In 2010, Harry Styles started as a cheeky wannabe singer on the platform of X Factor. But he has now been transformed into a full-fledged singer, and a fashion inspiration across the globe. His fashion transformation came as soon as he became a star in the world of music. Without any doubts, Harry styles has a wardrobe to die for. Cool retro, vintage, bohemian? Name it and he has surely nailed all these styles.

His voice is another asset which makes fans go crazy over him. Other artists whose voices and charm got them fame are Jimi Hendrix and Michael Jackson. These artists still live at the best online casino, Magicalvegas.com. At this mobile casino site, you can hear the songs and see the faces of these best singers of their time on Jimi Hendrix slot and Michael Jackson King of Pop slot. On Jimi Hendrix slot, you will find his famous guitar among other colourful symbols; this 20 paylines slot machine also comprises of features such as Click Me, Bonus Round and Free Spins. As for Michael Jackson King of Pop slot, this game will teleport you into a world which is shiny and glossy just like the gloves of the Moonwalk dancer.

However, Harry Styles rocks fashion better than any other singer. Saint Laurent shirts, Gucci suits alongside skinning scarves, ankle boots and skin-tight jeans suit Harry Styles. His impressive collection of outerwear such as shearling aviator jacket or painted bomber jacket only add to his charm. However, the One Direction member did not always flaunt this type of style. In his audition on X Factor, he wore a white shirt and grey cardigan. His hair was short and curly, which is very different from now.

During the X Factor series, he was seen mostly in joggings, coloured hoodies and gilets, accompanied by a suit for the Live shows. He slowly moved to stylish outfits after winning the X Factor competition. He started with a chic look which consisted of beanie hats, skinny jeans and white shirts. In 2013, Styles’ way of dressing started to grow into a style icon status. His original style shows individuality, and inspiration of his peers and fans of all age.

Now, we see him in brown leather jackets, collar shirts, slim tux jackets… which is more of a 60s-dressing style which makes him look hotter. His black pants are often seen patterned with endless type shirts. What is great about Harry Styles is that he keeps changing his look. For instance, in most of his current music videos, he is decked out in polka dot shirts, man jewellery, vintage shirts, leopard print knits, Saint-Laurent ankle boots, head scarves, checked shirts and trilby hats.

Some of his best worn outfits are: Lanvin red and black complete suit

Some of his best worn outfits are: Lanvin red and black complete suit for 2014 British Fashion Awards, Leopard shirt with skinny jeans for Burberry Runway Fun and White shirt and green jacket for Spring Summer 2013 Show. But we’re sure this will be changing!

It’s not every day that you get to see a male celebrity dressing up so preppy. Yet Ed does it and I want you too see it for yourself.

Ed Westwick (or, as you may know him, Chuck Bass from the TV series Gossip Girl) is an English actor and musician born in Stevenage Hertfordshire, UK in 1987.

That’s it with the facts, I’m sure you’re more interested in his photos than his performances in Gossip Girl, right?

OK, here we go.

The first photo shows Mr. Westwick wearing an awesome camel coat, a charcoal gray suit, dark brown shoes and black gloves. A striped shirt and a patterned dark tie complete his outfit.

Did you spot which rule he broke in this outfit? He’s wearing black gloves with brown shoes. It’s usually not a good idea to wear black and brown in the same outfit, unless you can make it look good. Otherwise, you’ll be just like every other guy who’s randomly throwing black and blue on him.

A stylish outfit overall, nevertheless.

This second outfit is less about the clothes and more about his haricut:

Really cool haircut.

This next one is also really good, as it was part of a GQ photo shoot:

You may be wondering how can those two patterns work together? They seem to have nothing in common.

That may be true but the thing that binds the shirt and tie together is actually color. They’re both black.

Since they already have that in common, Ed (or, rather, GQ) decided to put together 2 totally different patterns… and it worked!

This next outfit has a lot of color in it – I’m not sure you’re willing to wear it. Nevertheless, it teaches a valuable lesson on how purple, yellow and white work well together.

If you want you can start with navy blue or black, the add just a touch of yellow and purple. This way you’ll be on the safe side, yet still wear a stylish color combination.

Let’s take a look at the next one. Notice anything strange?

Yep – Ed is taking things one step further (as you should too!) and he’s wearing 2 (that’s “two”) shirts at once!

This is very rare and you need some balls to do it. Yet Ed does a wonderful job (and I’m sure that his fame also helps him to get away with it).

