More men’s worst fashion sins

Forbes has put together a list of men’s worst fashion sins:

1. Pants are too long or too short.
2. White socks with dress shoes.
3. Mixing patterns.
4. Ties too long or too short.
5. Stained clothes, wearing your breakfast, lunch or dinner on your shirt is unbecoming.
6. Waists that sit too high or too low.
7. Scruffy shoes.
8. Wearing all your handheld devices on your belt, don’t make your belt look like something out of Batman.
9. Over-layering.
10. Mismatched belts and shoes.

Fashionably cute has got something to add to this list:

1. Wearing camouflage. Military trends are always ugly. Leave camouflage to the armed forces.
2. Feminine colors. Seriously, don’t wear hot pink items guys, please!
3. Hello Kitty themed items for men. While Fashionably Cute absolutely adores Hello Kitty as the ultimate icon of cuteness, it’s not for guys. So throw those cute cufflinks away
4. Fur and faux fur coats. You don’t want to look like an old lady, do you?
5. Jeans that are too tight. I mean not just any skinny jeans (they can be stylish), but those that squeeze the life out of you. Unless you are McGyver.
6. T-shirts with stupid sayings. Don’t think that you can impress the ladies by wearing a ‘cool’ t-shirt.
7. Fancy facial hair. Normal facial hair is perfectly fine, but don’t wear weird beards or moustaches, like the one James Hetfield of Metallica is wearing. Or you’ll end up in our Wacky Fashion section.

• So, for a european perspective, I think a touch of pink can look good on a man. In fact I think anything, even hello kitties or faux fur can be okay provided the man wearing them is sexy enough!

• Those socks are so cute. I’m planning on getting a similar part to go with my new outfits.
