Fashion impresario Tom Ford had an intimate conversation with AnOther Magazine’s Jefferson Hack’s and the result was some interesting lessons on what it takes to be a modern gentleman. For those that are fans of the designer known for his legendary turnaround of Gucci you may want to take notes of his top 5 easy to follow instructions.

5. A man should never wear shorts in the city. Flip-flops and shorts in the city are never appropriate. Shorts should only be worn on the tennis court or on the beach.

4. Don’t be pretentious or racist or sexist or judge people by their background.

3. Manners are very important and actually knowing when things are appropriate. I always open doors for women, I carry their coat, I make sure that they’re walking on the inside of the street. Stand up when people arrive at and leave the dinner table.

For steps 1 and 2 make the jump over to TheWellDressedMan.net.

The Ass/Face Sponge was definitely created with a man in mind. After all, women know not to wipe their ass and than their face.

Slap on some lotion!

This might sound like a woman’s tip, but it’s not. Ashy skin is just not attractive. Plus, the appearance of good skin will make people think you really take care of yourself.  Think of lotion as your one stop shop to looking maintained. Put it on your arms, hands, focus on your knuckles, and don’t forget your cuticles.

Emergency Shirt

Always have a clean and crisp shirt ready for a last minute outing. Even if it’s laundry day, you must have your emergency shirt on reserve. Like my grandmother always said:  “You can’t trust a man with a wrinkled shirt.”  Keep in mind this shirt, should be collared, and preferably has epaulets on the shoulder. Stylish details add flair and make people think you had the time to pick something nice out, even if you didn’t.

Mints, Breath Strips, Something!

Fresh breath is key in being pulled together… this is too obvious. But consider a woman that has it all going on: perfect hair, good sense of style, nice smile, but BAD BREATH. That’s a killer. Be ahead of the game and have something to freshen your breath, in your desk at work or in your car’s glove box.

Sick Accessory

Men need only have one great accessory to make a statement. I recommend a nice watch. A watch can say a lot about a man, and can hint toward your taste level to women. It doesn’t have to be a Rolex, but it definitely shouldn’t be a Folex. No knockoffs, just find something that makes a simple, elegant, manly statement.

All four fragrances are based on a duo of ingredients that give a clear and precise signal from top to bottom. The sleek, translucent, modernized flask bottles of the Big Pony Collection are definitely appealing to the eye and worthy of any man’s collection.

Yeah, yeah, yeah… It’s 2010 and most guys know to cleanse, moisturize and use sunscreen. However, we think it’s safe to say that mankind could use a few more tips in the skill of taking good care of oneself. Here’s a list of 4 products you may not know you need.

4. Body Scrub

Body scrub will actually help to remove all the dead skin off your body and expose a layer of younger skin, making you feel fresh and rejuvenated. Yes, men – you too could feel fresh and rejuvenated. All jokes aside, sloughing off the dead skin cells is a great way to keep the skin on your body looking good.

Use a gentle body scrub once per week and remember- be gentle. You’re not scrubbing the floor.

3. Electronic Blemish Clearing Devices

Do you know about these yet? A blemish clearing device like the Zeno Hotspot (Whitney Port looks hot in the commercials), is a great way to zap zits right as they start to rear their ugly heads. All you do is apply it to your potential pimple and zap it. The device uses gentle heat to destroy bacteria that causes acne.

2. Pumice Stones

This one is for the guy who can’t bring himself to get a proper pedicure at a salon, and insists on wearing sandals. You know the dry ass skin on your heels isn’t cute, so get to work. A pumice stone water and soap will do the trick. Think of the pumice stone like a cheese grater for your feet, that gets rid of all that rough skin you got going!

1. Anti-aging Eye Gel

Wait, what? The older you get the more distinguished you look? That might actually be true. However, if you feel you’d like to keep the signs of aging from showing (those lines forming at the corner of your eyes are called crow’s feet), try using an eye gel. A small dot of gel or cream gently applied around your eyes before bedtime is all you need.

For the most part, women don’t want to be with a guy who takes more time than she does, when getting ready to go out (Jersey Shore guidette’s aside). But they do want a guy who knows how to take care of himself. How much is too much when it comes to your grooming and personal maintenance? Here’s Mankind Unplugged’s  fool-proof code to good MANly hygiene.

1. Hands and Feet – Keep Em’ Clean

You don’t have to hit the nail salon to pull this off. Just keep nails trimmed and neat.

The only time dirty fingernails are acceptable:

a. You just finished building your lady a house

b. You are an artist who lives and breathes his work, thus your craft can’t be washed from your hands

2. Hair Products – Crunchy Ain’t Cool

Women love a guy who knows how to maintain his hair. If you’re lucky enough to wash, go and your hair looks good, awesome! BUT if you’re a dude that has to use some product to get it right – DON’T OVER DO IT! Your hair should be touchable, not crackling to the touch.

TIP: How do you know you are using too much hair product?

a. It’s hard when you touch it

b. It looks wet all day long

3. Cologne – A Little Goes A Long Way

Women don’t want to be knocked over with your scent as you walk by. Fragrance should be part of your essence, not your whole deal.  Too much cologne can make it seem like you’re trying too hard, or remind a girl of her drunk uncle at the family reunion, pushing up on younger women. Bad, right?

TIP: Keep cologne to 2 spritzes. Spray it in the air and walk through it. This way your fragrance will be subtle and mysterious.

4. Mouth - Brush and floss. Duh.

For extra points, clean your tongue- that’s where all the bad breath causing bacteria hide. As for your lips, a little lip balm will do the trick. No one wants to kiss crusty, chapped lips, but buyer beware- they don’t want your mouth to look glossy either!

5. Facial Hair

The choice to rock a mountain man beard or shave daily, is really up to you. Some women like the rugged guy and some love the baby-faced. However, the one thing you can count on, is that no woman wants to see nose hairs. Period. Trim it. Trim it now!

A few days ago I posted a great video response from Old Spice to @Gillette on Twitter. Well, thanks to one of our readers, we were informed about a Gillette video making the rounds on YouTube that poses the question, “How Do You Like It Shaved?”

The video is a collection of responses from women who describe how they like “it” shaved. As they describe their perfect shave, the women make you wonder whether they are talking about themselves or their men. The comments posted on YouTube for this video are hilarious.

Personally, I DO NOT like it when a man shaves it all off down there. It’s a bit creepy and to be honest somewhat feminine for me. A trim is one thing, but completely shaving… well isn’t that for girls?

For those of you who insist on shaving down there, below is a handy “How-To” video from Gillette. Be careful!
