When it comes to Accessorizing in men’s fashion, my head begins to spin with all the possible avenues you can stroll down to make sure you find the perfect accent to contribute to your overall personal style.  From hats to shoes, you are bound to find the perfect accessory to match your creative personality and lively style.

Through all the possible style genres that we can pick from, you can bet that their are some accessories available to make your look stand out even more.  The goal is to find what fits YOUR personality and personal style.

Accessorizing isn’t a hard task to accomplish, it just takes understanding of your own sense of fashion and current trends to pull off an amazing look that could not be matched by any one else around  you! You have to dig deep within your favorite stores to find the final touch necessary to top off your look.

Below I have compiled a list of my most important reasons why men should focus on accessorizing. I feel that this guide can help steer men of all walks of life, ethnicity, and fashion preferences in the right direction.  You can also find tips on enhancing some of the accessories that you currently own.  So before you throw away that dusty scarf, or toss that uniquely rare snap-back cap in the garbage, read how you could breath life back into it and have it back in the “fashion business” in no time while also revamping your own personal style!

Head wear

In Men’s Fashion, the crown of the head is one of two places where the most attention is captured.  When people are looking at what you are wearing (assuming your walking past them or toward them) the first place their eyes land is on your eyes.  They are going to take a mental photograph within a split second of looking at you.  Now assuming your not wearing sunglasses (which I will address further below) they are going to “mentally” remember your headwear.

They will remember that rare snap-back your rocking, or that exclusive messenger cap!

When talking about first impressions, here is truly where it begins.  Because all of one’s attention is going to be focused on the crown of your head, it’s important to go all out or don’t bother.  Half-stepping here is not what you want to do.  That’s like dressing casual for the Oscars!  It’s simply the place where you want to set the perfect impression due to all the eyes that will be gazing out of curiosity.

In the above picture there are some quality snap-backs that would fit my style and personal preference, however; you should search your genre and see what could work out perfectly for you and your look.

There obviously isn’t a definite right or wrong answer when it comes to accessorizing, you just need to remember, “what works for someone else, may not work out too well for you.”

Here is a site that I found helpful in searching for snap-backs – Snapbackhats I also found Snapbackthethrowback

If you are looking for wide array of hats ranging in all types of styles, then I recommend this site hats.com

Eye ware

Never doubt the ability that sunglasses can give creativity and style.  No matter the weather for a particular day, wearing sunglasses automatically forces the thought of “trendy” and “stylish”.  When I think of sunglasses, I automatically think of the someone walking down Melrose Ave. In Hollywood, CA.  I think of someone who is living the “rich and famous” lifestyle.

I’m thankful that I was just imagining these things because in today’s fashion world, you don’t have to be rich or famous to stunt a pair of sunglasses such as Ray Bans , all you need is a sense of fashion and an accepting personality to accessorize using a pair of sunglasses.

Earlier I mentioned that the crown of the head was the second most important place to look your best, however; the first place to captivate some attention is your eyes.  When you walk in a room or amongst a group of people, the first place they are going to acknowledge you is by making eye contact.  So by having a pair of stylish sunglasses to cover them, you have already left your mark!

Some guys prefer reading glasses or contacts, either of the three can impact your wardrobe and magnify your style by 10!

The most important thing you want to remember when wearing glasses is they don’t have to be name brand.  Going to your local Macy’s or outlet mall can do the trick needed to pull off this look.  Don’t put yourself in a bind by spending hundreds of dollars on something that you could get for much less and still make it look great!

Neck ware

Immediately following the “two most important places to look your best” you have your neckware which must also be prepped for the curious eyes that wonder.  This area is very unique because it can be played up to so many different styles. The following are accessories that can help you step your game up!

  • Neckties (color, pattern, and style of them can play a role)
  • Necklaces (silver, gold, etc)
  • Scarfs (for the winter)
