men wearing immitations of name brands ( Gucci, Prada , LV, etc)
Men shouldn’t wear name brands, “luxury” brands like Gucci, blah blah y’all know are not real “luxury” you’re paying for brand names not brand material go by something 100% wool, 100% silk and see the difference in quality.

As beautiful as you are I'm going to look cheap I want someone like you around me for me not my money and if we link I'll explain it to you
With the new year coming up in a few weeks I wouldn't mind seeing a behavior video.
“Fragrance should be discovered not announced.” This one was a striking point. Thanks for your videos.
This... and the covering up is even worse cause you get announced pretty well but it just gets worse when you get into visual range.
"Oh flowers!!!
...
For a dead body?" 😅
Different colognes out there tho have very different projection and u need more to even last a few hours or be able smell it. It all smells good right away, but the cologne designers do it this way for money, as you use more and have to eventually buy more sooner. Most designer or niche fragrances do this. Can’t make this point enough, so her point isn’t valid
Golden words. 👍
Awful lot of people out there, both men and women, don't understand this simple simple concept and instead you can SMELL one of them has entered the building before you can even see them.
Correct and if you get an EDP with more oil you spray less but get less so you end up in the same spot @@Grandpuba1069
1. Sizing Proportions are off with your clothing
2. Over Accessorizing (Too Busy)
3. Not Keeping Up with Grooming Habits
4. Wearing Too Much Fragrance
5. Excessive Logos
6.Too Many Trendy Items (Quality vs Quantity)
7. Bright or Bad Color Combos
8. Wrinkles/Creases in Clothing
9. Leaving Little To Be Desired (ex. Wearing open button-ups nowhere near a beach/pool)
Thanks bro!
I don’t get it, I need to hear her explain it with her classy demeanor and tone of voice 😌
Thank you. I like Courtney's advice but I don't want to watch a quarter hour video.
I choose to look cheap, no one needs to think I have money. If I look broke I get left alone.
Based Grey Man
All the people that “need” to know you have money are the very last ones that should know.
There’s a balance to that, I often see that mindset with men who are already married or in a LTR so it’s easy to say if you’re not in the brutal dating pool, which of course you don’t want to “lead with money” but at the same time, you probably might want to quietly signal you’re financially comfortable somehow, right? 🤨
I do the same! Is better not to attract attention
It is so women can evaluate your worth....why? So they can get a piece of it.
Grooming habits is a big one. Not only does this make you look well put together, it communicates to others that you make the time to take care of your features.
Pro tip: Men who look expensive are usually broke and men who dress humble are sometimes mega loaded.
That run-on sentence doesn't make sense.
@@2mYgR Yeah it does because I'm giving people a tip, ie: look out for well dressed people who are most likely broke.
Common stereotype also poor man’s logic.
Never underestimate the power of an excellent and experienced tailor or seamstress! With clothing, even a cheap suit that fits perfectly will outshine an expensive suit in need of alterations.
FACTS👍🏽💯
I'll be buried in my cargo pants and cargo shorts... I will die on this hill, Courtney. 😂
Here here 😂
I'll drink to that brother.
Fake tan (possibly taking carotene) over age 45, under 5' 8", earrings, full sleeve tattoo, overpowering after shave, shaved head to hide the balding, just a hint of desperation and a beer gut.
It is almost a classic look in my town. 😉
Amen bro, although I gave up the cargos for Dickies shorts. The canvas material really holds up. I can cycle the same 3 pairs of dickies shorts for 5 years before replacing them.
Most cargo shorts i get tear up or disintegrate in less than a year. If you know a durable brand of cargo shorts, let a brother know!
@@OriginalTodzilla Oh yeah Dickies are great. I got a couple of black ones with the extra knee area pockets but aren't pouches for work and some shorts, they are made well. Cheaper stuff doesn't hold up like it does.
Thank you for telling people to minimise (or even better avoid) logos!
I laughed out loud when you mentioned guys wearing too much fragrance in high school. Guys apparently don’t change. In the late 1960’s, my high school was awash in guys wearing waaaay to much English Leather, Jade East, and British Sterling.
