Its not like I go on dates looking like a hobo, I just wear jeans and a T
Do girls take notice about how a guy dresses?
What kinda girls are we talking about? Every girl is just as different as every guy. I have known girls who think that a suit, tie, loafers, and Bowler hat is just the epitome of sexiness. I have known other girls who find that kind of a getup to be the epitome of lame.
Some girls will only date a man who can rock the most expensive business suits.
Some girls will only date a man with cowboy boots and Wrangler jeans.
Then, there are the girls who get wet for a man in uniform.
So, how do I recommend that you dress up? Trick question. A real man doesn't "dress up".
I strongly advise you to be yourself in every aspect. Sure, you could don a suit that would make Al Capone jealous, and you could instantly become sexually attractive to a lot of women.
You could spend $400 on the finest Rattle Snake Skin Cowboy boots, and $300 on the nicest Stetson Cowboy hat that's ever been made, and instantly become sexually attractive to hoards of women who previously found you to be repulsive.
But if you don't feel comfortable in your own clothes, and if you don't like the way you look, then the reality is that you will only look like a jackass.
Me personally, I find a few women who love my classic look: Strest shoes or work boots, Walmart blue jeans, Walmart T shirts, and a fitted baseball cap turned backwards.
Just remember, only punk rockers are attracted to torn, dirty, ratty clothes. When your clothes wear out, buy new ones.
It's called dressing like a man, not dressing like a slob.
I think most people who dress up are probably more attracted to someone else who dresses up. And someone who dresses down is more attracted to someone else who dresses down.
But I've also seen a lot of exceptions to this. So it's really just depends on the two people. You can just ask her. If she says the way you dress is fine, try to read between the lines if she really means it or not. Or you can just go ahead and dress better if you want.
Personally I wouldn't dress up for anyone or any reason. Not for a girl, a job, or any other reason. But if you don't mind doing it, sure, give it a try. If you are totally a casual dresser like me, and you don't like doing it, then you need to find out if it bothers her or not.
Ya, I hate how most guys dress these days. Put a little effort into it, we do too.
Girls notice how a guy dresses, so get nice good quality clothes for the first few dates at least and for going out in general. There are many styles that go, but just jeans and t shirt...
Don't get me wrong, if you have a good body it's a good look for at home or anything casual but not a date or going out in any way. T shirts are underwear.
I like the sweater with shirt underneath style

You can dress it up and down depending on where you go, simply by switching the shirt
All those guys look great too

The thing you have to understand is that women dress up because we care and we , wrongly, assume that you care too. Most men don't care however, they just care if they outfit show your figure or not. The thing is dressing up usually doesn't hurt your chances, not dressing up does.
Have a look at the abercrombie and fitch/ Hollister look books they do a great job at putting outfits together that are preppy, elegant and yet not too formal. And their clothes are pretty generic so you can buy them from everywhere. Same for JCrew or Ralph Lauren
Thanks this helps heaps!
Rawrzz, they're also the ones that bring home the bacon.
I dress like these guys lol though instead of dress pants I wear nice jeans coupled with like cardigans and Aran shirts, sweaters which are the best in the world and made exclusively in the Emerald Isles of Ireland and my flat caps are actually authentic Irish tweed made in Ireland.
@creativitymogul I do agree they look classy and wealthy. And that's a good thing. And @Rawrzz ya it's preppy, you say it as if it was a bad thing. Dressing well doesn't make you a rapist. And I knew this was gonna an unpopular opinion because I know a lot of people these day have an aversion to putting effort into how they dress. I miss the 50s where a man would put on a three piece suit and a hat just to bring out the garbage
@Phoenix98 Well good for you. Do you mean the sweaters from the Aran Islands? I do like them too, but they do have very coarse knitting so not good for every occasion. But I suppose they're warm and comfy and not everyone has one
@creativitymogul I guess you're right. But only because their parents are rich pricks who got lucky, many times through racism or stabbing people in the back in business. But, I guess the money would make them desirable to a lot of females.
It's not about not putting effort into how you dress. Your implication that only preps put effort into dressing is as flawed as your gold-digger preference. A suit is different from these pretentious outfits. That's a good word for the look instead of preppy: pretentious. Ostentatious.
@Rawrzz I didn't say all guys have to dress like that, I said that's what I like. And it IS a save choice for most men. Surely a guy in a leather jacket can look hot too, but that is a very specific type and on many it just looks ridiculous. And it also does have the kinda bad boy vibe. It depends on how you want to be seen an clothes have a great impact on that. No way denying.
