14 Style Tips I Wish I Knew Earlier

[@BDilliBayster]

Once again, great tips. I was telling someone the other day that a lot of cats are sleeping on Ox blood color.

[@PrinceJes]

Buying clothes for your body type is actually a simple unheard tip, thanks! Can't believe I haven't heard of it.

[@Sadsobblei6l]

I experimented with some colors like you said fam . I brought a short sleeve sky blue Henley and some light grey chino pants from Walmart. Even the cable bill lady was complimenting my style. All I paid was like 36 dollars for the whole outfit. Those style tip works 👍

[@TheStyleOG]

Nice !

Chínos are my new Casual Friday dress style to wear with a well cut sports coat, instead of the usual blazer and light grey Woolen cuffless trousers. During the last year the quality and design of chinos available in Melbourne Australia has radically changed, with the leading independent suppliers of casual clothes lifting their game. I also realised that for the first time in the past 50 years, that I don't have a pair of oxblood shoes. So shoe shopping is now at the top of my post-COVID To Do List. A very interesting presentation from A to Z. Phil.

[@tallking7777]

Chinos are a game-changer for me so much versatility and plus you stand out from everybody else wearing jeans.

[@TheStyleOG]

Indeed !

[@rhiconic]

Try the jeano from Peter Christian uk you will love them.

[@jeffjdt]

I cant tell you how much you have inspired me and helped me get a bit of style. I turn 50 in a couple months. I havent owned a suit since I was a kid. I do Business Development for my company and I never looked the part....Until now! I just bought my first first blazer. I have purchased many of the shoes you suggested, nice pants, sweaters, nice watch, etc. I just need some nice button up fitted shirts and a full suit now. I have also learned to shop Nordstrom Rack and Dillards Clearance, ASOS, Express, etc. I have never gone to any of those places before. I have also lost about 20 pounds since Covid hit, so I feel much better. Thank you Sir for you knowledge and wisdom!

[@TheStyleOG]

Glad to hear it Jeff !

[@seeowins]

Appreciate the gems as always OG! Spent many years working in a dry cleaners. Learned a ton about clothing, quality and style taking in orders and speaking to customers. It really helped step my style game up as well as knowledge of good quality fabrics and material. Helped mold my style to where it is now.

[@TheStyleOG]

Great experience!

[@M82RKY]

Recently I have gone for basics when it comes to style, clothing that is versitle and works with other versitle items buying clothes that are good quality and value and keeping minamalistic with no brands. I've never looked so good👌

[@TheStyleOG]

Well done !

[@brunogiambroni1422]

Made a lot of these mistakes myself. My tailor is a godsend honestly

[@earldeanpowell]

I always have a pair of cordovan less formal dress shoes, usually wing-tips, and these are what I usually take when traveling. Size 17 take up a LOT of room and they get HEAVY! Regrading pant, maybe it is because i'm in my 60s, I don't even own jeans. I go with dockers rather than chinos. At my size, the heavier material is the better option. G, you never fail to deliver. You ARE the man.

[@TheStyleOG]

Appreciate you Earl !

[@leroy592]

I wish I knew about the matching tie & pocket square sets back in the day. I stopped wearing matching sets about 3 years ago. I also stopped wearing the cardboard pocket squares 3 years ago as well. You're definitely right about oxblood shoes, they're definitely slept on.

[@TheStyleOG]

Slept on !

[@brandonbennett4615]

Drop gems as always. As a graphic designer, simplicity is the king. But looking back I'm glad I grew into wearing more solid colors. I find them easy to work with and versatile for any outfit, casual or formal.

[@mattjohnson9469]

Pink looks good on you, I like to keep a good few pink shirts and tops in my wardrobe. 👍

[@lucasbishop4764]

I find #12 (no matching tie & square) to be a flexible style "rule". Akin to not wearing black and brown or not mixing metals. It's a general rule of thumb for 'safe' outfit construction but it can be bent, especially when considering in the patterns in the outfit. For example, (assuming the colors compliment) while wearing a pinstripe suit with a gingham shirt, a matching set, solid colored tie/square can ground the look.

[@TheStyleOG]

Appreciate the input !

