Gifts for Men with Style Buying Guide

He's tall, dark, and handsome--or maybe he just pulls off his look through a perfectly put-together style and precise grooming. (Fun fact: men who are well-dressed and well-manicured don't just look good, they usually smell good too.) But staying GQ-cool isn't easy. For this sharp dresser to keep looking hot and staying in-the-know on all things hip, he's got to walk the walk and talk the talk. Here are some gift ideas  to suit his discriminating palate, from his everyday basics  to maintaining his pad  and dressing  like a star.

Daily Basics

We have compiled a list of basics that every man needs, and given it a touch of sleek style.  These gifts can't go wrong! 

Watches

A sexy timepiece  will not only keep him fashionably late, but it will also add appeal to any ensemble. 

Cell Phones and PDAs

Hot gadgets are a must-have, especially to store all his new phone numbers. Handheld video games are swanky, too.

Shave and Skin Kits

He has to keep his skin and hair looking silky smooth. What better way than with a high-quality cosmetics kit?

Cologne

No man is complete without the perfectly dashing fragrance  left to linger behind him as he leaves the room.

Sunglasses

From dusk 'til dawn, a fellow isn't complete until he has a pair of stylish shades  to keep him looking cool.

Looking Good

Buying clothing for the stylish guy is a task within itself.  But with our recommendations, your gift is sure to be a hit!

Blazers  are hip and versatile, but dark suits are always sharp and mysterious.

Hoodies  never seem to go out of style, so let him feel comfy and look good at the same time.

He could stash all of his stuff in a leather messenger bag  or designer duffel .

Have him keep warm in chilly weather with a designer cashmere scarf .

Many designers have created vintage inspired t-shirts  that are a great anytime gift.

Distinguishing Details

If picking out some stylish threads is a little bit too overwhelming, why not just go for a trendy accessory? 

Money clips  keep his green stashed in style.

An engraved sterling silver business card case  is polished and classic.

Designer leather belts  make any outfit look luxurious.

Silk boxers  can be sexy and sensual.

Designer cuff links  are the finishing touch to any suit.

A Pristine Pad

Want to buy something for his place?  Think about these trendy ideas!

An aspiring James Bond would love a set of classy martini glasses  for his bar.

Find something that he likes and get him his own annual magazine subscription , paid for by you.

Every trendy guy has a great watch, so with a leather watch case , he will have a styling place to store it.

With class comes culture and with culture comes wine. Pick up a modern wine rack  for his pad.

Nostalgia is fun and classy, so try framing him a vintage movie poster .

Extras

Whether they're a supplement to an outfit or a little something to toss into a gift bag, these extras are great for delivering that final touch.

The Book of the Courtier 

Baldassare Castiglione's 1507 fictional work poses timeless questions of virtues, etiquette and conduct in the royal court. A must-have for the man who believes that style goes beyond skin-deep.

Ties 

Yes, baseball-themed ties are the tried-and-true gift for your dad, but for the younger guy, let's try thinking outside the style box. For the sartorially daring man, a feminine color like pink or light blue will pop against the dark shades of an everyday suit.

Fountain Pen 

What happens when the Bic ballpoint pen he picked up off the street runs out of ink? A fountain pen obviates such embarrassing predicaments, and offers a timeless way to render important documents.

Laptop Bag 

A sleek, stylish laptop bag screams "hot business professional"--to about the same degree that the puffy velcro messenger bag shrieks "unimaginative IT dude!!" It's true, I've heard it myself.

Skull Cap 

The reality of blustery winds may be unattractive, but your man doesn't have to be. A streamlined skull cap is a neat and fetching way to stay warm.
