Dressing up is really a pain for some people especially when you get frequent invites to events. #GirlBoss once told me that an outfit can only appear twice max on Instagram. If it appears more than once, it means that it has been worn too often. Of course, that was before she got pregnant and ran out of outfit ideas LOL.
If you are a reader who follows my IG religiously looking at all my photos with that same face and poses, you will notice that my outfits are almost the same but not exactly the same either. (Like what my Thai business partners say – same same but different.)
My fashion mantra? Mix and match. As a man, we do not have much options when it comes to handbags, heels, 10,000 types of hair accessories or rings and necklaces but that doesn't mean that we have to look boring.
My go-to outfit staples are my Uniqlo $7.90 t-shirt (lol for real!) and jeans/pants from Uniqlo which is usually pretty affordable as well.
Let Mr. Smith teach you how to accessorise your basic tees and still stand out in the crowd.
Shoes
 |
| Clarks |
We should not judge a book by its cover but I do judge people by their footwear. I always believe that there should be a pair of shoes for every occasions. One should not just have a pair of running shoes and wear it with everything. I once actually stopped my campmate from going out with us cause he insisted on wearing his army-issued running shoes. LOL. Also, I'm a US size 13 and if I can get shoes you guys can too.
Watch
I'm not a big spender when it comes to timepieces. I think it is okay if it's a few hundred dollars - a thousand maybe but spending five digits on a watch is a no no for me. A good timepiece is pretty much an accessory to me and I'm not exactly the most careful person when it comes to taking care of my belongings, so I don't think I'm going to get a really expensive watch any time soon. I actually got this from the in-flight shopping catalogue on one of the trips I took recently.
Jacket
I know Singapore is mad hot but I actually have a lot of jackets. From hoodies to leather jackets, you name it and I pretty much have it. It's almost like the soul of my outfit most of the days if I'm heading to events or meetings. You can either hold it on your hand as an accessory, put it on to look smart or even offer it to any lady if she's feeling cold. See, 1 stone, 3 birds. Very very high returns.
Sunglasses
No one should ever step out of the house without a pair of sunglasses when you are living in sunny Singapore. Besides the obvious reason that you need to protect your eyes, a good pair of sunglasses works very well as an accessory too!
If you have yet to get a pair of trendy sunglasses, here's a good deal for you. Check out https://www.smartbuyglasses.com.sg/ They have one of the greatest range of products at very low prices. Basically a one-stop shop online when you are looking for eyewear with leading brands such as Ray-Ban, Tom Ford, Miu Miu, Fendi, Versace, Chloe and many more.
Now that I've shared with you my secret gentlemen, it's your turn to go out there and look like Smith.
Be like Smith.
LOL.