I really like this next outfit because of it’s casual nature:

Ed is really trying to stand out from the crowd. Check him out wearing a plaid suit:

If there’s one thing you should be careful with when wearing a plaid suit, it’s fit. Such suits are synonymous with older men so you have to do your best to erase that vibe. A slim fit plaid suit is 10 times better than one with a regular fit.

I don’t really like wearing red and pink in large quantities, yet Ed looks pretty darn good in this attire:

Let’s continue with another well put together outfit from the GQ collection:

Johnny Depp’s Style Secrets Exposed [PICTURES] https://bestylish.org/style-icons/johnny-depps-style-secrets-exposed-pictures/ Sun, 15 Jan 2012 12:35:23 +0000 https://event-traveller.com:8090/preview/bestylish.org/blog/?p=2767 I can’t believe I didn’t write this article sooner.

I can’t believe I didn’t write this article sooner. I can’t imagine how Be Stylish, a mature men’s style blog, didn’t have a page dedicated to one of the hottest Hollywood actors.. who also happens to be the worlds’d most famous men style icon.

I think one of the funniest stories I ever head about Johnny was when this school girl wrote to “Jack Sparrow” (the name of the character he plays in Pirates of the Caribbean).

She wrote to him that she and her colleagues got sick of their teachers and that they’re planning to start a mutiny. Just like pirates, who rebel against taxes social norms. At the end of the letter, she (obviously) wrote down her school where she was studying.

You’ll never guess what happened. Jack Sparrow (or Johnny Depp, cause they’re the same thing) decided to pay her a visit… while wearing the full costume of the most famous pirate character in the world.

How cool is that?

Well, I’m not going to post any pictures of that costume… I’m sure you already know it. Instead, I’ll show you some of the hottest outfits Johnny has ever worn… and comment them from a style perspective.

By the end of this article, you’ll not only think he’s a great movie star but also that he dresses really really well.

His unique style…

Johnny Depp chooses a really relaxed casual look. He wears a lot of t-shirts but compensates with many accessories.

Let the show begin!

Outfit #1: brown t-shirt, grey hat

We’re starting off with this apparently simple outfit… if you don’t count the tattoo and the accessories, that is.

The t-shirt isn’t much and I’m sure you could get one yourself right now.

But what about the hat? Would you wear one? Mixing black and dark-brown isn’t such a great idea but mixing GREY an brown can make you look damn hot!

And what about the wrist watch? The brown leather strap matches the t-shirt and gives him that “I’m a busy man” look, along with the glasses.

But that “good guy” look is quickly toned down by the tattoos on both his arm and the rest of the accessories.

The interesting thing about this is that no single item of clothing stands out – yet the overall look is amazing.

Outfit #2: Johnny in a brown leather jacket and wearing a green scarf

I’m sorry I don’t have the full attire but, even so, we have a lot to learn about matching colors from this second outfit.

Breakdown: light-brown jacket, green scarf, grey hat and glasses with purple lens. Don’t forget the 2 rings on his right hand.

The trio brown-green-purple works well together but it all depends on the quantity. If you’re afraid you’ll screw up, just finish the outfit with greys (grey chinos, grey shoes, a light-grey t-shirt etc.)

Neutral colors are your lifeguard when you’re playing around with colors.

Outfit #3: lots and lots of bracelets

Well, you don’t have to wear them if you don’t like them. The thing is, once you’ll reach a certain point in your style evolution, you’ll begin to love certain clothes and accessories… and there’s no doubt Johnny Depp is in love with bracelets.

Outfit #4: a white shirt and a black vest

Outfit #5: Johnny Depp in a white t-shirt, jeans and lots of accessories

The lesson here is simple. You can wear the most generic item of clothing possible (such as a white t-shirt) and look unbelievable.

Outfit #6: black sports jacket, black and white striped shirt and a brown hat

Outfit #7: khaki trench khaki hat, black t-shirt and pendants

Outfit #8: Light-gray blazer, a black shirt and pendants

Outfit #9: Grey and whit jacket with an orange top

Outfit #10: Charcoal grey sports jacket with orange and grey shirt

Outfit #11: White shirt and hat

Outfit #12: Brown leather jacket and blue shirt wrapped araound waist

Outfit #13: Brown sports coat, t-shirt and hat

Outfit #14: Light-brown sports coat and blue polo shirt

Outfit #15: Black pinstripe suit with a blue striped shirt

Outfit #16: Brown sports coat with a blue shirt

Outfit #17: Rugged jeans, brown hat and black shirt

Style Icon: Matt Bomer https://bestylish.org/style-icons/style-icon-matt-bomer/ Thu, 20 Oct 2011 22:24:28 +0000 https://event-traveller.com:8090/preview/bestylish.org/blog/?p=2433 Whether you’ve watched the White Collar TV series or not, you’ll have a lot to learn from this series’ main character: Matt Bomer (a.k.a Nick Caffrey on the show).

