Bonobos Summer Suit Collection.

Hey Fashionheads !

Like me, I know every woman wants a well-dressed man. ! Ladies it's just something about a man in a suit that makes you want to faint and drop to your knees. I came across a great website that will help our men look dapper without even having to try; it will be effortless.

Being a woman who has been around men, I know that most enjoy the attention of beautiful women. If you noticed, women love a man that is "Suited Up". Dressing well is more than half the battle; I'll leave the "game" up to you. ! (lol)

Now lets get to the amazing site !

Bonobos.com. is an amazing site. I think the main things that caught my eye were the different fabrics and the fit. The fit is amazing, the variety is to die for, and the fabric is one of a kind. "There Summer Suit line is a collection of lightweight Seersucker and Cotton suits that perfectly compliment warm weather, weddings, and mint juleps.

One thing that I have always noticed about a lot of men is that they don't know how to hang a suit properly. The fit is the most important thing about wearing a suit. Even if they suit is not a high-end brand, if the fit is perfect then nothing else will matter and no one will even know. Every man should look tailored. I want to see men capture the essence of a great suit!

Now. Lets go into more fit details !

According to Dwight Fenton, Bonobos VP of Design, "Fit is the most important detail for a suit. Marry that with a classic color options and quality fabric, and you have a great looking, versatile suit for every occasion."

Here are some tips on how to hang the perfect suit. <3

Fenton's simple suit tips:

• Fit starts with the shoulders: The jacket should grab your shoulders snuggly but not be overly tight. If the shoulders fit, pretty much anything else can be adjusted.

• Length matters: To determine the appropriate length, you should be able to cup the bottom of the suit with your arms by your side.

• Show some shirt: A flexible but general rule of thumb is to have a quarter-inch of your shirt cuff showing. If you’re wearing a heavier cuff, like a French cuff, you may want to show a little more.
