Man Fashion Tips: Men Dress Shirts for Skinny and Short Man

If you are short and thin, dressing up can be quite the hassle. You are going to look like you are drowning in a shirt if it is not made to fit your figure. Despite having a small frame, there are a few ways on how to look great in a dress shirt.

Short height does best with slim, streamlined details. Pick narrow collars whose points aim downward over wide spread collars as broad collars make you look stouter than you really are.

It is important to have the length of the sleeve and the shirt adjusted to suit your body measurement. Nothing looks more awkward than having the sleeves that hang down too far or shirt that is too wide at the waist. A trim fitted dress shirt with the pocket and collar in the right size will stop you from looking like a flying squirrel.

This is a little optical illusion that you could use well to your advantage. Vertically-oriented patterns on dress shirts compliment short figures. Horizontal line going across will only make you look wider instead of taller. However if you are aiming to look broader, vertically striped patterns such as plaid or windowpane patterns make flattering choices. Do not go overboard with loud plaids and windowpane designs, choose more subtle tonal varieties. Dressing in dark colors from head to toe will only emphasize your skinny body frame. If you wish to avoid emphasis on your small body frame, add in a splash of white or light gray to break the whole one colored outfit. Avoid anything with over excessive stripes in varying colors and sizes as it can be a little overbearing to the eyes. Thin, simple stripes make you look elegant and taller than you actually are.

Another piece of advice for a man of short height is to remember that dress shirt is to always be kept tucked in. Shirttails that are let loose shorten your legs dramatically. Un-tucked dress shirts will cut your body in half and make you look particularly stumpy. Tucking in your dress shirt makes sure your leg line is maximized. Men with longer leg lines naturally give the illusion of being taller.



Regardless of what kind of body shape Mother Nature gave you, making the most of what you were given will make you look better and help you feel more confident.

Mens Hairstyles: 3 Hairstyles for this Winter

Trends for men’s hairstyle this winter are above average cuts short, both of the sides and back of the head short while longer on the top. However, just because a certain hairstyle is in trend, it does not mean you can get it without considering whether or not it fit your face shape. The biggest mistake you should avoid  is to follow blindly the hair trend that does not go with the shape of your face.

Close on the sides

This style is cut close on the sides and back all the way up to the point where the head starts to round at the top. If you have an oval face shape, you are lucky as we normally classified this face shape as ‘perfect’ face shape. This versatile face shape allows you to wear almost any hairstyle you desire. Consider this haircut this winter that is stylish and yet low maintenance.

Slick back hairstyle

When you think of slick back hair trends, actors like George Clooney and Leonardo Di Caprio comes into mind. The former plays a large part in influencing this trend and the latter always grace the red carpet with it. But this year, the only thing that is going to be slick back is the fringe with lighter hues running through a glossy mop of hair. However it is best advised if you only do this hairstyle in a dry weather. If it snows frequently, this hairstyle is not advisable as the snow will dampen your hair and it will hang down instead of stay up. This hairstyle goes well with a square and oval face as slicking your hair back will help make your face seem a little longer and it will emphasize on the square jaw that most men envy.

Disheveled hairstyles

Sometimes we also called Messy hairstyle, covering your forehead with hair will make your face seem wider. If you have wider cheekbones than the forehead or chin, this kind of hairstyle will compliment the shape of your face. Disheveled hairstyles will fill out your face at the forehead and chin while being close to your head at its widest point. However, avoid over-styling your hair when you want to achieve the tousled look as it might end up looking unnatural.

Finding the right hairstyle is hard but not impossible. Understanding the shape of your face simplifies the search for the perfect hairstyle. Be adventurous and do not hesitate in trying out new hairstyles to find which fits you best.

Mens Designer Watch: Breitling Chronomat GMT

With this tradition in mind,  Breitling’s new Chronomat GMT lets you adjust instantly to the time and date on your arrival while maintaining a 24-hour home-time display without losing any precision in counting the minutes. Equipped with the new Breitling Caliber 04, entirely developed and produced within the company workshops, the Chronomat GMT is a special chronograph offering a smoothly functional dual timezone system.

The thing we sometimes find uncomfortable with Breitling is the design of the watches as we think it is too bulky but we are sure the style has its ardent followers. Equipped with two central hour hands, the first matches the minute hand and runs over a 12-hour scale, while the second is tipped with a red triangle and runs in 24-hour mode. When the user is in his home country, the two hour hands move in a perfectly synchronized manner.
