That’s great your true calling come through.
If there is one piece of advice I could give for rebuilding a wardrobe, it would be having a plan. I lost about 120 lbs, had no clothes that fit, and at the same time in my career, I took a 36 y/o man as far as I could go wearing jeans and band t's. I got my bonus and decided I was going to rebuild my entire wardrobe. The first thing I did was start watching RMRS on KZread to actually learn what style is. I also can't say enough about the RMRS face book community for learning about style and what works for you. Then I decided my budget. And I decided on $2,500. Once I had a plan, and a budget, I could watch the items I wanted for price and take advantage of sales. In the long run, $2,500 might seem like a lot, but in the 2 years sense I started with that, I've about doubled my annual salary and have moved up 2 positions at work. It obviously wasn't all the clothes that did it, but I had a newfound sense of confidence in myself that has taken me pretty far. The "halo effect" is also very real as I find people generally give me more respect when I look like a boss. All in all, that $2,500 was the best investment in myself I ever made. Custom fitted Navy 3 piece suit (Mens Warehouse$500) Custom fitted Gray 3 piece suit (Men's Warehouse $500) Dark blue 501's (Levi's $50) Black 501's (Levi's $50) 4 custom fitted dress shirts (Light blue, White, White french cuff, Black) (Mens Warehouse $60 each/$240) 2 pairs of chino's (tan and white) ($50 each) Anson belt 3 pack (Brown, Black, Light brown) (silver and gold buckle) ($100) Thursday boots Chukka (black) ($150) Thursday boots Captain (brown) ($200) Thursday boots Monk double monk strap (Brown) $175 Polo's (Black, Gray, Green) ($50 each) Then I put the remaining $250+ into my accessories (never forget the accessories) I've sense added a few pieces, but the combos I've been able to pull from this is like endless.

I just want to look good. I'm Catholic and go to mass every Sunday, and I have always worn a suit. A few things I've noticed is that I feel better, I act better, and people treat me differently. I get compliments often when I go out into public spaces while wearing one of my two suits. Also, people don't just see me, I do not just represent myself. When they see me I do represent myself, but I also represent my family and my faith, my church. So I want to represent well.
I just started on a complete rebuild. After a decade that contained divorce and bankruptcy, it was time to get myself and my life on a better track. I started by taking off 180 pounds for starters... and man, do I need clothes! I'm going a piece at a time, but am excited for the possibilities. This video has some great teaching. Thanks, Antonio!

Oh man, veterans and people still in the military definitely struggle with dressing appropriately for their age, while I was out on liberty in the middle east I had on a pair of chinos and a polo, and I was over dressed compared to my coworkers wearing T shirts and gym shorts. We definitely need to do better with our appearance.
I’ve just turned 48. I’ve always taken care of my skin and exercised so looked younger than my years. Over the last year or so, looking in the mirror I can see both the younger me and the future older me coming through in my reflection and I like what I’m seeing. I’m changing up my look from more youthful to more mature but still on trend. I can take the time patiently but looking forward to the ageing me. I want the future me to be and look vital, relevant and on trend. Great videos; please keep them coming! Love from Australia. 👍🏻
For me, 75% of rebuilding my wardrobe was down to finding a brand that fit me correctly. I have a slimmer build with long torso and arms so I always bought a size larger to make it “fit properly.” Problem is I look like I’m swimming in my clothes. A friend recommended I try tall sizes and lo and behold, Medium Talls fit me perfectly. I narrowed it down to two brands: Banana Republic and Eddie Bauer.. BR for more formal and going-out clothes, EB for lounging around the house, the yard, and running quick errands. It is amazing how much more confidence I have just wearing clothes that I know look and fit better.
I just got out the Marines this year and I have been really trying to up my wardrobe after not buying clothes for years. Your videos have helped me so much and when I apply your tips/knowledge, I have gotten compliments. Civilian side has been difficult , but I feel that Marine confidence walking into interviews when I know I look good. Semper Fi brother!
I'm 26 and finally decided it's time to invest in some good looking clothes and shoes. Learning so much stuff. I didn't expect it. The fitting, the fabrics, the quality, the styles, etc. Most of my clothes and shoes were from syntetic materials. Starting by looking for online deals. And looking at materials and brands.
