HOW TO WEAR A SUIT POCKET HANDKERCHIEF

 

Wearing a handkerchief used to be a thing of the past and you only saw older business men wearing them. Now times have changed and it is quite fashionable these days for any guy to wear a colourfull hanky in his pocket.
For those men who are raising an eyebrow, it is definitely not considered a femenine touch at all.
Think of it as elegant and tasteful.

Below are just a few examples of how to fold a hanky.

 

 

This folding method, I would wear with a more casual suit. Add a touch of colour to a linen, loose suit by adding this casual fold.

 

Where a the hem of your pants should sit.

I often see and wonder whether men know how to dress accordingly, espacially when it comes to the lengths of pants/ trousers.
Let me start off by saying that it depends on whether it is casual, formal or high fashion items.
The width of the bottom lenght of the pants/trouser is also very important.

Take for instance a wide trouser leg ( like in the 70's), that sits as high as your ankle. That will just look ridiculous, unless it's high fashion with a statement....and the right shoes/boots!

So, the wider the bottom of your pants, the longer you wear it, never allowing the hem to sweep the floor!

The narrower the bottom of your pants, the higher you can go. No rule in how high, but depending on the style and/or if it's a high fashion item.

The rule for formal trousers:
This applies to straight legs in trousers.
The hem should be about 1 - 2cm above the heel of your shoes.
The front of the leg will make a small break, which means it will have a slight fold.
The modern formal trouser ( like in the 60's), has got a tighter leg and  tapered at the bottom, which means that the hem will sit higher at the back of the heel of your shoes.
The break in front of your trouser will be more, but that is how it should sit.  There should be one or two folds, but that's it! The right shoe should be worn with these pants.

More casual or fashionable pants can have slightly more folds.......

Concealors

Have you ever had a problem with your cream concealor in winter?
They normally tend to go hard and are not very user friendly.
All you have to do is blow heat from a hairdryer over the product for just a few seconds, taking care not to melt the cream. It still needs to be solid, but soft enough to be applied.
Use your concealor brush to lightly mix and it's ready to use.
