Shoes in traditional colors such as black, brown, dark tan, and navy should always match your belt. Other colors are difficult to match and should be avoided.

Use a dress belt with jeans only when paired with a blazer or jacket and a dress shirt.

Don’t wear a dress belt when wearing jeans and sneakers. Wear a fabric or braided belt or one with a casual look. Never wear a belt with suspenders.

Wearing the same color shirt and tie is outdated. Even Regis stopped sporting the look he made popular. Use color and patterns in your tie to express your personality but not corny whimsical ties. Novelty ties are short lived so stick with diagonal stripes, polka dots, plaids, or soft patterns.
Socks should match your pants, but the exact shade is not necessary. Patterned socks work well for a fashionable look. White socks should only be worn with sneakers or when going to the gym, unless you are imitating Michael Jackson.
Pleated pants are more comfortable but flat front pants look more fashionable and are more slimming. If you need extra room, buy them in a size larger and have the waist taken in by  the store’s tailor.
A watch is an important accessory for a man. Every man needs at least one good quality watch that reflects his life style. A black band should be worn with black shoes and a brown band with brown shoes; and a silver or gold band works with either.
Wear glasses that compliment the shape of your face and express your personality. Updated frames will takes years off your look.
A new hair style will make you look younger and more fashionable. If you haven’t changed your hair style since high school, it is now time to consider seeing a stylist for an updated look. Go for it!
