Problem: Article: Use a pencil to mark your height on a wall, then use a tape measure to get an exact measurement. Next, get your current weight using a bathroom scale. While the individual measurements associated with the suit are also important to get the right fit, your height and weight can help you estimate your fit. This is especially important if you're going to have your suit tailored, because height and weight helps tailors determine your "drop" of the suit, which is the difference between the size of the pants and jacket. Choose the type of shirt that you'd normally wear under a suit. This will help you avoid getting a jacket that's too snug. For example, you might put on an undershirt and a white dress shirt if that's what you normally wear. The over-arm measurement will help to find the width of the entire jacket, from shoulder-to-shoulder. Start your tape measure at the joint of one shoulder. Then, run it across the top of your shoulders, behind your neck, and to the joint of your other shoulder. When determining measurements, don't pull the tape measure tight. Instead, make sure it fits snugly around your body. This measurement is essential to get the right body-fit and a flattering cut for your jacket. To take it, raise both arms and run the tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, underneath both your arms. Go all the way around your body. Then, lower your arms to secure the tape measure and record the measurement. Your nipples are typically where the widest part of your chest is. Don't flex your chest muscles while taking this measurement, as this could make your suit fit too big. Place the end of your tape measure at the shoulder seam of your dress shirt. Then, slide the tape measure down your arm toward your wrist. Take the measurement at your wrist to find your proper sleeve length. You may also need to provide your coat in-sleeve measurement for a custom-made suit. This is the measurement of the underside of your arm. To get it, place the end of the tape measure in your armpit, then pull it down to your wrist and record the measurement. Put your arms down at your sides, with your hands relaxed over your hips. Then, position the tape at the base of your neck and run it down the front of your body. Stop when the tape reaches your thumb and take the measurement. Your jacket will probably end around your upper thigh area, depending on how long your arms are. Wrap your tape measure around the base of your neck, just above your collarbone. The tape should feel snug but not tight. Then, record the measurement. This will help you buy the right size dress shirt for layering under your suit.
Summary: Check your height and weight. Wear a dress shirt while measuring so your jacket will fit over it. Measure shoulder-to-shoulder to get your over-arm measurement. Raise your arms and measure around the widest part of your chest. Measure your arm from your shoulder down to your wrist. Get your jacket length by measuring from your neck to your thumb. Measure around your neck under your Adam's apple.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Lincoln may have had a lot of folk sense in him, but he never turned down an opportunity to look civilized and classy. His dress of choice was always a black overcoat. So long as the coat doesn't have any visible logos or symbols, you can use any black overcoat for this. Look at existing Lincoln costumes or pictures of the man himself and decide if any coat you have fits the bill. A grey vest underneath may help to round off your costume. However, if you can't find one of those, a white dress shirt will do. You may also choose to button up your overcoat. Lincoln's look is associated with fancy clothes and a big top hat. Top hats can be found at costume or consignment stores, or made by rolling black felt and gluing on a rim. Provided you're aiming for a traditional Lincoln costume, you should keep the hat black. Top hats often come with pre-fabricated Lincoln costumes. Although they won't attract as much attention as your coat or top hat, it's nonetheless a good idea to round off your costume with a good set of black shoes. The most important thing is that your shoes are black; this way they won't conflict with the rest of the costume. Shoes with a buckle are rarer today than they were then, but they also match the costume if you have them lying around. Lincoln wore size 14 shoes. Lincoln's father was a shoemaker. Lincoln was known to wear bowties. They are not commonly worn in fashion today but you can usually find them for sale at department stores and costume shops. Bowties don't need to be done up perfectly. Rather, an imperfect bowtie will give your costume that much more character. Lincolns bowties were obviously hand-tied, but pre-tied bowties are available as well if you don't want to bother with the tying process. To hand-tie a bowtie, loop the bowtie around your neck, leaving a few inches more on one side. Draw the longer end under the other side of your tie and loop it through the center, tightening it as you go along. Bring the longer end of the bowtie over the other end and pinch them in the middle, looping the longer end through a hole at the back. Tighten it gently.

SUMMARY: Find a black fancy overcoat. Don a tall top hat. Wear black dress shoes. Wear a black bowtie.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The easiest way you can act like you have a boyfriend online is by making posts about your relationship together. Publically compliment your boyfriend via your social media account, and keep your online social circle up to date about romantic nights you're not actually having. Don't go overboard with these posts, as they often tend to be annoying to other people, especially to those who are having trouble finding a relationship of their own. Whatever your reason for faking a relationship, do your best to make yourself feel the way you would if you were really with someone. Visualize the thoughts and feelings that normally distinguish being single from being in a relationship, and try to emulate the latter as best as you can. For example, being in a relationship may lead to you making cheerier posts online, rather than unhappy ones. Although people may be suspicious of a faked profile, a fake boyfriend will seem that much more real if you stage pictures in the real world. A picture as basic as two coffee cups on a table with an appropriate caption will make it seem like you're out doing things with someone special. Even if you won't have an actual boyfriend to photograph, the implication is often enough. A caption is a vital part of creating the illusion. Make it affectionate and romantic. For instance, if you have two coffee cups set up, you can say something like "Drinking my favourite coffee with my favourite guy." There are virtual relationship services that will give you the experience of having a fake relationship for a monthly fee. Upon paying, you'll normally get custom-made voicemails, cutesy texts, and a believable backstory on how the two of you met in the first place. If you need a quick way to act like you have a boyfriend, delegating some of the creativity to professionals may be the very help you need.
Summary:
Make statuses about your relationship. Act cheerful and upbeat online. Stage pictures that imply a relationship. Try a virtual boyfriend service.
