Common Fashion Questions Asked by Men

1.  How do I know what size belt to buy?

 

To determine your belt size add two inches to your waist size to know what size to buy.  This will center the buckle in the belt holes and give you a proper fit.

 

2.  How long is my tie supposed to be?

 

When tying your tie, aim for the end to hit the top of your belt buckle.

 

3.  Are my socks supposed to match my shoes?

 

Your socks should match your trousers, not your shoes.  The exception to the rule is when you wear jeans, match your sock to your shoe.

 

4.  Do my belt and shoes have to perfectly match?

 

No, they do not have to be the exact same color.  They should coordinate together.  To play it safe keep your belt and the shoes roughly the same color.

 

 

5.      Is it appropriate to go sockless?

 

 

If you aren’t going to wear socks make sure you are wearing a casual shoe, such as a casual sneaker or loafer, and that the occasion warrants casual attire.
