The Essentials..

Hello Everyone!

I've been on a hiatus of sorts. My wife and I have welcomed a new addition to our family. With his arrival I've been praying and thinking about the many things that I want to teach him as he grows into his manhood. I realized that the items that I want to share with him I can share with you all as well. These items I call The Essentials..

1.) You never get a 2nd chance to make a 1st impression. Always put your best foot forward. When you walk out your front door you are on stage. How will you perform?

2.) Choose a signature cologne to wear. This cologne should blend well with your skin. Wear the cologne and don't let it wear you.

3.) Always carry a handkerchief. You never know what you will need it for.

4.) Know how to tie a tie, as well as a bow tie. How you wear your tie can define how good your suit will look on you.

5.) Keep a pair of dress boots. You can wear them with a suit or a pair of nice jeans. The shoes you wear define the style of a man.

6.) Keep a pair of classic all white gym shoes. Whether it be a pair of Nike Air Force Ones or Converse All Stars. A clean pair of all white sneakers always does the trick.

7.) Pick a nice suit blazer for your wardrobe. You can wear it to go out to dinner or use it to wear with some jeans.

8.) It's better to have one tailored suit than to have 10 suits that don't fit you.

9.) Own a nice timepiece/watch. It will give you the time and a nice sense of style.

10.)Own a nice pair of cuff links. Whether you are going out on the town or going to work, the cuff links you wear can set you a part from the rest.

I hope these "Essentials" assist you in being a man of style.

Be blessed!
