Gentlemen wouldn't you like to have this title? Well Bryant English has already taken the crown.

His impeccable style has the ladies taking a second look at his creative ensembles that he so effortlessly put together.  Ladies, we love men who have a great sense of style, but what is better than standing next to a man who compliments our own?

He said his inspiration comes from pop culture and even church. Bryant said he likes to battle the different stereotypes of dressing nice. 

Not only does dressing nice compliment you but it also gives others a chance to see the window to your soul, or should I say your fashion soul.  People will take you more seriously when they see you're all about business, mentally and physically.

"I think that dressing up often will help me get a job in the future, it makes you more presentable," English said.

English mentioned that men should venture out color wise; don't be scared to wear bright colors.

"I have a pink dress shirt and pink Jordan gym shoes," English said. "Don't blend in with the environment".

He gives credit to R&B artists Omarion, Usher and Chris Brown when thinking of celebrities who inspire him.

Dress your part. You may even want to incorporate your own signature look, as English definitely does. 

"My vests are my signature look," English said.

Fashion is all about taking risks gentleman; you should think outside the box when it comes to fashion.

"I like to wear tennis shoes with dress pants," English said.

He wears anything from Jordan, North Face, American Eagle, Buckle and Aeropostale, along with clothes from second hand shops.

"Don't be ashamed to go to Good Will, you can find a nice outfit," English said.

Wearing earrings isn't a thing just for the ladies. Some of your hottest celebrities were a pair of diamond studs in their ears, and English likes to incorporate this into his style.

"I like earrings, I think earrings add to your outfit," English said.

Ladies what do we look for in a man? Do we care how our significant other dresses?

Well this guy sure thinks so.

"I think that the opposite sex cares what their significant other is wearing. It's kind of shallow but it's true," English said. "Girls sometimes don't like guys who dress sloppy all the time".

He has a couple of do's and don'ts for you fashion rookies out there.

Always smell good, stay moisturized, have confidence, wear only dress socks with dress pants and a good pair of shades can top off anything.

Never wear pants that are too short, never wear white socks with black gym shoes and most importantly, never wear stripe shirts with plaid shorts.

"Do you; make it your own and be confident in what you're wearing," English said.