British Sterling is worthless now.
Guys, just groom, smell good, wear something that fits, and work out. You don't need to do anything else. You don't need to blow a bag to make most of these ladies like you. They're not worth it. However, clean up and make yourself presentable for yourself and your work. The ladies will follow you when you're doing your mission
I appreciate enthusiasm for increasing men's awareness, Courtney. Your work is nothing short of masterful! Women, in my opinion, usually take the lead when it comes to elegance. Happier lives and experiences are the result of satisfying connections. Men will connect more effectively, dating or not, when their consciousness is raised. Your videos promote recovery, self-assurance, and wellness. Bravo!
Brilliant Courtney as usual. I love your channel, thank you and take care, David.
Speaking of fragrance.... I read a story of a woman who liked a certain men's colonge and decided that if she wore it, she would attract a man who liked it.
It didn't work, but she noticed that women in elevators stood closer to her.
There are some good smelling men's fragrance & some good looking men in Hollywood.
Funny. In any case, listen to the advice of women what cologne you should wear - it's usually golden advice that they will give you. You need to find the one that fits -you-, and women are usually very honest about it and won't give you bad advice.
@@winfriedmaus Women know exactly what they want, that's why every other marriage ends in divorce.
Good insights, Courtney - thank you.
I really like what you mentioned about the proper fitting of clothes, because that's a secret way men can save money while maintaining a sharp look.
I have a friend who mastered this in college. He'd go to the thrift stores and buy clothes that fit him well for prices as low as $3 per shirt and $10 for pants. We used to laugh because we had a mutual friend who believed he had to wear the newest, most expensive designer clothes to attract women, and his budget consisted of $50 shirts and $100 pants.
There really is a way to "ball on a budget" if you know where to look and what you're looking for.
Also, funny psychological sidenote, the thrift store friend became an accountant while the expensive friend became a dentist.
Both good people, but I can't help but see a connotation in their professions versus amounts of money spent.
As a recently turned 50yr old guy I find wearing a plain black fitted v neck t-shirt, black jeans, classic converse chucks boots and a nice watch, works for me. And a black bomber jacket. Keeping it simple 😁
Chucks, the item that 11 year old girls, 50 year old men, and everyone inbetween can all wear.
@@Swearengen1980 trusty footwear. But nowhere near as comfy as they used to be 😆
I always wear black when I'm in the Matrix, too.
Thanks for sharing Fonzi.😅

male perspective
"less put together" vs. "cheap" -- opposites
"attention to detail and style" -- signaling effeminacy?
"accessory": "watch" -- big yes, especially if it can program the car and house, feed the dog on schedule, and alert you to spycams and radar.
"bracelets", "tie", "rings" -- extrinsically needy
grooming habits: "bathing" -- proactive problem solver
"cutting hair every for weeks" "nail symmetry" -- soft
"skin care routine" "fragrance" -- dysphoria
"logos" -- name dropping to cover low self esteem
"trendy" -- who cares?
"wrinkles/creases" -- spends time on what's important
"armpit stains" -- medical condition
"other stains" -- no insecurities
"immodesty" -- narcissist trying to distract you from other, massive insecurities
love ur content . thanks for sharing these different perspectives . it really clears my mind and stops me from overthinking :)
I wanna have a discussion with you ❤️ Above🛐🤦♂️
Good advice.
Throughout my years, I have definitely witnessed firsthand the difference.
I usually just wear all black everything: cargo/straight trousers, hoodie/jacket, footwear. But, whenever I wear a slimfit white shirt, skinny black tie, trousers and comfortable wallaby type shoes, even women who work in the city doubletake sometimes. Especially if I have my hair canrowed at the time.
Personally, I like to dress comfortable and skinny/slim fits just don't do it for me. I ask my brothers all the time how and why they want to wiggle and shake into their jeans lol.
Open/cuffed cargos of dark colours, brightest I'd go is cream. White tees galore and tees with designs, usually anime or a comic book character or movie reference as they always tend to be a ice-breaker for me through the years, and a fresh pair of simple but not over-expensive trainers(sneakers).
