The Sagittarius man is no stranger to casual dress but he also cleans up nicely and usually knows how to clean up well! Sagittarius-dressing men are sophisticated in their choices and often up to date on their wardrobes. They look rockin’ in the new plaid shirts that are a bit fitted on the body and that work well with fitted jeans.

Since the Sagittarius man is active he needs jeans and the new jeans are thin cut but not “skinny” as those are for another type of man! Sagittarius has a bit of the international about his style and likes to be prepared to go anywhere he has to go and have the clothing to do it! Because of this he often has a couple wardrobes, one for casual dressing and one for being a bit dressed. He also goes for unique pieces that he can find at thrift shops or men’s boutiques!

Sagittarius men are somewhat clothes horses at times and will not be cheap about their wardrobe if they truly like the item no matter what its cost! He also has a casual wardrobe that is perfect right down to the hoodie that fits him completely! A Sag is often a fan of wearing a shirt from his university or a university sports team he likes, so he has a wardrobe that includes sweatshirts and T.’s that have names and places on them or if he doesn’t, he should! Many Sagittarius men don’t dress unless they have to because they are so active they stay in clothes that they can get dirty in or be athletic. The idea here is to find the style of the Sagittarius man who has to dress for work or dresses because he likes to.

The Sagittarius man keeps up with trends enough to look nice and does not fall behind the wheel of fashion too far. He often wears shirts that button but leaves them out to be more comfortable which is very in right now and looks great.

Having a few good jackets is important for Sagittarius dressers because they give a boost to their look and add a richness they enjoy. A Sag does not like to look cheap no matter what they wear so adding a few blazers is a “must” when building a wardrobe for them! Having a blazer in khaki, blue, black and brown would be best and rotating them with pants in those colors without matching them would be best. Never wear a navy blazer with navy pants and mix up your colors when it comes to pants and blazers. Buying pants in the above colors with flat fronts and thin to boot cut legs works best for Sag. Sagittarius has enough T.’s to last him his life so building a wardrobe with T.’s is not a good idea. If you are going to get dressed do so in shirts and leave the T. shirts for those casual times you often find yourself in.

Shirts that are made of cotton or cotton/poly blend are best for Sag because they wash well and can be dried or hung on hangers to dry. The idea is to take your shirts out of the dryer when hot so they don’t wrinkle and you shouldn’t have to iron them. A wardrobe has to wash easily for Sag because they are too busy to iron their shirts or pants and dry cleaning takes too much time for them because they want their clothes back in a hurry! Having a press set in the pants is best so check the finish when you buy pants to make sure they are machine washable and can be air dried or put in the dryer. The idea is not to wash your clothing too much because you break down fibers, so change into that vast casual wardrobe you have when you are at home and hanging around.

Sagittarius likes to look good wherever they go so having this wardrobe in shirts and pants looks best but add a couple pairs of jeans for changes that are better jeans and not those that hang off you because you always have older jeans in your closet! Buy some jeans that are fitted better and that are cut to the body in a dark wash for the times you are dressing to go out. A dark wash looks nicest when paired with shirts and is in when it comes to pants. You can make a light wash work but it tends to look too casual for events and places where others will be dressed well. You can throw one of your blazers over your jeans and a shirt and be ready in a minute so you will stay with your idea of dressing fast and making it work!

If you dress for Sagittarius bold colors are great for you when it comes to shirts. You sport color well and understand it so prints that are bold are great and colors like red, bold blues, bold green and even gold look fantastic on you. You don’t mind the attention and colors draw people to you so keeping yourself in color will pay off. If you choose patterned shirts try to find those with smaller patterns but in bolder colors. Bright colored patterns in blue and black are great, for example. You don’t want to wear color blocked shirts but you do want to find smaller prints that have a punch to them. Don’t be afraid to add color if you are not wearing it now because you will find you are happier in color that has a punch to it and you will also find that people are more likely to talk to you which you love!

There are some Sagittarius men who go a bit too fashion forward with their look and turn out trendy. I put this warning here because too trendy clothes can look like a fashion accident and classic with color is the best look for you. If you stay in the classic family and play with color and prints you will fare better in the long run and not regret wearing anything in any era. Steer clear of anything that is too off the wall and if you go for something unique try to go for things from other eras such as long car coats or the like! A Sag can get away with dressing in vintage shirts as long as the style is classic and can shop thrift if they look for clothing that was classic in its time. Often a Sag man will look for these conversation pieces to put in their wardrobe because they start people talking which they love so go ahead and shop the stranger stores to your hearts content if that is the way you lean.