One of my first jobs out of school back in 2019, my then boss told me something that i learned not to just carry in my career, but as my very personal self. He told me “not to sell myself, short.” That’s part of why I choose to have a wardrobe, and make my “uniform.” To carry myself with character, Which would be seen in my wardrobe. Most of the time, Casual button downs combined with boots, and always jeans or chinos. I felt more mature wearing that, and actually feel good in it. Also reflected my office desk job, in the design and construction field of work. To show a sense of my character, and to not sell myself short in life in any field, that is my why.
I'm on a keto diet right now and my goal is around 160 from 212. Been watching a lot of these videos recently and decided to change my style while I'm at it since I'm going to need new cloths anyway. I'm going with budget cloths while I lose weight because I'm going to be changing sizes again soon. Guides like this really help me zero in on how much of each type of clothing items I need and how to mix and match my sets to maximize my wardrobe for both now and when I reach my goal.
I am starting my second year in college, and I realized that I had been wearing the same clothes and t shirts since I was an early teen. I’ve been watching RMRS for a long time and this video really helped. Because as much as I would love to expand my more formal wardrobe, I have less use for it than I would a more casual wardrobe that I can wear to school. I’m excited to rebuild and renovate my wardrobe and find my style.

Wow, this vid has the best timing. I moved to another city recently, went though renovation and also gained moderate amount of muscle, so i gotta remake a lot of my wardrobe. Definitely can use this advice to complete my wardrobe, cheers
I've been doing these for years. Especially buying articles that were not one hit wonders. You can buy cheap, but you have to know when and where. Rebuilding is a real thing. Had to do it a few times in my life. It can be fun though 🙂
I'm not a man, but I do follow men's style channels like yours and GG; I like GG for their classical inspiration and your more modern tips to balance it a bit better. Men's fashion changes slower than women's since it focuses more on function vs form, while women's fashion tends to have it reversed because _WaMaN mUsT lOoK hAwT_ is still too ingrained in culture, and what is "hawt" changes with the season, and nowadays with the week, literally, it's called microtrends and it's awful. The few women's style channels that I follow (that aren't just outright historybounding lol) focus on the same base things you keep pressing: fit is the most important thing in an outfit, and it pays in many different ways to invest in a few well-fitting pieces than a ton of meh- or ill-fitting trash. Female bodies have a lot more variables to take into account when fitting, which makes custom the best option for most women but out of price range for all but a few, especially with the push to fast-fashion to even have a chance to ride the trends. If more people saw their wardrobes as more than just cloth to cover your modesty in public, but as something that can make you look your best and can help you feel your best less people would hate their bodies and themselves.
I had a combination of reasons five years ago: I became a father and a teacher, and there were some intense developments in my private life. I just didn't want to wear baggy clothes or student-like outfits anymore. In stead, I opted for a classic look. I always liked shirts and blazers, but now I really went for it and even started to wear neck ties. Perhaps it makes me stand out like a dandy, especially since most male teachers simply wear jeans, hoodies and sneakers around here, but I never regretted my choice. (As a side note, it turns out that it inspired some students, and plenty of people apparently like a classic look, but they just don't take the step.)
Started working at dressing better a few years ago. Sharp casual, business casual was more my style but I can also go full business in a suit if needed. I had realized for unknown reason just gaining about 20 lbs I had been buying more jeans, polos, T-shirt for a while and barely noticed. Many those cloths I never really enjoy wearing that much, but was just easy to throw on without much thought to head to the store, date, movies etc. Still, I know I wasn’t wearing the best of my personal style, always thought about it subconsciously and it bothered me as wasn’t my most confident self as well. So I pruned my entire wardrobe. Also started to exercise more regularly too. With less stuff in my wardrobe I had far less to wear but also less to clog my choice of what to wear. I started improving my wardrobe at first by buying the type of dress trousers I liked to wear. I skipped over chinos and went to more Wool type fabric. Wool can come in different weight fabric wise and some the lighter ones are all season wear. But that’s where I started with good drape fabric wool on the lighter side, fit and in a few standard colors like black, navy, gray, tan or slight shade of. Did have a few more black as it was a color I often wore a lot for variety. But once I had a few solid trousers I took them to tailor as they came unheeded in my waist size, I had them hemmed to my fit in the usual Oxford shoes I wore so they fit well in adjustment. Then I had the option to start buying whatever shirt I liked that also fit with the trousers. Already having a versatility of trouser colors mean it was real easy to get shirts to match any shirt type or color. Mostly buttoned up shirts, knit or knit sweater type shirts. Along the way I added more trousers, more shirts etc. Always taking my trousers for tailoring. But slowly like that I was able to improve my wardrobe. In time I added a few suits, including a few blue shades including navy color. Added some sport coats and in navy color. Shirt Jackets are something I liked, recently added a few and still adding more. Shoes improved s lot with real leather shoes and very much what I wear these days. However, it all takes time! Improving your wardrobe takes a lot of effort slowly over time. And just as much you also have to spend time and effort to take care of your cloth and maintain it all.
