Underwear Game on point

If you're like most guys, you probably don't put much thought into your underwear game. Here's a controversial statement: All men regardless of age, occupation or lifestyle, deserve great underwear. That is, underwear that both feels and looks better than just good. That means underwear that 1) Fits, 2) doesn't have holes in it 3) is less than a year old and 4) doesn't induce cringing when your pants come off. The thing that's most important when buying undies is to be honest with yourself. This is the layer that sits closest to your skin, so if your underwear doesn't support you enough, then its time to edit. There are a lot of different styles, looks and degrees of premium-ness and each has its on own place in a man's wardrobe, check out a few from our list below:

Fashion And Business

Whether you opt for a classic formal suit or a business casual outfit, the most important thing is that all the pieces of the outfit fit you well. If you wear clothes that are too tight, it will be really inappropriate, and if they are , on the other hand, too loose, you will look like you have borrowed the clothes from your father or you've lost weight and simply forget to buy new clothes. Fit and cut really matter, so make sure you get something that is appropriate for your body shape. There are other ways to improve your reputation, but looking smart, confident and successful will add to your reputation, and make you a do-it-all person. Below Andile Tshona gives us a little taste of his fashion sense.

Choosing the best colour of clothes for your dark skin.

Its always a challenging process choosing the right colour of clothes and many people wonder what the best way to create a colour scheme that will flatter your natural look is. Colour can be a cruel mistress. Most of us know that we could stand to win some serious style points by giving colour outside our comfort zone a go, but finding hues that work with your complexion is often easier said than done. Dark skinned guys usually feel that they have very less options of styling, which is an absolute misconception. In fact, dark skinned guys are really blessed.

Colours To Wear:

Dark colours like grey, brown, bottle green, navy and bolder shades of blue will all work well as these shade contrast with your skin tone.

Colours to Avoid:

You will want to avoid an abundance of soft, pastel shade or bright colours as they'll only wash you out. This goes for neutrals too, rather than white, light beige and stone, choose richer shades such as sand, camel, khaki and slate grey.

Shoe for the week.

Flash the Flesh - Sockless Game

The key to the sockless look is keeping it clean, that means no bulky, rolled-up cuffs. With no socks to share the spotlight, your shoes need to stand on their own. Beginners cant go wrong with a classic loafer. Its the easiest shoe to spot sockless, and it will look stylish in plenty of situations. Always bear in mind both the formality of the occasion and expected dress code before opting to flash the flesh. Although sockless can look extremely sophisticated and refined, some events call for a more traditional approach to dressing, for example wedding or corporate offices. But for the rest of us mere mortals, who don't look like models, work in the creative industries, or have the confidence to cut completely away from the pack, the more socially palatable way to go sockless is in slim trousers or think like an Italian and go for tailored, shorter-length trousers instead.
