TaurusTerp Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 I know...but the actual point to getting the concierge is to get someone knowledgeable with you shopping if you are clueless. Doesn't matter if it's a man, woman, straight, or gay. Whenever I help friends out, I simply think about what I think would flatter them and yet make them feel comfortable in their own skin. I take what they like to wear now and simply give it a boost. So if they like jeans, then I push them to try boot cut or skinny even. If they like polos, then I'd at least try to see if they'll wear a jacket or something to accessorize, or try something with some artsy print/design on it. If they like sneakers, then I'll show them things other than the normal gym shoes that are sneakers. Same thing with hair and accessories. I just share what I feel and they're open to accept it or reject it. Lord knows my buddies' girlfriends have thanked me. You should think about the hiring process, especially at a place like Macy's...99% of the time they just hired a guy off the street and gave him minimal training. Blind leading the blind. A professional menswear guy would be more helpful, but you're only going to find them at upscale departments stores - bloomingdales, saks, nieman marcus.
TaurusTerp Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Well, I scored with it. Maybe despite it, maybe because of it. Who cares. Probably because of your sparkling personality and enormous penis, bro. No homo?
Star Gazer Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Besides everything else that's been said (particularly regarding clothing style and fit), a man with a confident WALK is incredibly sexy. Unfortunately, when describing it with words it sounds a little douche-y: chin slightly up, shoulders slightly back, confident steps... I actually just watched a short, average looking guy walk across a parking lot with this walk and he became instantly more attractive...
Eeyore79 Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 I was asked on a date by a guy who I wasn't really attracted to; he was overweight, a bit hairy, and badly dressed. I declined, but as he was a friend of a friend I still saw him around occasionally. Time passed, and I discovered he was a really nice guy: funny, decent, sweet, kind, etc. I found he was also very intelligent and educated, and had a decent job; he was really easy to talk to and we had some deep conversations. I learned that he was talented and well respected and liked among his friends. This still wouldn't have been enough if he hadn't decided to smarten himself up; he went out and bought some new and fashionable clothes which fitted well, he started shaving off his untidy stubble so he looked more presentable, and suddenly I found myself thinking he was quite cute. To cut a long story short, I asked him out, despite having turned him down previously! I think him smartening himself up is what made the biggest difference; he was still overweight and hairy, still had the same face and body as before, but I perceived him differently because he projected a different image through how he dressed. His new smart image allowed me to appreciate all his other good qualities, because I started viewing him as an attractive man who I might want to date, rather than as a man who was sweet but not my type.
redmelon Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Are these tips for men or women? For men. Are you getting hung up on lip balm? I mean lip balm that is like chapstick...no color or scent. Like Burt's Bees or something...
threebyfate Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 For men. Are you getting hung up on lip balm? I mean lip balm that is like chapstick...no color or scent. Like Burt's Bees or something...Not hung up on anything but lip balm, lotion for elbows and heels and concern about tucking in shirts, belts and colour of socks? Even the amount of gel when it comes to hairstyle, if the guy likes a few spikes. I dunno but that's a whole lotta' femininity to expect from a guy.

I just hate dry rough skin, I guess...as for it all being overly feminine, I think it shows like you care and have some style, but I am not saying I only dig hipsters or metros, either.

That's just good posture...like walking with a stick up your ass...

Why do you associate those things with femininity...? That's why I refer to well-dressed men when it comes to men's fashion, grooming, and style.
Gattica Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 Be confident, not cocky... Agree. There are so many men that I work with that do not know the difference between the 2 and it is a real turn off.

That's why I refer to well-dressed men when it comes to men's fashion, grooming, and style.They're the girly interpretation of what makes a man more attractive. "Deal-breaker, not dating that man. He has flaky elbows and heels." Right.
redmelon Posted October 9, 2010 Posted October 9, 2010 I wasn't talking about dealbreakers, I was stating Practical Ways Men Can Be More Attractive. I think using lotion is practical.