Started the change with the proverb "Dress for the job you want, not the job you have". Now I have the job, and I didn't need to scramble to meet the new dress code. What I didn't expect was how much changing the wardrobe changed the day to day frame of mind. No clue if it's psychologically the act of making the change or just being in different clothes, but it has been a noticeable change for the better.
I'm rebuilding my wardrobe as part of levelling up my lifestyle and this is where minimizing can be so much more. I want to open my wardrobe and know I'm not skipping past clothes I've never and will likely never wear, I want to look good by simply changing it up. Also yeah big re-composition of my body all my pants even tailored ones was always 32" I'm now around 28". Thank you for creating this video and sharing with the world :)
I'm in the divorce category. 48 year old single dad and I'm realizing I have a lot of old, worn, Ill fitting items clogging up the closet. I'm purging everything from H&M! Thanks Antonio! This was the kick in the butt I needed.
I took part in a weight loss journey while working from home. Baggy shirt and athletic shorts with sandals was my go to. The shorts started falling off. Then I was laid off and realized I had no suitable work clothes. I decided to change and be the best smelling and best dressed person in a crowd. My wardrobe isn't where I want, but it's getting there.
Blue. Something about the color 🔵 always gives me cool energy 👌🏾💙
It might sound crazy but the reason I’m rebuilding my wardrobe is all the reasons you mentioned. My divorce was finalized a few months ago, I dropped 35lbs of fat and gained 15lbs of muscle. I just got out the army and looking to go to school for cybersecurity, and I feel like I’m in a rut cause it feels like I’m essentially starting over from scratch. I love your videos and definitely help change the way I dress and think about dressing like a man so thank you 🙏🏼

Don't look to get married again because love, loyalty, family, and respect, are all now almost extinct. Look what marriage got you. Not worth it. I wish you happiness but we also need to be realistic and adapt. Most of us are much happier without someone that's just in a relationship to have their bills paid and not work.
I got this in my late 30's. For the last couple of years, I have been building my wardrobe. At first, it was uncomfortable wearing a sports coat/button-down shirt/trousers/ nice shoes, and now it's second nature. Don't be afraid to be the nicest dressed person in the room- (Sven), and now I see those in my circle dressing nicer and stepping up their game.
My why, my what, my drive is that I am now 25. There were a lot of constraints put on my ability to socialize as a minor, I became demotivated when it came to doing practically anything. I hit 24 looked at my life and said that I wasn't happy. I bought a gym membership (which I twice weekly), calculated a weekly visit to a mildly popular local restaurant, and searched for a proper men's clothing stylist in my area. There were a lot of duds in that last one, but I have my wardrobe helper now. I understand some of the skills and details I need to look for when grabbing clothes, but I still lean on them twice a year to do a recheck. To other guys that were shut-ins, either willingly or forced, you CAN get out! A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and body. Get out into nature, absorb a better environment. Go to the gym, get a trainer and pop in when you get that urge! Feeling the need to stretch your legs? Run, run around the exterior of your apartment block or duplex! Just do it!
I love this gentleman's videos. I am 37 years old and I am learning how to dress, look casual and modern in my work.
