Men are no different than women when it comes to what they wear. They fancy themselves Johnny Depp and wear a porkpie hat with a goatee or they see the Abercrombie and Fitch boys and starve themselves until they can wear a t-shirt with some faded pattern of something on it that makes their upper bodies look concave.
Trying to find a color that works for your skin tone isn’t the easiest thing in the world. Here are some quick tips to help you choose:
1. Fair Skin - If you are a blond or a redhead, you need to stick with dark colors. Your pale skin looks even worse when paired with white. Go with navy, blues, basic black or a sage green.
2. Sallow Skin - If you look a bit yellow or green, you definitely need to avoid wearing these colors. A yellow shirt will just make you look like a giant banana. Go with whites, blues and black.
3. Darker Skin - You have it made. Pretty much all colors work for you. Stay away from dark browns or dull colors that don’t highlight your gorgeous color.

Now, let’s move onto eye color and what will highlight your features:

4. Blue Eyes - If you want to bring out your baby blues, you’ve got to wear blue. Look for shirts that match the color of your eyes. This will really make them more noticeable.

5. Brown Eyes with Red Tones - If you have dark brown eyes that have flecks or stripes of red, you need to go with warm tones to highlight them. Stick with oranges, reds or yellows.

6. Brown Eyes with Green Tones - If you have a hint of green in your eyes, you’ll want to bring it out. Purple, especially plum, is the ideal color to do this. You’ll be amazed at how green your eyes look.

7. Green or Hazel Eyes - These eyes can get lost in a color shuffle. If they are green, wear similar green colors to draw attention to them. Hazel is a little more difficult. Pick the color you want to draw out the most - for blue, wear blue, for green, wear green.

Many people wear clothes because they like it without even knowing the brand. Some rock a shirt because it’s a masterpiece of a friend and they want to show support. There are exceptions to every rule and we can argue about each of these forever. But the bottom line is this; don’t walk around like a billboard.
