chicks dig dudes in uniform. this is a known fact.
and if your chick has a strong sense of style or you are trying to impress a girl who knows whats good then it can get a little trickier. here are some basic guidelines s you may want to follow to show off your biceps this summer and truly excel in the gear department.
1. you cant really go wrong with an mvp basketball jersey--ever. for example: nothing wrong with rocking a #24 kobe bryant jersey but if you want her to know youre not just a run of the mill jock you might go with a throwback magic johnson or wilt chamberlain. it shows off your acute sense for the LAKERS but also that your mom didnt buy your sh_t on sale for you last week at sears.
2. be aware of your surroundings! if you are sporting a yankees cap in L.A. it could be hot to females who dig new york accents and east coast trust funds but beware gentlemen. because if you sport that same yankees fitted on a day when they play los DODGERS thats gonna be 3-strikes right there.
3. some friendly rivalry is good but aggressive cockiness can be a huge turnoff--for example say you moved to town recently and youre from chicago. its cool to throw your favorite cubs players jersey into the mix every so often to rep your hometeam. but dont play it out because it makes you seem like a foreigner and that can be unattractive to the local heinas.
4. know what time it is--and know the season too! basketball season just ended so selective champ gear is still chill for a minute but by august i assure you that fisher jersey of yours is not looking as fresh to us. keep it crisp and dont be caught flossing 2-thousand-and-late styles. another example might be a new york giants superbowl jersey from last year. getting a little played out by now but if youre amped up about football season and you want to rep NFL try a recent draft pick uniform. either from the new draft team or the college joint is cool too. it shows that you were not born yesterday.
5. brand names can work like a uniform too at times--we always like to see a fresh pair of JORDANS with a northface bubble goose for example. dickies and wife beaters are good too! edhardy is bad news any way you slice it and edhardy mixed with affliction is a death sentence.
6. be yourself--shop for new things that look good on you specifically but do keep in mind current trends. the RAY BAN wayfarer stunners may not suit your face shape properly but its all good because every swashbuckling peg leg pirate in the mustache brigade is wearing those this summer. so try something new and current that works for you personally like maybe the RICK ROSS style louies instead.
7. with jewelry less is more--one nice expensive piece goes a lot farther than a bunch of crappy stuff thrown together. while a $40 plated gold chain from AMERICAN APPAREL might work for you as a quick fix in a last minute jam master jay halloween bind its not so cool to rock one every day. it makes you look like a cheap ass and a tool. plus if you save yourself from spending your dough on the chinky stuff you will have enough money to buy a real gold chain. and maybe even an iced out JESUS PIECE one day . . .
8. real men carry cash--no if's and's or but's. green cash money dollar bills are always in fashion especially big face fifties and benjies. it shows you are not balling off your girlfriends credit. or even worse your moms. and it still aint tricking if youve got it !!
9. watch out for goons--your posse is an accessory that can either make or break you. so be wise and choose your companions selectively. also you will want to make sure that when youre going out for a nice occasion when you might see her that THEY follow these aforementioned rules too. let your ladies see you associating with other cool people and keep your standards high.
10. the whip--im gonna go total elitist here and say if youre not pushing a REASONABLE DOUBT style 700-benz or a hot new MASERATI the color of toothpaste youre better off walking or taking a cab or letting her drive. its good for the environment plus you could probably use the exercise!
so bottom line is the more selective you are the better she can get to know your SWAGGER. before you even spit your first line of game. enjoy the summer ahead and happy shopping to all you sexy males out there. ONE LOVE and dont forget to wear your sunscreen !!
