There is a fine line between complete tool and fashion forward? Learn to dance that line with this "helpful" back-to-school style guide.

1. Salmon shorts

While these may not have as many pockets as cargo shorts, I am sure you can find some place to put all the phone numbers you’ll get from girls.

2. Sport coat

These are actually a really important staple to a man's wardrobe.

3. Khakis

You can never go wrong with a nice pair of Khakis.

4. Sperry’s

Two words: foot stank.

Your feet may (will) smell like a dying animal after you wear these bad boys all September long.

5. Patagonia

This is a unisex style, both men and women should aim to resemble tacky curtains, coaches, etc. Bonus points if you cover yourself in plastic like your grandparents cover furniture.

6. Frocket Tee

The pocket on the t-shirt replaces the pockets you no longer have because you aren't wearing cargo shorts. Fashion forward meets functional.

7. Trendy Hair Cut

There are a lot of options when it comes to this one, however, choose wisely.

8. Dad Bod

Dad bod screams confidence in your own skin and success all in one pseudo-beer gut.

Additionally, here are some reasons the ladies love the dad bod.

9. Over priced polos

Vines. Brooks Brothers. Southern Marsh. Name your brand and your ridiculous price.

Try wearing them all at once to achieve the maximum effect.

10. Sunglasses/hat combo

Be sure to wear this with your khakis and sport coat to look like a complete tool while also slaying the game.

11. Bean Boots

Similar to Sperry's, these insulated boots will produce excess foot sweat; I recommend a good pair of socks and not ever taking them off in public.

12. Bow Tie

Think Grandpa-chic.