Overall, I love your video. It was packed with much good info, when we are at this level. Though, we have to remember that much of this is what we see on the outside of the man. Men have to know how to work on their life priority frame. This is a concept few understand. These life priorities are in the following order: mind, body, natural responsibilities (children, pets, etc.), home (with devices and utilities prioritized inside), media, work priorities, and friend/leisure priorities. Now, imagine a sliding frame. When it contracts, it drops down from friend/leisure priorities to mind priorities (mental health priorities). As we take care of our mind, body, natural responsibilities, and home (making sure we are completely filling them in), we can expand our life priority frame further to media, work, and finally to friend/leisure priorities. When we go on dates, it's supposed to be at the friend/leisure priority level in life. At that level, we can find men (or women) that have the perfect fitting clothes, accessorizes really well, and groom beautifully while having the right amount of fragrance, no visible logos, no wrinkles, and no bright colors. With all that going on, they can be a hot mess on all those other life priorities before the friend/leisure priority level, the one they have down pat and look good. Some people make fun of others who say "It's what's on the inside that matters", but it really does matter, a lot! Those with deficiencies in taking care of their life priorities will be prone to problems in life, and it makes them prone to dragging the rest of us into the holes in their life. I would love to hear you talk more about what you find on this subject, but I think your audience could only probably handle a sprinkle of this subject over time. In other words, even though I think this is such an important subject, I don't want to do anything that could contribute to you losing your audience... You help too many people out there to lose you! Peace Courtney!
Teddy needs to get a few of his buddies wearing cargo shorts and stop in all at once to see Courtney just to annoy her. ;-)
As a member of Team Cargo I support this suggestion
Thanks for the vid!
As with all great Courtney videos, great advice…starting with fashion and ending with philosophy
She makes such great videos keep them coming
Why do men in the comments go out of their way to say they get women but don't care about their own clothing? I get a feeling that they actually DO care and won't admit it because they're too insecure.
Classic,well cut clothing,dress, business or casual always gives the best impression.
It’s refreshing getting the point of view and helpful suggestions from a female. Extremely well presented. Thank you.
Thank you for your advice.... Listening and admit it to life. Made me look better and I'm more confident.
I wanna have a discussion with you ❤️ Above
Happy Sunday Courtney.
A week until Christmas!
Happy holidays! ❤️
Excellent video, as always.
Black and white with a touch of brown here and there, maybe some olive green. That's it. You can't go wrong.
Awesome content! You look cute and healthy!
I think fragrance and hygiene you mentioned is very important in my opinion. Bonus added on is your body type body structure. If you take care of your body, your body will pick the right suit that suited you perfectly makes you look expensive.
Dressing well doesn’t have to be expensive! The majority of my clothes are Falls Creek brand from Meijer. FC plain tees are my favorite shirt. Their no tuck button ups and chinos are great as well. I will spend more on shoes and dress shirts. Florsheim oxfords are very comfortable and look good, and Van Heusen dress shirts always wear and launder well.
I follow other style channels but Court gets priority!! 👏👏👏
🥹🤍
i wear the finest balaclava and i sprint at lonely women with confidence and they still dont want to talk
While it is incredibly important to look good, one should always know how to responsibly invest in their appearance. Plus, the item is only good if one feels confident when rocking it.
Absolutely!
You’re so funny, always on point.
Unless you are very fashion forward (and in that environment, probably, or smth artsy) or flamboyant, when it comes to colors it's usually better to stick with the earthy, solid and less flashy. They are more masculine and elegant, IMO. Browns, blues, greys, dark greens, black. Maybe some dark red (I love burgundy and wine). I know I have trouble steering away from all things blue.
I agree with the watch. I swap from my apple watch to my classic wrist watch when I am going somewhere nicer. while my apple watch cost 2x what my other watch does I like the look.
Hey Courtney, I was lucky enough to get some brooks brother's and Ralph lauren custom tailored shirts w, / the neck and shoulders tailored perfectly like they were made for me.
