Well this is a man who likes to hedge his bets there's a piece of clothing for every season here and it just doesn't work it didn't work when we only had a shot of his feet (freaking footies) and its no better full length.
There are those goddamn footies again. What a suave type, huh? Love the eyebrows. Stop the light from reflecting into his eyes, I bet. I'd love to chase this cat up an olive tree, if you know what I mean.
As the picture unfolded, from the top down, I was entranced; then the rolled up pants, bare ankles, dark clod hopper shoes and FOOTIES appeared…like having a nightmare you have trouble waking from. NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Too, too, too many colours. Navy Pea coat and stripes with sport socks and dark shoes. At least some brown brogues with laces please. I understand the reasoning regarding current trends, but Spring/Summer is beginning in the southern hemisphere. It's time to find the transition wear to winter.
I would love to have that coat. But he's too far away from the philippines. And for sure he won't give it to me. I just want to see you do the photography moment there in New York. Wait for me. lol
one should either wear socks or not wear socks, but rule those silly footie things out. they look about as stylish as an athletic knee support and ruin the line of a good pair of shoes.
I think he looks like a house painter going to his next job; he had no time to take a shower and had to rush out, so he even forgot to tie his shoe laces. In the rush, he put on his little brother's pants. It's too bad the whole things looks so ugly, becasue there are nice individual elements, such as the peacoat for example.
The top half and the bottom half, it makes no sense.
You know what it looks like? Without wanting to make fun of him. It looks like he just waded with his feet through a stream and is trying to dry them while walking.
The top half suggests cold weather, the bottom half suggests warm weather.
On the other hand, if people in Milan are doing it, soon people across the world may be doing it..
In this case, the "footies" showing from the shoes is really nice! Maybe because the volume of the coat balances with it. I never thought I would compliment a guy with footies but he certainly knew how to pull it off.
The hair and eyebrows are captivating, the angular face and beautiful layers of navy entrancing, but rolled cuffs belong on a beach with deck shoes, and I can never accustom myself to men in short pants and dress shoes with oddly exposed ankles. Don't do it. Not attractive, no matter how "chic."

If it's cold enough to wear a pea coat, it's also cold enough to wear proper socks and turn your cuffs down.

footies make sense, though i'm not fond of how they look.
