To stand out… to be noticed… you have to dress smartly.

Especially today. Women have choices. They are selective. You have to work on being attractive and charming. It does not have to be hard or expensive to look and feel like a 'million dollars.'

Well, whether you ever had that problem with being attractive to women or not here is a secret that dramatically enhances the style you project. Wear a good quality, well pressed semi-dress shirts that’ll make you stand out.

The expensive stuff that the models in the pictures below are decked out in are Tommy Bahama's and John Nordstrom's. The shirts sell for anything between $89 to155. Now granted from at a Nordstrom Store you get superior quality and exceptional service and all that. But you can get the same look from a relatively cheaper shirt say $15-25.

I’ll tell you where to get similarly stylish shirts cheap and more importantly how to maintain that crisp new shirt look without breaking the bank

We are talking the common, average neighborhood mall variety store which carry clothing lines unlike they did before.

Implementing this Secret, you can:

- Look like you have bucks or that you shop so wisely that with brains like yours, you will eventually have bucks......

- You will get many beautiful eyes on you.... wondering.... and weighing in if you might just be Mr. Right?

The shirts that impress me with their style cut and price are from the D'amante brand. I have no hook or link with them by the way. The particular variation of them that are most snazzarific is the banded collar variety. They're just wonderful. Again, the collar is in a band. They are referred to as "Mandarin" collars. No matter; they look sparklingly marvelous no matter what you call 'em. They have great lines and colors, that help to accentuate your face and your body's physique much more than a normal dress shirt does. The collar itself is the main detail that makes the shirts look so damn attractive and impressive. The buttons also have a rather unique design. They are hidden behind the seam. It's almost like a Japanese neo-love ninja look, and it's downright sleek.

The magnetic attraction a good shirt and a touch of great fragrance is an awsome feeling. The reaction you get from a hot women has to be seen (or shall we say "experienced") to be believed. In the world of classy women, who may have been out of your reach, now they will start to notice you.

Being dressed well also has a great impact in other areas of life. In day-to-day life, for instance, it just seems like people are a lot 'nicer' to me. They tend to receive me better, and perhaps give me more privileges than someone they might see as one who is shabbily dressed. That's just people for you.

For an example.In clubs and hotels, for instance, they have areas that are reserved exclusively for people either 'on the list', or obvious VIPs, like such as the recognizably rich and famous. Believe it or not, when I have been 'Dressed'; I've slipped into more than a few of these areas unquestioned! I just looked like I belonged there, and of course you got to act like you belong there too. 'Hourly workers' rarely question someone with such a power look, They want a dialog instead. You got practice the appropriate attitude of the powerful. Gatekeepers recognize these behaviours instantly. That is what they do. And they hate reading someone wrong. They would rather err and practice caution rather then cause a scene with a Real VIP, "What do you mean 'Am I on the list?!!?'. Do you have any idea who I am? In fact, tell me who are you?'" I believe that anyone who looks and acts the part of someone important, will be treated as someone important.

So these shirts are a powerful key to an irresistible image. They really kick ass. But it gets better.

I have seen these shirts priced from $20 on sale to a meager $32. They look like they cost well over $100! The down side is the fabric they use. It's a blend of only 65% polyester, and 35% cotton. That is to say that 65% of these shirts will melt your balls off, and the other 35% will provide vital breathing. In practice, this isn't too bad. The fabric is fairly thin. It'd just be nice if they could breathe even more.

Fabric concerns aside, aesthetically, D'amante shirts beat the living pants off $200 shirts I've seen at stores like Saks Fifth Avenue. Seriously. Try to find a shopping area where you have easy access to both a Saks and a JCPenny. Then go and compare. You'll be amazed at what the $200 shirt at Saks, vs. these shirts at JCPenny.can do for you.

Update

A stop at a local mall here in LA revealed another line of banded collar shirts, this time under the "Elliot" label. Some of them are very smart looking, with excellent buttons. They could really capture a women's attention. Unfortunately, the downside to them is a little more extreme than the D'amante shirts offer. Several of their shirts are all polyester. Ick!. Try to wear these puppies only when it's cool out there like in Oregon or Washington or Nebraska. or say, at a bar. Some of their designs, though, are a polyester/cotton blend. Be sure to check the label.

Update

I've had some responses from men that after a while, it doesn't seem like they are getting same compliments from women like they did when they first began wearing these shirts. A little questioning revealed some confusion on a subject I originally thought to be pretty obvious -- how to get a dress shirt cleaned.

I guess that if your attire is normally a wrinkled tee-shirt and jeans, you don't really have the habits to maintain the upkeep a good looking shirt. You've got to keep good clothes looking nice.

Don't can't be cheap -- take all dress and sport shirts like these to the cleaners. Try to find a Cleaner who have a good reputation in your neighborhood. One in the area that's been around the longest, One which uses the latest equipment and cleaning technology, professional cleaning is something of an art. Start a relationship with them with your cleaners and stay away from Budget Cleaners. They'll ruin perfectly good clothes, without taking any responsibility for it. Clothes that cost a lot of money to replace. Try going to a regular priced cleaner.

Now, there are two different options for shirts at most cleaners: laundering and dry cleaning. Both should include pressing. Laundering, even at a high quality cleaner, should cost no more than $1-1.50 per shirt. Dry cleaning should run maybe $3-$3.50 per shirt. Dry cleaning definitely keeps your clothes looking newer longer. That should be the goal. A few years after you bought the shirt you should be able to pick it out of your closet and it should look like it was the first day you wore it. It's the best option if you intend to take good care of your shirts, You don't have go to the cleaner very often, and, to be honest, unless you live in the tropics you don't sweat that much. If you sweat a lot, you should have the shirts you wear laundered frequently-- at least now and then. It tends to remove odors a little better. Otherwise once you wear a shirty once, you should neatly hang them on good quality wooden hanger in a well ventilated closet. Throwing them behind the door and hoping it does not end up on the floor will not work.

There are a couple of different ways cleaners finish a shirt. They'll either do it by hand or use a machine. Go to a cleaner that hand finishes, if you can. This means that they'll actually hand iron out any final kinks in your garment, which will leave your clothes looking better. And since only the most attentive cleaners hand finish, they'll be more likely to do other things right, as well. If they're machine finishing, you'll have some funky depressions left from the machinery itself.

You'll also have options as far as starch goes -- light, medium, or heavy. Starch stiffens a shirt, and keeps it looking nicely pressed longer. However I prefer no starch and that is a personal preference, starch also weakens the fabric of a shirt. A shirt, for instance, might only be able to be heavily starched 10 times, before it starts to look ragged, needing replacement. I recommend at least light starch or no starch, so you have some of the benefits of starch, while also avoiding some of the downfalls of a heavy starch. You'll want to experiment with different levels though, depending on how rough you are with your shirts, and how long in-between cleanings you.
