Guys: A Simple Tank Top Can Add Some Sizzle to Summer Attire!

by

Well the summer is fully upon us, as we candidly enter the month of July, and that means that you have some serious wardrobe fashion options guys! One aspect of men’s summer fashion that I see often overlooked is the power of the tank top. There are so many ways that a tank top can really add that spice to your outfit and really make you shine; especially if you workout and you are trying to look all hunky for the ladies during these warmer months that lie ahead (see picture to the upper left for a great example of how sassy, sexy and manly a guy can look when the proper tank top is paired with the right men’s accessories; notice the designer men’s necklace he is wearing too?).

Perhaps one of the neatest parts about tank tops is they are cheap. Really cheap! You can easily find some pretty nifty-looking designer men’s tank tops online—and literally all over the place! You will want to make sure that you know what sizes that you wear. An easy way to do so is by taking the shirt size that you normally wear and upping it one size for a tank top. This is because once you get that sucker washed, it will shrink; as most tend to be made of cotton and will shrink in the wash. But that’s a good thing and allows for a tighter fit on the frame!

A tank top truly silhouettes the body nicely, rounding the curves and accentuating your pecks and really making your arms stand out (and if you have some pretty built up guns then a tank top truly will make you look fab!). So get with the picture guys! T-shirts are cool for the summer, no doubt! But a tank top can really make your image shine!

Dressing for Success

by

As businesses begin to stress comfort, creativity and personalization, there is a push within many businesses to allow casual dress. This used to be a Friday only affair, but anymore it is becoming a daily event. This is causing some problems within the office though. While business casual is fully acceptable, many people are taking this to the casual world and this is not acceptable within a professional office.

It is important to remember that you are a professional person. While it is not necessarily comfortable to be in a suit all day, it does have a very specific affect on the people who happen to enter the office. A suit gives a person the sense that the person wearing the suit actually knows what they are doing. The suit also gives the person an aire of authority and professionalism that is missed when a person goes casual.

This does not mean that business casual is out though. Not everyone needs to wear a suit and suits are not even necessarily appropriate all the time. It is important when wearing business casual that it is not casual. This means no jeans, no flip flops, and no comical tee-shirts. The shirts should be collared or professional. The bottoms should be made out of a non-denim material. Khaki and business pants are appropriate, but not necessarily shorts.

A good rule of thumb for business casual is that you should be dressed in such a manner as to be able to meet customers or the head of the business without concern about how you are dressed. You should always appear clean and well dressed when dressed in business casual. Avoid clothing that is baggy or excessively tight. This is a more classic dress style while casual is a more trendy dress style.

Accessories such as purses, briefcases and jewelry should be kept to a minimum. If carrying a purse or a briefcase, use the smallest one possible and keep it plain. If possible, match the case with the shoes. Make sure nothing is overly worn or in poor condition. This will give a very negative impression on anyone you would meet.

Don’t Forget That Designer Men’s Belt to Complete Your Outfit!

by

There is so many wondrous men’s fashion staples that exist today that can really add that finishing touch of charm to any outfit that you choose to wear, guys! Aside from some obvious accessories, like the always coveted leather cuff, or a designer necklace, or even some nifty shoes or a flashy pair of boots, another timeless piece is the always helpful designer men’s belt. Not too many outfits these days – at least in my humble fashion opinion – look complete without the addition of a really sweet-looking and saucy belt added to the mixture.

Belts not only serve to hold our pantaloons upon our person, but they can really add some fantastic sheen to any outfit that you choose to wear! The niftiest things about the many different designer men’s belts that you can opt to buy and sport these days are actually threefold; at least in my mind. For one, you can easily find belts that have interchangeable buckles that come with them; talk about options galore! Two, there are so many different designs of belts out there, that by adding just one to your wardrobe you really open up your options as far as matching color schemes and tones, and adding some additional flare. Lastly, it’s really easy to find men’s belts these days, especially flashy, classy and gaudy ones—if you simply look online for them!

If you were to ever see me strutting my stuff gallantly down the street on my way to a hopping night club on a Friday night, rest assured: A designer men’s belt and customized buckle is most certain to be upon my person! I just don’t feel that any outfit is done without them! Chances are that many people out there agree with me: Belts work wonders for wardrobes!

Who is Chef Zero?

by

We all know the French brag about being the best chefs in the world, but who really was the first one to put meat to a flame? Who was the first to season food and mix herbs and spices to make the dish better? Who decided salad came before the entree?

And what about gravy?

Every region in the world has its own style and native ingredients. Cuisine has developed over centuries of trial and error. In my opinion some of the best food in the world is is from the Middle East. Because of the trade routes that crossed from Spain and China introducing spices and products never seen or experienced, the food has exceptionality like no other area. Someone there knew how to blend flavors and cooking techniques to make great food, but how did it all come to be?

But let’s get back to the original question.

Who do you think was the first to form a cooking vessel, put a fish or beef shank in and boil it with roots or leaves called “herbs”? Who do you think had the idea of frying an egg or making a loaf of bread? And who came up with the idea of desserts after the meal?

Why are salt and pepper the most common spices, and sitting on our tables?

Much like an epidemic has a patient zero, leave a comment on who you believe chef zero was. Was it an Aborigine on an island craving a Cioppino, a caveperson tired of eating raw meat and preferred a medium well dinosaur, or a medieval knight produced the first kabob slaying a dragon.

Heck, for all we know Adam and Eve got tired of eating fruits and vegetables, and Noah had the first all-you-can-eat buffet on his ark.
