Ditch the Denim Jeans

You've got it, Denim Jeans are light years away and bring in a tide of color, and not to mention variety, to your daily outfits.

I said ditch, not destroy. Let's face it, denims might not appear in the hottest runways, but they're always in style. Denim is like the legendary creation of all time, timeless and one hell of a tough pair of pants. They're God's gift to casual clothing.

But too much of everything is a sin, and too much of denim, is a major faux pas. You are branded as 'normal' or worse, 'BORING' if you're everyday casual wear is composed of a denim bottom.

"But they go perfect with anything." True true, but different pant styles/colors will do an exciting new look. It will cost you more to bubble up an outfit top + bottom, instead of just changing the top, but Fashion is always an investment, and investments do need money.

Exciting isn't it? Always remember this, try not to pair up your bottoms with your tops, it's a common faux pas. There are exemptions to these rules of course (such as the Black-on-Black ensemble), as to many faux pas, and you have to extremely be careful in trying on a single colored outfit.

To be safe, play with contrasts (Brown top with White Pants, Brown top with Red pants), and with the foot ware, match with the top, creating a harmonial layer of contrasting colors.

The White top and powder blue pants is a perfect easy-cool and feather weight outfit, just to add.

Always remember, fashion forward men are daring yet careful, the most expensive pieces can be a disaster if paired with the wrong mate.
