#1 Don't Dress Like A Young Man Be very careful because a lot of tips are aimed towards a younger, fashion-forward crowd. I'm talking about undone shirt buttons, ripped jeans, and so on. These might look cool on 22-year-old male models but don't wear well on an older man. Ruffled hair and an untucked shirt will make you look like you've been woken up by a fire alarm.

#2 Find Brands That Suit You Don't be afraid to change brand loyalties as you age, especially once you hit the point where your body is changing in size and posture.  Clothing that fits well when you were younger may stop working as you age.  When it's time to replace something in your wardrobe, you now know exactly where to go.

#3 Be Aware of Societal Expectations A hard truth in life you have probably discovered for yourself is people do judge a book by its cover. People have preconceived notions of how a  man over 50 should dress. Whether you're in the dating game or looking for a promotion at work, these stereotypes can negatively affect your life.

#4 Own the Latest Technology This falls under the category of a man's accessories but it's important. Make sure you've got a good smartphone, observe basic phone etiquette and let people see you using it with confidence. This falls under the category of a man's accessories but it's important.

#5 Experiment With Classics To avoid looking stuffy, you want to develop your own personal style.  That means adding some unusual elements and experimenting a little. The  trick is to do it like an elegant older gentleman. When young men want to stand out they generally turn to counter-culture symbols: long or spiked hairstyles, tattoos, ripped  clothing and so on.
