Avoid the Pitfalls of a Fashion Rut

Five Ways to Put an End to Your Lazy Fashion Routine

We all have a tendency to fall into a rut with our everyday fashion routine. Ruts can be notoriously contagious starting out with your fashion and moving into other areas of your life at a depressingly quick speed.  We’re here to stop the rut before it happens. You might be feeling uninventive with your menswear pieces at the moment but a few simple items can make a dramatic difference

#1: Tie Clips & Tie Bars

Tie Clips put an exceedingly sharp look on anything. They have the innate ability to transform any look from ordinary to extraordinary.  Tie Clips are functional and fashionable accessories that have somehow been overlooked and under utilized in menswear fashion. Un-rut your next look by incorporating a simple and modern tie clip or tie bar.

#2: Patterned Socks

Patterned Socks can really kick start a look whether it be a three piece suit or a v-neck and denim jeans combo.  You really can't go wrong with tasteful patterned socks that are striped, polka dotted or plaid. We also like the look of teaming your best monochromatic looks with bright solid hued socks in pinks, indigos and reds.

#3: Silk Scarves

Silk Scarves are all the rage in Menswear Fashion for 2013. We are seeing designers layering them in all sorts of creative fashions.   We love to see patterned silk scarves layered on top of patterned dress shirts and tucked into textured blazers.  Patterned silk scarves are guaranteed to add some innovation to your sense of style.

#4: The Beanie

Beanies have been a long time  favorite piece in streetwear fashion for their functionality but we are seeing a surge in their popularity for their straightforward style. Beanies give an edge to a look and add to the stylish bravado of a work ensemble.  They also do wonders to un-rut your everyday fashion routine.

#5: Summer Cotton Belts

Colorful Cotton Belts infuse a sense of colorful charm and fun loving charisma into your everyday look. Cotton belts look sensational teamed up with both light and dark toned menswear basics and especially work fashion wonders with over-saturated cotton chinos.  Bright, colorful belts will always refresh you and your style.
