Getting the Right Finishing Touches for Your Look

The suit makes the man, but it’s the details that make him a gentleman.

And whatever your look and style, there are some beautiful accessories out there that can add a touch of class to an outfit, giving you that final bit of polish.

It is fair to say, that often the accessories are the icing on the cake, with many men spending much more on one accessory than their entire outfit or even wardrobe. That’s why having attention to detail means so much, and that’s why you should never forget those extra accessories. Here are a few ways that you can add shine to your aesthetic.

WATCHES

Timepieces have long been the true measure of a man’s aesthetic. The watch that he chooses can really finish a look off with immaculate style and finesse. If you want the best, you may want to consider buying second-hand. If you are savvy, you may be able to find some exceptional pieces in excellent condition for a fraction of their original price. You may want to look at used Hublot watches.

A more formal occasion may call for a pocket watch. This will add a touch of class to your entire outfit. Think about getting a delicate chain as this will create a more refined look. If you are wearing a waistcoat, a pocket watch is a fine choice of accessory to complete the look.

TIES

A well-made tie is a change to add some character to your look. Think about the types of colors that match your skin, eyes, and hair. You will want a strong look that stands out on you. Think about wearing bold patterns and bright colors. Your tie is a great chance to demonstrate your personality.

If you work in an office, you should try to maintain a strong variety in your tie rack. Think about creating a diverse palette that you can rotate, providing you with a new look each and every day.
