Slacks over denim
After some thought as to what could be the next phase in the trendy LA setting, I have come up with a solution to the cookie cutter fashion that is overwhelming the LA region. My idea is taking it back to somewhat of the old days, but not so much. I am rocking the dress slacks with the plain white tennis shoes look. This look can be pulled off, however if you are one of those people who feel like the preppy look is not for you, then this will not interest you. This look is sharp yet comfortable. classy yet sheik. I got the idea from kris van assche, a relatively new designer to the fashion world. Not new as in his experience, but new as far as his own line. I would recommend going with any type of slacks that have more of a boot cut at the end, especially for those men who have a extremely large foot. You can get these types of pants from Express, and often times @ Banana Republic. French Connection also offers a couple of good pair. The white shoe of choice would be without a doubt. The original Stan Smith Adidas. These shoes are classics, relatively inexpensive and they last a long time. they come with a bunch of different trims, but i would recommmend the traditional white on blue if you decide to go with these. Other shoes are the Jack Parcels, the Converse all stars, shell toe adidas, reebok classics, etc. I would stay away from kswiss, and any type of skater shoes. the look can compliment a standard polo, or more of a preppy look with a button up and pull over argyle.
