Even though we’re not particularly fans of January (the Xmas buzz is over), it’s actually a perfect time to think about all the things that we want to change in the New Year. Since fashion is extremely important in this new day and age, this could also be the perfect time to consider changing your style – especially if you’re not satisfied with it. Everyone’s goal should be to become stylish, so if you think you need a little extra help in this department, you’ve come to the right place. Take a look at some of the most important tips and tricks on how to become a more stylish man in 2019, and if you happen to get an award for Mr Stylish 2019, don’t forget to mention us in the award giving speech! Without further ado:
The essentials
One can spend thousands and thousands of dollars on clothes, but this still doesn’t mean that they’ll be stylish, classy and fashionable. The key to this is in the essentials in your wardrobe. Namely, we’re talking about the garments every man should have – jeans, t-shirts, shirts and jumpers; but how can you make them even more interesting? By keeping them simple and plain. Combining jeans with monochromatic tops is always very classy, and if you, for example, happen to possess many monochromatic t-shirts you can create yourself a multitude of great combinations that are not too much, yet look very nice. Moreover, having simple clothes means that you can combine them with bold pieces in a much more efficient way.
Suit up!
It just doesn’t do to regard yourself as stylish and not own a good suit that you will rock during important events. However, picking the right suit for you is a double-edged sword; if you don’t find one that suits you well (pun intended) the chances of you looking ridiculous are really high. This is why choosing tailored suits is an excellent idea – they are custom-made for your figure and will accentuate all the good features of your body, and vice versa. Yes, this can be a bit pricier than simply going to the store and getting yourself a suit, but the result is much better and definitely more stylish.
Sporty looks
If you like sports and love to wear sports clothes, you need to try and find good and high-quality brands. Athleisure is one of the most popular trends right now, and if you want to rock it flawlessly, make sure that you buy yourself good pieces, such as the ones from Nike, Adidas and Reebok (which has been gaining a lot of popularity again recently). On the other hand, if you’re a tennis player for example, it would be good to go with some less known but still very high-quality brands like Vollaix. There are so many great brands that you can opt for, and if you want a great look, it’s very important not save money on this.
The casual dude
Perhaps you’re not a sporty guy – if you prefer the casual style, it’s also good to know how to make it stylish. The first chapter of this article can definitely help you here, but in order to make your look more interesting, you can always opt for indie brands like Hew that create great garments by using the designs of local artists. The key to an effective and stylish outfit is the combination of the simple and the different, so pairing plain black jeans with a killer t-shirt or shirt is a great idea.
The colors
You don’t have to be an Instagram influencer to know what colors are popular now. Don’t say goodbye to pastels yet, but make some room for neon colors as they are going to be huge in 2019. Moreover, don’t forget to incorporate Pantone’s Color of 2019 – Living Coral.
So, there you go – the five chapters that will make you the most stylish person this year. It’s not difficult to follow them, and if you don’t have the eye for these things, thank God you have us!

These are great tips. I think it’s important for me to know how to be stylish when it counts just like it is for women.
Hi Peter and thanks for the great blog.
I’m showing my husband this article, lol. I’m getting tired of just plaid shirts all the time.
So neons are coming back? That was all the rage in the 80s, haha. Uh oh, I’m giving away my age…
Cheers,

I love a well dressed man. A man who cares about his appearance and he can put amazing pieces together on his own is so charming.
I love the suit up How I Met Your Mother reference! I’m all about that casual wear. My husband rocks it. But he looks damn good in a suit too!
I need to show this to my husband. For some reason, his idea of style is just putting clothes on his body. LOL
So do the same rules apply to 2021? I have to make sure my husband is still stylish.
It has always been my goal to look stylish but I just couldn’t focus on it. Haha. I’ll take note of your tips. They’re still relevant in 2021.
Being the casual dude has always done it for me! No more stress with neckties!!! Hihi…

This is still up to date, you should take out 2019 from the topic 🙂 It’s a great post with some really great advice!
Ive sent this through as a subtle hint to my husband. I love him but sometimes he can be the most unstylish person I know! And thats including me!
Those are some great points for men and it’s great to have a certain style of your own.
Casual and sporty styles seemed like a better fit to me. But the other ones looked good too.
