2017 has come to an end. This means its time to make new resolutions for 2018. With all that gym time, you may have missed some opportunities to really up your style game. And that’s a shame since doing so can help show off that rock-hard physique. So here is a list of mens style and grooming resolutions for the 2018, which will help you become a better dressed person. No fad trends. Just the tips you need to make 2018 the year of no more sartorial shortcomings.
Care more for your face
Most regular soap bars and shower gels stripe your skin of important oils and leaves your face flaky, feeling like sandpaper and thats never a good look. Instead, throw the soap bar away and use a large pea-size amount of foaming face wash or mild cleansing gel to remove dirt from your face while still retaining moisture and do this twice a day before finishing off with the right moisturizer. Nevertheless, moisturizing is not just for women. Its also crucial for men. Moisturizing your face is essential to keep it looking and feeling fresh and healthy.
Stock Check Your Basics
All good stores require a regular stock check, and your wardrobe is no exception. Replenish you shelves with the essential wardrobe basics you wear the most. Plain tees, dark jeans, grey sweatshirts, Oxford shirts and every other essential item of your menswear diet.
These pieces get the most wear, and are subject to the most tear. One yellowish T-shirt will push even the finest look past its sell-by date, so it makes perfect sense to refill the pantry as the year begins. It won’t cost you a fortune, either.
Try A New Fit
Changing fit lets you change gears without throwing out your whole wardrobe. And, love them or hate them, wider legged trousers are becoming increasingly popular, refusing to budge from the trend wheel.
If baggy trousers sound like madness to you, consider a straight leg, or shapes that’ll play with your silhouette up top without making you look like a sack of potatoes. It’s all about knowing your body shape, what suits it, and the spots in your wardrobe that can accommodate some experimentation.
Consider A Proper Watch Upgrade
We’ve long argued that Switzerland isn’t the best and end all of luxury watches. Its not a bad place to start though, and you dont always need a Swiss banker’s pay packet to get your hands on something mechanical and historic. For a price tag just shy of the $500 mark, you can upgrade your wrist with a notable ticker from the likes of Hamilton, Christopher Ward or Tissot all Swiss made, and all handsome in their own right. If you want to look further, try Junghans from Germany or Seiko from Japan.
