Tie Size matters
Tie - a necessary element of the wardrobe of business men. With the changing not only the colors, styles, and sizes but the passage of time. Thus, in the 1970s. wear ties width of 13 cm. Now in vogue 7-9 cm wide ties and narrower.
But at all times there is a general rule that determines the optimal width of the tie, based on the individual characteristics of the figure.
The width of the tie should match the lapels of his jacket.
The narrower the shoulders, the narrower lapels. Consequently, the tie must also be rather narrow. The wider the shoulders, the more the lapels and the "large-scale" need a tie.
If, looking in the closet, you see that your ties do not meet this rule, watch the following video. It will teach you how to make narrow from a wide tie.
IronMan
Men hate to iron, and come up with ways to simplify this process. At least the first electric iron patented American Henry Seeley (Henry Seely) in 1882 godu; and after nearly 60 years Schröer Edward (Edward Schreyer) invented the steam iron.
Laziness is progressing, and now on the internet you can find this advice.
Rumpled shirt? Throw it in the dryer with an ice cube.
There are also more radical hacks: hang the shirt on a hanger and a spray from a spray solution of vinegar, water and fabric softener. However, it is likely that the smell of vinegar will not relieve any perfume.
Natural "cosmetics" for footwear ...
Italian hygienist Paolo Mantegazza said: "Be sincere and honest - not to show your friends your mud boots." On the market a lot of shoe care products - cream, spray, talcum powder; for protection against moisture, cleaning, etc.
But if the hand is not a single "ready" solutions, you can use olive oil. It cleans the leather footwear and gives it shine.
Another tip: if the new leather shoes are too rough, lubricate hand cream. They become softer and will wear them more pleasant.
freeze smells
Then smelling shoes, plastic bag and freezer. Three unrelated things? Far from it! If you put smelly sneakers in a sealed bag and send in the freezer overnight, in the morning you get shoes, fragrant frosty freshness.
New life of old sneakers
Old, dirty, but strong, sneakers can be worn not for another season. To do this, they need to:
- thoroughly clean toothbrush and powder;
- paint using paint on fabric;
- dry.
Fly
Remember the anecdote: if you are looking woman and smiling, before approached to get acquainted, make sure you fly zipped? Alas, from the "naughty" zipper on jeans or pants no one is immune.
But there is a solution. Take a ring of keys, it is threaded into the slider and fix on the button.
Other ways to cope with the problem by lightning, we have described here.
The new hole instead of a new belt
Belt - not less important male accessory. Many men are careful in his choice of paying attention not only the color and style, but also the quality and brand.
Agree, it is a pity to throw away a good leather belt, if corrected, or, on the contrary, lost. Especially because you can make it fit on the figure using a standard hole punch. How to do it, show the man in the next video.
The rule of three buttons
Layfhaker already told (And showed) how many nuances in the selection of a business suit in size. In particular, the position of the buttons may indicate that the jacket is too small or, conversely, is too large.
In addition, there is the so-called rule of three buttons.
Outer jacket button may be fastened - sometimes. Medium - always. Lower - than ever.
And remember, if you wear a shirt without a jacket, then unbutton her more than two buttons (even in hot weather) is not necessary. Otherwise it will look something like this.
It is better for a man, no!
Shaving the beard is possible not only, but also pellets in the old, but favorite sweater. Do not believe me? See for yourself.
Socks
"Missing" sock - Men's Beach. That does not find, you will find, but different.
Hack "the system" can be. Just buy always wear the same brand and color. Then in a hurry you can wear any socks caught the eye without fear that you come to work in different.
Rolling up his sleeves
Office dress code does not approve of the sleeve "three-quarters" but sometimes, for example, to replace the "later" wheel, you need to roll up our sleeves.
To do it right:
- Wrap the sleeve just above the elbow.
- Buttoned at the cuff.
- Wrap the rest of the sleeve.
So the hand will not slip and interfere.