Accessories like scarves look fantastic on the very adventurous Sag so think about a small wardrobe of scarves to wear with your blazers and shirts. You look very international in scarves and they can add a pop of color and again, start conversations, so stock up on them even if you shop in vintage stores for some very different looking scarves. You also look great carrying a “man bag” or an over the shoulder bag for your computer and can pull the bag off very well so consider buying one or at least trying one on for size!

You can rock a trench coat very well since it is also international in it’s look so see if you can find a trench in a very common color to wear in the right season which is almost all the seasons! You can layer a coat over a trench or wear a sweater under a trench and it looks fab so think about buying one! Sweaters over your shirts with collars is the last thing I’d like to touch upon because the “student” look is right for you! The “professor” look also looks great on you so think about tweed blazers and the like. Wearing sweaters in solid colors over your shirts with your pants looks great on Sagittarius dressers and they can pull this look off all their lives. Looking the “student” works well and later you can class this look up and go for the “professor” style.

Sagittarius men make great shopping partners and can also have something to say when it comes to their partner’s dressing so take one along with you if you know a Sag man or a man who dresses for Sag!

Sag shoes run the gamut and a Sagittarius can sport just about any shoe they like. The Sagittarius dresser is choosy about his footwear because he is on the move so often so he should shop for a few styles to change it up now and again. The Sagittarius needs a tennis shoe for his sporting days without question so he should buy a quality pair that will last a long time and buy a cleaner for them so he can keep them looking great. It is important that he has the tennies for his fast moving days and when he is lounging.

A Sag looks great in a boot of any kind but buying boots is a tricky thing and he does not want to buy a boot that does not work with all his clothing. A brown boot that is dark enough to wear with black is great because it works with just about every color so think about dark brown when it comes to boots. A Sagittarius man moves fast so his boots should not have a lot of embellishment that can get caught on his pants as he walks. Sag men tend to take long strides and move well so his shoes should fit well and give him room to spread his toes for balance! Buying boots that are not too heavy at the sole is important so he can keep moving fast so think about boots with thinner soles to give you lighter feet.

Shoes for Sagittarius-dressing men can be espadrilles or loafers all the way to boat shoes! A pair of shoes that slip on is important for them because they look sporty and are speedy to put on! Slip on walking shoes in leather with very little decoration are great because the Sag does not like to be defined by his clothing. Loafers that are preppy cut or boat shoes work great for Sag because they work with their look and go about anywhere, anytime. Staying away from too much color in your shoes is the way to go and if you do buy color try brown with a touch of navy, for example, because it works with everything and looks classy.

A Sagittarius man will spend the money on the clothing that suits his lifestyle. He is not cheap when it comes to the goods for his sport or his job if that is his sport. If a man dresses for Sagittarius he needs a certain budget to keep his wardrobe up to date and will like shopping for new things from time to time. It all depends on where a Sagittarius man does his socializing when it comes to where he will put his money. If he loves his job and must dress for it he will make his wardrobe perfect for it. If he is a student he will appear in the perfect student wear. A Sagittarius man is not one that likes to be defined by what he wears so he will make sure that he not only appears to fit in but also is not exactly like the others so he will present a bit more international than everyone else. Again, a Sag man can be a bit of a clothes horse when it comes to what he loves to do unless he is a computer geek because in that case he will dress that part as well!

Sagittarius hair is usually casual and very easy to do. A Sag man does not like to sit in front of a mirror every morning getting his hair right so he will have his hair cut in a style that is kept up so it works every day exactly as he likes it. He may want it longer to show that he is easygoing and in that case he will have a long cut that is designed to show that he is casual. The Sag dressing man will have a few baseball caps sometimes to cover his hair when it is not behaving because it’s a great trick when one does not want to deal with their hair! The longer and curlier styles look good on Sag men if they have the hair for it and if not they should look for cuts that can be washed and worn with very little effort and product applied. They can stand to use a bit of paste or wax on their hair if it’s fast and looks good but that’s about the extent they are willing to go.

A Sagittarius man likes to look pulled together for events or dates so he will have a way to do his hair that is nice if he needs to “clean up.” Having a shorter cut with the front doing something is about his style if he has short hair or a cut that lifts in the middle. Sagittarius likes to be in the style in a way that is “now” so he will know how hair is cut these days and try to stay in the style that is modern. The idea is the fastest way out of the door is the bet way for him to wear his hair! Swiping the front of your hair up in the morning is a fast way to go or having your curly hair cut in a style that will fall as you want it to after you shower works too. If you have curly hair think about using a product on all your hair that will keep it in place all day like a paste, for example.

