Virat Kohli shares ten rules of style

1Be yourself! That’s my mantra, no matter what you wear and how you look, never forget the real you and stick to it.

2Be casual with what you wear, never take your clothes too seriously! They are just meant to make you look good.

3Be confident about what you are wearing and back yourself up. Confidence is vital when it comes to style, you might be wearing the best of suits, but if you are not confident enough to carry off the look, then you will pretty much fall flat.

4Don’t think too much about what other people will think of you, if you are comfortable wearing what you are, then there is no need to be conscious.

5Don’t try and dress up too funny as well, keep yourself updated with the current trends and make sure that your wardrobe is in sync with it too. Dressing up in something that doesn’t comply with current trends can be very tricky.

6Personally, I don’t like to experiment much with shoes; I like white shoes and stick to them. One can perhaps have different shoes to go with different looks, whether formal, casual or party.

7For watches and sunglasses, I like to try different colours, these are the only accessories that men can pretty much wear. So, try to get as stylish as possible with them.

8My idea of casual wear is a pair of shorts and ganjis, I think men should experiment more with shorts, but only if they can carry off the look.

9For formal occasions I like to wear a pair of jeans with a black or a white shirt; I think jeans, when paired up with such basic coloured shirts, work well.

10My style is very chilled out and simple and I think keeping it simple makes you even more stylish.
