10 Items EVERY Guy Needs MORE Of To Be Successful [0:00:00]
Let’s start this off with watches, and it starts innocently enough in that you grab
a watch that’s functional and you wear it, you’re like, hey, this thing looks good.
So, you decided to bring in some other watches, so that you can wear it in a more dressy situation,
you’re bringing in some fashion watches.
Again, you like the look of them, you’re starting to get compliments, so you go out
there and you grab a couple more because, hey, when you’re working out, you want a
watch that’s very functional.
And then, all of a sudden you start to bring in different styles, different looks.
And then, you know you’ve gone off the deep end when you start buying the same watch just
in different colors and styles.
And then, you reach the point that your family is worried because you’re spending as much
on watches as you did on the down payment on your house.
Now, that first example maybe a bit extreme, but the point is valid.
There are items in your wardrobe you want to own multiples of, a wide variety of to
level up your style.
[Music] Next up, we’ve got fragrances and first
off, if you don’t have a signature scent something that you’re defaulting to as your
go-to spray, you should look at having one because people pick up and they remember smells.
Now, the easiest way to do this is to start to wear one, find one that works for you,
you have the ability to choose.
But, if you’ve already got one that you default to all the time, then look to grab
others especially for the seasons.
So, for the winter you want a warmer heavier fragrance, one that’s going to stick around.
For spring, maybe you want a lighter fragrance, something that has florals in it.
For summer, again, light, fresh, but maybe with a bit more staying power.
For fall, maybe something spicy, something strong, maybe something with vanilla.
Now, the next two items I think a man should own a wide variety of are glasses and sunglasses.
So, here’s the thing, most guys only own one pair of glasses.
Now, imagine if you were to change this up, all of a sudden your glasses become an accessory.
They become something you can change up something that are functional, but at the same time
add style to your look.
And there’s tons of options out there, you can go with bright, you can go with muted,
you can go with something that’s just a slight variation from what you’re already
wearing.
And the same logic applies to sunglasses.
So many guys default to the style they’ve always worn versus exploring something new.
Now, you may be wondering all the glasses in today’s video, where did they come from,
gentlemen, GlassesUSA.com, the sponsor of today’s video.
I’ve worked with them for years and there are two reasons why I absolutely love this
company.
First up, variety.
If you walk in your doctor’s office, you look around, he’s maybe got a hundred options
for you if you’re lucky.
You go into Glasses USA, you have four thousand options.
So, let’s say you like the look of these glasses, but you know what?
I want the lenses to be a little bit smaller.
Well, boom, all of a sudden, you’re able to find that.
And that’s what I love about Glasses USA.
And when it comes to finding a better price, good luck on that.
Guys, prescription lenses plus frames starting at $30.
And, one of my favorite tools over GlassesUSA.com, the virtual mirror.
Guys, you can try on any pair of frames and see what they look like by simply uploading
your photo.
And, guys, it’s a risk-free shopping experience.
Free shipping, free returns, 100% money back guarantee, and a 365-day product warranty.
And, again, gentlemen, look at the selection, they’ve got designer brands like Ray-Ban,
Oakley, Armani, Gucci, and they’ve got their in-house brands, Muse and Amelia E. Gentlemen,
they got sport glasses, sunglasses, safety glasses, kid glasses, and more.
Guys, by cutting out the middlemen, GlassesUSA.com is able to offer you 70% off retail prices.
I’m linking to them down in the description with the best discount code you’re going
to find out there.
Use it or lose it, guys.
It’s a great deal.
Great glasses.
Go check them out.
The next item on my list, dress shoes.
And if your default is a black Oxford Balmoral, you want to own two of these.
Why?
Because you want to rotate, you want to give them a day to breathe.
When you wear shoes all day especially high quality leather shoes, they’re going to
absorb sweat, they’re going to absorb moisture, and they need time to breathe to basically
let out that moisture.
So, you know you can change it up maybe bring in another color, but I would recommend, again,
if you’ve got a default workhorse shoe, own two of them, they’re going to – it’s
not going to just double the length, it’s going to triple the length that the upper
is going to last.
Next up, gents, we’ve got white sneakers.
And, notice, I said white sneakers.
You want them to be clean and to look good, so have two pairs.
Why?
Because when you want to put that outfit together, you know these are the shoes that you’re
going to go to and all of a sudden you look at those shoes and they’re just looking
more worn that you remember, you want to have another pair that you can go to.
In addition, if this is your go-to style your go-to sneaker, you want to make sure that
you’re like similar to the dress shoe, you’ve got some shoes in rotation, so that they’re
able to breathe and that they’re going to last longer.
Next up, gents, we’ve got V-neck sweaters.
My default is gray.
I love this, it works pretty much with anything, then I start to bring in some color.
I really do like a blue like this.
It’s going to be a little harder to match than the gray, but still going to work with
a number of items in my wardrobe.
Then, I bring in something with a bit of color.
If I were to bring in another, I would actually bring in another gray.
Don’t be afraid to get the same thing again and again similar to the next item, this navy
blue shirt.
Now, you guys if you’ve watched my videos you know this is one of my go-to items, but
I find that a casual button down in a color that works for you just you should go with.
For me, navy, dark blue, even medium blues, I know that this works with my tones, it works
with all of my jackets, it’s going to fit into my interchangeable wardrobe and I’m
going to get a lot of miles out of this particular shirt.
[0:05:08] Now, let’s talk about the white dress shirt.
So, you want to have at least five in your wardrobe.
Some of you guys may think that’s too much, but here’s the thing is you’re going to
change up the style and you always want a crisp white shirt.
This is something that you can dress up, you can dress it down.
So, starting off this one, very classic, it’s made from a poplin material.
Nothing really fancy about it and that’s why it’s a classic.
Then you get another one made from a twill fabric.
So, twill is going to be a little bit heavier, a little bit denser, this one is going to
be great during the winter, then you bring in one that looks just like the other one
except guess what?
French cuffs, going to be a level, just a level higher when it comes to formality.
Then, you bring in this one, have a little bit of fun, it’s got a broadcloth material,
but notice the contrast color in there?
Just a little bit of style, a little bit of fun.
And then, I’ve gone into linens.
Guess what?
All of a sudden this is going to be great for the summer, make sure to iron it though.
And then, this one right here, I’ve got the pockets I’ve got the epaulets, a fun
style, but, again, something I can wear during the summer.
And, now, let’s talk jackets specifically lightweight jackets.
What I love about these is that you can layer and they have all the great features of building
up your shoulders.
If it fits you well in the torso, it will slim up your silhouette.
They can make your hands look larger if you actually wear something that is tapered in
on the sleeves.
So, you want to learn more about jackets?
Guys, check out this video right here.
I’ve got twenty lightweight jackets that I recommend I go into great detail on.
I’m going to talk about sports jackets and a lot more than just that.
I cover it in this video which I will link to down in the description.
