Prerequisites of Being a Dashing Man: Part Three

This post is not going be about Persol sunglasses or Tod's loafers, not this time, my sincere apologies. Clearly you must know that those are not the only prerequisites that are required for a dashing man, I mean...all dashing men attend black tie events too. But for males there is only so much one could wear to be more ravishingly eye catching than the other. Moving on. While at a wedding this week, I did what I do best, I stared at males. I also stared at dashing male wannabes and did my usual evaluations. As the evening progressed...sadly I found myself having my own personal review session of what the guys were wearing. I know that sounds disgustingly sad and pretentious, don't hate me. Anyways, I noticed that a few males had put an extra effort to not look exactly the same as every other douche lord in the room. So then, I was like YO. "Hmmm...how's about the dude with the weird metal thing on his tie, the dude with velvet shoes, and the dude with the bad ass chain on his suit all make an appreance on my blog?" I carried on with this thought and proceeded to humiliate myself with my photography skills, once again, to slap you all in the face with an array of Victorian wedding male fashion FUN.

#1. The tie bar. Really meant to just keep your tie from flopping around...or it can be used to ad some pizazz to an uneventful black tie or some blah wedding getup. Hey, not every dude could pull this off...you've go to own that Urban Outfitters-cardigan-Seth Cohen swagger and listen to Death Cab. Cute-ish.

            

#2. BAM. Standing out like a sore thumb? I think yes.The classy name for that accessory chillin' there, there, THERE...take a close look, yes that's a called a "time peice", but we're just gonna call it a good old chain. Just add a top hat and a curly mustache to this ensemble, then we can call you Leopold and find you a Kate. None the less, kudos to you my friend. You rocked that three piece suit......and that douchey pocket square. You brave soul.

 

#3. Yes my friends, you are staring at velvet slippers. However, I like to call them gentelman loafers. I think this guy and the chain dude above went shopping together with Mozart, don't you? Any-who, those are not the traditional shoes one would see a guy wearing. That being said...these shoes are pretty dope, a little rough around the edges, but yet still a brave ass choice of wedding footwear. WORK IT MAN!

You see, you can all learn a lesson from these fine young noblemen. Us females, were just so tired of looking at the same old historical suits and shoes. We're bored to tears. 

Spice it up, nuff said.

Stay tuned for part four!
