The Five Most Common Male-Style Bad Habits

A guest post written for The Effortless Gent

There’s a fine line between slob and dandy, and true confident style only happens when it’s effortless.  Barron Cuadro at The Effortless Gent gets it, talks it, and helps us all walk it.  Honest without an ounce of high-style snobbery, he’s the kind of guy that you’d want to share a beer or two with, then ask him for advice on what to wear for an upcoming date.  He covers everything from the casual button up to orange pants, and he’s true to his site’s promise of “Better equipping the everyday man.”

We all have bad habits, sartorial or otherwise.  They can easily creep up with little warning.  So taking a good look at your well worn style ruts should be something of a regular assessment.  Head over to The Effortless Gent to see the Dappered feature on five of the most common bad habits in male style, and add any others that you think are worth mentioning in the comments section.  I’m guilty of at least one, and probably a few more that hopefully you guys will bring to my attention.
