13. My first impression on glancing at the picture was he wore his fleece sleep pants to work!

Had to look at the whole ensemble to realize he was in a suit — rumpled as it was. AND sporting a pink tie that had seen better days. He was a sight. Looked like he was leaving a bar at closing time after knocking back a few too many brewskies.

12. Couple of things, there, Howdy Gowdy:

1. Nice suit, but wear suspenders instead of a belt. You just look sloppy in this pic.

2. If you wear a plaid suit, don't wear a plaid shirt; your look is busier than you've ever been. Wear a pinstriped shirt or solid color.

3. From here it looks like you're wearing a button-down collar. Switch to point collar. Button-down collar is too casual for the look you seem to be going for.

4. Get a new tailor. This suit fits you like it was made for three other people.

5. 10 out of 10 for matching the leather of your belt to your shoes. But you should have chosen a nice dark cordovan instead of light brown.

6. A pocket silk would have killed you? Come on, Dude; learn to accessorize!

Follow these tips, and maybe you won't look like such a sad sack.

Also: re-think your life's choices...
