Essential Men's Fashion Rules: Keep it Stylish

Men’s fashion is only as complicated as you make it. Whether dressing for work or everyday casual, you never need to worry about what to wear next with our men’s fashion style guide. Keep it stylish with these essential men’s fashion rules.

Know Your Measurements

Knowing your measurements is the number one style rule that every man should live by. Understanding your exact measurements is essential because no matter how great your sense of style is, your look will always seem a bit off without your proper fit. Fabric tape typically costs less than $5.00 and offers an incredible return on your investment—this is the easiest way to get away from the frustrations of subjective sizing and start finding pieces tailored perfectly for you. Make notes of the following when you take your measurements:

Neck
Shoulders
Waist
Chest
Sleeve
Inseam

At Berle, we have a selection of tailored trousers to meet your exact specifications. Shop now to find your perfect fit.

Choose Quality Over Quantity

Any time you shop for a pair of tailored trousers or a dress suit, always choose quality over quantity. You and others will see the difference, but more importantly, you will feel the difference every time you get dressed. Sometimes, this means spending a bit more on clothing than you typically would—however, if your ultimate goal is to look sharp and feel great, invest wisely in your wardrobe rather than choose pieces that just barely get the job done.

As a general rule, spend more on the items you wear most. For example, if weekend golf trips are a regular rotation on your schedule, invest in a pair of Charleston Khaki Shorts that resist wear-and-tear. Or, if you spend most of your days in the office, invest in a few pairs of dress khakis that will keep you looking stylish every day of the week. In the long run, you can enjoy more mileage from your investment and stay looking and feeling sharp throughout the seasons.

Buy Classics Over Trends

Once you have your measurements down and you’re on the lookout for quality pieces, remember to always choose classics over trends. A few men’s essentials that stand the test of time include dress khakis, chinos, denim, the henley, the Oxford shirt, and the classic white tee shirt.

After all, you invested time and money into your wardrobe. Now, you want to be sure that your closet is full of items that you can wear not only today but years from now. By choosing quality classics over trends, you can ensure that your wardrobe never goes out of style. Once you have a solid foundation, you can always add a few trendy items to liven up your look.
