This week we’re taking a look back at the best (at least what WE consider the best) of what Dappered had to offer in 2016. Not trying to toot our own horn here.

And by the way, to those Dappered readers: thanks.

It doesn’t take much, but small efforts in the grooming department can greatly enhance a guys appearance.

 

Never Trust a Man Who Wears…


Admittedly a little tongue in cheek, but with some realistic truths sprinkled in. We don’t consider ourselves here to judge. On the contrary, we hope that any guy (or gal) that stops by this site finds it informative, or at least funny, without negatively questioning their own sense of style. But quoting from the original post, “…as an exercise in filtering, here’s perhaps some fashion flags that could warrant at least some tactful, slightly suspicious side-eyeing…”

 

7 BIG Style Spending Mistakes to Avoid

Best Posts of 2016 - Nightmare Fuel, Bad Grooming, & Style Mistakes | Dappered.com

You’re a rare breed if you’ve never spent money on clothing, footwear, or anything really, that seemed like a great idea at the time, but in the harsh face of reality was obviously a bad choice. For those of you (all of you) hanging your head in shame, we’ve been there. This post was written with that “so stupid!” feeling in mind, because we’ve made all of those mistakes before.
