Trainer + Suit

So lately I've been talking a lot about dressing suits down.

I'm going to continue this because I feel as though there is a lot to be said about making a suit your own with aspects from the casual side of your closet.

If t shirts, no pleats, no ties, or jersey fabric blazers aren't enough, why not wear a sneaker with your suit.

What I'm not talking about is that all white sneaker that your mom wears during the graveyard shift at the hospital. White is cool, but you don't need corrective or butt firming sneaks when you're trying to look sharp.

What I am talking about is a fresh black sneaker (or at least dark), preferably low top, maybe with a contrasted white or other colored sole. Classic New Balance trainers are making a comeback as well. This will add a bout of leisure to a suit that is going to be worn more as a hobby than a job. Finding a classic trainer for cheap isn't an issue either. If you're on a budget you can find them for under $30 on sites like ASOS or ZARA.

All this is at your transgression of course. If you want to throw some Air Yeezys on, then by all means. He did it. But he's Kanye West. I'm sorry, but you are not.

Bottom line philosophy is: If you are aware of your style and how you want to look then you don't have to put much effort in to look good. Thus your outfit looks effortless.
