Hey kids, it's prom season! I have some tips for you on not looking like a choad on prom night.

Click through for the tips.

  • Sneakers or cowboy boots with a tux ain't a new idea.  Be a man and put on some mens shoes. You're feet are gonna hurt like a sumbitch the next day, but welcome to the big leagues.
  • Get yourself some black socks. People who wear athletic socks with a tux look like tools (think-your dad in sandals with black socks)
  • Don't "match tuxes" with your bros.  You look dateless and desperate even if you came with a date but your friends are dressed the same way. Either match to your date or do your own thing.
  • Forget the tails. Tails are stupid and not even "retro cool".  It's just something flappy that hits you in the ass and makes you feel weird all night long.
  • "Tux shirts" are no longer funny.  Mow a damn lawn, get a couple of bucks and spring for the real thing.
  • Seriously, "a cowboy hat" with a tux?  Are you friggin' kidding me?  Why not wear a clown hat or a ski mask?  Wearing a cowboy hat with a tux is like buying a $50 steak then covering it with ketchup. Give yourself some credit playa, slick that hair down and do the prom for reals.
  • Do I really have to tell you to not get the "top hat and cane"? You're going to a prom, not a magic show.
  • Avoid all light colors and multi-color tuxes. You'll look like a skit on Saturday Night Live when you look back at the pictures. The same goes for "all white" you'll spend all night worrying that you're getting your tux dirty.
  • Avoid the temptation to go for the "Mafia look" (black tux/blood red shirt). It's just so overdone at this point.
  • The best thing to do is simple:  Get a black tux that fits well. If you're feeling it, get a cummerbund, tie or handkerchief for just a splash of color (or just hook up a single red rose boutonniere.  You're going to look cool, dignified and fashionable, not just on prom night but many, many years from now (plus you'll feel like a secret agent).

    What makes me an expert?  I wore a creme and brown tux to my prom.  I looked like an add for chocolate milk or something.  Since that time I've wore many a black tux and the reaction for women is absolutely amazing.  Classy never goes out of style.  Remember this above all: Your goal is to look AMAZING right?  So why would you put on a clown suit?  Step up and thank me later!
