Aaron Marino, Virtual Makeover, Part Four: Shirts

Alpha M Image Consulting, Virtual Makeover Part Four – and last part. Didn’t have time yesterday to go through the shirts.

What I want to tell you about the shirt situation is pretty much along the same lines as the guiding principles in the pants situation — too much fabric! At least that’s according to mentor Aaron Marino, and I think he’s right.

A few years ago I began to see “athletic fit” dress shirts being sold, and this was a start. Typically, they’d fit in the shoulders and chest and would taper down somewhat at the waist. Clearly, they were made for men who lifted weights or had broad shoulders, narrow waist for some other reason (not sure what that would be, maybe genes?). Anyway, I digress.

So again, as by now you’re used to, the methodology was for me to send Aaron some pictures of current shirts he would critique. The light blue button-down L.L. Bean shirt (see video) is typical of shirts I’d wear to work situations (when not wearing a tie, which was most of the time). Nice enough, but way too much fabric around the middle and arms, as you’ll see.

Aaron at Alpha M Image suggested a few things, of which I’ll show you three (again, in the video!)

Aaron Marino, Alpha M Virtual Makeover, Part Three

Makeover Part Three . . .

Pants!

Moving northward from the shoes . . . it was time for Alpha M Image Consulting to evaluate the pants situation. At the time having been out of work or working sporadically, the usual American staple, jeans, were my daily uniform of choice (one I got out of my chili pepper lounge pants, but that’s another story).

So I sent Aaron Marino a photo of my usual jeans choice: BTW, I’m 5’7″.

His comments were that I was in good enough shape (thank you walking, biking, yoga and gym) to wear things that were more fitted, for a leaner, youthful look. Again, he sent me (via email) a number of suggestions, which I went out to try on. After many tries, I settled on a pair of Gap 1969 Skinny (!) jeans and a pair of Buffalo David Britton jeans (which have a tiny amount of spandex in them, making their snugness less restricting, at least for this person).

Aaron was right. These do look good on me. Who knew?

Now, for dressier slacks. Again, the problem was what I had was way out of style (like, hello, pleats!) or simply too big. Alpha M focused on a better fit, so I got things like these two examples: Slim-fit tailored black khakis (also from Gap) and a pair of pin-striped Kenneth Cole Reaction pants.

My reaction (to the Reaction!): I didn’t realize I could wear pants cut like this, or that they’d be comfortable – when I’d seen them in ads or on lean/skinny twentysomething models, I just assumed they’d be tight, uncomfortable and impossible to zip up – but they weren’t.

I wear the jeans quite often and, since I work at home, the dressier stuff is (so far) for business casual events, such as a mixer I went to last night.

I’ll do yet another virtual makeover post to focus on shirts.

Aaron Marino, Alpha M Image Consulting Makeover, Part One

Last fall, coming close to my second anniversary of unemployment or underemployment (and there’s a fine line between those two!), I decided I needed to step up my game in all areas of my life, not just the work aspect.

We often hear about age discrimination in the job marketplace, and I’m sure there’s enough of it out there — though how do you ever figure out if that’s why you’re not hearing anything back on all those gobs of resumes you’re papering the city with?

Still, I figured I’d better look the part if indeed I got a callback. Truth is, I am fifty-something, and perhaps not quite as fashionable in reality as I think I am in my dreams.

I’d been a fan of YouTube video star Aaron Marino for quite some time. Aaron, who is also a former bodybuilding champion and fitness expert, runs a web-based men’s fashion advice business (Alpha M Image Consulting) from Atlanta. He uploads humorous, but always very well-informed fashion videos about once a week or so. He also offers makeover consulting, either in person or virtually.

I always had a secret desire for a fashion makeover! So I bit. I contacted Aaron and we arranged to do the virtual makeover. The methodology was pretty simple: first, there were some questions I needed to answer, then a phone call with Aaron for him to get a better idea of where I was and what I was looking for.