I'm slowly building up my wardrobe from my highschool/college days. I majored in criminal justice and specialized in policing and after graduating I was working blue collar jobs to pay the bills while job hunting, so my wardrobe never required any genuine upgrades until now. I'm 26 and was still effectively wearing the same clothes I was when I was 16 and decided I need a change. I started small with just taking care of myself and looking/smelling better to at least have a better building block. From there I have weeding been out shirts and pants that don't fit and are worn out for ones that are better made and more tasteful. The next step is going to be a few more pairs of shoes beyond my 2 pairs of dress shoes and sneakers to be able to dress up what I have a little bit. Around Christmas I'm going to look to getting some new proper trousers and jackets to have a better fitting and just better looking suit. My money and time are tight but I know I look good in black/gray/reds and a more American or hybrid American style is what suits my build. It is not going to be a one and done process but it's so doable if I stay diligent.
Been working on my style and wardrobe for a few years now. I've found that as I've been upgrading things and I've felt more manly and more confident. I've got a bunch of pieces that I love. Putting them on almost feels like putting on a suit of armor in that it gives a sense of purpose to getting through the day.
two reasons for me! Firstly I've gone from being a tradie, to being in the fitness industry, to now being in car sales. So my wardrobe is mostly jeans, highvis, or gym gear. Secondly, just been through a breakup so now is the perfect time to upgrade my style!
I’m 22, decided to rebuild my wardrobe. I was tired of my oversized and skateboard fashion clothing, it always looked good on me and i had a genuine idea about dressing up, but I reached a point in my life that i figured that i need to be more mature and leave my boys clothes behind and dress like a man.

After returning to college later in life, I changed my career path from being an electrician to a real estate developer. Even though the style in Silicon Valley is relatively loose and open, maintaining a professional image is a must for me.
Going into my last year of college, and I'm debt free. I know this isn't typically the case, but once this year is over, I have several trips to take for my career that I already have planned. Your channel has really helped me, especially with my confidence and being short.
I'm older now, I needed to upgrade my wardrobe , was a stylish dresser when I was younger....returning to my roots !
I've lost 41 kg (90 lb) and your tips really work, but for me, it was a complete wardrobe change and I only kept one suit so I remember what size I used to be. Thank you as always.
my wardrobe is currently (and generally) very casual. I work in retail/warehouse and don't go out much but I would still like to upgrade and get some nicer items that fit better and work for me and my budget, rather than the "safe" and bland options I have now (blacks and greys). thanks for all your style tips!

I just moved back to Illinois from New Mexico. I've changed jobs as well, leaving the medical field to go back to freelance A/V work. I also recently entered my 30's and decided to embrace my balding and shave my head. I have to do a complete overhaul of my wardrobe. While I was in NM I became more of an outdoor person and my clothing was based around practicality in heat while hiking and rock climbing. I've lived in IL for most of my life, and we are less than a month away from 30 degree and less temps. But thankfully I kept all of my jackets and coats. Pants are set for now, though I only have one pair of actually blue jeans, so I may tone down the greens and browns I've bought and get another pair of indigo jeans. Shirts are the main issues. My wife insists I stop wearing mediums because they don't fit, but large shirts are too bulky. I'm 6'3 at 205, very long torso and arms, so finding shirts that fit is virtually impossible, and I only kept 5 shirts, 3 sweaters, and 4 dress shirts. I may switch to just long sleeve button ups and get them tailored. I still fit in my formal attire so I'm good there. But the hardest part now is going from scrubs daily to actual clothing. But I'm not too worried because Antonio has impeccable timing with his videos that cover exactly what I need help with at the time. Case in point today.
Spend money on outerwear, decent money on footwear, and some accessories that get used regularly are worth splurging on The key on the rest is to “solve” the problem of what to buy Utilize free returns to find out what size shirts, blazers etc you wear. Then set an alert to buy the brand/model and size that you want. If you’re comfortable with being preowned then even better. This way you don’t really have to think about it. For example - I like size XL sunspel riviera polos in the summer. So when I see one on sale I buy it because I know it’ll be easy to fit into my wardrobe. Same with Arcteryx skyline long sleeves for outdoor activities One thing I solved for pretty easily are pants - I just have one pair of dress pants from Outlier. I can wash them and they’re dry overnight or even dry enough in a few hours. I realized that blue colors work for me, so I wear blue up top generally and have these grey pants for dressier occasions. My summer pants are also outlier - the ability to easy launder them and not worry about holes/fading/etc is a huge deal for me especially with kids. For winter I have one pair of black heavier outliers that look like jeans but perform like the nylon pants they are Blazers I found my company and size I prefer and buy them whenever they’re on sale. Easy peasy Shoes can be tough but the same rules apply. You can “solve” for them with relatively low risk. Brands like Allen Edmonds are plentiful on eBay Poshmark etc. If you have an idea of your size, buy a few pairs (most brands have many different lasts for the same category of shoes, I.e. they’ll have 3-5 different fit penny loafers). If they don’t fit, resell them at a slight loss. I’m pretty well settled into my routine and don’t have to think about what I wear every day anymore, no matter the occasion. It’s liberating. Budget maybe $500 for returns and resell fees as part of this process. Then you’re on autopilot
I am a 37 year old father of 3, I just changed jobs, and at the same time I switched jobs my father passed away. My style really hasn't changed in 25 years....not that it was terrible, but needs to be changed. I am now the elder states man of the family and need to look the part. Acting the part done, easy. Reinventing my style, tougher.

