Any man can look fantastic with thousands of dollars in custom tailoring and wardrobe consulting. But can a man on a budget pull it off? All the guys out there wants to have a damn rich look but finding great outfits too costlier but for that now you can invest your money into versatile and quality basics.

A little tip for you guys .. you don’t need to own expensive things to look expensive! Whether it’s wearing the perfect shades or getting your trousers tailored, there are plenty of tips and tricks you can do to appear more effortless and expensive! Today we’ll be sharing with you some tips to look expensive !

Rich look doesn’t mean trendy stuff

One of the worst things about trend is that it doesn’t last long. You may buy an outfit that is very sexy but you won’t be able to wear it the next season as it will be looking so-last-season.

What was cool last season, is usually an abomination this season, and to keep up with all that you have to invest an important amount of money and of course time.

Get Clothes To Fit Right

Rich men wear bespoke – or at the very least, made-to-measure. What sets them apart most visibly, even at a distance, is how well their clothes fit. Mid-range, off-the-rack clothing can and will look high-end if you nail the fit.

You see this way to often, the "bad fit", and never enough of "good fits".  Its fine If your over weight, go for it, but … | Well dressed men, Mens  outfits, Menswear

Many department stores and big-box men’s retailers have in-store sewing services. Don’t rely on them. For the level of quality, personal service, and attention to detail that a rich man expects, you need to build a relationship with a local tailor. Take everything you wear to him. If that means you can afford fewer clothes, that’s fine – a small wardrobe of clothes that fit will make you look richer than all the ill-fitting clothes in the world.

Avoid Obvious Branding

Brand names can carry a certain prestige. However, you want to avoid becoming a walking billboard. Having large logos and brand names on your clothes, especially on jackets, cheapens the overall look.

Avoid branding anywhere on a suit or sports jacket (good quality jackets will have all of the branding inside and hidden. Favor casual attire with modest branding (think about the difference between a Lacoste alligator on a polo and a huge The North Face logo on a T-shirt…which one are you more likely to wear to dinner?)

Thriving on details

If you want to look expensive and feel awesome you need to keep a close eye on details. When it comes to wardrobe and overall behavior you need to look the part. Regardless of whether you are rich or on your way to the top, details are the little things that separate the confident from the anxious.

Looking rich will not be possible without these small tokens of perfection that put the finishing touches on the image you have worked so hard for.

– Grooming – Clothes alone won’t help you with your expensive look. You need a nice haircut and a good shave. If you want to hang on to your beard then make sure it’s well taken care of and trim it regularly. There are lots of beard shampoo brands and various other products, that will help you keep your beard looking like a million bucks. Remember there is such a thing as too much beard for people that want to look rich. Also, don’t forget to take care of your skin and use moisturizing products.

– Dress for the occasion – Of course, you know not to wear the same outfit on your business meetings as you do on your mall runs. It is not all about when to wear your best shoes, but instead about how not to go overboard on ‘special occasions’. It is perfectly OK to dress expensive but sometimes dressing accordingly takes precedent.
Try to go for casual suits with no tie or more relaxed outfits when shopping, on dates, or when traveling. Rich people know how to dress for the part, so in doing the same your image will benefit greatly.

– Exercise – Hitting the gym is not just the universal remedy the entire internet is going to point you to for all your problems. In this case, it will truly make a difference. People that dress to look expensive usually have a physical shape to match. It will enhance your self-confidence, energy, and determination. And let’s face it, good fitting clothes look much better on fit people. This is one detail, rich people understand very well and you should too.

Selection and Styles

We’ll discuss strategies for shopping on a budget in a minute, but here’s the reality of all of them: the selection isn’t as good as it is when money’s not an object.

That shouldn’t come as a huge surprise, and it isn’t a huge obstacle. You just have to accept that you’re not going to be able to constantly rotate through the latest hot trends when you’re also trying to save money. The latest thing always costs more than last year’s thing, even if it’s functionally identical.

So if you can’t expect to stay on top of the latest trends, what should your expectations for thrifty shopping be?

You should expect — and hold out for — decently-made clothes in good enough shape to last you several years. You should also expect clothes in a classic style that can be paired with pieces from many different styles, rather than a unified look. Bargain shopping is all about putting disparate pieces together into a sharp-looking whole.

Don’t count on finding something every time you go looking for clothes. In fact, plan on coming home empty-handed more often than not. But if you can hold back from purchasing anything but the best wardrobe additions, you can expect to eventually have a flexible, versatile wardrobe that can combine in dozens of different ways depending on your needs.

Less is more and, therefore, only wear a few discreet pieces of jewelry. A nice watch is a very important accessory to go by even if it isn’t a Rolex or Cartier Tank.

Buy good quality shoes

The shoes that you wear define your entire outfit. On that account, you just can’t ignore what you wear down.

When choosing your shoes, always try to choose pairs with minimal styles so that you are able to combine most of your pairs with different outfits.

You should never be afraid to spend a little extra on quality shoes. If you have a limited budget, you can try and invest in at least one really good pair, in which you will look both rich and well dressed.

Cologne and perfume

No one can ignore the way someone smells, especially when it’s remarkable.

But less is good in men’s case.

A man shouldn’t be using too much perfume. However, this depends actually on where you are, for example in some European countries like France, a man can smell colognes remarkably, and it is completely fine.

The advice here, if you can’t afford a real pricey perfume, you should go with the mysterious case. Which means, don’t smell anything at all, unless it is top cleanliness.

Keep your items super clean

If you want to dress well and look rich, you must keep your items as clean as new.

For example, you should have different brushes for a specific use like suits for a specific type of cloth, and the same thing for shoes, and they certainly will coast you nothing.

Besides, you have to be careful about the way you wash your clothes, don’t keep them for a long time in the washing machine for instance, so not to be wasted.

Sometimes you can use own hands to gently wash your clothes, especially when it is a good quality shirt you spent extra money on.