Rubbing product on your hands and then pulling it through your wet hair will work to keep your hair looking nice if the product is a conditioning product as well as a holding product. Investigate hair product to find the fastest way to go and talk to your hairdresser or barber about styling so you have it in your mind how to style fast and perfect! Sag men care about their hair although they don’t like to admit it but are so active that they have to have a way to wear their hair when they don’t have time to do it. This hurried way of living is why they often have a collection of baseball caps or have a short haircut. Whatever way you wear your hair if you are a Sagittarius dresser, go for speed and do yourself a favor!

The Sagittarius man is so active that taking care of his skin is very important. He is often sporty and has time outside so he needs a skin care regimen that is fast and that will protect his skin. Wearing an SPF product is very important if he spends time outside, so if you know a Sag-dressing man who needs this make sure you gift him a product to protect his skin! Finding a product with an SPF of at least 30 when outdoors is very important even if it is over cast outside! The sun can still do damage if you live in a place where it rains a lot and remember that cold weather can dry the skin and make it blotchy. Many Sag men have skin that looks like it’s seen better days and that has the wear and tear of the outdoors on it. The best way to go if you are a Sagittarius man is to use a product on your face to protect it even when you are young to avoid the tell tale blotchy skin that a Sag can have! A moisturizer is important so you need an SPF moisturizer first and foremost. If you are at the beach a lot or a swimmer remember to apply the product again after getting out of the water! I can’t tell you how often I can identify a Sag man by his worn skin so this it is very important to focus on skin care. If you already have some damage from the elements on your face go ahead and research products that will repair that damage and remember to see a dermatologist if you have any problems with your skin you can’t solve. If your skin is red and blotchy there are lotions that will help with the problem so don’t give up on your skin! If you are a Sag that shaves your head for speed getting dressed remember to protect the skin on your head as much as the skin on your face! Skin everywhere needs care on the Sag man so if you know one who is not taking care of it help him out and turn him on to product!

The Sag man has two looks and one is very casual while the other is very pulled together and a bit worldly. The idea is to organize these two looks and know what goes where! Have your wardrobe divided into groups to help you get dressed at the speed you love and make sure when buying clothing you know what you will wear with what! You may end up with pieces you can’t match if you buy on a whim which is something you do from time to time so think before you buy and even put the item on hold at the store for an hour or so while you think about what you will do with it! You often like to help your partner dress so remember to let your partner show themselves in their clothing and not your style so they feel good in their clothing. The Sagittarius man is one of the most generous of the signs so often their partners are dressed well from gifts given to them by the Sagittarius dresser!

Cappy men or men who dress for Capricorn can often teach their S.O.’s something about dressing and some must be careful not to out dress their partners! The classic suit man, a Capricorn dresser who must wear a suit to work or a tie is one that will collect the proper style tie and stay up with the trends that affect those that wear more formal clothing for work. Here we focus on the Capricorn man who is upwardly mobile in his work and is always looking for the next position! The Capricorn dresser should stay with classic shirt colors that suit his coloring. Pastels work fine for Capricorn dressers with a focus on earth colors and those colors found in nature. Greens, blues, browns and beige all look nice on Capricorn men.

Shirts that are tailored to the body look best when dressing for work and one should try shirts on to see how they fit in the body and not just the neck. If one has to wear a shirt to work every day he should find one or two brands that fit him well and buy them in multiple colors to keep things organized and a Capricorn dresser wants to be organized! Find those shirts that fit at the neck well so when you wear a tie it looks nice and well fit while not too big or too tight. A shirt should fit at the shoulders to the point where the seams hit the shoulders where they should. The neck should fit well and have room to move but not too much room that they look like your big brother’s shirts!

Ties are often required for a Capricorn type dresser so think about ties in classic colors and try to mix from one to three colors in your ties. A thin tie looks right with body-fitting shirts so don’t go too wide in your ties and don’t make a silly statement with your tie if you are dressing for Capricorn. Capricorn sometimes makes an example of themselves in the work place as to how to dress and takes great pride in their presentation of themselves. Ties should not be too showy or joke ties and they should be classic but not so worn as they are what everyone else is wearing. Shop for ties at better stores to find those that work for a tie can be like a woman’s jewelry in that it sets the clothing off that you are wearing. A Capricorn man is usually picky about his ties and has a place or two that he likes shopping for them. If you want to gift a Capricorn man who wears a tie to work you should shop the better stores and ask for assistance if you are not aware of what sort of tie is worn these days. Again, a thinner tie looks best now because clothes are more fitted. There are many careers where a tie is not needed but a Capricorn dresser may wear a tie anyway because he loves to dress well and be seen as a good dresser. If he is the type that loves ties he should indulge that love and set a great example while enjoying himself while he dresses.

