Every man has asked himself the question for the necessity of matching socks color at a certain moment in his life. Here are some important fashion guidelines clearing the rules of fashion.
- The belt should always match the shoes.
It is a good rule simplifying the dressing. It’s best to count on the traditional pallet – black, dark of bright brown. All other colors will be difficult because of their many shades. If you wear suspenders it is a curious fact but still, please, wear either a belt or suspenders.
- Combination of ties and shirts
The combination of single-colored shirt with a tie in the same or slightly different shade is very common. But we challenge you to experiment with some colors. The tie is a great way to underline your individuality but always use your good taste. Ties with prints can mislead you so try them to match the shirt you combine it with. Better avoid fashion prints on ties because fashion changes very quickly. It is good to know how to do various tie knots because they “speak” different things about you. When it comes to clips ties – just say NO.
- Box-pleats against flat-front pants.
Men choose flat-front pants due to no clear reason, they fit much better than the box-pleat pants in the general case. The box-pleat makes the hips look wider. If you want more comfort buy pants one size bigger but with flat front instead a box-pleat.
General rule is the color of your socks to match the color of the pants, or be as close as possible to it. If the pants are black, the choice is simple and clear, but it is not necessary to the socks to be single-colored. Even a simple pattern in another color is recommended. But uniformity in the color of socks, pants and shoes sure is a precondition for good looks. Perhaps it is unnecessary to mention, but white socks leave for the gym.
It is the single most important accessory that men can carry safely. Invest in a really good watch complying with your own style and way of life. However, if you like to change your watches as appropriate, try to match the color of the watch strap to that belt.
They are one of the few ways you can really express yourself. If you wear glasses, you can still have some stylish glasses that you can change as appropriate. Important in their choice is to match the features of your face and highlight your individuality.
