MUST WEAR for #ThisSummer
1. Wear Bermudas
3. Turn-ups. We still love it.
4. Fresh scent. (In fact this is the first rule for whole year)
5. If you don't have your pedicure go with espadrilles instead of flip flops.

#ShoePorn for Men!
Shoe addiction may seem like just for women but this is not true. Even if it’s true that means women look at your shoes and criticize your taste. Either way you have to be careful and selective as a men when it comes to shoes.
Men shoes
have an informal look for Spring 2014, but are yet very stylish. If you are a conservative
guy in means of style try the ones with laces. One of the hottest trends in men’s shoes for
the season are the solid soles, decorated with metal elements or unexpected colours.
But I – personally- don’t like metals in men’s shoes unless they are just for decoration.
The most popular models of men’s designer shoes for the spring of 2014 are
moccasins, loafers, slippers and chukkas. Smooth leather, suede and nubuck keeps
their ranking in fashion. You will also find that reptile skin and reptile skin
imitations are another popular choice of material for men’s shoes. Combinations
of materials with different textures are also possible.
My DO’s
- Loafers (just for a business look)
- Sandals & flip flops with Bermudas
- Trainers (always)
- Chukkas
My DON’Ts
- Reptile Skin
- Too much metal elements
- Pointy-toed shoes
- Flip flops with boot cut jeans
Vibrant colours, like cobalt blue, emerald green and cherry are another popular trends in men’s shoes for this season. Of course, the traditional colours like black and brown are not excluded. You can also try floral prints for espadrilles too (Which I like a lot!)
Here is the
editor’s pick (which is me in this case) for shoe shopping!

Men's Style Guide SS14 | Top 8 Trends to Watch Out!
Wednesday 5 March 2014
Exclusive Interview with Gemma Hyslop, Stylist of Urban Outfitters Europe
Here is another woman in menswear world! Gemma
Hyslop, menswear & womenswear Stylist at Urban Outfitters Europe, tells us about
SS14 menswear trends. This is a womanly chat about male trends including
likes & dislikes! J
Can you tell us about yourself?
I am the European stylist for all online
imagery for both menswear and womenswear. I basically put all the outfits
together for the online product shoots and style all the menswear for our Lookbooks,
press days and creative imagery!
What’s the ratio of men to women customers
of Urban Outfitters?
We have a smaller menswear based customer
compared to our womenswear customers but I would say they are a little older so
come to our website or stores for something specific! They know the brands we
stock, they know what they like and they come to us specifically for those
brands or pieces!
On a scale of 1 to 10 how do you rate men
paying attention to their daily styles compared to women?
7 years ago I would of said maybe a 5 but
now I think Menswear is so much bigger and more exciting than it has ever been
I would say a good 8 or 9. Men are much more aware these days, celebrities,
singers and people in the public eye are a lot more style conscious pushing
boundaries with fashion so this then filters down to the highstreet.
Do you think runways are reflected on the
street?
Yes, more so than ever, people take direct
influence from catwalk shows these days and make it work for their own personal
style, whether it be head to toe or just certain aspects.
Do you think there is a definite kind of
style for the future of men’s fashion?
I don’t think any fashion can be definite
as it is ever changing. I do believe men’s fashion will become stronger each
year though, there are so many new designers emerging in Menswear at the moment
and it is exciting to find out who is going to grow within the industry and who
is going to drop off the scene quickly!
"I love men who aren't scared to push the boundaries. I have a lot of respect for a guy who will wear a head to toe printed outfit, you need to be a confident person to carry off certain trends."
Could you also name one person in the
public eye whose style you like the most?
I love ASAP Rocky and feel he has pathed
the way for making fashion more accessible to the average guy, he has helped to
link up fashion and music more in the public eye. I also think Pharrell Willams
and Kanye (even though he is a bit of a douch bag) have also done this!
What would be your one piece of advice for
men in terms of style and fashion?
Always wear good trainers!

Need Inspiration? 6 Looks for 6 days!
Everyday your mood changes therefore the
style you want to be in changes too. At least it’s like this for us, women. But we
are all human, right? So what’s the difference!
Men are just a little bit luckier when it
comes to the questions ‘What to wear today?’ because there are less choices
then women’s. But still… A guy needs to style himself too.
Style makes you look good and some basic
styles bail you out whenever you lack inspiration.
Either you are an urban cool guy or an easy
chic or a classic looking guy; here are 6 style inspirations for 6 days from
menlook.co.uk!
Choose one of them and make it work! :)
