Guys, it may seem that ladies have so many more clothing options then you do. They have dresses, skirts, tights, boots, heels, and the list goes on. You are stuck with jeans, shirts and shoes.

There is so much that you can do with that! Guy’s trends are flexible and simple, and things rarely go out of style. Purchasing the right button-up can last you a few seasons. This way you can buy many pieces and have them last for quite some time! With the right fashionable top, you can update your style 100%. Check the tips below to learn how to purchase the right shirt that will make you look your best, whether you are going for a casual look or something more fancy.

First, lets talk about the power of a good v-neck. Every guy should own at least a white and black v-neck. They are absolutely essential knitwear for your wardrobe. They are easy to throw on, and paired with the right flannel or cardigan can give a very complete look. In the summertime, a good v-neck can go a long way.

Linen shirts are very popular in the summer. Colors such as light blue and red look amazing on and seem to go great with everyone’s complexion. They look fresh paired with shorts and boat shoes, maybe some Sperry’s. A perfect choice for a hot day.

Flannels are amazing for men in the fall. Flannels come in a variety of colors and styles. Whether you choose plain or checkered, either option gives that much more of a boost to your look, and makes you look up to date on the latest trends. You can rock a v-neck underneath your flannel to add more color or keep warm with layers.

Cotton button-up, collar shirts are great as well. They can be worn under sweaters or blazers. Adding a blazer with these shirts can make your outfit go from casual day to a more formal night look in seconds.

Cardigans are great, great, great investments! Every man should own a black and gray cardigan. You can wear them with any of the shirts listed above. Layering is very stylish, as well as can keep you warm. Cardigans do a great job pulling any look together.

As amazing as designer pieces may be, none of these articles have to be expensive! Stores such as H&M, Uniqlo and River Island in the UK have nice Oxford shirts, Winchester shirts, Dobby's, check and slim fits for reasonable, cheap prices. You can still look stylish and up-to-date without spending a fortune!

The right shirt can transform any outfit. There are tons of shirts that you can wear throughout the year, adding the appropriate seasonal accessories. Whether it is spring, summer, winter or fall you have a ton of options to stay on top of the trends and look your very best.

Your Questions Answered:
     *  How many open buttons are appropriate?
With a tshirt underneath you can get away with unbuttoning 4+. Without, it really depends on the guy - somewhere up to max 3 (but probably two in most cases). You should be fully buttoned up in a suit or to a formal work meeting though, with a tie on too.

     *  What sleeve length should I buy?
When considering sleeve length, choose long ones every time. That way you can scrunch or roll up the sleeves to the elbow for everyday use.