Great recap of all the great videos on rebuilding a wardrobe. For me, this channel has been a huge help in evolving my personal style.

By employing the strategies from this channel I have rebuilt my wardrobe that is in line with my profession and goals.

Just lost 30+ lbs so rebuilding my woredrobe. Totally agree with Antonio spend a little more on your clothes so they can be altered as needed. I work with such an awesome tailor/clothier that he altered my older items to fit at no cost and I re-payed the favor by buying new items to update my fit. Great channel love the videos please keep them coming.
When I buy pants I usually try to get enough for a week of wear and I always leave one pair still with the tags on to save for when I really need them to look as good as possible
I'm about to graduate law school and am taking the Bar next July. I'm going to need more professional clothing. I also have an autoimmune condition that prevented me from keeping on weight and building muscle; I finally have it under control. I'm going to the gym regularly now and am starting to build my form now. So, I have a lot of reason to redo my wardrobe around that time as both career and fitness comes to fruition.
I'm currently in process of losing about 100+ lbs, currently down from 310 to 280. When I hit 200ish and below I'll be in dire need of a rebuild, and when I do I want to step away from graphic tees and sloppy jeans and elevate my style. Its hard for a very heavyset man to dress well and look great as far as I can tell so the weight loss is actually the first steps on my journey. There was a time in my life where I was definitely a bit higher on the style chart and I want to get back to that look. To be frank it just feels better.
I'm glad you posted this video because graduation is comming and I need to convert my college wardrobe of t-shirts to Young professional business attire asap
Foloowing since 3-4 years ago ... your tips stand the test of time. quality over quantity.
I like Blue, Black, and dark red clothes personally. I dont mind green, but definately not vibrant colours like yellow
What drives me to change my wardrobe is my new direction in life. I'm embracing my true self. I'm publishing soon my first book soon and all things are looking up for me. So it is natural that I want my clothes to fit with my new identity.
I'm 34, having recently gone through a break up that leveled me to the ground and destroyed all of my aspirations and plans. Have been working on my physique, my health, and my psychology in dealing and understanding myself on a very deep level. I decided that it is time to start looking how I feel I am on the inside, and looking at my wardrobe, the band shirts, cartoon designs and crazy ornamental patterns will not cut it. I have to reflect who I am, who I want to be and look the part for the partner that I want to have as well. So here we are now.
Unfortunately gained a bunch of weight. Had a testosterone issue that thankfully got resolved, but in the intermediary (even with working out daily) I went from 166 to 180. Now barely any of my clothes fit from casual to suits. Gained all that weight in about a month, but it’s been much slower to lose and it’s discouraging.
Realized that I am still dressing as a teenager. Casual meant a blue jean, a graphic T shirt and running shoes. Also lost about 16 pounds and want to showcase myself under a different light
Hey Antonio! thanks for the video! Im currently changing careers into an office setting and am stoked to learn a process of HOW TO DRESS WELL. Ive been subscribed for years and its been a while since watching your vids but have always found them to be knowledgable and helpful my friend.
I really need to change up everything, not just my wardrobe. I suffer from anxiety and depression and over the years I guess I've just become comfortable in what I've always had. I've worked a lot on myself over the last 4 years but feel, after watching your video, that people may be tip toeing around me as I always seem to be wearing the same clothes and they probably think I'm a bit down again. I feel pretty good right now but I know I need to change my look a bit so people won't be avoiding me.
