    I personally like well fitting Henley's. Long sleeve not short sleeve. I think they are more stylish than a Polo. While a have a few I rarely wear them. I think they are old manish looking.

    Thank you for the advice. I am a slim but physically fit guy at age 56. That being said, I stick to the classic fit suits, dress shirts and pants, etc. imo It suits my age a little better. A guy my age could be perceived as being immature by wondering around in a slim-fit suit. In addition, it has been my experience that if I stay with the classic fit suit for example, (medium lapels, medium width neckties) my clothes tend to stay in style almost indefinitely. This strategy combined with buying quality suits can give a man quite a savings to his pocket book over time.

    Ashley, I like all your videos. When you do them with your husband, I prefer the ones where you are on the left side of the screen. This is because you become the one where the discussions "originate". Dorian then becomes the "reactor" to the discussions, even when he starts something. It lends you greater power, and makes you look much more like it's your brand. Nothing at all against Dorian, I just am looking out for subtle perceptions/impressions of entrepreneurial women who lead their lives well. I did some TV work, and I saw the same thing when I was sitting across from Al Roker and Stephanie Abrams on Weather Channel. You can see what I mean on my channel, as I have copies of those videos there. Al's the star, and he's shorter than Stephanie, so he shows leadership by being on "house left" or "stage right". All the best!

    Dearborn Denim, you can find them online USA made. When you order they size both the waist and length by the inch not every two inches. So you can order a 33x31 for example. Saves the hassle of going to a tailor since they will do it for you.

    And another thing, try out turtle necks. They look great on slimmer guys since it strengthens the neck area. For example a navy turtle neck, sand trousers and a navy or olive sports coat 👍👍

    @6:40 No donot buy longer length. Slim fit pants or jeans taper from knee down as you said earlier. So if you buy 30 length it will have norrower opening than if you hem 34 length to 30. The 34 hemmed to 30 will fit almost like a straight fit.

    I personally feel like v-neck shirts on slim guys is a sort of "all or nothing" thing where it never actually really looks good but if you pull it off in a relaxed way with enough confidence it enhances that confidence like almost no other piece of clothing and the fact that it still doesn't really look good is neglected by all that confidence, idk I just feel like when i meet truly confident and really slim people in v-necks they simply appear less confident in crew-necks, this enhanced confidence personally makes me percieve a slim person in a v-neck much better than a slim person in a crew-neck (this only applies IF he pulls it off with that confidence in a relaxed way and the crew-neck still LOOKS better), this is ofc much more noticable in real life than on screen but if you look at a lot of pictures of (for example) Evan Spiegel in white v-necks you'll still PROBABLY get a sense of what I mean (not 100% of y'all, I know someone who doesn't understand me on this at all)

  • @smarley678
    @smarley678 5 років тому +4

    Unfortunately, for slim men's pants you need to nail the thigh fit and then take in the waist. Most manufacturers make slim fitting pants thinking that all slim guys have no muscle mass. If you are athletic at all, you will have a small waist (like a 29) with reasonably large thighs and calves. Buy the right waist size and the thighs are too tight. Buy 1 or 2 sizes larger in the waist and have the waist taken in at the tailor and you have a better chance on getting a good fit.

    Whenever someone suggests a polo shirt you know it is time to stop listening to their advice ;) Polo shirts have their spot, on the golf course or if you are 55+ years and feel like dessing up...even though you're not :) For some reason these are so popular in the states but go to Sweden and you will have a hard time seeing anyone , who you thinks dress well, wearing a polo shirt.
    oh, and if you are interested in having you clothes fit and look better, just invest in your health and visit the gym 3-4 times a week with an upper/lower split. You can thank me later :)
