Hats: Good Panama, Good Fedora, Good Flat cap in tweed or wool.
Yes, I wear baseball caps for very casual settings but for anything else I wear what you mentioned.
I think it’s a bad idea to avoid against gold rings. You should wear what compliments your skin tone best. Too much yellow gold can definitely look trashy though, so it usually looks better to stick to more classic styles with yellow gold pieces.
I’ve been watching your videos for a long time and I agree with most of what you say, but where do you want people to be able to express their own personal style? Giving all these rules makes it sound to an outsider as if you’re trying to make everyone be the same, which kind of contradicts the whole idea. Just my opinion.
I agree with you. Many of what she says is just her taste.
You can pull anything off as long as you’re rich.
@@Takeiteasy11 disagree. Plenty of celebrities and rich people look like slobs. Perfect example that comes to mind is Adam Sandler.
@@BrokenBones1982 but that’s his signature look! Which is why he can pull it off. You know he’s worth half a billion so then you disregard how he looks lol.
Just do you, contrary to the impression she’s made in this video you don’t need her or anyone’s permission to rock what you want and look good doing it
Disagree with straw hats and Fedora. Straw hats are a staple in the summer and very appropriate. Fedora can elevate your ensemble and looks very stylish.
If you like something, wear it. If you don't like something, don't wear it. It's that simple.
I agree with you -unless your goal is to be attractive to women, in which case I do not agree
@@mysteryman595 You don't have to dress a certain way to be attractive to women.
When it comes to sunglasses, for everyday and most applications, I agree with the classic designs. But for sporty settings, that’s what Oakleys and other sport sunglasses are designed for. They preform better and have more protection from the sun
Totally agree with you Ashley regarding the smartwatch ❤❤
So glad I don't care what you or anyone else thinks of what I choose to wear.
Hi Ashley, could you please make a comprehensive video on men scarves? Which color, pattern and design goes with which outfit? Thank you very much, love your channel!
I agree with you 99.9% of the time and maybe I'll come around on this, but I love my classic fedora hats and Panama's, especially when it's climate appropriate. I think It can be stylish in the proper outfit or setting. And yes, I get compliments all the time. I like your style tips for today's man 100% but I can't resist a classic hat over a (sometimes) childish baseball cap any day,.
Agree with you on the fedoras!
Agree with you about hats. Baseball hats belong in the category of sneakers- fine if you’re out walking the dog or playing baseball but otherwise leather shoes/boots and a more stylish hat. However, society has been hatless so long it can be difficult to find something other than a baseball or safari hat
I been wearing hats for over 30 yrs and now if I'm not wearing one my friends ask me if I'm OK. I have about 50 hats like fedoras, porkpies, Panama, Homburg and even flat hats.
As long as you're not wearing a trilby and calling it a fedora! (I am still a bit salty that trilbys got ruined forevermore by the, uhhh, "nice-guy" dudes/memes)
I rarely agree with her and this is another reason why. "Beanies are fine" and "stick to a "'classic'" baseball cap", but avoid straw hats and even fedoras? At least she doesn't cut bucket hats any slack, that's her only good take on headwear in this video.
0:39. I paused it real quick right here. Anyone missed that?
2:41. Probably the ONLY necklace I will ever wear is my Roman Catholic Scapular and I keep that well hidden under my shirts of any kind...even t-shirts.
5:30. I live in Las Vegas so I would need those safari hats for when I'm working in the outdoors, but yes, keep those hats where they belong. Going on a hot date to an amazing steak/seafood restaurant, well, you just have to dress better than looking like you just got off mowing the yard.
7:39. YES! I love card cases for wallets.
Thanks, Ash!
I see it! Boom boom time. 😅
Mostly agree. Think my tasteful straw fedora in a neutral color was a perfect match with a linen shirt on a recent trip to some Greek islands. Practical sun protection while out exploring without going baseball cap, I’m a tourist look
I'd agree with you, that sounds like a classy look for a vacation. I think these are general rules for everyday life, there's definitely a couple exceptions that can be made if you know enough (like yourself)
@@zjb7700 i'd agree with if the title didn't say WORST accessories a man can wear...
Conner McGregor is wearing a Jacob and Co worth a million$. He also has rolex and patek phillipe in his collection. I would say for watches you should at least have one diver one dress watch and one feild or sports watch if possible.
LoL the watch with the sexy times couple. Must be on a schedule. It’s time!
The belt buckle is an American classic so I will be ignoring that. Also you cannot say no straw hats. Straw is summer, felt is winter.
I wear Panama fedoras during Tucson's hot spring and even hotter summer. They do a great job of protecting my head from the sun.
Real men wear classic hats
Exactly what the guy above me said in comments. Always take recommendations within a certain frame of context and sometime jest.
Mostly agree with you. Except for the fedora straw or otherwise. I began wearing a straw fedora over the summer and received so many compliments from women of various ages. I believe real men can wear hats, not just ball caps. I think you should really rethink your view.
If the Fedora matches what you wear and you enjoy wearing it or in a classic style, wear it man. We have to always understand the context in which a recommendation is given and think according vs a blanket statement. Some people can wear a hat and just not look stylish in reg outfit and just not a good fit, in those instances it’s a no. But it does not mean if your dressing well or in a somewhat classic sense and you have a good nice Fedora that works with the outfit you can’t wear. You certainly can and should. Just understand the context of any recommendations and think for yourself while at it in consideration of things.
