Trendy Teen Guys Heralding The New Year - 2010
Who says Teen Guys and Fashion don't go hand-in-hand? Gone are the days when a simple pair of trousers and a plain shirt or T-shirt in was the only item available on sale for daily wear. We are fast moving into an age when young men are confounded by fashion choices now on offer.
Fashion tips for young boys are very basic. They don't need to be fettered in their movements and yet look good. Clothes that fit well should be the thumb rule. At the same time, certain styles need to be developed to suit them individually.
Read on for guidelines for the trendy young men at the turn of the New Year:

Guys - never ever underestimate the power of clothes that are a perfect fit. They look good but feel good too. Baggy pants that sit below the hips with boxers peeping out are a strict no-no.
Jeans for everyday wear, a pair of formal black trousers and khakis for informal to semi-formal affairs are a must-have. For a complete wardrobe, a tailor-made suit in dark blue or grey shades is imperative.
A wide variety of styles in T- shirts with motifs in front looks great on guys. Feminine colours are also considered in and appear cool and interesting. Colours in tees ranging from white, deep pink, purple, red and black worn with blue jeans or khaki shorts are in favour. T-shirts with sayings make a great conversation starter. Polo's look neat.
A few button down full sleeve shirts go with any type of pants - jeans to black trousers and lend a smartly casual look.
A pair of flip-flops or leather straps is appropriate for summer months. For a change a classic pair of Converse will do even for an unconventional crowd.
Black shoes - brogue if possible is a universal must-have. Sneakers should be kept looking new by wiping with a damp cloth at day-end.
Being well groomed at all times and places goes without saying.
Accessories ranging from belts, watches, simple chains, cuff links, a pair of great sunglasses to a retro hat or a leather jacket and a manly messenger bag to carry all these items will help in experimenting with styles.
In what appears to be a foray into becoming style icons, guys are trying out different types of clothing until a personal style is discovered. What makes one feel happy and confident should be the guiding factor by all means. More importantly, one must understand what is the look one wants to convey - going sleek and elegant, prep chic, surfer, rocker or casually bohemian.
Doing a little research will go a long way in acquiring a wardrobe that becomes a neighbour's envy but the owner's pride. Look for a friend to help find clothes that accentuate your style and fit your budget too.
In order to look cool one need not wear designer from top to bottom. A fusion of the traditional and futuristic works well. Combining simple inexpensive pieces with elaborate wow pieces makes the ensemble look like a million bucks for less.
