New Year’s Fashion Resolutions for Men
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with settling into a style that works well for you. After all, many people spend years trying to determine what does and does not work for them in regards to fashion before finding their own unique style. The downside to finding your style, however, is that it can be very easy to get comfortable and avoid pursuing new fashion avenues. This can quickly lead to feeling as if one is in a veritable fashion rut, which can be quite difficult to get out of. Fortunately, there are plenty of things that you can do in order to shift your style towards something new and exciting. The following are just a few tips for changing your style in 2012, all of which are worth taking into consideration.
Emulate a Celebrity:
When it comes to shifting one’s style, many people don’t know where to start. One of the best exercises for changing the way you dress is to emulate a celebrity whose style appeals to you. This could be an actor, musician or anyone else who finds themselves in the public eye. Strive to emulate a celebrity whose style is just slightly different from yours, which will serve as a natural transition and increase your chances of being able to pull off the look of your choice.
Don’t Make Drastic Changes:
A lot of people who set out to switch up their style tend to shoot for drastic changes right off the bat. While it might be tempting to go this route, it’s a much better idea to make slight changes to your style slowly, which can help to make the transition more natural and comfortable. For example, those who dress in an outdoorsy manner are likely to feel extremely self-conscious if they switch to wearing suits and neckties overnight. The more slight the changes you make to your style this year, the easier it will be for you to adapt to your new look.
Get a New Haircut:
One of the best ways to inject some new life into your style is to get a completely different haircut from what you’re used to. Hairstyle can have a dramatic impact on overall appearance, and can even change the way certain outfits look on you. When choosing a new hairstyle, you can get a lot of mileage out of simply allowing the stylist to determine which type of cut might be right for you. After all, it’s typically safest to leave decisions such as these in the hands of a professional.
Buy Used Clothes:
For those who are on a budget, it can be rather difficult to take the chance of buying clothing of a different style than one is used to. With designer clothing being as expensive as it typically is, buying used clothes is an excellent way to not only try out a new look, but stay financially afloat in the process. Choose a store that sells high-quality used designer clothing, avoiding those which do not pay close attention to the products that they buy and sell.
