Thoughts on Men's Fashion // cuffed jeans

There are few things I appreciate more in life more than a well-dressed man (my family's well-being, Nora Ephron movies, and puppies being a few others of notable mention). I've said it before, but it doesn't take much for a man to look polished, sharp, and sexy. And sometimes it comes down to one thing in particular: a great fitting pair of jeans. Combine them with a manly pair of boots or loafers, and it's amazing what these two things can accomplish.

More recently, however, I've become an avid fan of one look in particular: the cuffed jean. This takes a man's look to a whole new level, whether he realizes it or not. The genius of it is that it's extremely fashionable but still rugged and manly–defying the stereotype that a fashionable man automatically looks "metro." He could be wearing a broken-in tee or hoodie and a worn pair of boots, and this simple styling trick ups the sex appeal like whoa. Shows he knows a thing or two. Or maybe he doesn't but at least he's willing to listen and take advice from someone who does know.

If any men are reading this, I highly recommend giving it a go.

If the guy in your life–be it boyfriend, brother, husband, son, etc.–is thinking of investing in a great pair of jeans, here are some of the best sources. I know some are a bit pricey, but I promise you it will pay off. ; )

BEST SOURCES FOR MEN'S JEANS:

jeans 1 | 2 | 3  //  shoes 1 | 2

jeans 4 | 5 | 6  //  shoes 3 | 4

Remember to go slim, slim straight, or straight fit in a dark wash. For best results, cuff the ankles with a single roll and serve.

Have to send a big thanks to Danny, Austin, and Pete who helped me w/ this one! I'm no expert at sourcing men's fashion outside of J.Crew, but these dudes know a thing or two.
