August 2, 2018

Makeup is not just restricted to the fairer sex and has very much made invaded the male territory. More and more grooms are going for a makeover on their wedding day by donning makeup. Many salons are now offering pre-wedding grooming packages for men along with the wedding day makeup.
Makeup for men has to be done very carefully as it should look natural and not over-the-top. The pre-wedding groom packages take care of the skin problems and hydration levels. On the D day, a thorough clean-up is given and then a good moisturizer is applied. If the groom is has a beard, it is properly trimmed. The makeup starts with the application of concealer to hide the acne marks, dark circles under the eyes and other spots. A foundation matching the skin tone of the groom is then applied and blended well for a flawless look. Foundation is selected depending upon the skin type of the groom and also the weather. While oily skin requires powder or water-based foundation, for men with drier skin, oil0based moisturizers are used. Next, contouring and highlighting are done to highlight the facial features like the cheekbones and chin. A little highlighter can also be applied to the lower portion of the eyebrows to make the eyes stand out. Kajal or eyeliner is applied as a very thin line so that a natural look is created while enhancing the beauty of the eyes. This makes the face more photogenic. A subtly tinted lip balm moisturizes the lips and adds a little colour. Finally, the makeup is sealed off with a good finishing spray.

The floral shirt: Floral shirts are easier floral elements to style for men. Choose a darker colour if going for a vacation and wear it with chino shorts. Opt for subtle colours and combine the shirt with basic black trousers for a semi-formal look. Throw over a linen jacket or denim jacket to tone down the effect.
The tie: A smart way to incorporate floral print in your outfit is using a floral tie. A lavender shirt and blue suit with deep purple and blue floral printed tie will be a smart outfit for creative meetings and functions. You can’t also go wrong with a floral tie at a wedding.

Floral trousers: You can rock the floral print trousers when going out with friends. Usually, such floral print trousers are made out of very comfortable material and they make a huge fashion statement with ease.

How to select the perfect suit for yourself

July 28, 2018

Suits are unarguably the most stylish outfit for men and make them look dashing and handsome. The market offers endless choices when it comes to formal suits. Selecting a perfect suit is made easy with the following tips:

The right fit: Suits mostly come in three types of fits. The first one is the slim fit that is shorter than regular suits and hugs the contours of the body. The second one is the modern fit that sits slightly loose on the body, thus offering you a flattering silhouette. Then there is the classic fit that has wide shoulders and extra room in the back and in the chest. Such suits reach below the waist and cover your buttocks. Choose the right fit for your body type to look your best. Slim fitted suits work well for thin men with lean frames. Classic fit is ideal for men with full or average built. Modern fit is good for medium body types.
The type of suit: Single breasted suits with slim and high panels work well for short men. For tall men, three- button, single-breasted suits are a good option. For heavier men, two button suits are appropriate and they create a longer torso. Two button suits are the most flattering for most body types. Choose the fabric of the suit according to the season in which it has to be worn.
The right colour: Suits are available in a variety of colours. Most business suits are either in black, navy or grey. For less formal occasions, colours like brown, red or white may be chosen. In general, men with lighter skin tones look good in dark-coloured suits and those with darker skin look good in lighter shades.
Detailing: Pay attention to lapels and vents while buying a suit. Peaked and notched lapels are most common types. A single-breasted suit with peaked lapels looks more formal. As for vents, suits may be vent-less, center or double vented. Those with athletic build should go for vent-less suits. Double vented suits are more suited to heavily built men.

Clothing pieces like tailored patterned blazers, vertical stripes, and jackets with structures shoulders would look great on them. They should choose styles that draw attention to their upper body like crew neck tees with colour panels, shirts with panels or detailing across the chest. Avoid skinny fits in jeans and trousers and polo neck t-shirts.
Inverted triangle body type: For those having wider shoulders and a slimmer waist, close-fitting clothes work well. Wear horizontal stripes, especially from chest down, slim fit shirts, polo shirts, V neck T-shirts, and straight leg trousers and jeans. Slim fit jackets will also accentuate your appearance.

Such men should ditch busy prints for solid colours. They should opt for trousers instead of jeans. Tailored shirts and dark, single-breasted jackets should be their pick.
