Body type: tall and skinny

So this is for all you tall and skinny guys out there that think that wearing an oversized T-shirt will make you look wider. The key is knowing what works with your body type and having the clothes tailored to your size.

It is really important to make sure your shirt are not too big and not too tight. stay away from V-neck T-shirts and when it comes to dress shirts choose the ones with a spread collar. You can also enjoy the optical illusion created by horizontal stripes that will make you look wider.

T-shirt

Do not be tempted by trying the skinny jeans trend, they will only accentuate your slim legs. instead wear straight cut trousers.

Jeans

A great little trick is wearing structured jackets with a little built in shoulder pads, They will make you look wider. This body type is one of the few that can get away with wearing double breasted coats and chunky knits.

Body type: Big

being a big guy doesn't mean you can look sloppy!. You can look a stylish as anyone.

The key is to take the time to find the clothes that fit you properly.

Wearing a shirt over a cool t-shirt will create horizontal line that will slim your torso and camouflage your belly. Avoid busy prints and vertical strips that will only make you look bigger.

Wear straight cut pants instead of baggy ones. Avoid tight belts and do not tuck your shirt in your pants!

You can go crazy in the shoes department just make sure the shoes look proportional to your body (not to narrow and not too wide).

vans

Body type: short and skinny

Boys (and girls) come in all shapes and sizes and we should all learn to dress accordingly.
If you have a small body type, you have often a hard time finding clothes to suite you. In this post I will show you how to look good even if you look like a hobbit.

Jackets are a good way to add some volume to your shoulder area.

Pay attention to the length of the jacket, you don't want it to be to long and over sized or it will make you look even smaller.

Trousers: pick the slimmer kind of trousers and tailor the length.

Do not wear baggy pants, again, it would swallow you up. avoid too much break - it will make you look sloppy and shorter than you are.

A little trick you can use especially in the winter are boots. You can often find thick sole boots at the stores when it's getting colder, these will give you a little extra height without wearing man heels.

Hoodie - conceal your secret identity or just get comfy

I must admit that when it comes to hoodies, I think they are the best when you hang out with your friends at home or at your favorite pub. Hoodies are comfy, soft and casual. And who am I to argue with Gandalf, Green Arrow and Luke Skywalker anyway :)

Here are some of the coolest hoodies out there!

Meeting her parents

Are you nervous? you should be!
Meeting her parents is a big step and you want to show them that you deserve their little girl. Now is not the time to try out your cool zombie apocalypse T- shirt. In  this case you need to pull off a clean and neutral look to impress them.

Dinner at her parents' place

A light v - neck sweater with dark colored trousers are just the nice and minimalist look you need.

Dinner at a restaurant

Get a formal but yet approachable look with a light blue colored shirt (ironed!) and dark grey trousers.

Winter is coming

Well, winter is coming and you better be prepared!
It's getting a little chilly outside. I know you are used to walk around in your comfy hoodie all winter but from now on you're gonna leave it at home and upgrade your outerwear. A jacket or a coat are essential pieces for your wardrobes in the winter.

Light jacket

When it's getting colder you can really use a jacket to wear over your shirt outside.

Leather jacket

Leather jackets are awesome. They have a major coolness factor as long as you make sure you can pull it off!. Although the biker jacket style is a classic, the china collar style is more flattering to a variety of body types.

Down Jacket

When it's really really cold, you have no option but to get yourself a down jacket. try to avoid at all cost the michelin man look.

Top coat

 It's the classic option for a more dressier look. You can choose the minimalistic look or take a risk with the military-influenced double breasted coat.

What to wear on a date

Ok, so you met a cute girl. You exchange words for a few weeks now at the library, over the cubicle or in the game chat and already had the courage and asked her out. You may have a great armor in the game but you just can't wear it on a date.
I picked three outfits for you according to the location of your date.

Restaurant

A plain colored shirt and matching pair of trousers will always work.

shirt - bershka, trousers - zara, shoes - vans

Movie

Going to the movies is less formal and more casual, so you can wear jeans and a cool T-shirt.

Gray denim is an excellent alternative to the usual denim and a colorful T-shirt will show your girl a more playful side of you.

five basic items to have in your closet

Dear geeks ,my first post, , is dedicated to those of you who are ready to make a change in the closet but do not know where to start. The first step in your new wardrobe is to find these five basic items that I'm going to show you here.

T-shirt

You can really go wild here. You should always have some colorful T-shirts in your closet and of course we geeks love our T-shirts, funny, cool and with prints related to our interests.

Plasma

Jeans

Finding a good denim is a difficult task. Make sure that you have a pair of dark colored denim, without any tricks and unnecessary low-rise.

Lee Cooper

Sneakers

I would start with black All-star Converse shoes or black Vans shoes that will work and fit with everything. If you have more guts than the sky is the limit and you can find all kinds of crazy shoes in many stores.

Converse

Jacket

I highly recommend having a dark colored blazer. Wear over a printed T-shirt, you can create an urban look and with a buttoned shirt, you will be looking more presentable.

Pull and Bear

Shirt

A blue buttoned shirt is good on more formal events or dates.
