Yoga has got star status today, imported from the west, it is gaining popularity…and there is no fitness status which can match its star status. But those days are no more there when these holistic regime followers used to be those bare-chested yogis in the hills. Yoga has gone through a big makeover has gone glam…

Staying in spirit of style
You might want to double up your gym gear as your yoga togs but keep the following pointers in your mind. If you are planning to go stylish, it is absolutely ok but don’t forget the stress lay on the right color combo to

Get maximum benefits out of your activity. Suitably, white or light pastel shades, since they invoke satgram or a sense of purity and serenity in ones body.

Cool cool cotton
For yoga gear, choice a suitable fabric must be the topmost priority. While high intensity workout requires sweat- absorbent fabrics, but if you wear the same fabric for yoga, it would indeed be a messy affair for you…..too sweaty to let you at peace.
Loose cotton fits, work the best for yoga. If lycra or spandex are picked by you, then choose those with higher cotton content.
While gym gear is made of slightly thicker fabric, yoga gear is thinner and not body hugging. The lowers you choose should be straight, parallel fitting and must not hang below the ankles………moreover tight fitting clothes can make it tough for you to perform exercises that needs stretching. Also, since yoga is practiced in the open, synthetics can make you sweat you even more.
Some ethnic touch
 What could be yoga without any ethnic touch?
Cotton tees with some spiritual print can be a great deal, since they add the style factor to you. You can also accessorize with a rudraksh, worn around your neck, or worn around your wrist.

Yoga mat
Direct contact with earth can reduce yoga’s effect on your body. This is why yoga is always performed on a mat. These mats also prevent dirt that may trouble you in those inhalation kriyas. Yoga is also a form of worship for some, so it should not be performed with shoes or socks on.

There is a common question a lot of men ask. It is “how do others perceive me?”. Have you ever LOST an opportunity in business or in a relationship and just didn’t know WHY? It could be an IMAGE PROBLEM.
Everyone is uniquely different: therefore not every fashion trend is going to look right on you. This is why it is very important to follow the following steps before you shop:
1. Determine what colors and are going to work best with your physical coloring (skin color, hair color, eye color) crucial when choosing fabric colors. Colors can brighten your face and bring you forward or they can wash you out and make you look sallow.

2. Determine your Body Type: (big and tall, short and slim, athletic, rotund etc.) Crucial when choosing styles and creating the correct silhouette for your body’s form: Pleats versus plain front trousers makes a huge difference on an individual who is conscious of their middle section.

3. Consider your Activity level: crucial when choosing fabrics: silk vs. high performance worsteds.

4. Consider your Lifestyle socially and in business. Determines the types of fashion you will need the most.

5. Consider your profession: An engineer will have different fashion needs from an attorney, or the editor of a magazine: the well tailored suit vs. well tailored business casual. Why well tailored? There’s no reason for anyone to look sloppy and having the right fit is SOMETHING SHE DEFINITELY NOTICES. Details are considered very important.

6. Consider Your Personality: Your apparel will create an individual flair and “The Statement” you wish to project.

7. Consider the Image you wish to convey: Studies show 30 seconds is how long it takes for a first impression. In those 30 seconds you are judged on many things, including: Education, Sophistication, Trustworthiness, Social Standing, Success, and Competence. The results are based almost entirely on visual cues. Appearance does count! And first impressions affect salaries, career advancement and the influence you will have on others.

8. Consider your personal likes and dislikes: determines what to look into and what to stay away from.

9. Consider the climate in your area: determines fabrics and types of clothing needed.

10. Consider your formal wear needs: Every gentleman needs at least one tuxedo in his closet. And if you are going to be your best, you better get this one RIGHT FOR HER in social settings.
