Got any fashion tips for a skinny dude?

I’m straight and a little goofy, so i haven’t payed attention to how i dress. I’ve worn a t-shirt and jeans every day of my life since junior high. But now i think i could have a little more self-confidence with the ladies, job hunting, parties and stuff if i had something else to wear. My biggest thing is i’m tall and skinny so i look like a skinny nerd no matter what i wear. Does anyone know a good way for skinny guys to dress without looking like they’re trying too hard?
If it helps, I live in hawaii, so no warm clothing suggestions plz. Also, it’s more of an urban environment than a preppy-type ascot-wearing place.

well, girls generally prefer guys with slightly long hair. most other guys complain about that kinda thing.

lol, dangit people! i don’t have a weight problem, i’m just fashion retarded. i’ve had times when i eat mainly pizza and ice cream and i’ve had times when i eat weight watchers/low carb diet food (because my entire family except me is on a diet) but i always weigh the same.

dont wear bright colors like hot pink, bright yellow, lime green
red is an exception
dont wear multicolored pants
the hair thing, different girls like different styles, what is your current hair cut?
if you wanna where hats, no beanies in the middle of summer, just makes you go sweaty, if you have longish hair, dont wear caps back to front
shoes, just go with sneakers, dont let them get too shabby, but your not really wanting spick and span either

oh, i see people telling you to eat food and stuff, dont go for junk food, its bad for your health and youll just start a bad habbit, your brain will also lack good energy and youll do bad in schol, true fact, your fine the way you are, lots of people want to lose weight, make good use of your metabolism and work out

DONT wear BAGGY its not gonna help! wear your size always. Wear Button up shirts. if your skinny, like me… wear NICE clothes. Look in GQ magazine and fashion magazines. IF you dress really nice, its gonna take the focus off you being skiny and divert it on your nice attire :)
