He also went "aha" when he realized colours like brown and grey had undertones depending on how they were mixed. I had to laugh when he informed me that a green-grey shirt I was eyeing just wouldn't work with his blue-grey pants--score one for him!</p> <p>There is also a good roundup of blogs devoted to men's style and etiquette here:<br /> <a href="http://www.artofmanliness.com/2009/03/31/best-mens-style-websites/" rel="nofollow">http://www.artofmanliness.com/.....-websites/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-needs-fashion-help#post-1810678 Wed, 24 May 2017 21:39:18 +0000 Emily K 1810678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>MsMary</b>, <b>Greyscale</b>--I never even thought of Trunk Club for men. &nbsp;That's an idea! &nbsp;Although, I still think he needs to do some soul-searching to find out what he really needs from his fashion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-needs-fashion-help#post-1810673 Wed, 24 May 2017 21:21:07 +0000 Greyscale 1810673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, one of the grad students here started using Trunk Club and he looks so sharp all the time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-husband-needs-fashion-help#post-1810669 Wed, 24 May 2017 21:00:37 +0000 MsMary 1810669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If he's willing to spend some money, he might want to try Trunk Club dot com. It's owned by Nordstrom and they have stylists who will send you a box of clothing according to what you say your tastes are. Isabel at Trunk Club has done wonders for my husband's style game. </p> <p>Coming back to say the styling is free but the clothes can be pricey, although you can specify your price range. My husband has expensive tastes!
