    Hello, I am planning on going shopping today and well I need new kind of style.
    I am:
    175 cm tall.
    I am 18 years old.
    Not-Slim build.( 90-100 kg.)
    I am in college,
    So what could I wear? I thought of jeans, t-shirt and jacket from suit but I don't know. Suggestions please?

    What are you comfortable in? That's what's most important. There's a lot of stuff that would look great on me, and is fashionable, but I wouldn't be comfortable wearing. If we can start with that we might get some ideas :) For instance I'm into florals, clashing loud colours, heels and colourful tights, and conflicting patterns (that work, I'm not all over the place with my style ;) )

    I am 5'5", 9 stone, and while that suits me fine, someone else may not be comfortable wearing that if they are the same build as me! :)

    Oh forgot to mention, I am male.
    Well I like kind of mix of formal/urban/casual style.

    Ah ok, well that changes my original post then :D

    I think jeans and a t-shirt are a good casual mix, for your age I'd recommend t-shirts from Jack and Jones or Diesel, mix in a bit of colour, yellow, blue and red tees are nice. I also really like this sweater! :)

    For nights out, a plain tee and checked shirt mix are nice, and you really can't go wrong with the shumper look - shirt underneath a nice sweater! Boots under jeans then are quite nice, or a pair of Vans!

    Have you tried reading male fashion blogs for inspiration? A good place to start is to look at the style of male singers or actors that you admire.

    I found Fashion Beans to be quite a good website when I was looking to change how I dressed. This article might be of some use:
    http://www.fashionbeans.com/2011/dressing-for-your-age-twenties/

    I don't get their love affair with blazers and brogues but in general, that site is a pretty good starting point.

    I ended up buying:
    2 pairs or jeans, blue and dark blue.
    A black jumper (one of those thin ones)
    Shoes,
    and few t shirts, fits me well.