Love ❤️ the ladies from the lakeshore in the ritzy part of town.
Yes
Videos like these are why I subbed
🫡 thanks Joseph!
@@CourtneyRyan🤙🤙
Thank you! Thank you for saying about logos!! I have always hated big, garish logos, going around like a walking billboard. 👍
Hello, I really do appreciate this video a lot, you rock indeed. Wishing you a wonderful evening and upcoming week. Btw, I do work with clothes and have a butik in down town! Cheers 🎉🎉❤
Bring it Court, your on fire 🔥.!!!
I’m not cheap, or broke, but I wear some of these and I get women and never had a problem with that. Attitude and personality is by far a bigger thing women look for and care about
Congrats buddy your one of the lucky ones wheres i always treat them with respect but get nowhere
@@jamessmith7459careful before somebody say nice guy finish last
….tell the world that you didn’t watch the video without saying you didn’t watch the video….. do you pull models in your 2 decade old cargo shorts and DMB graphic faded tees? Lolololols sure you do buddy… someone’s gotta keep the uggos company…..
Then why are you watching videos like this?
I'm cheap and broke 😂
Hey Courtney, great video classy and elegant never goes out of style, can you make videos like this for women I think it will be helpful for younger women who want to elevate the way they present themselves.
Absolutely true… if it doesn’t fit you properly, it’s NOT going to look nice. When I was a teenager, I was guilty of this but I’ve learned my lesson lol
Healthy lifestyle paired with personal grooming or fashion style is best practice. Balanced overall look.
Thx, that's my wardrobe for 2024 sorted.
Any plans on making color theory video? That would be interesting.
I love your fashion videos👌
Tastefully done like always.
Yeah I agree with little to no logos or words on shirts. Especially those shirts that say things like Just Walk Away. Never Underestimate a Man Born in September That Has A Short Fuse and Is a Father
When it comes to bright or bad colour combos, it's fine to have a blue shirt on and black shorts right? Cause i think it's actually good. Please tell me if I'm wrong
great advice
As a short muscular guy 5'5 180lbs. It's definitely been quite slow in terms of finding things that work.
Important things: 0:29 First Thing ÷ Proportions Are Off; 2:43 Second Thing ÷ Over Accessorizing; 4:14 Third Thing ÷ Not Keeping Up With Grooming Habits; 6:35 Fourth Thing ÷ Too Much Fragrance; 7:34 Fifth Thing ÷ Excessive Logos; 8:57 Sixth Thin ÷ Trend Takeover; 10:56 Seventh Thing ÷ Bright Or Bad Color Combinations; 12:38 Eight Thing ÷ Wrinkles And Creases: 13:32 Ninth Thing ÷ Leaving Little To be Desired; and 15:17 to summarize all the told here.
I suggest that you should make a video of behavior and different things that men come across cheap, and my suggest that you should make a video of behavior and different things that women come across cheap as well Courtney.
Among the all the told here, I might add things what is also looking cheap as well. And can apply to men, and women as well. That is Tenth Thing ÷ Behaving Very Poorly (like showing that they are the center of the world, or some other inappropriate way of behaving's in society, etc.).
I totally agree that watching trends can be so hard, and annoying, cause it, very hard to follow them. And I can say that the Trend Takeover can also apply not just to clothes, but it can also be applied to hair, and bear styles (and to be honest, I don't like to see them like copy - paste). That can apply to either men, and women as well (like it or not). Also combination of clothes (in the case of not putting the right colors); putting too much things such as rings, necklaces, etc. can be applied to men and women. I always remembered one thing that my mom told me a thing when I was a little child. She told me this: "Son, don't dress up yourself to look like a parrot."
I think what have you told here Courtney, that can also be applied to women as well. I also don't understand putting too much fragrances (and that are doing, either men, and women as well). I understand that we have to smell nice (and certainly not to stink), but don't overdo it with fragrance.
I remember that I have seen once a quote that goes like (you can correct me if I'm wrong): "The best perfume (or fragrance, call it whatever you want) smell is the smell of a clean face."
