Renting a tuxedo is not being low-rent or cheap. You do not have to (or should not have to) pay hundreds to thousands of dollars on a suit you will only wear once or a few times a year. Instead, when you rent a tux, you pay both for being fashion forward and for the limited time that you wear the ensemble. It makes financial and sartorial sense. If you do not want to buy a tux for the few occasions you wear them, renting is much better than opting out. For an event that requires the classy, upscale elegance of a tux, you will only look under dressed, scruffy, or unappreciative if you pretend that the tuxedo is out as a formal style. When an invitation to a dinner or wedding says that a tuxedo is optional, take that as a demand to wear one. Do not be the lowest common denominator.

Sometimes, even though something is in style does not mean it is going to stick around. Fads are fads, trends are trends, but classic is classic, are there is a reason they are called classic – they resist any attempt to classify them in any particular decade. When you are watching fashions fly by from season to season, notice the clothes that continue to stay hot and invest in those cuts, colors, and cloths because classic clothes have staying power. This is important especially if you do not have as much money to stay cutting edge, which is relevant to the recent financial issues or to anyone who likes to save their money. You can spend a fair amount on good classic clothes all at once, but if they last through the fads and the trends, then you have got a fashion one-up on men who have to get new clothes every season.

Leave the bling at home – no oversized necklaces, no big belt buckles, no fake or real diamonds on your watch or pendants. If you want to go the jewelry route without looking like you listen to too much rap music (and worse, that you believe everything they rap), here’s the tip: keep it simple. Elegance is never overstated, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be present. A wedding ring is fine, of course. Maybe another thick ring with a stone in it if you want, but do not wear too much on the hands. Focus your attention on your wrists. A new medium-sized watch with a modern leather or metal band is good for a peek of class. And the best way to have a flash of stylish and acceptable bling without looking cheap or trashy is to invest in several pairs of cuff links. They are the earring equivalent of glimmer just for men.
