10 TIPS FOR MEN Looking your best

Check out this list of 10 spring tips for men:
In lieu of a sleeveless T-shirt this spring, try a sleeveless woven shirt.
Ditch the formal sportcoat and sport a textured nonsolid blazer, with a buyer's cut striped or checked double-button collar shirt.
Lose the sand-blasted jeans and replace them with straight-legged or boot-cut blue jeans with just a mild wash finish.
Wear your big velour warm-up suit to the gym or on a long drive, but if you must wear a track suit of any sort in public, go with a '70s style terry-cloth suit.
Unbuckle the bulky belt and go with a fabric woven number.
Draw double-takes from passers-by with the latest wristwear, mini-wrist ties, made from the remnants of retro neckties by up-and-coming Oklahoma designer Xvala.
Unload your remaining pleated trousers and replace them with flat-fronts.
Unlace the wingtips and the hightops. Save space in your closet and replace them both with hybrid dress tennis shoes, especially the Cole Haan/Nike Airmax heel, and Pony's new line of crossover kicks.
Accessorize with an I-River or Samsung YP900 MP3 player.
Invest in a spring blazer. Go for white, but that might be hard to find. If so, look for pale gray, khaki or seersucker.
