5 Accessories That Make Men More Attractive


As you might already know, accessories are what sets you and your style apart from other men. If you take two guys with the exact same, well-fitted stylish clothes, both look good. But if the other one knows how to accessorize, he will look spectacular.

The accessory selection nowadays is so wide, that the options for styling up an outfit are limitless. That's the beauty of it; with all the variety in the world, it is easy to combine and create the perfect and exclusive set for you. That's how you make your style unique since the odds are that no-one is wearing the exact same combo of accessories.

All the accessories might not suit everyone's style, but some accessories will make you look instantly more attractive. And who wouldn't want to look more attractive! Now we are going to go over five accessories that will make you look better instantly.

5. Watches

The first accessory that makes you instantly more attractive is a good quality watch. Why would you need a watch for checking the time when you have your smartphone always within the reach of your hand? Well, as the saying goes – boys look at their smartphones to check time – men look at their watch.

When you wear a watch – it’s less likely you will fall back on your phone as a distraction. Often, checking the phone for time results in a rabbit-trail of activities including checking every messenger app, email, and Facebook. A quick glance towards your wrist is a much classier way to keep tabs on time during a date or a meeting. Not to mention how rude it would seem to your companions if you pulled out your phone during a conversation. On other occasions where it’s advisable to leave the phone concealed – like the beach, a funeral, a wedding, a watch is a much more subtle and convenient way to check time.

In addition to helping wearers stick to their schedules, wristwatches make it easier for them to display their sense of style. They are a form of self-expression – reflecting the wearer's lifestyle. Watches can communicate a lot about the wearer’s personality. Today there's so much variety in styles and designs of wristwatches, that everyone will find a timepiece to their liking. What's so great about watches, is that everyone can rock one regardless of their style. Wearing a watch is a great way to add interest to an outfit.

4. Hats

Accessory number four is a cool hat. If you step out of your comfort zone and try rocking a hat you are going to be dazzled and utterly amazed at the response you get. Not a lot of people have the confidence to pull off a hat. If you do, which you should, that means you rock! Whether you’re wearing a classic baseball cap or a dapper fedora, hats are the perfect topper for any outfit.

Hats tend to be more of a statement piece than a subtle accessory. Maybe you want to instantly add a whole dose of personality to any outfit? You wear a hat to keep your head warm on a chilly day? Or maybe you’re wearing a hat to cover a bad hair day? Either way, hats are a great way to take your style game from 0 to 100.

When wearing any hat, remember to be a gentleman. When in a home, restaurant, or part of a larger building that is not a hallway or lobby, take your hat off. When the national anthem of any country is being played, sung, or professionally hummed, take your hat off.

Let's look at a couple of the most commonly used hats:

The Cap / Dad Hat

The number one most important thing when it comes to wearing caps is to wear one that fits well. There’s nothing worse than a floppy or top-tight flat cap. Find a hat that doesn’t have too much excess fabric on the flat top. It should not be ballooning, but rather just fall casually. The cap itself should fit just above your ears.

Wear a cap with modern clothes to spruce up your more laid-back appearance. Avoid wearing it with more dated clothing, like bow-ties or suspenders. This can make the outfit look a little too stuffy if not thought out carefully!

Like dad jeans and polo shirts, this a little confusing trend has popped up, and it is called a dad hat. As of recently, everyone has been rocking a dad hat. Dad hats aren’t like your regular baseball cap. Generally, they’re unstructured (so no extra padding in the front, similar to a fitted cap), made of cotton, and are typically all one color.

If you’re going to wear a dad hat, wear it with something equally as laid back, chinos or black denim are a great option. Staple jackets and motif sweatshirts are a great topper. Lastly, keep your look consistently laid back with a trainer.

The Fedora

A fedora hat is known for being cool, classic, and ultimately, a timeless accessory item for men. Fedoras have a bad rep, over the past decade, they’ve been pulled off poorly by rock stars and golfers alike. But behold, you can pull off a fedora well!

