What color of tshirt when you only see the crew neck?
I'm having some doubts on what colors I should choose. Let's say you have a tshirt and a long sleeve, where you can only see a bit of the crew neck of the tshirt. What kind of tshirt color would you chose? Something that matches the one on top (eg. green long sleeve and green tshirt, blue long sleeve and blue tshirt), or something that is completely different (eg. green long sleeve and white/black/gray tshirt) or even complementary colors (eg. green long sleeve and red tshirt)?
Socks color, pants or shoes? White or not white?
Hi gents, I'm at the last mile of my purchases and I need one last piece: socks. But not generic socks (black, navy, charcoal), I need socks that play well with light colored pants (cream, beige, ivory, whiteish, etc). I know that some people recommend to have socks matching the pants, while others to match the shoes. What's your opinion? And also, what color would you use for light colored chino/cargo pants? Is white a big NO outside of sport and should I go with a cream/beige color socks, or are white socks acceptable in that case?
Designer Logo vs. No Logo
Hey everyone, I have a question for you. When I met my neighbor today in front of our house, I noticed she had a Louis Vuitton bag. Why did I notice it? Because the LV logo was all over it. I know this lady well - it was definitely authentic. I also recently noticed an LV scarf on someone whose clothing style I really admire. I looked up the price: new costs 400 EUR, secondhand still 200-250 EUR. A similar scarf without the logo? Often below 100 EUR. I'd like to hear your opinion about designer clothing and these famous logos. First, it's definitely a display of wealth - but only when it's authentic. Another aspect is that it can backfire. People might assume it's fake, that you're trying to look rich. And this happens whether the piece is original or actually fake. The third aspect is the actual value. How much would I pay for that LV bag without the logos? 50-100 EUR tops, instead of the 1,500 EUR for the original. You might say we dress for ourselves, which is absolutely right. But we also dress to create a first impression in those crucial first seconds. So my question is: when does it make sense to wear clothing or accessories from major brands that everyone recognizes?"

I've just completely redone my closet and changes all clothes. There isn't one that has a logo, before? I had many. My choice was to have a more clean style, not to show that I bought this or the other brand. IMHO, most people want to show off logos to show that they're "rich", while in reality they might not, but those brands give them that impression and feeling. I'm not down to play that game.
About to replace my running shoes with these, thoughts?
Hey gents, I'm finally reaching the point where I'll replace my running shoes (that I've been wearing everywhere, all the time) with these 3 pairs (the first 3, the other 3 is what I own right now). What do you think about all of them (future and current ones)? They'll be the foundation of the capsule wardrobe that I'm going to work on next. My idea is that I'll wear the white sneakers most of the time during the day, and the brogue, oxford and boots when I go out at night / at events. And the running shoes, well, those only when I do some sports.

3 Things You Didn't Know You Needed...Until Now
Alright, I’m here to bestow upon you the holy trinity of organization tools you absolutely NEED—because chaos is so last century. These gems are as self-explanatory as a "low battery" warning, but I’ll humor you with the rundown of what keeps my closet from resembling a yard sale. Behold, my current lineup: a watch travel case, a fragrance display case, and a hanging tie organizer. Got anything similar in your toolkit, or are you still wrestling with entropy? Spill your secrets—what’s your go-to gear for keeping things less... apocalyptic? My Must-Haves: - Watch Travel Case: A sturdy little fortress for my timepieces, because nothing screams "I’ve got my life together" like watches that don’t end up scratched in a sock drawer. - Fragrance Display Case: My scents sit pretty in this case, looking like a perfume museum instead of a cluttered countertop disaster zone. - Hanging Tie Organizer: Keeps my ties from staging a revolt in my closet. It’s like a librarian for neckwear—strict, but fair. So, what’s your organizational weaponry? Note: I'm not affiliated with any of these items, nor do I receive compensation from them. Rather, these are provided to you as a starting point. 1.

I just recently started to use an old tea box to store my [brand new] pocket squares 😄 I don't have that amount of ties, watches or perfumes yet
