These are just a few basic principles to help you look your best in a suit, as with any personal styling it should be adjusted to fit your body type and personal lifestyle. If your budget doesn’t allow you the luxury of a few different suits then chose wisely, a great suit if considered carefully can be worn for different occasions and can last you for quite a while. Pick a solid dark colour like a navy blue or black, double vents, two buttons and most of all ensure it fit you well, a fitted suit is a lot more accessible and affordable these days.

Most of all ENJOY yourself on your date, confidence is your best accessory.
