“Style is Knowing who you are, what you want to say and not giving a damn.” — Gore Vidal

Everyone associates style with fashion; however the definition of style is: a particular kind, sort, or type, as with reference to form, appearance, or character. This means that there are different components of style such as the clothes you wear, the way you walk and talk, the way you are groomed.

Key components of style are derived from the individual’s attitude and confidence. A man could be wearing a $5,000 Tom Ford Suit and look shabby, because he may lack confidence and attitude to pull the suit off or the suit may be poorly tailored. Have you ever seen a guy who just had on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt and looked like a million dollars? I have and the reason why the man in the $5000 Tom Ford suit does not look as good as the man in the pair of jeans and T-shirt is because of a number of reasons. First, the man in the $5000 Tom Ford suit may have poor posture, disposition, and confidence, he may not look good in anything. Whereas, a man who is fit and healthy, has good posture, disposition, and confidence can look great in almost anything. This is what I call presence. Keep in mind also that any article of clothing must fit properly and worn properly. The following components that we will discuss in the Style Section are: The Suit, The Dress Shirt, Neckwear, Dress Pants, Footwear, Casual Wardrobe, Accessories, Outerwear, Formalwear, and Maintenance. We will discuss being fit, posture, and confidence in other sections of this website.
