How to be a Stylish Teenager
Young girls never had a problem getting nice-looking and fashionable clothes. Young lads, however, have a hard time with chic clothes. Maybe in the past, yes, but not anymore now! Today’s fashion for teenage girls and boys has an abundance of choices to select from. Boys now have their share of a wide array of clothing from informal or casual wear, such as long-sleeve shirt to urbane, tailored, etc.
To be fashionable is not an exclusivity of young girls; boys want to be fashionable as well. Being well dressed helps young boys to build their confidence and do away with their insecurities especially during high school. This has a big repercussion in the life of a teenage boy as the way he will be recognized by his peers can make or unmake him. Nevertheless, compared to girls of their age, boys still get less suggestions and guidance when it comes to fashion. If you are wondering why, it is because fashion for boys does not change dramatically unlike with that of the girls.
For boys, to be fashionable and chic is the same as being comfy and feeling and looking good. Listed below are some tips that will guide boys to become chic and stylish.
1. Boys’ wardrobe must have jeans, black pants, khakis, long and short sleeved t-shirts, quite a few button down shirts, a tie, shoes, sneakers, boots and tennis shoes. By matching the piece of clothing in your wardrobe in various ways, you, the teenage boy, can achieve the chic and stylish look you want to have. Do take note that it is also wise to have one tailored suit in your wardrobe, although you may not to get to wear it regularly.
2. The jeans is another item that can give you that stylish look but you need to make sure that you are comfortable with them and that they also look good on you. In fashion nowadays are the skinny jeans. Pair it off with a skinny t-shirt with a printed slogan associated with a movie or a band.
3. Informal clothing that is also trendy and nice is t-shirts with quotes or images. If you go to the department stores, you will notice that there is a big selection of long and short-sleeved t-shirts. If the teenager wants to make a good impression, I suggest that he wear a polo.
4. Hoodies are recommended for boys who are sporty. It can be the zippered or the pull-over type. Don it with a baseball hat courtesy of your school or a favored team. Solid colors or bright designed t-shirts and track trousers can give you a more fashionable style that are available for sports clothing brands.
5. The use of accessories is also a must. Indeed, accessories are not just limited to girls. It is also for you – boys; such as sunglasses, belts, scarves, ties, leather jackets, bags. With your jeans and a jacket, complete your being in style with a hat and fine-looking pair of glasses.
6. Avoid wearing clothes that do not fit you well. This will only destroy your objective of being in style. Not because baggy pants look perfect on others, it will look good on you as well. Designer clothing does not also mean you will look good on it. Remember that some clothes may fit other people perfectly but it may not be for you.
7. Another bit of advice, socks are a no-no in sandals, so do not wear one if you are with your sandals. Turned-around baseballs hats also do not create any fashion statement.