I think all those guys look nice and stable. You don't have to be loaded to afford clothes like that
You don't need to be loaded to buy clothes like that.
Ugh. Fair enough. I just don't like most guys like that, I guess. They seem indoctrinated, greedy, selfish, excessively supercilious, and just generally jerks. Might not all be like that, but I think that's their reputation--guys like those in the second pic. The first guy's clothes look better: like a college professor or something. Never been bullied or anything, just how I see it.
Ya the ones from the Aran Islands, I agree they are not a every occasion piece of clothing, their cardigans are a little easier to wear though since they go over other clothes. And I miss the 40s-50s to men knew how to dress back then, that tone period is actually what I bade my own wardrobe after.
Girls do notice how guys dress for sure. Especially on a date it would should he cares just an extra bit and it's sweet. I don't think you *should* do anything you don't want to though. People look best in what they are most comfortable and happy in (it shows). But these are just some suggestions if you're interested...
I suggest H&M as a place to buy clothes for guys, or one place at least. I would definitely invest in a nice jacket and coat. Peacoat's are put together looking. Some sweaters are pretty universal and can go with a lot. On a nice date try wearing a collared shirt, jeans are fine unless it's a really nice restaurant.
Here are some great examples of causal style:

It's sad that I'm not really understanding what u mean by "dressing up." When I think dressing up, I think either suit & tie, or just below that. My bf always looks nice, but what gets me is... he wears the same thing every single time I see him. I can literally name his whole outfit right now from top 2 bottom. Blue plaid collared shirt, brown khaki shorts or dark jeans, black knee socks pulled all the way up, and gray Vans. That's it, every day. That's a casual look 2 me, except for the knee socks of course.

Jeans and a t-shirt is fine to me because that's how I typically dress. My boyfriend way out classes me when he dresses. He's always so put together and I'm like, "Look! This shirt is clean! So are these pants! Yay, an outfit!" But when we both dress up we are one fine looking couple lol
Yes, we do notice. Adding a simple blazer, or just wearing a dress shirt--short or long--tucked into your pants--dress pants or jeans-- with a belt, it'll really make an impact. Doesn't have to be anything crazy. Just don't go on dates with a normal t-shirt. Its TOO casual and shows her that you're not willing to put in the effort and time to get ready for her. Seeing the little bit of effort you make, such as a blazer, dress shirt, even a leather jacket, will show her how special she is. And that you're both putting in an effort to show the other person you care. Reciprocating.
They should look clean and they should look like they put a little bit of effort into their looks and if you are hot and toned or whatever you should just go for this look: s8.favim.com/.../...-boy-cute-Favim.com-678119.jpg
Lolz but guys should dress nice like this:s2.favim.com/.../...-lookbook-Favim.com-261140.jpg
You should dress however but not like your a dirty stoner.
Ahahhahhaha. Yeah but theyre hot as fuck on a guy.. lolz. do what you want. If a girl likes you for you, she won't care what you wear
I agree, but watch out for douchebag material when they dress like that... just keep it in mind.
I don't dress to impress like a lot of people do. I just dress normally and maybe it's a little baggy the shirt and pants, but I should maybe start dressing more slim fit type shirts. My friend was talking to me about this and how I should buy hollister and Ralph Lauren and North Face. I have wore this and dressed to impress once and a few people told me I look fresh, stunning and like a rich millionaire. My thing is it shouldn't matter on that if someone is 'attractive' or 'dateworthy'. Same deal with cars.
You should dress in things that are casual but yet have a classic/classy feel to them, Cardigans, Aran shirts, sweaters ( best sweaters in the world made exclusively in the Emerald Isles of Ireland ) nice T-Shirts, jeans etc . I often go out sporting a authentic Irish tweed flat cap made in Ireland with a nice T-shirt, jeans and a belt, I also wear a sort of casual formal zip down jacket that only zips down to the upper chest with a flannel shirt that goes well underneath tucked in with jeans and my cap. Its casual but it looks nice if I want to dress up even further I can switch out the jeans and use black dress pants with the flannel shirt, jacket combo to give it a more formal looks. These are just things that are mostly casual in nature but look good and , classic/classy when used together that give you a better and more formal look while remaining comfortable.
Something clean is good. Maybe a nice jacket and collared shirt when going on a date to somewhere upmarket. But otherwise, just dress normally. She wouldn't be going out with you if she wasn't happy with the way you are now. Girls don't expect you to dress up too much.