Pants should be classic-colored and fitted in the leg while not being too baggy at the thigh. These days pants are cut to the body for men by many companies so the Capricorn man can find pants that suit his body very easily and again should find companies that make pants that suit his body and buy them in multiple colors. A certain formula can emerge for the man who dresses for Capricorn that consists of pants, shirt, tie and blazer if he does not have to wear a full suit for his work. A Capricorn dresser should think in terms of classic colors for pants like navy, black, brown and deep greens. He can mix and match is shirts with these fitted pants by wearing khaki colored pants with beige shirt or navy pants with a pastel blue shirt that takes its color from the sky, for example. Add a tie that does not completely match the pants and shirt and throw on a classic cut blazer with lapels that are not too wide. Thin lapels look more classic and better these days with the more formal career wear so keep that in mind when buying jackets.

Wearing a bomber with your shirt and tie is a “no no” these days and staying with the classic cut blazer is the best way to go. One can get away with about four blazers for work if they are different colors so again, go with natural colors that are found in nature to ground yourself. A Capricorn dresser never quite feels dressed if he is in a color that does not ground him so he should keep nature in mind when choosing colors. A Capricorn wants to be seen and not blend in but not in a way that is wild so he needs to feed that need to feel comfortable and so he can forget about what he is wearing and focus on doing the best job he can so he can keep moving up in his career which is his real love! If you work at a job that you must wear a suit for you want to choose the very best suit you can afford to keep yourself well dressed and as upwardly mobile as you love to be. You also love to be dressed for anything thing comes your way and make an impression so choose the very best suit your budget allows and try to invest in at least four if you must budget to do so.

Buying quality suits is very important because they will take you far and take you anywhere you need to go! Fabric is number one when choosing a suit and even before cut! The fabric of your suits should be quality and a blend of real fabric or as much natural fabric that you can afford! The Cappy dresser should, if he must wear a suit, choose wool that does not scratch and silk and cotton mixes that don’t crinkle for spring and summer. The Capricorn man usually does not like linen suits because they are made to wrinkle and a Cappy does not like wrinkles! The fit of the suit should be slim and the jacket well-fitting. Try on many different styles to find your suit type and take the time to shop around if you don’t find the right one immediately. You may have to have it tailored a bit so don’t balk at tailoring and go ahead and let them take it in where you need it to make it fit just so! If you must live in a suit make it a classic color and don’t go out on any limbs that could mark you as an attention seeker or the like! Navy and black are classic colors for suits and I know plenty of Capricorn dressing men who are Armani wearers for their suits, although very expensive, fit very, very well and are relaxed. There are “knock off’s” of Armani’s style suits that aren’t bad in every price point so if there is a designer of men’s suits that you love don’t be afraid to shop the lower numbers for what you like! Try to stay with a couple of suit cuts to vary your wardrobe and remember to mix up those shirts and ties if that is your work uniform!

If a Capricorn dresser does not need to dress for work in a suit or a tie he will be well-dressed at work or at play while having a casual wardrobe that is very well-planned as well! Some Cappy men can get away with shirts and pants at work and if that is the case they should stick with the rules above regarding shapes, fabrics and colors! Wearing a shirt that buttons instead of a T. shirt is just as easy and can be just as comfortable at casual jobs so if you are a Capricorn man and dress like on don’t give in to the T. shirt ordeal and go ahead and pack your closet with shirts with buttons on them! Leave your shirt tail out if the job calls for it but think in terms of classy colors for your shirts like jewel tones and nature colors. If you wear just a shirt and pants with a casual blazer you can go a bit wild with color and wear a few crayon colors to pick things up because dressing up casual dressing is about adding bold color to your look! Think in terms of red with khaki and gold with green khaki. Think about adding bright green to beige pants. There are ways to dress nicely while in a casual work place and Cappy men are the type to do it. Men who dress for Capricorn also dress well for their chosen sport if they are the sporting type. Having a working wardrobe for their sport is important so they “look the part” when doing what they do for recreation. Lastly, if a man is Capricorn and does not dress well he is dressing for another part of his chart!

