We all make fashion errors now and again, but several fashion mistakes made by men are just unpardonable and downright illegal. Based on personal experience, I have summarized eight common fashion mistakes by men to shun at all costs.
Socks with Sandals – Who decided this was okay in the first place? Living in the Northwest, I am unfortunately faced with some of the worst offenders of this foremost fashion crime. I realize that when it is unpleasantly cold outside, we all daydream about the warmth of the summer sunshine, but sporting socks with sandals doesn’t make the seasons transform any quicker. If you would like to put on sandals this badly, move to a warmer climate.
Novelty Ties, Shirts, Boxer Shorts, Etc. – Just say no. There is nothing enduring about novelty clothing nor does it project a stylish, put together image. Leave the smiley faces, hearts, shamrocks, animal and various other prints on the racks of the store where you discovered them.
Blaring Designer Labels – This is a peculiar favorite annoyance. I don’t want to be a walking advertisement and neither should you. It’s not a sophisticated look. Just because you are donning a designer’s label on your chest, sleeve, or anywhere, doesn’t make you classy. Keep it understated and simple.
Backpacks at the Office – I work in an exceptionally expensive apartment building in Miami, occupied with lawyers and other professional sorts, and it never ceases to surprise how many men wearing nice suits are schlepping backpacks. Unless you are a student or are hiking up a mountain, abandon the knapsack at home. If you need something for your gym clothes, buy a nice looking gym bag (and there are options that don’t have big logos on them), or if you need something to carry your assorted papers, cell phone, day-planner, etc., get a nice messenger bag.
Thick Shoes – These were acceptable back in the 90s, but the large chunky shoes, particularly those with square toes, should be retired at this point in time. Pick something traditional that stands the test of time.
Shiny or Glittery Shirts and Suits – If you are looking for something to go out nightclubbing in, I can imagine much improved choices than those that are sparkly, shiny and ultimately in bad taste. If you are stuck, try a form fitting black t-shirt or black dress shirt which can be worn with denims or slacks and dress shoes or casual shoes.
Clothes That Are Too Loose Fitting – In a word, shoddy. Except if you are a hip hop artist, it’s not the right look. Pick clothes that suit your body. This may involve some testing by mixing and matching certain cuts and styles until you discover the correct fit for your body that is suitable.
Unflattering Colors – That beautifully navy cashmere sweater you found on sale after Christmas at your local retailer might be really tempting, but if it makes you look ill, it cannot be considered an excellent deal. You should pick the colors you wear to flatter your natural features such as your eye color, skin tone and body shape. Keep this in mind when putting your look together.