Thank you so much Courtney ❤💙🤍.
bullet point list bro
@@bawseeeee602 Thanks a lot pal.
@@Harikejn your welcome, always space for improvement
@@bawseeeee602 🧐🤓😎
Hi Courtney! Can you do a video on men's dress and evening shoes? I'm looking to buy some formal black dress shoes to go with a suit but also some less formal "evening casual" shoes (brown, black, etc.) that would be great for an evening date or night out on the town. Something more elegant than sneakers but not super black-tie formal.
A lot of this is personal taste, but I don't want to look too dated. I prefer laces and good traction/soles on my dress shoes for safety reasons tbh, and I don't like the casual loafers and bows on churchy dress shoes that Baby Boomers wear, so I'll avoid those.
Thank you!
You're amazeballs.
I used to buy Men's Health for style tips and guidance 20 years ago. You are the better, honest, genuine replacement for that need.
Thanks for your vids Courtney, you are a real pro and a fun watch ;-)
If you don’t mind me asking. What watch are you wearing?
I'm 73 and agree with you in just about every category. How about the gym? An incredible array of style, color and functionality. Give it a go! I can help!
Thank you. I would like to see a video on “how not to come off as being cheep”. I am frugal (another word for cheep😬) some would say that I am cheep. I would enjoy seeing your take on the subject. Thx and Merry Christmas!
I'm just not a cologne person and just avoid wearing them because strong fragrances give me headaches same goes for perfume on women. Heck I tend to even avoid clothing stores due to the strong smells so it ends up being several battles whenever I go to malls and such.
Hey Courtney what hairstyles do guys like on girls? Cool video idea? The bump/quiff thing was cool lol
It's amazing how many guys check the boxes on multiple points at once. It's also amazing how many women let their man look like trash while they're squared away.
Happy Sunday everyone
Also an update I got a 96 on one of my finals
😂😂😂😂😂 Courtney you got dying over here.
you are a very smart lady
I use a toilette which has a higher oil to alcohol ratio so it lasts longer than cologne. Just one spray to the chest after a shower is plenty, trust me.
I like longer sleeves when I buy shirts. They shrink in the laundry after so many washes anyhow.
Hey Courtney could you do a video on how to overcome the scarcity mindset while dating. And can you include like Practical Tips for Guys that deal with this. I hear you mention men need to change our mindsets from scarcity to abundance But How does one do that? I struggle with this... I can't snap my fingers and *poof* new mind set.
Do you shut of the sources that are giving you the results that reinforce the scarcity mindset? a.k.a(dating apps)
Would you say ask women that you are comfortable around on first dates to just build confidence? (Being Respectful of Course)
Where are some low risk environments that you would recommend to practice this new mindset. (Like a gym of sorts where you can build you mindset muscles)
Before you start critiqing men or anyone else take a moment to reflect
on yourself. I dare say you've got a lot of work to do personally regarding
style.....fashion......hair and makeup. Have a nice day.
"Some of you might want to look cheap." Oh Courtney, thank you for being so accomodating. 🤣🤣🤣
Color is important: I invented the CyMK screen which does not emit on Blue, - which is believed to disturb sleep -. It is used in industrial printingl, but I never saw it on homr-printers. Time to give it a shot....
I wanna have a discussion with you ❤️ Above
I will say, despite my below comment, I do most of the things you suggest here. I wasn't doing it before I met my wife, but she whipped me into shape. And... she's not a gold digger. She saw my potential and brought it out.😂
No matter where I go, men look slovenly, including even in church. I dress in a rather casual style, nothing expensive nor exceptional, and I get compliments, not because I look elegant, but simply because I avoid looking shabby. It is a sad state of affairs in our society.