Yes, girls notice. They like it when you put in more effort. Personally I don;t care too much depending on where we are going and how I am dressed. If I look really good I'd hope my date does too. Does that make sense?
that makes sense but she dresses well all the time and I compliment her on the date and she say its nothing
by the way thanks for responding!!
Maybe you could ask her "what should I wear?" in kind of a joking manner and maybe she'll respond honestly.
yeah I might just try that lol
YES. How a guy dresses dictates his maturity.
Be yourself, but put effort in how you look... And for guys, it takes such minimal effort to look good in comparison to girls.
So maybe instead of a t-shirt you wear a casual button down. Wear some boots or nice leather shoes. Do not wear slides or basketball shoes.
Nope girls always put mega effort into going on a date its an attraction thing the better we look the more attracted the man is. Never change who you are for anyone ever she obv likes you or she wouldn't be dating you if you change it may put her off because she likes you the way you are.
Most girls expect guys to dress like models because most girls actually DO dress like models. However, there are girls like me who don't have time to catch up with fashion trends (So i prefer guys who match my effortless look). If you date a simply-dressed girl, you may dress simple. However, if your girls dresses like a celebrity on the red carpet, at least dress like a presentable gentleman.
Eh, depends. I don't need a guy that dresses great. I kinda prefer a guy that doesn't put in that much effort, typically a t-shirt and jeans kinda guy. My boyfriend typically puts into no effort, which is fine but sometimes I would prefer for him to just put in a bit of work, just to show that he cares. But that's yet to happen lol
Well tux would be over kill. Under kill might be dirty jeans and raggy t-shirt. If you are going out just for a coke, jeans and clean t-shirt or similar with nice pair of shoes is fine. If it is more formal, buddy, you got to dress for it, maybe social then. Yes, on any case, you got to dress with a little more effort, unless you are going to play paint-ball, and I doubt most girls would like that for a date.
I don't really care. I'm definitely one of those girls who like to make a fantastic outfit everyday, but I don't expect it from any of my SOs. The first guy I dated was really outdoorsy and didn't give two craps to appearance and that's okay, because guys can be kind of bumby an it's still socially acceptable. But as a girl who like to dress nice I don't really expect if back, because dressing nice is a personal hobby of mine and it doesn't have to be your hobby also
YES, most girls want to have someone who dresses well-- equally as good or better. You should make the effort if you enjoy how she dresses. Look at google images for help discover your style. It doen't matter what style you wear, but your clothes should always be fitted, I find the most annoying thing about mens clothes is that men wear pants that are far too baggy/wide legged. This doesn't mean skinny jeans but we like to see your ass just as much as you do.
Invest in good quality shoes! You don't have to spend a lot on clothes but you should buy quality shoes (allan Edmunds), they will last you a long time for how much they cost and wearing sneakers on a date is really bummy. If you can not afford it find similar styles for cheaper. Well fitting traditional mens clothing is a GREAT place to start. GQ GQ GQ.
It depends on where you're going. I like a man who is well dressed, it just show that he takes care of himself. But if we're going out for an ice-cream, i do not expect him to be dressed like he's on his way to some private function. Being casual and care free is also attractive. If the girl has not complained about what you're wearing then I don't think she has a problem with it, just make sure you do not under dress when you're going on a romantic date.
My boyfriend is exactly the same. He usually wears either jeans with a flannel or a t-shirt. I don't care.
Today he surprised me by wearing a dress shirt and pants on our anniversary.
Just dress formal/formal casual for events. If she likes you she won't care.
It is about what looks good on you and what you feel comfortable in. I dress without a lot of effort because I wear what I like, I am being myself and I think that is what you should do be yourself. A lot of people express themselves with the way they dress, it is them. I think what you wear is just fine, simple and comfortable and you could combine it with a simple cardigan or a jacket or you can just wear a simple shirt, it always works. :)
It depends upon the girl.
When I was your age I liked designer clothes. The comment was made often that I looked as though I had just stepped off a catwalk.
Funny thing, most of the girls passed me over for POS bad boys, some of whom looked as though they were homeless.
Do not believe anything that women say. Watch what they do to find out what they want.
Be neat and clean but keep it simple. Jeans may be a bit TOO simple but then again, it depends where you go out on dates.
It's actually the other way around for me. The dude I like always wears suits and casual formal attire, whereas I have my leggings and kid print sweaters hahaha.
Girls dress to impress or feel beautiful. But sometimes they like rugged type guys. It used to be a real man didn't dress so "nicely" but rather were strong and courageous and didn't know a thing about computers. Times are changing but not everyone is.
