The outward appearance matters to everyone, it is undeniable. However, women have hawk eyes when it comes to observing how a man manages his sense of fashion and hygiene. You don't have to be like Christian Bale in "American Psycho" to get a girl's attention. Being attractive is always useful, but looking after yourself and always being in order is crucial! We will analyze some useful steps to become an unsurpassed Casanova, or a casual man who knows his stuff.

Steps

Method 1 of 4: Hygiene and care of your appearance

Step 1. Throw yourself in the shower

Step 2. Once dry (and after using the deodorant), look in the mirror

Step 3. Get your beauty kit (every man should have one)

• You should have just shaved and the sideburns should be precise unless you have a particular look.
• Acne should be kept under control, moles cannot be treated, but medicinal treatments for acne should be sufficient.

1. Approach the mirror, consider the possibility of a girl talking to you from very close range.

2. Use a nose hair clipper even if you don't think you need it.

   Your unibrow should be kept at bay (i.e. NO EYEBROW)

3. Comb your hair. Hair should be in place, at least not messy or greasy. Not many manage to look stylish without hair, but if you're one of them, go wild.

4. Handle your beard however you like, but mustaches are not very fashionable right now (said by a Caucasian man).

   

   Step 4. Make sure your nails are trimmed and clean

   

   Step 5. And before you start dressing, CLEAN YOUR TEETH

   Not brushing your teeth, flossing and a little mouthwash is a cardinal sin in your eyes, unforgivable

   

   Step 6. Bring some mints or chewing gum, especially if there's a dinner planned

   

   Step 7. If you have enough space in your pocket, it's a good idea to bring a comb (not only do women find it fun, but your hair may need it later in the evening)

   

   Step 8. Spray some perfume or body spray if you wish (some don't like it at all), but take it easy

   Method 2 of 4: Get dressed

   

   Step 1. Take care of your clothing

   Clothes should be well kept (no holes or stains) and not wrinkled. If applicable, iron your pants or shirt.

   • Trying to go out without a tie by trying to hide a missing button, whether it's at the bottom of the shirt or on the sleeves, is a classic mistake.
   • Girls quickly notice small discrepancies like this one.

   

   Step 2. Make sure there are no threads dangling from the shirt

   

   Step 3. Don't wear shorts

   It goes without saying, but keep in mind where you are going and remember what Carmine Lupertazzi said: “A boss never wears shorts”!

   • Unless you're going to a summer night barbecue, jeans or pants are the best choice. Normal or wide pants are ideal, but if you have the courage to wear military pants go ahead.
   • Faded jeans with not too big holes are quite fashionable nowadays, but if you decide to follow this path, don't give the impression of having just come out of a Nirvana concert.
   • Your pants should go beyond the shoe and arrive right at the height of the sole.

   

   Step 4. Make sure there are no tags protruding from your clothes

   

   Step 5. Choose a cute shirt

   You can't go wrong with a traditional polo or shirt, but wear a T-shirt at your own risk, and avoid pockets!

   Method 3 of 4: Accessories

   

   Step 1. Wear something to match

   If you really have to wear jewelry, keep a low profile.

   

   Step 2. Try a hemp necklace or bracelet instead if you feel comfortable

   

   Step 3. The cuffs always add a touch of elegance to your shirt, but don't overdo it, or you might look tacky

   

   Step 4. A beautiful watch is always the right choice, but not digital

   Unless you're over 35, a thick leather band is no less than a metal one (non-adjustable)

   

   Step 5. Don't wear rings, or at least not too many

   You shouldn't go to a billionaire meeting, so try not to wear more than 2 or 3 rings if you really have to. Find a one-of-a-kind piece for yourself, it's a good excuse to break the ice and many girls will be impressed by your originality!

   Method 4 of 4: Controlled / Finishing touches

   

   Step 1. Take a last look in the mirror

   • Is everything in its place?
   • Are your pants matched with the shirt?
   • Do accessories clash with clothes?
   • Are your shoes elegant without being tacky?
   • Does the collar fit snugly around the neck?

   

   Step 2. Have a friend check you out if possible

   

   Step 3. Make sure your hands and teeth are clean, practice your smile in the mirror, and make sure you have a good posture

   

   Step 4. Don't keep your head down and don't hunch over while walking

   

   Step 5. Walk with your head held high, chest out, shoulders back, and take moderately long but slow steps, as if you were someone important

   Whether you are at a casual dinner, a bar, a nightclub, a club or a hangout, your clothes are as attractive as you make them appear. Now go out there and get busy, brother

   

   Step 6. Done

   Advice

   • Another note about jeans: if you are a bit chubby, the wider models are recommended, while a tight look is more suitable for a slender gentleman.
   • If you decide to opt for jeans, white tennis shoes match perfectly, but if you have another idea and you are sure, go your own way.
   • If you're wearing a watch, make sure it's on the opposite arm to the one you're writing with. I've seen people make this mistake, and even a classy girl will notice it.
   • Try not to keep too many things in your pocket. Keep your keys, tires and pens in your coat to avoid stuffing your pockets. Psychologically, you will feel heavy and not relaxed with too many protrusions in each trouser pocket.
   • Speaking of pea coats, if you are wearing a sweater or any woolen garment, run a sticky brush over it. Being covered in lint and dust is not attractive at all.
   • This gentleman's agreement varies from person to person, but the general rule of thumb for trousers is: the darker they are, the better. Some men with darker skin tones can get away with white or light-colored pants, but in case of incredibly light skin, avoid them.
   • In case you are not wearing a tie, unbutton the top button of your shirt. Trust me. Also keep the sleeves loose. If you want, unbutton them completely at the wrists, roll them up a couple of times and pull them up to the lower end of the elbow.
   • If it's cold, wear a coat or jacket that matches your outfit. Something like a pea coat is fine, but a sports coat will do just fine too. No hoodies, down jackets or anoraks, that's just not the case.
   • If the belt is visible, it should usually coordinate with the shoes. Personally, I wear a tan belt with jeans even with white shoes, but it's never too obvious, and always better than a white belt.

   Warnings

   • Watch out for white or light shades, especially if you intend to go wild in the disco or eat meat or other "rebellious" foods. The spots are quite difficult for anyone to hide.
   • Remember to keep your breath fresh all night, especially after a heavy or spicy dinner. If there is one thing that is unbearable for women, it is bad breath!
   • Unless you're headed to a formal, strutting event, don't tuck your shirt into your pants. They will laugh in your face. There was a time when men could afford such a thing, but that time belongs to the past.
   • When refreshing the scents, apply a little on the neck, ears and wrists, but don't overdo it, just a drop is enough. Your she might not explicitly complain, but aromas that are too strong could have serious side effects.
   • I forgot: wear clothes of the RIGHT size! Even if you were the huge T-shirt type, and even if it was an accepted look in some clubs, it still looks rough. There is no question that a man with just the right size or even tailored clothes looks more and more in order and gives off almost esoteric, mysterious vibes. There is nothing more ridiculous than shorts (in the sense of "not the right size, which reveal the socks) or a shirt / jacket that is too big. You don't have to look flooded, but wearing clothes that adhere to your general shape also accentuates your build, and will be of immense help if you are a little round.
   • On the other hand, remember that there is no escape from tailored suits, shirts or trousers. A slight change in weight within a few weeks can turn your tailored suits into an obvious disaster.
