Suit Up

A man in a suit is a timeless, classic look. No matter if you pair a suit jacket with jeans for a casual night out to dinner or go for an ultra formal tuxedo, there is a suit for every occasion.

Unless you are stuck in the 80s or headed to a retro-themed prom, steer clear of the dated double-breasted jacket. The two or three button jacket is the best investment when you purchase a suit. While most men can wear either, shorter men tend to look better in two button jackets. Taller men can get away with two or the more modern three button variety.

While we're on the subject of buttons, some people are confused as to which ones to close and which ones to leave open. A simple rule to remember, from top to bottom... always, sometimes, never. Unless you are seated, always have the top button of the jacket closed, no matter if two or three. You should usually keep the middle button on a three button suit closed as well. The bottom should always be open. Styles change as the years go by but a suit always suits any dressy to formal occasion.
