Most of the women like to dress up fashionably. Till now, it was only women who were dressing up properly. But in the last few years, men have begun to openly accept fashion wholeheartedly. Most of the designers are trying to experiment with men’s clothing that they enjoy dressing. One of the pieces men enjoy dressing up is tuxedos.

Men who have social life have to wear formal tuxedos. Since tuxedos are very expensive than other dress clothes, shopping for them is not always easy. So they should stick to something basic. Buying basic black tuxedos are classic and easy to find. Buying such a type of piece does not go out of style and men will be comfortable to wear.

Before shopping for a tuxedo, decide whether you want a single-breasted or double breasted suit. If you want something more formal, choose a tail jacket and stick to a black tie.

Try to find out which suit style you like will save you time when choosing the suits to try on. Try as many tuxes on as you like. Do try pants with the jackets as well. Pants should match suit jackets and that they fit you well.

Once you have found out your favorite tuxedo, make sure you alter it if needed. Do wear accessories along with it. Some men like to wear tuxedos with vests. You can also use bow ties or cummerbunds. Try everything on together. Try, try and try until you find the best look for you.

Things to remember while buying a Tuxedo

Tuxedo Shirt:
While shopping for tuxedo shirt, go in for either a wing or turndown collar. Wing collars will have a stiff, clean front while turndown collars will have a softer, pleated front. Make sure that the front bib section of the shirt will not extend past your suspenders.

Trousers:
Select tuxedo trousers according to your type of dinner jacket – trousers with two stripes for tailcoats, and trousers with a single stripe for all other dinner jackets. Choose trousers with vertical pockets for a dressier look.

Jacket:
Try to select a lightweight fabric for your tuxedo. Lightweight fabrics will keep you cool. Always choose a tuxedo color that is black in color or deep, midnight blue. Wear light colored, off white dinner jackets only during summer months or in warm climates. Choose a tuxedo style that suits your purpose. Double and single breasted dinner jackets are appropriate for any occasion. Double-breasted jackets are worn buttoned when standing. Choose either shawl or peak lapels – the only lapels appropriate for formal dinner jackets. Find a jacket that flatters your face and build. Shawl lapels de-emphasize a round face, and jackets without vents make you look slimmer.

In 1967, an article in Vogue magazine got Estee Lauder to thinking. The article, entitled, “Can Great Skin Be Created?” dealt with how important it was to develop a skin care routine, and how that routine could make all the difference in actually creating beautiful skin. Estee Lauder being the genius she was, decided it was time to get her then popular company, twenty years strong, into the dermatological skin care business. Thus, Clinique was born.

Since 1968, Clinique has been the final word in quality skin care. Here are five quality Clinique Fragrances that are ideal for the woman in your life:

1. Aromatics Elixir: The original scent from Clinique Fragrances, Aromatics Elixir has remained popular for nearly forty years. Top notes include rose and chamomile, producing a floral opening that soon goes into a more woodsy flare and a taste of the Orient featuring oakmoss, jasmine, muguet, and Ylang-Ylang. The foundation of Aromatics Elixir includes patchouli, musk, amber, and sandalwood.

2. Happy for Women: Happy for Women is one of those classic Clinique Fragrances, which, despite having a lot going on, produces an aroma that is simple, sweet, and spectacular. Happy gets much of its initial punch from a healthy opening dose of ruby red grapefruit, bergamot, West Indian Mandarin Tree Blossom, and High Altitude Laurel. After that first wave, middle notes of Boysenberry Bush Flower, Morning Dew Orchid, and Melati Blossom, take over punching up the floral flare of the scent before ending with a slightly Oriental twist. Base notes of Hawaiian Wedding Flower, White Crinium Lily, Chinese Golden Magnolia, and Spring Mimosa Blossoms, make sure of it.

3. Happy Heart: This 2003 selection from Clinique Fragrances and perfumer Christophe Laudamiel is a mostly floral fragrance that continues in the tradition of the original Happy for Women. It starts with a naturally fruity flare that includes notes of mandarin, cucumber, and Crisp Mountain Air Accord. After that, middle notes of yellow primrose, wild carrot flower, and water hyacinth, set up a perfect woodsy base.

4. Happy to Be: Sure to be one of your favorite Clinique Fragrances, Happy to Be is a unique blend of floral and lemon. Like a previous discontinued selection from Clinique, Simply, it features pear and soya. You may also detect small doses of honey and grapefruit in the concoction that help to enhance the natural, earthy theme of the scent.

5. Happy in Bloom 2009: This limited edition scent from Clinique Fragrances is another in a long line of bright, joyous aromas that combine the best elements of fruit and floral for an incredible product that is poised to be the next great thing from the pioneer and leader of the skin care industry. Opening up with a well-charged display of notes that include yellow plum, frozen fruit, and water green, the fruity takes a turn for middle notes of muguet, white freesia, and mimosa, before a solid foundation of amber and white wood close things out with a woodsy flare.

Clinique Fragrances are excellent additions to your skin care routine from the originator of the industry. Whether it’s Happy in Bloom, Happy to Be, or the original Happy for Women, these are scents that will whisk her away to an enchanted place, and if you’re lucky, maybe she’ll take you along.
