Just as we all could use a little more money in our pockets and a little less fat in our diets, so too could most of us use a little more style. The Esquire Handbook of Style offers a handbook for men not just on looking good but on finding your own individual style. Style as defined by Esquire is equal parts fundamental basics and individual taste. The book addresses not just what to do but why. From hair care to stain removal, from packing for a trip to how to wear a scarf with elan, Esquire's handbook instructs without being overly cutesy or pedantic.

The 240-page book could just be your new best friend when it comes to looking great. We are giving away one copy of The Handbook of Style to one style-challenged reader. To enter, leave a comment telling us why you might need a little style help.

I need all the help I can get, I still don't understand the difference between casual and business casual.

Because I can't bring myself to throw away a polyester shirt.

I need it for one reason, I'm a typical man when it comes to style.

This would be for my best friend who wears white tennis shoes to the bar to pick up chicks...he needs help.

My style hasn't evolved beyond the "preppy" look of the 90's. Help!

Kunle Jan 13th 2009 2:33PM

Just in time for my inauguration ball!

I have read a lot of stuff on the basics of style, but have struggled to meld that with my personal tastes and lifestyle. Having young kids and working as an engineer do not lend themselves do being on the cutting edge, but there is similarly no reason dress in Levi’s jeans, Polo shirts and Rockport shoes 90% of the time. My lifestyle requires everything from active wear several times per week to the occasional tie for social events.

The day I need someone else to define my style for me is the day I'm being placed in a coffin and don't have any say in the matter.

Please don't not sned me this book as I'll probably just burn it! ;)

Looks like a great item for every fine gentleman to own!

Andrew Jan 14th 2009 1:42PM

Always need new ideas...

I am a freshmen in Law School. Including me, not a few students in law school know how to have style. Baggy slacks, uncomplementing colors, and even sagging polos. I would be humbled and thankful enough to have a chance to show my colleagues the necessity that in this generation, style or dressing up properly is important for it tells a lot of things about us. People meet people. And its the openness to one's style and a distinct impression that separates one from the other. Sincerest Thanks.

Growing up in a state with perpetual warm weather, I still haven't been able to create a personal style that's more grown-up and less casual. This book would be the perfect remedy!
