If you want to get a pretty good example of what I am talking about, watch Iron Man with Robert Downey Jr. Robert. He looks really cool and hip in his 40’s. He had a really cool style. That sense of style is what you want to reflect. Of course you are not a billionaire weapons genius, but there are no excuses here. You can look almost as good as him if you go to Nordstrom Rack or any Outlet Store. There are tons around you and you need to take the initiative to find them. Ask a woman you know or a girl that’s your friend if they know. Women are the best when you need to know about things like this. Or ask your sister if you have one.
Let me tell you a brief story here. I am a teacher and I had a student that always talked when I lectured. She was very annoying. Well, one day, I got mad at her, but some how we started to talk about fashion.
Back then I a throw back from the Eighties from the “gothic” scene. Well, I would always were black: black top, black pants, black shoes. I thought it was cool, because that was the look that was cool . . . like 15 years ago!
Duh! Well, I told her give me an assessment of my outfit and what she told me shocked me. She said that my black shirt and pants were different color black. One was more faded than the other and that the shade of black was different because they were from different companies. Too, she said that my shoes were thrashed and that I should get new ones. She also said that I should get my haircut into a Faux Hawk.
Wow. She did that in a minute. I was so shocked that I almost fell over. Well, this is from a high school student and she was so socially intelligent that it was unbelievable. Girls and women are 1000 times more smart than we guys when it comes to things that have to do with the social!
Anyway, onwards.
As of this writing, the most “money” jeans I now buy are called True Religions. I have 12 pairs. They cost anywhere from $244 to $300+ a pair. Guess how much I pay for my “badboys” per pair: $69 to $79 dollars at the True Religion Outlet Store!!! That’s like $20 more than new Levis. This is what you have to do. Get it cheap! Buy stuff when it goes on sale.
If your funds are limited, find out your sizes in everything and buy the stuff off of ebay. I was just on there last night and I saw a ton of stuff, designer things on there for pennies on the dollar.
Also, if you are totally hurting in the cash dept. just get one really good outfit and wear that out when you game girls. It’s better to have one or two awesome outfits than 5 cheesy ones.
What I want you to do is ask women in your life, like women you work with, go to school with, your sister or whomever and ask them where there are good outlet stores for brand name designer stuff. Better yet ask them to come with you and have them help you pick out some cool clothes.
When you go, take the magazine pics which reflex the style you want (yesterday’s assignment.) Go there and by some new clothe. Now, only get one outfit. Well, if you can’t get a woman to go with you, email me a picture of your current “look” and I will give you advise as time allows.
Yes, yes, yes . . . I’m too nice. But hey, I want you to have the same happiness I have with my super hot new bride. My e-mail: kurganpua@gmail.com.
