Men: How To Wear Bright Colors

For years there has been a macho connotation amongst guys, that men who where bright colors are fairies. What a joke! This ridiculous implication was even around in the colorful 80's.
Even though there are tremendous bonuses for wearing bright clothing, like attention from the opposite sex and pissing off your dad, some men still find it difficult to break out of the bland and embrace the exciting.
Here are a few tips that might inspire you to do something a little different...


1. Work Your Way Into It 
Start off with something halfway between 'fuck you' bright and 'forget me' dull. 
Did I mention that this is a vintage women's blazer? I bet you wouldn't have known if I didn't say something right? The best treasures are in the woman's section.



2. One Louder
Wear just ONE bright item. A bright shirt with black jeans, black t-shirt and black boots. The contrast between light and dark is a subtle way of making a big impression.



3. Go For It
Wear the brightest colors you can find! Pants, shoes, shirt, belt everything! 
The trick is confidence. You have to own it. 



4. Change It Up
Because bright clothing is so memorable, try not to wear the same colorful item to often.  Go shopping!
I just got this little number from the Western Costume Sale in North Hollywood. Thanks Jayde ;)



Good luck,
