]]>I particularly loved the feeds of @rowanrow and @blakescott. There were others too, in fact, a lot of them that I loved. I can’t name them all.
Don’t get me wrong. I do know how to look good, but they looked smarter and better. So I started looking for patterns and I found out… they knew colors well.
Aside from knowing colors well, they also had the right accessories to complement their dressing.
With this discovery, I decided to try something new.
At this point, I should tell you I had a bland wardrobe… Pretty basic. I spent more on books and internet subscriptions than I did on my wardrobe. My wardrobe is still bland, but in the next few months, it would be overhauled.
So let me quickly share with you the tips I’ve learned in my quest to know how to dress smart.
Previously, I had the following in my wardrobe…
I bought the following items to complement the ones I already had in my wardrobe.
Having assembled the new items which didn’t cost me much, I set out to note my colors and my wearing routine.
After several hours of feeding my eyes on the Instagram feed of these fashion icons, I learned…
Yes, the color brown is awesome but it has a few rules you should obey. I’ll share the rules with you. I bet some of you want to ask me if black and brown are ok to wear. And some others want to know if shoes and belts need to match.
Let’s quickly get started.
In this section, I’d like to point out something you should do and not do when you’re wearing a specific piece of clothing.
Here are three things you should avoid if you want to look smart.
Now, I’m going to share with you a few pictures that’ll help you look smarter, after all, you’re reading this article because you want to learn how to dress smartly.
Let’s split this into days.
Black shoes with a black belt and a black wristwatch to match grey colored trousers and a black shirt.
Remove the black and replace with brown except for the black shirt.
Brown shoes with a brown belt and brown leather watch to match a black trouser and a white shirt.
Remove the brown and replace with black.
You can opt for a pair of white vans sneakers if you’re going to an informal event. Wear a black belt.
I think I’ll go with a white trouser with black shirt paired with brown shoes, brown watch, and brown belt.
I’d opt for the Adidas sweats and a pair of white vans sneakers. A matching white round neck vest with a brown bomber leather jacket will do great. Or you can keep it simple with the white round neck vest only.
An agbada or senator wear would do. It has to be crisp though, not like the oversized or overtight types I see a lot of guys wearing.
For the next five days, you can mix things up and see what looks great on you. Keep your mirror standby, you’ll need it.
I sincerely believe you enjoyed reading this piece. Personally, I’ve got some fashion and wardrobe goals for the next few months. I’ll probably let you know what’s up as soon as I’ve done a major overhaul.

]]>Lest I forget, you should wear what suits you with these colors in mind.
2. Tan Suit: This color is apt for events during spring and summer months. If you have a dark skin shade, you’d definitely look great in this suit color. Tan suits are considered as business-casual wears and when combined with black shoes, they look great on the wearer. It’s one of the very popular suit colors around.
3. Gray Suit: There are many shades of grey suits available in the market, but charcoal grey, medium grey, and light grey are the most versatile grey colored suits. Grey is the color of elegance, experience, and level-headedness. Charcoal grey suits don’t often go with a black shirt, so avoid wearing them. They are quite easy to match and goes along with a wide range of colors meaning that you are entitled to a large range of ties and shirts. It’s good for work, church, wedding and just about any formal occasion, you can think of. The medium grey colored suit, on the other hand, is much lighter than the charcoal grey colored suit which many often assume is black.The light grey is lighter than the others and has a casual appeal in such a way that denotes a break for the monotony of the usual colors. Grey is one of the very popular suit colors.
4. Black Suits: Many say it is not as popular nor as trendy as the navy blue color, but I doubt. It’s the right color for both formal and solemn occasions. It looks good on many skin shades and fashion experts believe it looks better on dark complexioned men. I bet it would easily go along with plain colors like white, blue and red. Black suits for men are a must have.
5. Brown Suit: Last but not least on our list of the most popular suit colors are brown suits. Brown suits represent conspicuousness and make the wearer strikingly different from all others. Men with dark skin complexions look best in it. Most fashion geeks say that this is the color that signifies rawness and affluence. It also gives out the rustic feel.
These are the most popular suit colors.
I don’t own too many suits, but hopefully, sooner than later, I’d add a few more versatile suit colors to my wardrobe.

Men in Suit: Factors To Consider When Buying A Suit
There’s a popular saying I’ve heard over and over again… “Dress the way you want to be addressed”. I do dress with that sentence in mind. But, there are many factors that influence the obedience of that saying. And when it comes to suits, the first way to make an impression that can last is to wear a suit that suits you, keeping in mind these factors to consider when buying a suit.
I assume you have asked yourself one of the following questions
And so on…
Perhaps, you may have found an answer to the question on notable sites on the internet or your friend has told you that someone they know who’s into fashion thinks that black suits are the most versatile suits.
Or maybe you’re not yet satisfied with their reply…
Whatever the case may be, this post is for you.
What are the factors to consider when buying a suit?
There are quite a few factors to consider when buying a suit or should I say when wearing a suit. Suit styles for men differ generally from that of women. Check out these factors below…
Like I said earlier, the color of your suit is the first opportunity you have to make a first impression. If you wear suits frequently, you’d surely want to stand out and look not just dapper, but also outstanding!
I might just do a post on how to look outstanding in suit… Check out this men’s color and pattern guide.
There are different varieties of men’s suits and they come in various suit styles and designs like 2-piece, 3-piece, single or double-breasted suits. There are tuxedos as well.
So, what are the major differences between a tuxedo and a suit.
The major differences between a tuxedo and a suit as summarized by MyTuxedoCatalog…
The primary physical difference between a tuxedo and a suit is the presence of satin. Traditionally tuxedos have satin facing on the lapels, buttons, pocket trim, and a satin side stripe down the leg of the trousers. Suits don’t incorporate any satin and usually have either plastic buttons or buttons faced with the same fabric as the coat (aka self buttons.) Some modern tuxedo options have minimized the use of satin to a thin satin trim on the lapels and a thin satin bead down the pant leg, but the primary difference between the two is that tuxedos have satin on them and suits don’t. Of course, to every rule there are exceptions. Other physical differences like appropriate accessories generally only come into play when talking about traditional black tie standards. For most modern tuxedo functions like proms and weddings, the lines between what is appropriate to wear with a tuxedo vs. suit have been blurred. It’s common, though increasingly less so, to wear long ties and high stance vests with tuxedos. However, this is traditionally a look only appropriate with suits. Tuxedos are historically only to be worn with bow ties and cummerbunds or waistcoats (low stance vests.)
You surely don’t want to miss that…
