KNOW YOUR SUIT AND ROCK IT CORRECTLY

THERE ARE 5 GREAT TIPS TO WEAR YOUR SUIT PERFECTLY, AND YES YOU CAN ONLY GET THE TIPS HERE MIGHT THINK OF LOL.

TIP #1- THE CUFFS
OK WHEN YOU THINK OF CUFFS YOU MIGHT THINK OF BUTTON-UPS WITH CUFF LINKS LIKE YOU SEEN ON JAY-Z IN A MUSIC VIDEO BACK IN THE DAY WELL THOSE DAYS ARE OVER. BACK TO THE CLASSIC MY PEOPLES.
THERE SHOULD BE A 1/4-INCH OF SHIRT CUFF SHOWING BENEATH YOUR JACKET SLEEVES.

TIP #2- ALWAYS GO TO THE TAILOR
EVEN THE BEST SUITS NEED ALTERING, TRY YOUR SUIT ON AT THE TAILOR, SO YOUR SUIT CAN BE DEALT WITH ON THE SPOT.

TIP #3- SOCKS
YOU SHOULD GET THE SHIT SMACK OUT OF YOU IF YOU EVER WEAR WHITE TUBE SOCKS WITH A SUIT. THE SOCKS SHOULD MATCH YOUR SUIT BEFORE THE SHOES, NOT VICE VERSA. I PREFER ARGYLE PRINTS, YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG WITH IT.

TIP#4- BUTTONS
LEAVE THE TOP AND BOTTOM BUTTONS UNDONE ON A THREE-BUTTON SUIT, AND THE BOTTOM UNDONE ON A TWO BUTTONED SUIT.

TIP# 5- ONE BUTTONED SUITS
HIGH ON STYLE BUT NOT FOR EVERY PERSON. TRY TO KEEP THIS SUIT AS CHOICE 2 OR 3

OF COURSE YOU KNOW I GOT MORE IN THE FUTURE CHICAGO STAND UP! HOLLABLACK

FORGET LOUIS VUITTON. GOYARD IS THAT SH*T

................ NO DISRESPECT TO LOUIS VUITTON, I EVEN PRAISE THE BRAND FOR IT'S CLASSIC PRODUCTS AND LONGEVITY, BUT THERE IS A BRAND FROM PARIS WHO HAS BEEN THERE LONGER THAN LOUIS. THE NAME IS GOYARD, WHY AM I JUST NOW HEARING ABOUT THIS? LET ME GIVE YOU A BRIEF HISTORY.

Goyard is known for its hard-sided trunks, and small accessories. All pieces are covered in a signature hand-painted patented Chevron canvas made of cotton, linen, and hemp and displayed in various colors. The chevron canvas was created in 1892, traditionally produced in black and red. Goyard is renowned for monogramming the durable, lightweight canvas with the initials of their customers upon request. To this day, Goyard produces special orders and bespoke pieces, made to order in Carcassonne, France. Goyard reached new heights of popularity and recognition when Barneys New York began carrying the line in the early 2000s.

KNOW YOUR TIE KNOTS

Alright my peoples lesson #1, a real man should knows his tie knots and how to tie them. There are 5 most common tie knots know to Society are the four-in-hand, windsor knot, half windsor knot, and the pratt knot. Now Im going to explain what each knot means.

The Four in Hand Knot makes for a narrow, more discreet and slightly asymmetrical tie knot. It is best suited for a standard button-down dress shirt and works best with wide ties made from heavy fabrics.
While this tie knot can be worn by anyone, it looks especially well on men with shorter necks as the knot's rather narrow and elongated form stretches the perceived height of the neck a tiny bit.

The Windsor Knot is a thick, wide and triangular tie knot that projects confidence. It would therefore be your knot of choice for presentations, job interviews, courtroom appearances etc. It is best suited for spread collar shirts and it's actually quite easy to do.
While just about everyone can use this tie knot to tie his tie, it looks especially well on men with longer necks as its wide form shortens the perceived height of the neck a little bit.

The Half Windsor Knot, a modest version of the Windsor Knot, is a symmetrical and triangular tie knot that you can use with any dress shirt. It works best with somewhat wider ties made from light to medium fabrics.

The Pratt Knot - also known as the Shelby Knot - is tidy and fairly wide, yet not as wide as the Windsor Knot. It is well suited for any dress shirt and somewhat wider ties made from light to medium fabrics.


It is very easy to tie each tie knot, but there are a lot more tie knots we could explore later so stay connected. Hollablack

oh yea check your favorite search engines for images on hoow to tie your neck ties. recommended for people who learn vissually
