Rules of Fashion: How to Avoid the Paparazzi and Look Good Doing It

Man and woman fashion couple

Hi. I am Jean Carlo. I am French and I am a clothier. Fashion and the clothes you wear says a lot about you. Learn some easy rules of fashion here.

10 Tips From Jean Carlo's Rules of Fashion:

1. Never wear socks with sandals or flip flops.
2. Never try to go against the grain by "starting a new trend" - this will hurt your fashion reputation.
3. Never wear a tie with a polo shirt.
4. Get fashionable outfits that fit true to your size.
5. Have suits and dress slacks altered if you change in size.
6. It is better to have one great looking outfit than 20 tacky ones.
7. Belt buckles should be aligned with ties.
8. Never wear holes in jeans (this is tacky).
9. You can buy inexpensive pieces that look luxurious and expensive.
10. Never wear a tie and a shirt that are the same color (this defeats the purpose of a tie).

These are just 10 of my fashion rules. I have many, many fashion rules, and I will share them all with you over time.

Paparazzi Troubles? Not if you Follow My Fashion Rules

If you find that you have committed the ultimate fashion faux pas, it can be easily corrected. Knowing the rules is the key to staying out of fashion trouble with the fashion police (being the paparazzi). If you are not being chased by the paparazzi, count yourself lucky.

If you want to be "fashion forward," as described by Heidi Klum of Project Runway, then be sure to check with your trusted fashion expert before going out in public with a new look.

I would be honored if you entrust me as your fashion advisor.

Sincerely,

Jean Carlo
