since you decided to wear a polo in the first place, you probably are, but it's still a bad first impression) This is a bad article and the author should feel bad.

You want to look good? Spend some time and explore what you like, what colors look good on you, what patterns look good on you. Don't be afraid to try on a bunch of different and new things. Shop around. But remember it has to be something you are happy with that looks good on you. Discard popular trends in favor of personal satisfaction and comfort. Be yourself and let your clothes agree with you. Otherwise you're just another fashion clone in the making. Fashion trends come and go. You want to look good?

Every suggestion is like something out of a brooks brothers catalogue and everyone fits into the Abercrombie and Fitch mold. one of the greatest ways to put together a good outfit is to look at the mannequins. They are designed by marketing experts on combinations that will look good on majority of people. Not everyone is built like a hollister surfer. in addition to the plain tee suggestion, avoid tshirts with jokes on them like "I'd hit it" piñata and the "protect your nuts" squirrel. Its like walking up to everyone you see and telling them the same bad joke. It's only funny on the display stand. Seems to me like this is just a sponsored article.

The tie bar being the most stylish. Also, in this day and age, any man looking to make an impression on any upscale employer should always sport an American flag on his lapel, it screams, I'm a capitalist and I love big business and money just as much as you boss. Now go get 'em tiger, because your hard work and fashion savvy really payed off. A relatively complete list;however, no man should ever be caught without the classic tie tack or tie bar.

Like the Polo RL two-button suit for over 1,000? I've gotten a very nice suit for about $300 from JC Penny's (tailored of course). But that's just how I feel about it. It seemed like you were going for more of the Mid-upper to premium kinds of styles. It provides some nice ideas though. Pretty typical list, but I would have liked to see some more variety in brands.
