Introduction 

• Social media has significantly increased the number of individuals and organisation who can influence your opinions, style and aspirations. There is a strong argument to say that there are now too many inputs and options in our lives making it more and more difficult to find what we really enjoy and relate to.
• It is with this in the forefront of my mind that I write this post. In this piece I want to highlight my favourite men’s lifestyle websites right now, with the aim of helping you cut out a lot of the rubbish out there and focus on those providing the highest quality and relevant content to millennial men, or for millennial women looking for inspiration for presents for the men in their lives.
• Listed below are my favourite 6 ‘Men’s Lifestyle’ websites, and the places I regularly dive into to ensure I’m up-to-date. What do I mean by ‘Men’s Lifestyle’? For me it incorporates the following sub-categories; men’s fashion (clothes, shoes), technology, home, outdoor inspiration, and modern male culture.
• If you’re interested to find out more on the problems associated with having too many choices and options in modern society, then please check out my post called ‘Paradox of Options’ here: http://jablifestyle.net/2016/05/07/paradox-of-options/
• I have similar lists for many other related things including the most influential bloggers for millennials and best personal finance sites around, and I will look to share more of these in the future. I find that having a defined starting point stops me getting swamped, put-off or distracted by cat videos when looking to productively browse the web.

Conclusion

• By creating and sharing this list I hope to achieve two things; (1) Provide you links to some cool, relevant and new content that millennials might enjoy (2) Highlight that you should create your own list of inputs you want in different aspects of your life.
• By defining and choosing inputs which you enjoy and relate to you will help keep the ‘noise’ away whilst still allowing you to find new inspiration and ideas.
• I hope you enjoy my suggestions and good luck creating your own, if you are looking for a little extra inspiration I suggest checking out my Twitter & Instagram pages to see who I am following and engaging with.
• Finally, I’d love to know if there are any sites you feel I’ve missed off this list, just post below!
