What The Pickup Artist on VH1 Wont Tell You About Fashion 2

(continued from part 1)

I’ve tried peacocking myself. I did this maybe a couple times when I heard that other guys were doing it, just to see if it worked.

I felt ridiculous, and was totally incongruent with my personality when I went out.

Women pay attention to fashion and like a well-dressed man, as we all know.

When I was in my workout clothes, or was wearing something basic – like jeans and a tanktop, I noticed that some of my best pickups occurred in there.

I’d see muscled-up guys wearing revealing spandex, or super-tight shirts at the club, and women definitely did not respond well to this.

This got me thinking…maybe it’s not how much the clothes cost, or how flashy they are…

Maybe there’s something else aside from that.

Actually, there are two things going on, and you must manage, or balance these two things.

The first thing is, never seek approval from women. You are totally toast, if a woman can tell you that you are trying to impress her or make her like you.

So if you look like you got dressed with the intention of getting women’s attention, they’ll see you coming a mile a way and put up their defenses.

You shouldn’t have to look like a pick up artist.

It’s better to dress reasonably, and not put too much thought into it.

However, you need to present yourself in the best way you can and not to look sloppy.

This comes back to self-expression.

You now have sense what kind of guy you are, what your “scene” is, what you think is cool.

Don’t change that.

Instead, improve it, with these simple tweaks.

This isn’t a rocket science. Wear colors that appeal to your skin tone and hair color. Go to an upscale men’s clothing store, and ask someone about this. Or look online.

Next, make sure your clothes are clean, and wrinkle free, and reasonably up-to-date. A woman should not have to worry about bringing you around her friends.

Lastly, make sure your clothes fit well, meaning, they ACCENTUATE YOUR MASCULINE PHYSIQUE.

Wear shirts that narrow your waist, and square your shoulders.

Wear pants that make your legs look long and thin.

Wear shoes that make your feet look big and well-formed.

Groom yourself – nose, neck, and ear hairs. Get a nice haircut. Shave, or don’t, but figure out what looks great and take it all the way.

One other piece…

Accessories should hang off you loosely, and have the look of a small decoration that says, “yeah, I can fuck.”

I don’t want to talk too much because that’s a whole other topic because that’s a whole other topic. Just use your intuition with this one.