A little dab of cool water or drakarr.will do you good 👍😉
When it did work for me all i wore was jeans with boots and tshirt with light jacket and always clean shaved
Trim the nose hair. Trim, don’t pluck or wax, your eyebrows. Keep an eye on the hair on your ears, and trim. 😊
In high school, I was taking a trip with the family and my grandma and right before we left, I went to put cologne on and the bottle top came off and I spilled it all over my hands and shirt. I tried washing it off the best I could but we were leaving. About 10 mins into the car ride, the family was silently getting uncomfortable and agitated from the smell and from the backseat my grandma goes, "He's really trying to attract the mosquitos isnt he?". LOL.
Do you have a top 5 list of fragrances for different age groups? Like for men over 60. Sometimes, the $5 stuff seems more appropriate, but does it smell cheap?
Literally any time a woman reacts to or compliments my scent...it's Aqua Velva. Cool Water, Vintage Black, nothing.
@@mrsherwood2599 This is why Aqua V has been around for 60 years, and going strong.
You don't know how many times I've been to a classy restaurant and many guys dress business casual with dirty running shoes and ill fitting outfits.I mean seriously???
dear Courney. I'm a man with gray hair. could you please make a video about how to dress for gray hair and what color should I wear? thank you
I wanna have a discussion with you ❤️ Above
In my place, the talors aren't what they used to be. All they do is (often poor job) of fixing clothes, or make the larger ones smaller. They just dont make custom clothes anymore for some reason. You see some cool outfit online, but its not available at the stores, so you're "stuck" with whatever the store has at ofter overbloated price but with not so great quality. By the way cargo pants/shorts are awesome. It has the same function as your handbags (often a luggage size), that you ladies wear.
As for watches it all depends. I own several, originals one of which is quite expensive piece, but I wouldn't wear that particular watch everyday, but some of the less expensive ones. You just need to be careful not to get scammed with cheap copies that are priced as originals. I also enjoy pocket watches, they have that unique thing about them, but of course its not something that should be worn while jogging for example.
@-TeIegra.m_RealCourtneyRyan and why t.f. would I discuss anything with a scammer, pretending to be Courtney?!🤣
You're supposed to get the girl first and then let her play Ken doll on you.
Most men have a very utilitarian attitude towards clothing. Function over form.
If she wants the product bad enough, she's not gonna worry too much about the packaging.
Question about tattoos. 55 y/o here, not a gym rat but height/weight proportionate. Work in an office/cube environment w/a casual dress code. Would a flag tattoo on the forearm be appropriate?
That pink and green together looked like a bowl of sherbet ice cream 😂
Youre 100% correct on quality over quantity, clean and organized is where its at. Ponce-y brand logo shirts (et al) are ultra cringe-y and are IMO the epitome of tacky and needlessly and immediately make one look pretentious and materialistic, theres no real style there just posturing that falls flat.
I bought a pair of Trickers Stow brogue boots, there are brands for a fraction of the price with an identical look but Trickers will and do last a lifetime, a sweatshop boot will not...Ive had a pair of Danner boots, not exactly inexpensive but they are still in tip top shape after 30 years. Words to live by that have never steered me wrong: Spend the money once on quality or you'll spend repeatedly on trash. Keep it classy gents.
“Fit is King” I agree with that statement.
I wanna have a discussion with you ❤️ Above
I love watching your vids is there anything wrong with just wearing casual clothes
Can you add me for that
Looking cheap is good, it avoids gold diggers.
I wanna have a discussion with you ❤️ Above🛐🤦♂️
Fit Function Fabric
I literally just wear black t shirts from costco and northface khaki pants with a hidden leg pocket for my wallet. Fits in pretty much anywhere.

I enjoy wearing cologne
What about a lavender dress shirt, charcoal sweater, and black trousers? Also … what about a watch and Fitbit flex 2 (not band that it came with)? This is Andrew Keener.
Nice❤😊
Summer for me is flipflops and cargo shorts.
I don’t care if I look cheap.
Advice is OK until real information is provided. You provide 'real information. Well done and thank you.
I've worn nice clothes, fitted clothes, understated accessories, been in shape etc. I finally got comfortable in loose work pants, t shirts, dad sneakers or broken in work boots.
If you don't like the blue collar look, it's in both of our interests for you to not be attracted.
