We all have that guy in our lives. The one who thinks it's fine to wear white socks with black shoes, who wears a football jersey when he's not watching football or who thinks turtlenecks are okay.
Maybe he's your dad, or your brother or your boyfriend. Either way, there are some dudes out there who could use some direction in the wardrobe department. And what better time to give him the hint than during the holidays?
So, to help get him on his way to better grooming habits and a not-so-dreadful closet, we've rounded up 13 great holiday gifts that will slowly convert him into a dapper dude.
1. Aviators because they look good on practically everyone and will hopefully make him ditch his Oakleys. (Ray-Ban Aviators, $144).
2. Cologne because this is a gift for you as much as it is for him. (Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb, $105).
3. Beard oil because his long, shaggy beard may as well smell good. (MCMC Fragrances Dude No. 1 Beard Oil, $65).
4. A canvas bag because it's durable, affordable and most likely much better than whatever else he has been using to haul his stuff around. (J. Crew Abingdon Weekender, $198).
5. Desert boots because, obviously. (Clarks Desert Boots, $119).
6. A leather wallet because Velcro isn't okay. (Mulberry Cross-Grain Leather Card Holder, $150).
7. Grooming kit because, one step at a time. (Kiehl's Since 1851 'Essential for Him' Set, $31).
8. Patterned socks because white tube socks never work. (Happy Socks Optic Socks, $12).
9. A black umbrella because no one looks chic soaking wet. (Futai Vented Compact Umbrella, $18).
10. A masculine candle because what guy wouldn't want his room to smell like tobacco and leather? (Cire Trudon Ernesto Tobacco And Leather Scented Candle, $85).
11. Running shoes because his high school sneakers just aren't cutting it anymore. (Nike Lunarglide+ 5, $110).
12. Leather gloves because he'll have them forever, and they will keep his fingers warm as the temperatures start to drop. (Club Monaco Half Knit Leather Glove, $89).
13. Boxer briefs because a boy wears boxers and a man wears boxer briefs. (Calvin Klein Underwear Cotton Stretch Boxer Brief 2-Pack, $34).
Maybe if we casually tape pictures of these men around the house, our guys will get the picture:
