PROJECT UPGRADE: A GQ STYLE INTERVENTION

GQ’s fashion editors take to the streets and grab six dudes who could use a little bit—okay, a lot—of style help

In a world of puffy dress shirts, oversize suits, and clunky square-toed lace-ups, there’s plenty of room for improvement. GQ hit the streets of New York and found six real men with real problems—and supplied them with advice any guy can learn from.

10 TIES X 10 SHIRTS = 100 FOOLPROOF OPTIONS
You don’t need dozens upon dozens of shirts and ties if you know how to pair them

The key to building a wardrobe is maximum compatibility. These shirts and ties all go perfectly with each other.

it's not recommended to roll up jeans/chinos especially for those who are typically not that tall.. it shouldn't be too bad provided the pants itself is slim/skinny cut =)

anyway here's a great way to roll up your chinos:

There's simply just too many Malaysians who jump into conclusion that a dress shirt (which is the proper term for the widely used formal shirt) or a dress pant is considered formal, when they are actually not.. A single piece of clothing by itself does make the entire outfit formal, its all the right pieces together.. Similarly, a person who's wearing a dress shirt, necktie, suit jacket (yes, the jacket is called a suit jacket and not just suit) and jeans, does that make the look formal? It's not about a single piece, but all the pieces together..

simple illustration of dress codes:
