Spring 2014 Guide to Style
(Pants)
Welcome to Part II (Pants and Underwear) of our 2014 Guide to Style.
Like we discussed in Part I, "edgy" in 2014 is moderate, at most.
Torn, significantly distressed or faded jeans are completely out of style.
Big, loud stitching that forms big, loud symbols (think: True Religion - omega, Afflication - fleur de lis) also dead.
This kind of jean is out of style.
Keep in mind - an edgy shirt and a few accessories is more than enough to give your style a significant kick in sex appeal - even with the pants aren't terribly edgy.
Good pants, in general, are worth paying a few more bucks for.
You can wear them nearly everyday and you only need ONE pair that you really like. There's no need to get a "wardrobe" of clothing that you won't be wearing.
Just rotate the shirts over them. From 2008-2010, I basically wore the exact same jeans EVERYDAY and rotated 6 or 7 shirts.
Also, I encourage you to give some consideration to my final suggestion on this page. I'll do a full review on the product later but they enable me to stay ripped and still have a significant ass that almost everyone notices.
If these styles don't appeal to you, the alternative is to go FULL ON for some stereotype with sex appeal - rockstar, biker, etc.
This requires you to get the appropriate haircut and all the necessary apparel from head-to-toe.
Our primary recommendation, Nordstrom, has free shipping and free lifetime return policy.

Good Looking Jeans (Edgy)
Edgy/Well Dressed- Fashionable jeans aren't super edgy this season. It's what you put with them that can make the overall look edgier. So with these jeans you can pair them with an edgy graphic tee, dog tags and a gray leather jacket for an edgy look. Or you can pair them with a nice plain white or gray V-neck shirt and nice jacket for a well-dressed look that still has a little edge. Slim-fit jeans are very in this spring but if you are overweight at all just go with a straight leg jean (these are skinny).
These Division E jeans are a little edgy for a light blue jean without being too tattered (which isn't in). You want to have at least one pair of light blue jeans for spring. They will go with almost any T-shirt and you can wear them for almost any casual day look.
Good Looking Jeans (Well-Dressed)
Well-Dressed/Casual- Mavi jeans are super soft. Like a pillow! These are nice jeans that are very versatile. They show that you have style but you don't have to go overboard. They go great with a nice, light colored graphic Tee. You can skip the Converse shoes though.
Well-Dressed/Casual- 7 For All Mankind makes high quality, fashionable jeans. A nice pair of gray jeans are just as versatile as blue jeans this season. Gray is a great color for jeans because they look good with dark and light shirts and you can wear blue shirts with them without having to be worried that the blue is too close in color to your blue jeans.
Good Looking Shorts (Edgy)
Black camouflage shorts, done right, can be fashionable. We don't recommend the other colors but these are nice if you want some longer shorts that have some edge. #Affordable
Good Looking Shorts (Well-Dressed)
Gray shorts, just like the gray jeans, are super versatile for spring. They work for almost any casual occasion. Straight-leg shorts are in this season, without too many pockets or embellishments. This spring is moving away from cargo. These make you look fashionable and well-dressed, without looking like you're trying too hard.
Colored shorts are in this season. As well as shorts above the knee. These are a great, classic above-the-knee cut without being too short. This green is fashionable and fresh. Pair bright colored shorts with neutral colored shirts. White V-neck tees are an easy top for any color shorts. Add some long necklaces if you go with a plain colored shirt. A white graphic tee works with these too. #Multiple Colors
Good Looking Athletic Gear
These look great and black is a great color for workout shorts because you can wear any color shirt with them. Under Armour's new line is super light. You can expect it to really hold up for years - no shrinkage, no waistband issues and no fading. #Affordable #Multiple Colors
Good Looking Boxer Briefs
Under Armour makes hot, high-quality boxer briefs. Red and black is a sexy color combination but these look great in a lot of colors because the style is flattering and masculine. They also have an athletic feel, which girls love. #Multiple Colors
Good Looking Padded Boxer Briefs
(awesome, wear Under Amour over them)
If you don't have much of an ass (often an inevitability with being sub 8% bodyfat) or even if you do - this underwear can significantly enhance it. These are WAY BETTER than padded ones on Amazon.com and will last for years. If you want to enhance the front - check out this one. I'll put up my full review later. I admit to wearing them, even though I'm not particularly lacking in shape. It helps to rock Under Amour over it. - Chris
