Hey! I saw this comment right before I went to bed (hello 5 hours of sleep) and saved it, because funnily enough, you look really similar to me. I mean, really similar, although you're arguable better looking. So fuck you. Here's some advice:

  • I'm also 6'3", around 75kg. I'm one of those guys whose weight never changes. I can eat whatever I want (or as little as I want) and it's all static. As a tall skinny guy I'm guessing you're somewhat the same. With a body type like ours we need to draw attention up towards our shoulders to create a strong masculine figure. If you don't go to the gym already, start. Bench presses, seated rows, lat pulldowns and pec decks are all your friend.
  • The first thing I see when I look at you is a weak shoulder. This is partly due to you being thin, but is heightened by the an ill-fitting shirt. See here: http://i.imgur.com/qPlW0.jpg the straight line is where the seam of your shoulder should be; the diagonal line is where it currently is. As a skinny guy, letting the seam of your shoulder flow past your natural shoulderline (especially when you have epaulettes that accentuate it) you begin to look as though you're so skinny that no normal clothes will fit you. The shoulder slopes and curves down your arm, which is not a flattering look for a man. You need clothes that fit perfectly on the shoulder to create a strong, masculine figure.
  • Your sideburns are just a tad too long and risk going into 70s territory. I'd bring them up by half an inch.
  • As a thin guy, layers will always look better on you than thin, close-fitting clothing. Here's a guy with a similar height and width to you, who doesn't look it at all: http://i.imgur.com/lghkd.jpg Scandinavian (particularly Swedish) fashion is your friend, as the men there are naturally taller and slimmer and the clothes are designed to compliment this. Brands I'd recommend include Filippa K (pictured), J. Lindeberg, Acne, Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair, Dr Denim, Nudie and Tiger.

    Colours to wear:

    Never wear outfits that are light and bright, as these won't compliment your complexion very well. You have medium skin and dark hair - so use this level of contrast in your clothes. For example, instead of wearing a dark jacket with a white shirt, I'd wear it with a grey shirt instead to bring the contrast down.

    I'd avoid wearing black, and always opt for navy or charcoal instead as these will flatter you far more and harmonise your warm skin tone. Olive (as is your shirt), maroon, burgundy and lilac are great colours to bring into your wardrobe, and I'd strictly avoid anything like bright red, bright green, bright white - anything bright.

    I'd also try to avoid wearing stark crisp white, and instead opt for off-whites like ivory. This isn't so much of an issue so don't stress about it, it's just that a slightly off-white variant will always look better against your particular complexion than a cold, white shirt.

    That's about all I can muster at this hour in the morning, but there are plenty more tips in my book, Style for Tall Guys which will be of use to you if you want to read futher.

    Hope that helps mate, never be scared to post to /r/malefashionadvice, everyone there is incredibly helpful and can get you looking great in no time.
