Styling Tips for Men
Easy and Elegant Styling Ideas for the Groom and His Best Man
Wedding days are huge for everyone involved. Wanting to look your best is super important to everyone as well. Below are some styling tips for men for you and your best man to look your best.
Ties/Bow ties
Ties are typical for grooms and their groomsmen to wear on the big day. However, being picky and choosing the perfect color or pattern could make all the difference. Choosing a certain color and pattern scheme for you and your groomsmen can elevate your outfits and take it up a notch as well as give you an elegant look. You can check out mens styling here.
The groom can wear patterned and colored ties while the groomsmen wear a plain tie but the same color. It’ll give a complete look to everyone but will make the groom stick out. Some swear by ties, however, bow ties are just as classy and elegant. You can use the same pattern and color technique as described above with the ties with the bow ties. This will add something extra to your outfits as bow ties aren’t usually considered traditional but still give a great look to everyone.
Tux or no Tux
Some people are scared of choosing a patterned tuxedo however they shouldn’t be. These patterned suits can add just enough detail to make you turn a typical suit into an elegant and unique one. There are fabrics that don’t have super bold patterns but are just the slightest different to a regular suit that gives it that edge that you want to stand out. However, maybe you don’t want to wear a tux and that is okay too!
There are things you can wear that will still give an elegant feel to the wedding party. Having all of your groomsmen including yourself wear khakis is completely acceptable. Even jeans can be dressed up to fit an elegant and classy wedding. Adding things like suspenders, shoes, ties, or bow ties can make a huge difference in your overall appearance.
Pocket Squares
Though some do not put much thought into pocket squares they are a great way to step up your overall outfit. Adding that pocket square can change the look of your tuxedo. It can be something small but have a great effect. You can have the pocket square match or compliment your tie or bow tie. This will add more elements that will elevate your overall outfit. Saks Fifth Avenue has a large selection of pocket squares that you are sure to find a good match in.
The Fit is Important
A large part of looking your best is also feeling your best. You want to ensure everything fits correctly for not only your comfort but your appearance as well. Having an expensive suit is great and all but if it doesn’t fit correctly it won’t look as good as it could. Going and getting your tuxedo or suit fitted properly is extremely important. Also going at the right time is a part of that importance as well. Ask Man is a site that helps you find the perfect fit and style for you.
Attention to Details
As mentioned above there are smaller components like the pocket squares or tie clips that you can add to enhance your appearance. However, there are details that are sometimes forgotten other than those that can also elevate your outfit. Shoes are commonly forgotten about.
They are important, you need to wear shoes but finding ones that are comfortable is important as well as one that’s a compliment the rest of your outfit as well is even more important. Another aspect that’s forgotten about is the boutonnières. These are an important part of bringing you and your brides to look together. Wearing appropriate colors to accent against the boutonnières is important. It ensures you all come together collectively and collaborate nicely and that no one sticks out more than you or your bride.
Your wedding day is such an important day that you will forever cherish. Looking your best is important but feeling your best is more important and those do typically go hand in hand. You want to look your best but also be yourself. Don’t lose your own personality in the midst of trying to match everyone else as well.
