Sneakers and suits can be quite cool if properly pieced together. It's quite okay esp without a tie

I don't think so. You are fascinated by the colours thus your judgement

Wearing socks and sandals is just plain terrible, sandals are worn for comfortability and free flow of air down your foot, why the _fuck would you the cover it up with socks? If it's too cold outside to walk with sandals alone, then dish it and kukuma opt for a shoe instead of commiting an ancient fashion 'faux pas'. grin grin

There is always so much focus on women's fashion, but the gender that really needs the style help is men. Some men know how to dress, but there are a number of trends in male "fashion" that are just not cutting it. Here are few of highlighted fashion blunder by men I see around:

1. Clothes that don’t fit – Overly baggy clothes will make you look you’re wearing sloppy hand-me-downs. If your body type makes it hard to find well-fitting clothes off the rack, make your tailor your best friend.

https://img.minq.com/slides/2/0/2/8/4/7/2028476163/a5cc5a16caffde554067d4067baae79bed269455.jpeg


2. Wearing a short sleeve shirt with a tie – Unless you work for a fast-food joint – where sleeves get dirty making sandwiches – avoid wearing a short sleeve shirt with a tie. They are generally perceived as lower class apparel. If you want to stay looking professional and confident, stick to long-sleeve shirts when wearing ties.
https://cf.ltkcdn.net/mens-fashion/images/slide/138204-565x850r1-Nerd.jpg

3. Dirty shoes – It’s an area that too many guys overlook in terms of cleaning and proper care. A stylish man keeps his shoes clean – free of scratches and dirt.
https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/dirty-old-shoes-concrete-floor-process-grunge-style-45741355.jpg

4. Improper trousers length – Don’t fold up your jeans or your chinos unless it’s an intentional fashion statement that you’re making. Your trousers can come down to the bottom of your shoes but make sure they come just above the floor to avoid any unwanted fraying. Also, you only need a slight break, or crease, in the trousers leg. Don’t be the guy who has his feet swimming in a bunch of extra fabric. All it takes is a simple trip to the tailor to get them hemmed.

https://i.huffpost.com/gen/1394972/thumbs/r-BROGUES-large570.jpg?6

5. Wrong socks with a suit – When you’re wearing a suit, match your sock color to your trousers, not your shoes (for professional and formal occasions). This is the same as mismatching your suit trousers to your jacket. If you’re wearing a navy suit with black shoes, reach for navy socks. And when wearing a light suit, make sure the socks are darker than the suit but a shade or so lighter than the shoes. This rule of course can be broken if done deliberately for your style’s sake.

6. MISMATCHED BELT AND SHOES – If you’re wearing corporate shoes, make sure the color of your belt matches the color of your corporate shoes (for professional occasions). Also, the finish of the belt and shoes need to match. In other words, if your shoes are shiny, your belt should be shiny as well. If you’re wearing casual shoes or sneakers, make sure you wear a thicker casual belt to match instead of a thin corporate belt.

https://img.minq.com/slides/2/7/8/7/2/3/2787236672/63ddfa3e2383478f4d816fca508f3b8ce5f4922a.jpeg

7. Improper tie length – A man’s tie should always end at the center of his belt buckle. A simple touch overlooked by many. Having a tie that’s too short or too long, can make a man look incompetent.

[img]http://doanhnhanduongthoi.vn/uploads/images/news/1408072620_news.jpg[/img]

8. Being too “buttoned” up – If a jacket has two buttons, only fasten the top button. If it has three buttons, you can close the top button only, the middle button only, or both the middle and top button. The key is to always leave the bottom button undone. This is a tradition that has been used for decades, and will keep your style looking smart.


9. Socks and sandals – Have you seen anyone ever pull this off, and look sexy? Case closed.

10. CARTOON CLOTHING AND JOKE T-SHIRTS -These shirts are usually not that funny, and all they really tell people is that the wearer is immature. Cartoon characters can be cute, but usually not on a guy who's past puberty. Invest in classic pieces that will be stylish for years.

What a good write up!,most Nigerian men are guilty of most of the fashion faux pas listed here. The one that puts me off is putting on suit in a hot weather or putting a nylon shirt instead of a cotton shirt. One cannot blame them though, from the 'hustling' nature of the work they do to being ignorant of what it means to be 'wellgroomed'. Your suit doesn't have to be Giorgio Armani to Hugo Boss, It could be a 10- 20k suit on a classic less expensive shoe, and you can still look dapper.
