Newsflash: the Mans Top 10 Christmas list

Now fellas you know we weren't gonna leave you out. Here is the top fashions and accessories that you need to be asking for. Some of the items you may have seen in the other list but these are the manly versions. And ladies...consult this list too when your shopping for your boo. Again...we hope this helps you get a head start.

1. Boots: Mid boots, chukka boots, Shearling lined boots, boots with buckles, rugged looking boots, slip on dress boots...all types of boots. Step out this winter in style with boots. My fav right now are chukka boots. If you dont know what chukka boots are they are basically an ankle length boot with laces. Although Im sure your jeans or pants are going to be covering the top of the boot, they'll still give your fit a classic look whether you're going for casual or dressy. With a suit or with jeans, boots are it. Check out Cole Haan, Aldo or Johnston & Murphy for different styles and looks.

2. Leather gloves: The time of knit, sports gloves are over. Its time to step it up. Fellas get your grown man on with some leather gloves. Its best to match your gloves to your nice dress winter coat. You can still wear the knit gloves with sportswear like sweatshirts and such, but if your stepping out to a nice restaurant or event, leather gloves will be perfect. Try'em out at Dillards, Saks Fifth Avenue or Macy's by many different designers and different price ranges.

3. Military Coats: These coats give off an aura of manly sophistication and class. These will work perfectly with your leather gloves too. Check them out at Macy's, Cole Haan, and Express Men.

4. Plaid Shirts: This is not your average Farmers market plaid shirt...its a lot more cool. Try a plaid with a good mix of basic colors and a little more fitted. Now im not saying like skin tight fitted...jus make sure the shirt fits. Nothing oversized. Up your game. The days of oversized everything is over. Sorry. Check out Forever 21 and J Crew.

5. Messenger Bags: Attn: These are not man purses. They are messenger bags. They are large cross body messenger bags that can fit your laptop, books for class or whatever. Because I know that even guys need something to carry all their crap in on a daily basis. Find one in strong calfskin leather. Check out J Crew, Banana Republic or Cole Haan.

6. Shaving Kit: a nice leather shaving kit is awesome for traveling in style. Ladies a good idea is to put all your mans fav personal grooming products (deodorant, shaving foam, cologne etc) in the kit and give it as a gift. Check out Macy's, Cole Haan, or Dillards. Get all the essential grooming products at Target or Walmart.

7. cologne: who doesnt like to smell good. Like I told the ladies, go to Macy's or Nordstrom or whatever retailer and test some cologne out and see which one you like best. Let your girl know. Who knows it mite be in your new leather shaving kit. lol. Givenchy "Play" is an awesome new fragrance what was created with the help of Justin Timberlake. Check it out.

8. Wallet: Fellas I'm sure you already have a wallet but if it is old and busted, cards and money is falling out, and the leather is cracked and shredding, its time to get another one. Period. Check out TJMaxx for nice, low priced designer wallets, or like almost everything else, check out Macy's, Nordstrom, or Cole Haan for nice wallets.

9. Dark denim: Ok so I know most of you already have dark denim but if you dont...you need some. The days of light, bleached denim is over...and frankly has been over.

10. This one was pretty hard...I couldnt really figure out what is the number 10 thing a man should ask for for Christmas...so I figured anything electronic...that should make you guys happy rite???

Have fun with the list--a.k.47
