A necklace is a great accessory to add because it contributes to your casualty
Many have told me the shirt really clashes with the pants color; I was going for a preppy, northeastern look today. I feel this would have been perfect with a Rolex Submariner-style watch, but I had to leave that little detail out.
I got these pants at Marshall’s yesterday; they’re Dockers and I believe they’re either the Alpha, K1 or D0 fit because they’re much slimmer than the D1 “slim fit” pants I have from them. They’re way too summery for late October in mid-Missouri, but I thought I’d squeeze in at least one wearing before next April as I was excited about having bought them and the temperature was still in the mid-60s.
These are a color that most men - even the style-inclined - would never touch, and for good reason. The color is absurd and eye-catching. There is a reason the men’s style community has collectively decided on dark denim, charcoal and navy as the go-to, acceptable colors for pants. These are hard to wear and I obviously don’t really know what I’m going to do with them yet, but it’s nice to have something different, fun and casual to wear when I’m in the mood. They’re pretty much a perfect fit, too.

The more you know about your clothes, the better, I think. There are many quotes of style advice floating around online that all lament the fact that some in the men’s style community know volumes about brands and construction and all that - all the technical details - but don’t know the history and purpose of their clothes. I would have worn my corduroy pants all summer had my mom not let me know that corduroy is a winter fabric, which seems like common sense now. It’s a warm, rough fabric that seems more suited to cooler months.
