most desirable men's winter fashion

I got a message from Aaron on Facebook asking if I could put together a post with examples of guy's fashion that I/other betches like me might enjoy.

Thing is... as simple as it could be for guys to get dressed every day, there really are a lot of different styles/trends that look different on everyone... so you have to go with what's you. Also... I'm still nowhere near being a fashion guru. I'm still struggling to figure out my own way through that world, let alone give tips for dudes... but here we are.

I will say that the absolute most important thing, no matter what a guy is wearing, is the way it fits. There is absolutely nothing sexier than a man in a good pair of jeans [or pants in general]. Oh, and a good walk.... there's something about a good, confident walk...

I looked to my BFF Pinterest to come up with some examples of outfits/looks that did something to me..

I'm still not sure how I feel about the rolled jeans trend... but sometimes they work. With this outfit, I'm mostly liking the shoes and shirt and the ease of it all.

Pretty sure I would immediately hump someone wearing this. It's good and casual but seems like there's some effort involved.

Again, I'm not sure all guys can pull off a cardigan... but if you make it look laid back and not too prepster, I'm into it.

I just started noticing this style of sweater. It's almost like a modern turtleneck, right? Well, probably not... but it's a good thing to pick up if you see one on clearance these days [cuz the seasons are changing, fellas... so sales are everywhere!]

I enjoy the mix of patterns/fabric of these if you're getting a little more fancy. Especially that tie/jacket up there... and paisley ties.. yes please!

This is my BFF DanChiz. He rocks the rolled jeans, but especially the sweaters. Also... he knows his ties and has a lot of giveaways of all kinds on his blog.

Also... tWitch, who has been Ellen's "guest DJ" quite a bit this season and was on SYTYCD and had the most adorable wedding ever, has a really laid back but fun style that I always enjoy. [Unless it's the overall personality/gyration that I'm constantly enjoying... hard to say.] She has a whole board dedicated to her DJ's style!

Fashion is always about your personality, but this is just some examples of what my personality would be attracted to... and I think a solid amount of girls would agree with me. Just make sure it fits you... your body and who you are.

danchiz's pinspired geek chic style

Time for another guest Pinspired post! You might remember [one of my favorite people] DanChiz from the MTV TJ competition. Now he's an amazing style blogger and still kicking social media ass. He also enjoys Pinterest fashion just as much as I do, and has mastered the art of copying an outfit with different items.

I think of my style as geek chic. I like to take classic men's looks and make them more fitted. I like a tight look rather than a loose feeling.

I took inspiration from a post on Pinterest (the left look) and recreated it my way. The post from Pinterest is all full price clothing that retails significantly higher than my recreation. I searched the likes of Gilt, Loehman's and Bluefly to recreate the look. I think I did pretty well!

As you notice, my look is significantly more fitted than the Pinterest post. I kept the same color scheme and even managed to find a tartan tie that resembled the one from the Pinterest look. The only thing I did not manage to directly recreate was the desert boots. Desert boots can be a little pricey and boat shoes don't kill the bank account so I decided to wear those in the look.

Think I faired well? Let me know!

You can find out more about my style on my blog, danchiz.com! And follow my Pinterest for my style inspiration!

How great is he?! Everyone really should have a pocket DanChiz to carry with them everywhere, but since society frowns upon shrinking and cloning people, make sure you follow him. It's the next best thing.

I'd love to feature someone every week! So speak up if you'd like to be featured! [You don't have to be a  fancy style blogger!]