Whether you’ve watched the White Collar TV series or not, you’ll have a lot to learn from this series’ main character: Matt Bomer (a.k.a Nick Caffrey on the show). If elegance is what you’re looking for, rest assured you’ll find plenty of inspiration throughout Matthew’s lookbook.

Outfit #1

Let’s start with my absolute favorite: a picture of Matt wearing a tie clip, a hat and a pocket square.

What I love most about this outfit is that, because the contrast is not very strong, the three classic accessories are getting all the attention.

Here’s what I mean. If Matt was wearing a shirt in a bold color (such as yellow or green) with a pattern (such as vertical stripes or checks) and a colored pocket square… it would have been too much for him.

Obviously, for a TV character, he couldn’t have distracted the viewer’s attention from the screenplay by wearing outfits that are too bold but…

… it’s up to YOU and only you to decide how much you want to stand out. Just make sure before you do that, that the FIT is perfect. If you’re wearing outfits that aren’t your size, the last thing you want is to have everyone’s eyes on you.

Before we move on to the next outfit, there is one style rule that Matt didn’t follow in this photo. Did you spot it?

It’s the shirt’s cuff, of course! It should be spotted from beneath the suit jacket. If this is your case as well, this means that either the shirt’s sleeves are too short, that the suit jacket is too long or both.

Outfit #2

While this outfit isn’t as bold as the previous one, you can see in action a very old formal style rule: if you’re wearing a white shirt, the pocket square should be white as well.

But that’s not all. notice how the dark-gray suit has some black on it. This black matches perfectly with the silk tie. This sort of match can be hard to achieve because it’s hard to find suits like these.

Outfit #3

It was hard for me to find a casual outfit of Matt but, nevertheless, here it is.

Truth be told, I’m a little disappointed because of the lack of color but I DO like the fedora and the glasses. They give him a mysterious air which you can have as well if you’re willing to try this combination.

OK, these are the last of his photos. What do you think of Matt’s style? Do you think he’s too boring? Or, maybe, he’s a great inspiration as far as business outfits are concerned?

“Style Icon Raoul Bova” or “How to Keep It Simple” https://bestylish.org/style-icons/style-icon-raoul-bova-or-how-to-keep-it-simple/ Mon, 17 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0000 https://event-traveller.com:8090/preview/bestylish.org/blog/?p=1379 I just had to do an article on men style icons. The reason is very simple:there are certain men that simply are fashion heroes, when you pass them in the street you can’t help turning your head over and gazing like hypnotized.

I just had to do an article on men style icons. The reason is very simple:there are certain men that simply are fashion heroes, when you pass them in the street you can’t help turning your head over and gazing like hypnotized.

For this, I’ve chosen Italian actor Raoul Bova.

photo:http://attentialcine.blogosfere.it

Outside of his native Italy, Raoul Bova fits that status perfectly. He is the star of many Italian box office blockbusters like Comincio Tutto Per Caso and La Finestra Di Fronte. We, the rest of the world know him best  as Marcello from Under The Tuscan Sun, or Sebastian De Rosa, the archaeologist from Alien vs. Predator.

So what are his secrets? First of all, he doesn’t like to trade tradition for passing fashion trends. Bova wears bespoke suits, not tight ones. The cut is fuller than you might expect,but still it clings close enough to compliment his body frame . Details like peak lapels appear classic yet new again, diminishing the need for any other accouterments. The color of choice is the classic black.

In the picture below, you can see him sticking to the above rules:

photo: zimbio.com

When he is less formal, his color of choice is white, which is a wise decision, considering his darker skin complexion. The Mediterranean gene pool surely helped him a lot.

photo: yimg.com

The picture above shows him in the movie Under The Tuscan Sun.

He sometimes wears black shirts, and theysuit him really well.

photo:http://www.natrusso.it

Can I dress like him ?

Absolutely! Just remember the number one rule he likes to apply: don’t over-complicate things. Just keep it simple, and your style will be top notch.

Let’s analyze the following attire, taken from an Italian magazine :

photo:http://images2.fanpop.com

Nothing too fancy, right? He keeps it very simple: a blazer, white shirt, black belt with an oval belt buckle and blue jeans. The white shirt is a very good choice, as I was telling you, because it creates good contrast with his hair color and skin complexion.

So remember: keep it simple, don’t try to impress too much and you might end up the next style icon featured here on Be Stylish!
