When it comes to great outfits, it’s truly in the details. Apply these tidbits to your next look and you’ll be sure to stand out in the best way possible!

Watch your tone:
When it comes to wearing leathers- be it shoes, belts, or briefcases, be sure to match the colors. It will pull your entire look together.

Did you know? 
Your tie bar should be placed between your third and fourth shirt button. Not too high, and not too low. It’s an subtle accessory but you still want it to be seen!

Show off a little. 
If you like to “show a shirt” (which tailors usually recommend that you do), your dress shirt should pop out 1/2” from under your jacket sleeve.

Matchy matchy.

The width of your suit lapel should match the same width as your tie-tailors can recommend which width best suits your frame.

Speaking of ties…
Once its on, it should touch your pant waistband or belt buckle. Anything shorter or longer won’t be in proportion with your body.

How to tell if your suit jacket is the right length: 
Stand straight with your arms at your sides. Without moving, curl your fingers up. Your jacket should gently graze the crevice its just made.
