Party Animal 101

Page 2 of 2         Now that we’re done dolling up the girls, how do we dress the men?         Before you guys brush this aside as another rant of fashion untruths in a bid to make this article less oriented to the girls, I would like to assert that it is not of our interest to get you into gaudy Hawaiian shirts or meaningless heeled leather boots (not in our tropical heat) to that next bash. Neither are we keen to put you in the latest unaffordable Fall runway collection (more fit for countries that are actually experiencing Fall) because we know that it’ll really make you stand out in the party, for all the wrong reasons!         This dishing of advice is to make you more of a stud than a sore thumb. I guess the conceal-and-attract fashion function does not apply in this case, since for men, it’s the typical long-sleeved shirt or polo tee, paired with jeans or pants.         Like the girls, you might want to cultivate a wardrobe of colours that go well with your face and skin tone. I’ve underestimated the potential of cufflinks for far too long. After 21 years, I’ve finally ran out of ideas as to what to get for my dad. But not after I checked out www.cufflinks.com, which is the one-stop for you to snag cufflinks to add that extra sparkle to your long-sleeved shirt. But take heart guys, accessorising with more attitude than jewellery is what you should be aiming for.         As for makeup, unless you look to the powdered faces and glossy lips of the televised Taiwanese heart-throbs as benchmarks, do without it for the time being. Guys have more sweat glands than girls have oil glands. I'm sure you wouldn’t want to run the risk of makeup streaming down your grinning face while pulsating to club beats.         Think you’re starved of makeup and left playing only with measly accessories? Well, keep your eyes wide open for the arrays of cologne at Takashimaya basement. Use scent like a prized weapon to bring out that charmer in you. What better ego-booster than have a girl elbow her way through throngs of party-goers just to get a closer whiff of that Aramis fragrant?         Now that you guys are all geared up to invade the next tertiary party scene all groomed, styled and scented, I say it's party time! hooked Comments Write Comment Name: Guest Title: Comment: << Start < Prev 1 2 Next > End >>
