THE ART OF SHOES

It's about that time of the year 

when everyone makes an effort 

to be the jolliest they can be.

      
So Get With The Program and
 Get Jolly Too. 

 

Here are some of the looks I chose for this last post of the year 2017. Since we're in the mood for joy and coziness I decided that this would be a great post for the sleek yet sophisticated and why not?, even more casual, cozy looks. Above is the lead image which I definitely believe it defines a sophisticated scholar; a button up shirt under a pullover vest or sweater with a fitted bubble jacket on top and some tailored slacks, accessorized with a messenger bag and last but not least, some beautifully crafted plain toe dress shoes or boots. I mean it is a perfect look this fall. To your right I chose this more western look. A plain, long-sleeved shirt under a classic neutral, beige coat paired with some fitted skinny jeans or you can rock your boot-cut denims too. Cannot forget to accessorize with your cozy long scarf and some chukka boots.

Enjoy!

  

Long scarves are a MUST this season and I think always will be. There are so many varieties to choose from; from the patters, fabrics, colors and prints.

For a very cold winter this upcoming year fur is a definite staple item for most. Men, women, children, young and old they all rock the fur. I mean it dates back to so many generations ago but today like in everything in life there are infinite choices. There is always a way to be stylish without being exaggerated in so loosing the beauty of the simplicity of the fabrics and craftsmanship.

The epitome  of a gentleman, a man of refined taste, an elegant guy, a king in his own kingdom. The one who's eyes are all in when he walks in the room. 

Here are some beautiful and affordable double-monk straps in three different colors, for all year round looks of sophistication with a bit of funk.

FALL AROUND THE WORLD

Fashion is all over, that is what makes it all the more interesting. The fact that in Europe and Asia there can be the same or similar climates but choose to sport different fabrics and designs, speaking of prints and silhouettes. You are guaranteed to find similarities but still so different. Travel the world with me here and take a look at the different style trends from the top fashion capitals of the world, from London, to Paris, to Milan, to Tokyo and New York City.

THE MONK

      Street style:

Double Monk Straps

Let's talk about the unmistakable double monk straps shoes. This style is prolific because it is distinctive from the other guys (oxford, derby and loafers). The double monk strap is in the middle of the two in the sense of security (closure). It's such a sophisticated look for the rugged dude. Whether it's cap toe or wingtip or brogue).

 

AQUIRED TASTE

   Wildly sophisticated:
 Wearing the best, dress loafers

What perfect time to slip into one of the most comfortable men's footwear, you guessed right - the dress loafers. Easy to wear with slip on closure, secured and comfortable for all day wear. You can wear these babies with straight-cut jeans and a button up for a business casual look or with a nice suit for a semi-formal look.

It is just a beautiful look for the summer and it brings out the sophisticated side of the most rebellious dude out there. With an infinite list of color choices and upper materials, I'd dare say this shoe style is for just about everyone, of all aged too. Enjoy!
