Punk Rockabilly



What do women want? A bad boy with a modern edge, or a loving man with classic style? Get the best of both worlds with vintage influence from the 1950's era. Channel your inner James Dean with a pompadour, tattoos and a bad attitude.  The hottest hairstyle right now is short on the sides and long on top, according to the 2013 GQ men's hairstyle guide. This is perfectly compatible with the 1950's slicked back hairstyle, but try to go easy on the hair gel. Women will be fighting to run their fingers through your hair, so don't turn them off with stiff, greasy hair.

Get your hands on some basics first: a fitted white t-shirt, a slim-fit light jean, and a leather jacket. Go vintage with button-up cardigans and wayfarer glasses, or find your edge with a leather jacket and a new tattoo.  Shoes are the key for pulling of this look: avoid sneakers, sandals, and loafers. Opt for an oxford shoe or any lace-up dress shoe.


Take a look at this Men's Health article for more information on how to rock the rockabilly look.
Here's a full proof test: Before you leave the house, ask yourself, do I look more like Don Draper in Mad Men, or Danny Zuko in Grease? Trust me, John Hamm is getting all the ladies.


Happy Hunting,
Mr. Darcie