As much a Capricorn-dressing men know that “clothes make the man” they also know that men are judged by their shoes! Shoes that are well made and in the right style for the way he dresses are important to the man who dresses for Capricorn. He usually has a wardrobe of shoes for every occasion including well made shoes that work with a suit and shoes that work well for his daily job. If he wears a tie to work he would do well with a shoe that ties and is made with a wider toe to keep him grounded and comfortable but not too casual as to not work with his ties and shirts. Well made shoes that tie are made of soft leather and should be one tone, one color and have a sort of sheen to them to help them dress up the look. If one is wearing not so dressy pants but wears a better shoe the whole look is elevated so Capricorn dressing men should think about investing in shoes so that they look very professional in them. Better made shoes cost a bit of money but they pay off in spades as they make your whole look classy and a Capricorn man loves looking classy and classic. Classic cuts of shoes are best so one that ties and is an oxford type shape but not embellished is best. Having a pair of boat shoes or slip on shoes is also a good idea because he can wear them when he is toning down his look. Taking care of shoes is important when dressing on this level so knowing a cobbler is important for a Capricorn dresser.

Having shoes cleaned every now and again is good and if you decide to do them yourself make sure you stock up on professional product to clean them with. It’s best to treat a new pair of shoes with a leather protector before wearing them so prepare them by spraying them with protector or rubbing some one. Polishing shoes can get hard for some people so the Cappy man can drop his off at the cobbler and have them polished especially if he has two pairs of each kind of shoe! Stocking up on shoes is so important to dressing classy and forgetting to wear a good shoe is a fashion accident for a well dressed man! A pair of tennis shoes will also be needed for visits to clubs and Capricorn men often have occasion to visit a club here and there. Again, if he is a sporting man, for example, a golfer, he should have all the trappings of the sport on hand to make a good impression. The Capricorn man loves to be ready for whatever occasion should come up so he probably has all he needs to enjoy himself at whatever he does for fun.

The Capricorn dresser has his hair in a practical cut that is fashionable and easy to care for. Usually a short cut that might have a slight lift at the front, a Capricorn man wants his hair to look professional and have it work every morning no matter what! He knows his hair products and usually has a hair stylist cut his hair and has it cut on a regular basis by the same person. He knows that hair says a lot about a man’s life so he has a cut that says he is professional and able to do his job very well.

Not a peacock, he will not go for a trend until it is a regular cut and very, very popular! He is not one to have hair that stands out because he wants to be known for his work and may even have an old fashioned type cut that parts on the side that he has worn all his life. Being traditional is what it’s all about for this man so he is not taking any chances with his hair. Keeping his hair looking healthy is important for him so using a conditioning product is a good idea for Capricorn dressers. Finding a product that keeps hair in it’s place but adds a bit of shine is a good idea but stay away from the oil slick that can happen when using hair oil!

If the Capricorn man has facial hair it is rare and if he does it is very well groomed in a very classic fashion. Using his facial hair to cover a flaw is the only reason this type of man grows facial hair so he most often shaves his face clean. When one shaves his face often he needs facial products to care for his skin so if you know this type of man you might turn him on to skin care that will keep his skin glowing if he shaves daily! A moisturizer is important to use on the beard area of the face and wherever he shaves. A Capricorn man usually does away with using scent but if he works in an upper end area he will use a very classic scent that is very slight and does not enter the room before him! Always clean and classic, this type of man could do an ad for men’s wear and keeps himself up!

There is one type of Capricorn-dressing man we cannot forget. This man is so earthy and makes his living dealing with the earth. He may be a farmer or a logger or anything that lets him work outdoors and keep his head calm. This type of Capricorn man will turn his back on anything to do with fashion and wear just about anything! This Capricorn-type dresser usually works for himself and loves being his own boss and dressing however he wants. He is usually very successful at his own business which does not require him to dress but is very earthy in it’s inclusion and lets him commune with nature every day. If he is this type of Capricorn that turns his back on working for another and works for himself we can count on him to wear just about anything and never feel he has to dress! This Capricorn man bears mentioning because he appears now and again. The self employed Capricorn man’s style is his own and anything goes for him while he remains quite proud of himself!

I'll take a peek at the women's fashion one next.

I personally like the looks that they had for Capricorn best under the men's articles. (Then again, I have Mars there, plus I'm a big fan of Cary Grant and yeah I wish there was like a Cary Grant School or something that would teach men style and manners, but I digress).

I'm a big fan of suits, especially on men, but on women too. I only have one, and it's not designer or expensive or anything, but I feel powerful wearing it and I love that.

Even with casual looks, I like "nicer casual". And even with jeans, when jeans are required (not a fan of jeans; only have two pairs and really only wear one of them when jeans are what I'm supposed to wear), I like dressing them up a bit. Only time I do sweats or pajamas or workout clothes is at home. I hate seeing those in public. That, and sagging pants. I hate that! Doesn't look good on anybody!
