Top 10 picks
for gay teens

|
| OK, so you know you
need to look good, but you want to get there without
too much trouble, right? Here are our fave items for
teen guys, with links to where to buy them. |
|
1) Boot
cut jeans
Distressed, light wash, vintage, blasted, whiskered:
the point here is to buy anything BUT new-looking
jeans. The slightly wider ankle opening of the boot
cut flatters all body types. |
| |
2) Abercrombie
Flip flops
A summer staple, and a cheap way to shod your feet.
Just remember to keep toenails trimmed and clean,
and you'll be looking good 'til school starts again. |
| |
3) Oxford
shirt
Maybe you just know this shirt as a "button-down"
or a long-sleeve dress shirt. The "oxford"
part just refers to the special weave, which gives
the shirt lots of body and a slightly roughed-up surface.
We like it in classic colors (light blue, white),
unbuttoned and layered over a Tshirt (with the sleeves
rolled up). |
| |
4) Classic
Tshirt
Nothing beats a solid-color, crewneck Tshirt for versatility.
Layer it under an oxford or a leather jacket for instant
style. Load up on basic colors (black, navy, grey,
white) or go wild with a bit of color (turquoise,
orange) |
| |
5) Board
shorts
Dude! You'll look surfer-cool in board shorts (even
if your summer is spent poolside instead of at the
beach). We like this look in bright aloha florals
and batiks. |
| |
6) Messenger
bag
A little more grown up and urban than the back pack,
the messenger bag packs plenty of space for computers,
cellphones and gadgets. Keeps you organized and looking
stylish! |
| |
7) Visor
Hipper than the baseball cap, the visor comes in solids,
prints and logos. |
| |
8) Rugged
belt
A strong leather belt in black or brown is the perfect
accessory. Look for a buckle in a vintage finish (pewter,
brass) for that worn-in look that's hot. |
| |
9) Funky
shades
Groovy lens colors (yellow, blue) and aggressive styling
to complete your summer ensemb. |
| |
10) Silver
watch
Spend a little (around $15) or drop a bundle (over
$100): the choice is yours, but either way a stainless
or silvertone watch is a sure attention-getter. Look
for high-tech or sporty details, colored faces, even
digital displays to express your unique style. |