I really started to change my style more when I started to make more money. Another thing that made me change was that people think I have the appearance and personality of a rockstar. So I decided to give it a shot and I love it. Biggest inspiration was Marlon Brando with the leather jacket. I been in love with leather jackets and boots for years. I consider my style a more cleaner rockstar appearance than the stereotypical rockstar.
I started at an important company as my first job. Style isn't that important as a student there, but I want to be set up the best once it really counts
I’m going into adulthood, and I want to know how to dress myself properly. I have tons of printed shirts and stained clothing that’s great for messing around, but won’t actually make me look good. My go to colors, other than base colors, are blue, pink, and purple, and silver. They just work on me.
I have 3 ANSON BELTS. There great. You have a lot of great advice. Thanks.
Have been wearing Anson belts for close to 8 years and I love them. Great product. One tip is leave yourself some slack on the belt before you cut it. The holes where you synch the buckle to the leather sometimes wears out and you need to make new holes. You’ll probably do this once every 2-3 years (depending on use).
i get the premise of interchangeability, but in the past i didn't care for the practice. for me, i liked having a pair of jeans, pants or shorts that i could wear wear with at most 2 shirts, maybe 3 if it was the favorite pair. granted at one point in time, i had around to 20 pairs of pants/jeans and 20 or so pairs of shorts. i suppose it also had to do with the idea of less thinking, having already established solid outfit choices. the same applied to which belt would adorn each outfit. as i rebuild some of my wardrobe, i find myself falling into the same practice. i say do what works for you and your budget!
This is a fantastic video which I'm going to have to re- watch a few times and take notes. I have a full wardrobe of different clothes but my default uniform is my dark wash jeans, black t shirt and black trainers.
Anson Belts is a great company! I bought them based on your endorsement. I wear them every day!

Same!!! I've been supporting them for more than a decade already.
At 53 yrs old, I have been in the medical field for the majority of my adult life and now I am back in school working on a Executive Masters in Sustainability Leadership degree. My wardrobe is in great need of an overhaul and I am ready and excited to make these changes in my life. This channel have been amazing and motivating. This doesn’t have to be a difficult transition, but done right will be rewarding on so many levels.
My ‘why?’ is I intend to inspire and influence the people in my organization to grow and reach our optimal abilities. New attitude.
My go-to color is black and gray. Due to its simplicity and interchangeability with anything else in my wardrobe, I find it easiest to style for my body type.
Detailed minute-to-minute video man! I LOVE IT!
This is the style advice a father should give his son.
I'm 26 years old and I really never had a sense of style, and now I really want to build a little wardrobe of nice clothes that I can feel good in. I realize when I wear nice clothes I feel more confident. I'm just starting with some staples and slowly building from there. I definatly need to get rid of some old clothes that are just horrible.
Leveled up in two ways last year: first, I became a homeowner for the first time. Second, I finally realized I was partying too much with problematic friends that were holding me back and finally decided I'm done with that life. I'm rebuilding my wardrobe verrry slowly because buying a house will make you do that, but I'm a brand new man and I'm gonna look like it, dammit!
I’ve lost 77 lbs and I was 310. Now I can actually choose what I want to wear rather than picking from Omar the tent makers castoffs. I have rediscovered my jam and your videos have helped me remember the things I used to think about every day when I dressed my self. I am now on a self image journey AND a weight loss journey
This video reminded me that I gotta get some work done with my wardobe. I'm planning to not outright rebuild my wardrobe but kind of "re-adjust" it by making my clothes fit my frame better since I've gotten a little bit leaner with working out. It's nifty that my dad's a tailor and still has a working sewing machine. And RMRS has a video just for that, too! Thanks for the videos, Antonio!
I'm almost 36 and feel my outfit is still something i would wear in my 20s. I have been working bit by bit on changing my outfits, and i made a few outfits i love. And i agree with you about shoes. Shoes are king. If you find a good pair of shoes that you love, find ways to enhance them with your ourfit.
I have 3 sherpa hoodies from Buffalo jeans. Blue, green and Grey. The sherpa lining makes it stand out compared to a normal Hoodie.
My life changes were retirement, quickly followed by a big drop in weight. I have found my casual "uniform". Now I'm working to build up variations: different colors that are interchangeable, different weights and the like for different weather, etc.