[@No85Limits]

Oxblood Chelsea Boots... bought my first 2 pairs of chelsea boots last fall, got a black pair and a color close to Oxblood but not exactly, I'd have to look it up for exact name. Very versatile. I just started dressing up in the last couple of years. My fiance has encouraged it. I was into watches and cologne so now I'm putting it altogether and feel so much more confident. I really enjoy your channel. I have 2 suits. I don't have an office job so it's not necessary for me to have so many... but I love nice shoes and boots. May have to find a tailor here in brooklyn or nyc to tailor my polo shirts. I always find them to be a little bit baggy.

[@StarlightSGs]

The fit on the right at 2:06 is so damn clean. 💯

[@TheStyleOG]

Thanks!

[@belisarius1]

Bro when you gonna make an IG so we can see your styles?

[@tma615]

I’ve been appreciating the advice here now for a little bit and this one came at the right time. Keep it steady!

[@TheStyleOG]

Glad to hear it !

[@Hitman77]

Salute OG

[@TheStyleOG]

Salute !

[@ohiorichkidbeats]

Especially sweaters..they seldom fit off rack..tailoring is a must for the right (fly) look

[@anthonyperez4735]

High school/college Anthony rocked earrings, chain and rings...just doesn’t look right now. A great watch is the power move. Keep it simple and low key.

[@TheStyleOG]

Yes Sir !

[@BURNETTWEALTHGROUP]

Wow didn’t know that about the pocket tie. I’m the guy that buys the matching kit

[@WS-oh8mr]

You’re so right. Having a tailor is SUPER important for clothes. I typically only have suits tailored, but I’ve seen how impactful some minor adjustments can be in casual clothing too. I have to work on that for myself.

[@TheStyleOG]

Game changer !

[@uncleal5517]

Preach OG, preach . I used to be a fan of a certain clothing line but after watching this channel for over a year it makes me want to step my game up. I absolutely have become “ dare I say obsessed “ with chinos and trying to find a way to put my style on it . Ox Blood shoes will be in my closet this year. As always another great video. Peace and Blessings OG.

[@TheStyleOG]

Peace Al!

[@williambruce9207]

They used to have you match tie and pocket square!

[@mikemontesa3181]

Heard you mention a few of these tips in other videos you've posted, O.G., but it's good to have them hammered home again. Thanks!

[@ivanedwards7275]

I belong to the 30 and up club. I used to collect Jordans for years. As soon as 28/29 crept up on me I found myself getting stuck between trying to be an adult and wearing classic shoes brands and styles versus rockin my favorite Js. It took me years to figure it out. It feels good to know I'm not the only professional brotha rocking J's still. Salute!

[@TheStyleOG]

Salute Ivan !

[@scottveatch9903]

I did some of the same things, Jeff. I used to be so cautious about spending $$ on essentials - I looked for bargains on dress shoes, dress coats. It took me 5-6 pairs of bad dress shoes before I learned (and you were one of the ones who schooled me - thanks!) This is another great video of yours. Salute!

[@TheStyleOG]

Salute Scott !

[@hustlemadec9985]

Those ox bloods were nice

[@brydongervais3555]

That polo is NEEAATTT

[@TheStyleOG]

Thanks Brydon !

[@Chefjoe63]

LoL yeah I made lots of the same style mistakes especially the matching tie and pocket square 😂😂, I grew up around some old players and pimps and that's how they dressed so I got tips from some of them. I did however develop a great fashion sense and watching your videos my brother has helped me take it to another level. Salute OG

[@TheStyleOG]

Salute JT !

[@phillipmoodie9071]

@J T Walker. My Business partners, for the last 30 years have been leading Criminal Lawyers and their "Clients" along with a few leading Brothel owners, certainly know how to spend big on clothes and accessories. While I stand out like the proverbial Sore Thumb, dressed in my navy blue suits, I have to admit that they all are fun people to be around, because for them, enjoying life is their number one priority. Phil.

[@Chefjoe63]

@@phillipmoodie9071 you are so right,one of my brothers was a pimp back in the day and he hung out with other like minded gentlemen 😁 so Sansa belts were a thing and everything matching,the memories are however amazing.

[@michaeljohnson1015]

Salute...A senior told me my freshman yr in college ..u might wanna start rocking some undershirts because your white long sleeve is hella yellow underneath...😂😞...lesson learned

[@TheStyleOG]

Ha !

