…and how not to be one of them. Head back to school looking better than ever without looking like that tool in your Intro to Psych class.

There are COUNTLESS articles and resources online with recommendations for how to go back to school in style. We know because we’ve looked.

Pinterest has proven to be a great resource in the past and continues to serve us to this day, but sifting through some of the ridiculous bullshit can get tiring.

The truth is, initially, when you step up your style game* you’re gonna have people around you look at you funny and screw up their faces at you (i.e. “Who’s this asshole think he is?)

These detractors are an inevitable side effect of improving yourself, and you’re gonna have to just let them be. For every man who’s tried to better himself, there are fifty bystanders in the cheap seats hoping he’ll fail, secretly wishing they had the balls to do something different.

But let’s get to the issue at hand: you need/want to look good when you go back to school and there are eight billion articles, videos, films, TV shows, photos and Instagram accounts telling you what to wear or what girls wanna see their boyfriends wear. And yes…it’s hard to sort through that shit and find some decent style inspiration.

So since it’ll be a few years before you need to plan your first “adult” job outfit, we’re here to point you in the right direction and give you some ideas that you need to straight up steal to get some attention once class starts. We’ve done this to cut through the noise and give you some practical, affordable, and most importantly, EFFECTIVE looks to use this Fall.

*Yes….we HATE using that phrase, even though we tend to resort to it fairly regularly. Come up with a better term and we’ll use it. To follow us on Instagram and get all of our hilarious and insightful posts on men’s style, go here.
