Not smoking is an option

Do we have to have legal knowledge or a stack of lawyers handy to dress well, or advise people how to do that?
I am certain that dressing better cannot harm anybody and bring a lawsuit.

Having to have a disclaimer for a style blog is weird, but you got to protect yourself, for sure

Even in summer, I'd buy one if I found one my size.
This is the kind of accessory to have in your wardrobe - in fact, it is a must have.
I however noticed, from fashion magazines, that most tend to come with hoodies, and they also look cool.
I own one that's meant for rain (quite the same outside feel as a parka) and cold weather, with a hoodie and faux-fur inside. It's gorgeous to wear, and the ladies, of course, love to run their hands on it.

Dear friends in style,
I have noticed a question has not been raised: what about not wearing belts?
I have tailor made trousers that have elastic bands on the side strapped to buttons.
I have always held the belt in dislike as they cut the silhouette in two.
And lately, stylish and classic belts were hard to find in my country.
Guess I'll have to try and order Anson belts - these are beautiful.

So, what's your take on no belts?

PS: wearing no belts doesn't show under a waistcoat or with a suit

rmrstyle Thank tou for your reply and advice.
I will start practicing wearing a wrist watch again.
In fact, I stopped when I realized I had too many watches & did not know which one to wear. I have since given a few away, and am left today with only a few beauties, which I should use.
Thank you for the tip

Oooh, last waistcoat button. I really can't agree about that one, unless I am given a good reason, which must not be the midriff comfort.
I always leave the last jacket button undone, but I believe the original function of the waistcoat is to keep appearance tidy. Even if a fashion loving king made the world believe it was the trend.
Plus, I have a question about jacket/waistcoat buttons: can old fashioned emblazoned buttons be used today?

@SGstyle @effortlessgentrmrstyle I still question myself about the wrist watch. Is it really compulsory? I don't like wearing them, although I do own beautiful ones.
I am currently using a pocket watch, like they used before WWII, because i like these.
Does a watch really matter? I'll wear one if it makes a real difference, but I need to be convinced.
And you, Lady Megan, and gentlemen, are the right persons to provide the precious advice.

Thank you.

rmrstyle StyleGirlfriend Electrogent I am actually trying my best to do better in the art of conversation.. My current circle of friends include a lawyer, a smooth talker, a high profile manager, an auditor-accountant - people that I observe a lot, n I try to learn what makes it so easy to speak in public n captivate attention. For the time being, we have the listening skill as something in common. But I have greater ambitions now.

It's terrifying enough to say that every single young adult I see had replaced the briefcase with either their laptop case (deadliest of sins), the satchel - postman like - which is acceptable, or the backpack, inherited from Europeans consultants flooding the market. Backpack with suits. Is this reality?
I'll try and stick to the leather briefcase as long as possible. There is no need to swap to something less stylish. James Bond would agree.

There is something about suits that are different from the any other type of men's clothing.
When I went for my driving license tests, I took a day off. However, I followed a friend's advice and was fully dressed up: white shit, striped tie, black suit, and briefcase. While most young men were complaining about the attitudes of the police - those nervous cops are potentially delivering lethal weapons if they misjudge someone's clumsiness behind the wheel - I have to say that the same policemen were very polite and helpful during that whole day I spent at their premises.
Although I would not say I was treated in a privileged way, I witnessed men with serious responsibilities deal in the best possible way with people who don't even think about that aspect of life: taking responsibility.

Hello everyone
I agree with above and below
I'll add that it's also important to take care of your skin. You don't want to look as if you not caring for your face.
Try researching about what's best for your face, for example. You may want the world to know you spend your life working hard in the sun, but it's worth it if you still have good skin.

And, most importantly, be clean. Make your wife proud. Two showers a day are important. Find and use product that clean and detox your body. Perfume will not make you forget you did not shower.
And the Internet must probably be filled with e-articles about how to be clean, so do a little research. The most stylish clothing and shoes, the best products are worthless if you do not take care of the essential: your body.
Somewhere, someone notices if you don't.
Thanks to Megan and Antonio for taking the time to put this down.

StyleGirlfriend Electrogent True. I am a man of few words, because I am very bad with conversational skills. It's killing me frankly to see people yawn as I stumble to speak out