[@darkman8022]

Wow never thought about taking casuals to the taylor

[@thebomb363]

Another great Video OG. I would add linen trousers in with chinos because they are fantastic in warm climate whether they're 100% linen or blended with other materials.

[@TheStyleOG]

Appreciate the input !

[@charliebush6836]

Great points.... yeah I read someone’s comments you need an IG account to show off some of your style. Thanks again for the knowledge. Salute ✊🏿✊🏿

[@TheStyleOG]

Gotta step up my Instagram game !

[@davidguido7285]

So true on the oxblood shoes. Completely underrated. Respect, O.G.!

[@TheStyleOG]

Respect David !

[@ericdiefel4505]

Plus, wearing under shirts means you don't have to wash or dry clean your shirts as often. Hence extending the life. Saaaaallluute!

[@TheStyleOG]

Truth !

[@mrmartywaring]

Great tips! You should put some of these tips on Philly CAM

[@ojibwayinca8487]

This is one of your best videos. Great job. My biggest mistake, thinking style and grooming issues were not masculine. I avoided tailoring, hair sculpting products, colognes, and more.

[@TheStyleOG]

Appreciate it JD!

[@ProfessorTurnipAlpha]

You're dead right about oxblood! Finding anything in that colour is difficult, but god damn, it truly is red gold.

[@TheStyleOG]

Gold !

[@bkvibe2353]

Great video Jeff. Picking up subtle colors from your tie works regarding pocket squares. I've even rocked a monochromatic shirt and tie a couple of times . . . only rich darker colors.

[@TheStyleOG]

Salute!

[@jmorgan0829]

Love the polo shirt 👕. The color is a great color on you. Great STYLE tips!!, thanks for sharing your experiences growing up. LOVE the humor with ur video !!

[@TheStyleOG]

Thanks Sis !

[@izzythomas848]

Don't wear all of your statement pieces at once. They can "cancel each other out." Well said, Jeff. I unconsciously do this, but hearing it puts it into perspective. Thanks bro...

[@TheStyleOG]

No problem Izzy !

[@savvylifestrategies9445]

Great style tips, Jeff. I totally agree that casual clothes should also be tailored. Since most of us wear casual clothes more these days, I have been buying better quality casual shirts and shoes. To not break the bank, I shop the sales for high-quality brands likes Brooks Brothers and Allen Edmonds. Tip #15: Shop for quality brands, but buy on sale. Salute!

[@TheStyleOG]

Salute Lou !

[@slisyd]

I love oxblood i have them in whole cuts, cap toes, double monk straps and chelsea boots.

[@TheStyleOG]

Nice !

[@JonnySpectacular]

Listen to me now, believe me later on. I was one of those dudes that didn't know the power of the Chino, but the OG kept putting it out there. So I finally grabbed a pair and was blown away by feel and versatility. I been adding them to the collection, it's a nice switch up pitch.

[@TheStyleOG]

You heard the man !

[@miketindol1679]

Good tips!... Build your wardrobe around classic. The next step of progression for trendy is tacky.

[@TheStyleOG]

Thanks Mike !

[@charmedlife6933]

[@robertcachia6484]

Great style tips Jeff. When you find a shirt or pair of pants that fit really well buy two.

[@TheStyleOG]

Agreed!

[@montdiamonds5738]

A style mistake i made for years was thinking EVERYTHING had to match from head to toe and not realizing that some colors automatically compliment each other without looking like a garanimals outfit

[@TheStyleOG]

Been there Lamont !

[@Bnkerz]

Didn’t know about those Cedar inserts, I buy clothes too small still, and I go too hard on my trendy/loud pieces all the time. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@TheStyleOG]

Great Video as always. Thank you for the tip to take my casual clothing to the tailor . I appreciate that. Women usually won't buy something if it does not fit to the shape of our bodies. The thing I wish I knew earlier is this tip. I have passed up a lot of pieces I really liked and wanted because of the fit. Appreciate your channel HQOG. Thanks.

If you limit your use on the dry cleaners, is the iron and spray starch your best friend or you recommend a steamer? I love for my collars on all my shirts to be nice and crisp. Sometimes my iron just doesn’t cut it.

[@TheStyleOG]

Highly recommended a steamer
