This article is aimed at men who are looking to improve their individual style. The manner in which men dress can be a key source of embarrassment for their children.
A Real Problem?
As parents, many individuals are aware of the impact they can have on their children in various aspects of life. Probably one of the lesser-considered aspects we look at is how our individual style can be a great source of embarrassment to our children. This can of course, go both ways, as children can get annoyed at Father’s for wearing clothes which make them appear too “Dad like” and generic. On the other side of the coin, children can at times be embarrassed by parents who embrace the current men’s style ideas and perhaps appear out of place in their current clothes.While I am in no way suggesting you sign over your wardrobe to your children, it does not mean that you cannot take a fresh look at men’s style and give your wardrobe a much-needed boost.
Looking Around
Something that can help to kick us into gear is looking at other parents. This can be especially jolting if we see someone of a similar age who looks great and clearly is aware of how men’s style will enhance his look. So what are the steps you need to take individually in order to relaunch your own personal look as well as saving your children from the cringe worthy outfits you have subjected them to in the past?Honesty Time
Have a good, long, and honest look at your wardrobe. If your fashions appear out of date, then the truth is that they probably are. Think about the last time you actually invested some time and money into choosing proper men’s style, and then come up with a plan for the future. Now we are not saying you need to throw away everything in sight, however losing the oldest and most ragged looking garments is always a great place to start.Rebooting
One of the biggest things to look at with the potential to make a huge difference is changing up the colours and patterns you are wearing. If you have shopped in the same place for years, then try somewhere else. Exposing yourself to other ideas and types of men’s style will help you build a picture of how you wish to look and the garments you will need to buy.Carrying out these simple steps will put you on the road to men’s style success, and importantly your children will know they can rely on you to never embarrass them, at least with how you are dressed, again.
