Menswear don'ts

No blacks
You are neither a stage-performing artist nor a valet at a members club for middle-aged divorcees.
No off-colors
Mustard belongs on a hot dog. Musty matt pink ? Leave it to end-of-aisle displays at Sephora.
No slim-fit cardigans
What up, Andrew Tater Tots.
No baggy jeans
Unless you are Notorious Out Of Style. Straight and wide legs are welcome and will help to avoid the rooster silhouette, but don’t overdo it.
No funny patterns
Paisleys are great, but not on your pants.
No silly patterns
The exceptions are tenured educators.
No su miss aura suits
A toned physique is great, but a drapey suit is better. Igor from Equinox might prefer the skin-tight suits from Bonobos Ford, but it’s not the vibe.
No laced outdoor boots in the city
Are you climbing to Whole Foods Mountain or what ? I get the desire for a rugged look, but cosplaying as a lumberjack who can’t keep up with his pilates partner after three flights of stairs, let alone hiking three miles through Runyon Canyon.
