Top 10 Men's Fashion DO's and Don't

  1. DO match you belt to your shoes~it helps to tie together looks especially when the suit is black and shoes are brown or vice versa.
  2. DO NOT wear soft sole shoes with Tuxedos~Most soft sole shoes are very casual and dont look very elegant. A nice hard sole tie up dress shoe is always a safe choice.
  3. DO NOT wear white dress shoes- no matter how fly you thought POPS off the Wayans Brothers was those shoes were never meant to be worn in real life.
  4. DO pair wear cotton scoop and v-neck tees with blazers and cardigans. A classic tee can go from day to night especially when worn in a dark hue.
  5. DO NOT walk around with a hand towel like its part of your outfit. Its looks tacky and extremely extra.Just because you saw it in a music video doesnt make it right.
  6. DO NOT let your boxers or briefs be visible to the general public, contrary to what your friends tell you its not attractive, so either buy a bigger shirt or pull ur pants up...Your choice.
  7. DO wear cufflinks~ some people think that they are outdated but nothing looks better to me then to see subtle and crisp french cuff and non-gawdy cufflings peeking from under a well-tailored Suit
  8. DO invest in a high quality cashmere or wool blend sweater in black or charcoal. If your daring go for a vibrant tone or pastel.Make sure that its a hue that compliments your skin tone. The piece easily transcends from fall to winter and day to night depending on style and color.
  9. DO NOT wear jeans that are tighter than your girl friends~Im not sure who started the trend but im making it my mission to stop it. For no reason should you be borrowing your gf or sisters skinny jeans.
  10. DO invest in a tailored suit~ The average guy can usual find one off the rack suit, but for the rest of the male population buying a tailored suit is a wise investment..even off the rack suits usually require some alterations.

So Im sure there are things I missed but for right now these are the things on the for front of my mind. Hope you were taking notes.....