In order to look classy, if the color is anything other than black, grey, olive, brown, beige, white, navy, or tan, it’s a bad idea. Remember that when pairing hat color to jacket color they have to either match nearly perfectly or contrast to some degree. A navy hat that’s two shades lighter than a navy jacket looks terrible, but a medium grey over that same jacket can look amazing.

Pair a fedora with a suit or blazer to instantly up your dapper factor. Being more of a winter wardrobe addition, play around with layers consistently through your outfit. Pick a fedora with a wider brim to add a masculine edge to the topper.

The Beanie

The beanie is the perfect winter accessory. Not only does it keep your head warm, but it’s a great suave, casual topper for any outfit. Pick a lightweight knit for the warmer days, or a heavier weave for colder ones. One of the best parts of a beanie is that they match everything. Toss one on with jeans and a t-shirt to run errands, or pair with a more formal look to add a little edge.

You can wear a beanie in several ways. Keep it unfolded and slip it on just behind your ears for a casual, more bohemian feel. For a more street look, fold up the brim once or twice and wear like a toque.

One thing to remember; although beanies are a great staple hat, they can ruin any man’s hair. If you’re removing your beanie inside, take a pit stop in the restroom to double check to see if your hair is in place. On the flipside, if the weather is treacherous outside, slip a beanie on over your hair to protect any styling!

Your Quick Guide on How to Wear a Hat

  • Confidence is key when pulling off a hat. Well, pretty much when pulling off anything.
  • Maintain good manners when using a hat. Know when it's inappropriate and appropriate to wear it.
  • Look after your hats, especially when storing them. The better looked after, the longer they last.

3. Bracelets

If clothing is cake, jewelry is icingA trend that has been hot for a while now and for a good reason: men's bracelets! Wearing bracelets is something that every guy doesn't do - but everyone who's in the know of today's fashion trends does.

Stacking bracelets is the name of the game when it comes to men's accessories. Today's trend is to wear more than one bracelet on one's wrist and combine different materials and styles to create a mix that fits perfectly and uniquely to your style. 

While some men may be reluctant to wear jewelry, some men do it very well and know that accessories are what makes the difference between an outfit being "nice" or "fantastic". Relaxed, laidback and playful, bracelets are the type of jewelry that every man can wear without feeling overdone or out of place. Be it casual or dressy occasions, different bracelets can lend distinction – allowing you to stand out in the simplest of ways.

2. Suit Accessories

Even if you don't wear suits on a daily basis, there are important occasions in every mans life when a suit is the only appropriate choice of outfit. And when those moments come, you want to be ready to look top notch. There is a huge difference in whether your suit is accessorized or not. Even if you have invested in a quality, well-fitting suit (which you should), it can't be at its best if you've totally left out all the accessories. 

Double Pocket Squares - Classy Men Collection

The classical choice is to go with a simple tie and pocket square. Be ready to be playful with the color and pattern combinations. Complementary colors look great when paired up. Try for example a purple tie and green pocket square, or blue tie and orange pocket square. If you are not comfortable with wearing bright colors as an outfit detail, you can choose neutral colors too and still keep the outfit classy and defined. Just make sure that your tie and pocket square is not the same exact color and pattern. If you want to be extra fancy, try wearing double pocket squares. Pair one with a neutral color to one with a brighter color or interesting pattern, and you are on top of the pocket square game!

If you want to stand out in a crowd, choose a bow tie instead of a tie. There are just as many different colors and patterns and materials for bow ties as there is for ties. You are guaranteed get more compliments with an eye-catching bow tie than a regular tie!

There is one accessory that has the ability, the power, to transform you handsome, take you from a five-and-a-half to like an eight by a blink of an eye. What is it? It's a perfectly fitting pair of glasses! If you are wearing glasses, invest in a stylish pair that frames your face. The difference between well and badly fitting glasses is huge. If you are not wearing glasses, you can get non-prescription glasses to spark up your look.
