- A tailored three-season suit – every man should have at least two suits, of course (one for funerals and one for smarter occasions), but take it up a notch by having that one suit be tailored, and three season wear. Three seasons will allow you get the most wear out of it, and having it tailored will keep you look at your best. A tailored suit is important, because it looks professional, fits well enough to be comfortable, and will always keep you looking stylish and fashionable. Pick a style which is not one of the current fads, but which is a classic look, and you will get those most out of your clothes.
- A full shaving kit –near the top of the list of stuff for guys is the full shaving kit. Yes, using a disposable razor is quicker and possibly easier, but sometimes you just want the real deal, don’t you? To be able to use a full kit is a decadent experience – plus it gives the impression of you being a suave and sophisticated gentleman. Other men will love the look, and to make things better, it does actually give a better shave.
- Quality coffee – much like proper liquor, quality coffee is one of those things that men have to have. Coffee is common; good coffee is not. If you want to look cool, splurge on some good quality coffee, and see that you have the equipment to go with it. Good coffee has a better taste, better caffeine disposal, and doesn’t leave such a bad taste in your mouth overall – try it, and you won’t ever drink bad coffee again. Quality coffee does cost more, but it might also have the fringe benefit of helping you drink less coffee. Just don’t drink coffee right before bed.
- Cologne – nobody likes a bad smell, man or woman. Make sure you always smell on point by using cologne regularly. Choose one of the more subtle scents if you want to keep your cologne use on the down-low, but there is such a wide variety of scents that you could have several of them for different occasions. Using cologne adds to the overall loom of a man – it’s the same as wearing a tailored suit rather than simply having one off the rack – it adds an extra layer to his mystique. Cologne is particularly useful for when you want to impress someone, such as out on a date.
- A shirt that doesn’t need ironed – this might sound out of place, especially after all the others, but every man has been in the situation of needing a shirt, but not having one that is presentable. Having a shirt which doesn’t need ironed means that you will never be caught in a bind, and will always look presentable. They can also be useful for, say, having a presentation at work – that would be the day you spill something on yourself. A non-iron shirt can save the day, and save your reputation in the company.
