What is the proper way to put cologne?

02 stilista

Body heat is what attracts odours, so most experts agree you should put scented drops in places where your pulse is strongest. What do you mean, never forget to put it on the inside of the wrist and neck? Of course, we do not recommend bathing in perfume, if your scent reaches the room before you, it is time to reduce the dose a bit.

What is the best way to shave?

03 stilista

The best time to put a razor on your skin is during or immediately after showering. Warm water and steam help to open the pores and soften the chin, which in turn allows the razor to slide instead of butchering you on each hair. If you have ultra-sensitive skin, various oils are rubbed in before shaving, but that is rarely needed. And no matter what your strains tell you, shaving with hair is as smart as shaving with a rusty razor.

How often should you exfoliate your face?

04 stilista

Rubbing your face with an exfoliator should only happen once or twice a week. If you repeat this ritual more than twice, you can risk your skin drying out, reddening and a pimple appearing. And never forget to treat your face with a moisturizer after peeling, which is actually the most important part of this treatment.

No offence to watches, but what an eternal calendar means

Until 1925, all watches were equipped with simple calendars, so the owners of these watches had to adjust them manually at least five times a year, more precisely on the 1st of March, May, July, October and December. Additional cheering was needed every leap year. Finding more complicated movements, as with the eternal calendar, automatically calculate the length of the month, as well as the leap years. However, these devices are unperfect either, according to some calculations, you or your family, or your children’s grandchildren, will have to be corrected in 2100, when the clocks with the eternal calendar will skip February 29th.

Should we dry-clean sweaters?

Go ahead, if you want to shorten the time of your investment, then switch to heavy chemicals. However, it is true that your more expensive sweaters, if they get stained, should be cleaned by professionals. In addition, other sweaters could be washed in good old cold water with fabric softener and left on the finger to dry.

What should be worn with plaid jackets and blazers?

05 stilista

Not all plaid jackets and blazers are created equal. You can wear some more subtle ones with literally anything, while those with thicker lines have to be paired with the rest of the wardrobe. Gray pants or dark washed jeans would be the perfect pair with a dark tie.

What a relaxed business style should consist of

In a world where thongs and hooded sweatshirts are treated as permissible for some offices, it has become very difficult to define life between a beach wardrobe and glamorous events. Regardless, what will always make you a little more business is a jacket, whether you wear a shirt, T-shirt, jeans or pants, a good jacket will make you a businessman.

Should the belt fit the shoes?

06 stilista scaled

If your shoes are black or brown, then yes. In suede, navy blue or any other colour, then your belt should be, say, green or suede or calfskin. When writing rules, you only need awareness for coordination, not for matching.

Where should our jeans fall?

These are now questions for the cut of your jeans or trousers and of course up to you. Modern, slim-fit pants should just touch the shoe. They should touch the heel of the shoe a little more traditionally, but even that is unnecessary. In any case, avoid having more than one fold, unless you are a rapper, then that’s OK.
