Show Summary:

In this episode, Kylie & Jonathan and I explore the role of clothing and style in dating. We start out by discussing what your clothes communicate about you to others as well as how they impact your own self-image and performance. That’s right, studies have shown that clothes can actually impact how you perform on tests, in sports, and in other situations!

The key takeaways are that by being well put together, you communicate that you are likely have rest of your life in order. However, the goal of personal style is to communicate a message about your true identity rather than to just look fancy. Being very showy, if that is not a reflection of who you really are, can be interpreted as narcissistic and insecure.

In the latter part of the episode, Kylie & Jonathan provide some practical tips for selecting your clothes. They talk about fit, then they talk about fit again (hint, hint) as well as about colors, patterns, accessories and the staples that every man should have in his closet.

To wrap up, they provide their thoughts on going custom and when it doesn’t make sense to do so.

Advice:

Lots of practical tips for selecting your clothes.
