How do I become more fashionable.. I'm a guy, and no... I'm not gay. But I wanna be more fashionable, but not like preppy fashionable.. just like being able to have a good sense of style.. I like all colors except like baby blue pink and pastelish colors... And my favorite kind of shoes are Vans Slip-ons.. and I have a pair to match all of my clothes so far.. but I just need some clothes that will look good on me, and will match... Could you suggest any stores that aren't preppy i.e. American Eagle, Abercrombie, etc.

shop around a bit and give some stores you havent been in a chance. Maybe take a girlfriend with you too. [ straightup's advice column | Ask straightup A Question ]
BitsandPieces answered Saturday April 14 2007, 10:25 pm: The best way to be stylish is to have your own classic sense of personal taste come through in all your clothing. You want to develop a signature look that is your own, but not entirely repetitive. A simple way to achieve this is to not be a slave to fashion or get stuck in a rut. Be attentive to how the clothing you have on your body and not someone else's looks. Does it compliment you, or contradict you? Is the color making you stand out, or is the color overwhelming you and standing out on its own. Don't write a store off entirely. Sometimes you will find one great item among a sea of dissapointments. Try everything on before you buy it. Buy less than you want to at first and give yourself time to really consider if you love something or it is an impulse buy. Don't be afraid to ask a stranger for their opinion on picking between two shirts for example, because most people will be happy to oblige. Every once in a while try on something totally different than you are used to, in order to keep your perspective fresh and avoid ruts. Have fun!