I feel like reinventing myself for the last half of my life. Been t shirt and jeans guy forever, and was proud of it. But it's time to represent my success with a wardrobe that commands a bit more respect in these later years.
Well I joined a business school ( sales department:because I am worst at sales ) and this is coed education unlike my undergrad college , so i found it is easier to network with people if they have a positive view of you, so I am learning for the past 3 months about my season( dark autumn) and colors that look good on me and what they match with, I started buying tshirts of the recommended colors ( as they are cheaper than dress shirts) to increase by understanding of color combinations.
The way you speak looking at the camera so fluently at times in one shot, is commendable.

I know that, but hey.. the confidence is top notch.. 👍
Rebuilding my wardrobe because i moved across the country for my fiance and we called the wedding off 7 weeks out. I need to rebuild because i want to communicate my personality to others in a way that makes me stand out. It would also be nice to impress the ladies, and inspire respect in my piers. My colors are: Earthtones, reds, greens, and navy blues
I have started my own business and getting married soon so generally starting a new chapter in my life so I want a new wardrobe to reflect this new me.
I am in a rut. I'm in my early 40s and am the only male in a family of females, & I have no real style. I want to impress my girlfriend when we go out. I finally bought my first pair of nice shoes from Thursday Boot Company, and I have been looking into building a capsule wardrobe for dating & work. I recently took a day to go to a tailor to get my measurements because, while I am not wealthy, I would like clothes that fit ME, or at least get customized clothing or items I can bring to a tailor. I keep a screenshot of these measurements in my phone to use when shopping online, and when going out shopping in person. I work in a casual environment, but I had a former co-worker who stayed dressed up, and he impressed me. Just when I was going to ask him for fashion tips, he left the office, but I feel I can both impress my bosses & be the new guy to look up to in the office style-wise. That's my why... it's a few jumbled up, but still important reasons to me. And important enough to leave a KZread comment, which I do not do often.

I know I’m just some rando on the internet, but know I’m proud of you for stepping up and making yourself the best version of You there is. It’s never too late to be who you want to be.
I've actually got a pretty good sense of style, but I've been steadily paring down my wardrobe to make what I have more versatile, functional, and comfortable. More than that, I became a dad in 2022. Time to step it up.
I am going to send this to my clients, this is what we preach to them. Love this advice!
if anyone can inspire me to dress nicely its this guy. awesome content man
Your 1st min of this video was an Amen moment. 100% on point. Truth bomb.
I needed this! I just got a new job working back in the office (hybrid) whereas previously just working from home full time. I really need a new wardrobe 😂
I just got a new job and I'm more or less fresh out of college. I've never really had the funds to spend on developing a wardrobe that makes me feel confident. I'm looking to change that!
To embrace and embody the visions at hand. The childhood dreams are actively moving in my direction.
In 2010 I was in a motorcycle accident and got an acquired brain injury. And I have been going through massive recovery for years and years. And I'm now to the point where I can function. I make jewelry. I love to travel. My companion caregiver. Travels with me, and I'm trying to look my best. She has started learning how to make jewelry I have started doing Comic Con and scare fest. My life has made a dramatic improvement. I wasn't expected to live and I was told I would never walk again but here I am standing on my own 2 feet. It took me 3 years to get to where I could move my left hand from off of my chest
Problem I have is I'm now 40 but look younger. I work from home now full time, and jump on call for 15 mins a day normally. The normal Dev uniform is black t-shirt and jeans. I always end up watching these videos and want to dress smarter but always end up going back to wearing the old stuff. I get new stuff and end up keeping it for best.
I do have to say love my Anson belts. Thursday boots I got 2 shoes and it's hit and miss. Love my white leather sneakers but the boots I bought scratched up bad the first day I had them. Ps. I lost 60lbs that's why I redid my wardrobe
Recently divorced. I've watched a lot of your videos and learned a whole lot. Thank you!
I want to finally get my career to the level it derserves. I have been close, but not quite being the man i envisioned when i was young. Im in shape but my wardrobe needs help. Thats why i am here. My daughter says i need a stylist. lol
New chapter in life, going through a divorce, I started working out and building my confidence back again…. This is going to put me on another level! Thanks Antonio @RealMenRealStyle.
I really like this video, it asks questions that I've never asked myself when it comes to my style as well as helps me narrow down what I like
