Mr. Shut It Down's World Flyness 101: Lesson #2 FLYNESS ETIQUETTE



Hello planet Earth, Mr. Shut It Down is back for this week’s topic of discussion which is FLYNESS Etiquette (Do’ s and Don’ts) so let’s get to it class…..

There are some essential fashion Do’s and Don’ts that one must follow and abide by in order to be FLY..
Fashion Do’s

•Knowing Fundamentally, this is just matching but knowing what colors highlight or compliment one another is essential. You have to have a keen eye on how to put colors together.

•Being a trendsetter is necessary. When everybody is going right you go left. Standing out from the crowd adds to the impact of your Flyness. For example, you know when going to a club that almost everybody is going to be wearing a button-up so you can switch it up and where a sweater or if you know everybody is going to be rocking a tie go with a bow tie instead.

• You must always be on the lookout for things that are exclusive and next level so that you’re always several steps as your admirers then once they finally catch up you’re on to the next one. Flyness is all about being original and having exclusives is the epitomy of FLY.

• Never underestimate the power of dress rehearsing your outfit because the last thing you want come time for its debut is find out that something doesn’t match or fit so always plan a little ahead in case adjustments are needed.

• The use of accessories such as jewelry, hats, & belts adds subtlety to your Flyness that can kill the competition ever so softly.

Fashion Don’ts

•Don’t match brands just for branding sake. Just cause you have on an outfit all from the same brand doesn’t make it hot.
•Don’t wear your best outfit on some random day then when it comes time for that big event you wear some bullshit. (Excuse the language)

•Don’t wear no dust bunnies. These are dirty shoes, wrinkled kicks, or torn up sneakers to a function.

• Don’t wear or buy wack shit just to be different and standout because wack is still wack at the end of the day.

• Don’t forget to take off all tags and make sure everything is in place because you don’t want anything to take away from your outfit’s first impression that makes or breaks the outfit for the night. Don’t be so fly that you can’t be humble in case you get caught slipping.

Mr. Shut It Down's World: Flyness 101

Hello world, my name is Mr. Shut It Down. I am Mr. Shut It Down because whenever its time to get dress for an event I am trying to shutdown the whole event with my attire and I am always successful as being one of the best dressed individuals whenever I step out for a function. I gave a lecture on FLYNESS in college for AKA Playboy pageant and became known as a tastemaker of FLY. So I will be educating you on the fundamentals of being FLY. Why? There are some people who want to be FLY and don't know how, there some who think they're FLY but have no idea and there some who are FLY but just need someone to let them they have the FLY seal of approval and to continue do what you do. So lets begin because class is in session.....

What is FLYNESS?
Flyness is not a thought, it is a combination of confidence marked by compliments and expressions of ones self.
Flyness is exclusive, wanted by many but achieved by few. It is always imitated but never duplicated.
Flyness is a type of of crisp, clean, & classy swagger and style that has never been seen before.

How do you know when you are FLY?
• Fly is when you got the best clothes in the club, party, or social function.
• Fly is when all eyes are on you when walk into the place.
• Fly is when you receive several double takes at your attire.
• Fly is when you receive compliments on your attire.
