When I wear something what I would consider to be fairly normal (what is normal I guess is open ended) I will throw small things in to add a little interest into an outfit…
Now I’m not taking about some really loud tie, or saaaay…some really strange “manblingjewellery” or do what those Italians do and tuck their gloves into their pockets…what I will do is wear coloured socks, Simple! no? yep..it is. And the beauty of it..is this…you don’t even need to spend lots on them, I get my bright socks from a small sock/hanky/other random stuff stand at the shopping centre just down the road from me, they are like $4 a pair…and are pretty awesome…actually…I’am wearing some bright powder blue ones right now!
I wore a jacket I picked up from Clearit when I was in Melbourne last (its a matching suit..more later) and it has a lovely fuller lapel, patch pockets (I can totally put my hands in all smart like) I paired it with some awesome jeans Levi’s sent to me a while back (big thank you to them) a simple white button down shirt and grey brogues from Asos, which I then added a pair of bright primary red socks…just for a little fun. This is pretty much what I wear on a day to day basis, outfits like this can cross a varied amount of situations….Business, casual (loose the jacket) and if I ended up going out that night somewhere (even though that never happens) but you know….you get the idea.
