I am not a fan of no socks / bare ankles with suits. Can some celebs pull it off? Sure. Only place I can make sense of regular dudes is if you can see the beach. Some kind of wedding or party at the beach or poolside hotel party. The ultra high water look is still ridiculous and not something I’d rock but that whole get up sticks out less at the beach.

Agree. But then I think flip flops or sandals are called for.

I'm past the age where I would think of Joe Burrow as a fashion guide. He still looks like a grown up McCauley Culkin to me. But even I can tell that this pink suit is a fashion foul.

Ha! He does look like a grown up MC!!

Truly all I could think of with the pants was “berries and cream” lad commercial. Whatever makes you feel expressed, but I do think to myself BERRIES AND CREAM, when I see this pant length!

I just had to google that. Hilarious. Although now I know I’m gonna have that pop in my head at the most in opportune of times 🤣

LMAO! No, I cannot wear short pants. But, if I could...

I blame Larry Brown for the deterioration of men’s fashion. . .in fact, I did blame Larry Brown in a Rule of Three column some time ago. . .

True about the colors 😄

Thanks for the fashion tips, Henny. My goal with clothes is just to wear the most plain things imaginable. Blue/grey/green t-shirts. Pants that don't have obvious stains. But I do have one funky accessory. For my last birthday, my wife and kids got me some slip-on shoes that are a color somewhere between purple and pink. I would've never (EVER) bought anything in that color for myself. But they were a present and so I wear them around and I've gotten a few compliments. So maybe I should be more bold.

But I'm not exposing my ankles. No way.

Good on ‘ya for your ankle stance. You know I approve!

Now, down to business: let’s see those slip-ons!!! 🤣