@@ardentdfender4116 bruh the title says WORST accessories a man can wear. And, she doesn't give context to a lot of the accessories. For new or uninformed viewers it just steers people away from expressing some personality. This video feels slapped together last minute.
For a second, I thought you were going to say "ditch pocket squares". I'd have been like "You'll have to take my pocket squares from my cold, dead hands!" Great video - especially the info on sunglasses and bracelets! Thanks for helping us stay fashionable!
So glad you loved the video! Will always have your back on the style front :p
Come on…..how can you place a ban on a classic hat like the fedora 😠! I thought you would have stipulated what outfits work with the fedora. Everything else I kinda agree…. The wallet looking like a couch gag ….Totally hilarious 😆
I mostly agree with no white socks ( outside of the gym) but I get lost when I wear white sneakers with chinos. I don’t really like no show socks.
A Fedora is elegant and timeless. Saying it's out of date is a terrible take. Flat caps and newsboys are pretty awesome too.
Fun video Ashley! I found myself laughing out loud several times while watching this 😂
Thank you for your valuable information, Love from India❤❤❤
I am with you on white socks, and it's thanks to you I no longer possess any. I used to wear them all the time and didn't see a problem. They truly are overdone, boring, and just kind of ugly. Keep preaching the gospel of handsome, non-white socks. As it happens, I invested in my first black-beaded lava rock bracelet after seeing a really stylish guy rocking one. Also, Ash, you wear a mean suit! All the best.
I think it’s fine to wear them with an athletic outfit or casual outfit but I agree with her never wear them with a suit.
I’m still wearing white socks but I agree don’t wear them with a suit.
The George Constanza wallet will live in my memories forever 😂
Every time you say stay away from cartooney things I say no , no , no, no. Well as a pediatrician I have an excuse to rock them🤣 and a buckle that doubles as a can opener? Thanks now I gotta have that😍
hahaha at the end of the day, do YOU :)
Great video. All of the points make sense.
Baseball caps NO! Strew Panama hat YES!
I know you don’t like smart watches but the Apple Watch is the most popular watch. I challenge you to explore Apple Watch bands and find up to three band styles that can work.
Definitely seems like personal preference and doesn't take into account where the individual is from. Some things that work in one location won't work in another, but there are some baseline choices that will get you through most situations whether you're in North America, Europe, or Asia.
It also just came to me that if you come from a place where everyone dresses very casually (boots, jeans, flannel, ball cap) and you wear something super nice all the time it might make you seem unapproachable or an outsider.
That was straight & gutsy talk.Well said Lady.Than you 👍
miss A Weston is the best
Awwwww thanks, Raymond!!
What hats are recommended to wear with business professional or business casual dress? I never know what to wear in these situations and I'm bald so I have to wear a hat half the year so my head doesn't get sunburnt or cold. Beanies and baseball hats usually seem too informal, and flat caps seem old fashioned and outdated.
I wear a watch on the left, and a smartband for fitness tracking on the right. I really want to replace it with a smart ring but they're still badly priced. Is the watch/smartband combo too stupid looking to keep?
Regarding saying the matching pocket square and tie sets are super lame.....Steve Harvey has his own clothing line and he always wore that with his suit on Family Feud and everyone thought he looked sharp!!!
Idk people are complaining. This is all good advice. She’s right.
THANK YOU for the point on the large watch!! I absolutely agree that those freakishly large watches just don’t work today.
I don't agree with you concerning the flat cap. It's still stylish and attractive. The same goes for the fedora and the straw hat. There are things in men's wear that never go out of style. It's just the way we rock them that makes the difference.
Pro-flatcap here as well!
Ashley is being so critical it got in my feelings. Not matchy matchy pocket square tie, no hats except ball-cap no logo. No tie bar if your suit game is already tight. No pinky ring..how about grille with suit?
Now that you’ve mentioned it for accessories, Ashley where can we all find good Metal Cuffs and good Flatcaps? Finding mens accessories is not as easy as women stuff with stores everywhere. Mens stores for certain accessories are much harder to find. So where can we find those things for good wears?
Have you tried the internet?
@@bryanguest2807 I already did at two different Irish store for the Flatcaps as well found some other things I didn’t know I was needing to find yesterday. Good Metal Cuffs are much harder and exhaustive a search.
Ashley, great advice that you provide. But honestly, a person should wear what they like to wear and what they feel comfortable wearing. Always remember there is someone for everyone inspite of what they look like or the clothes they wear..
This isn’t for those people. It’s for people who want a timeless look in good taste. She isn’t forcing people to dress the way she wants she’s just giving good advice. Take it or leave it.
I think discussing current trends quietly speaks to what's out.
I wear all matching metal. Sometimes gold and sometimes silver. The only jewelry I wear is a pinky right and a watch with my wedding band, but no one's perfect, right? I do keep everything pretty simple. My rings and watches are also really the metal they look like, and my watches are classic luxury brands. It might be a little bit loud but my whole style is pretty simple, so it's my area to go a little outside the lines on purpose.
Baseball cap!? Never! at least not in Europe. Here its only for: teenagers, sports events. Gives away that i want to look young vibe
I'll take SmartWatch over the analogue watch.. function is where I put it above the rest
What is your suggestion for wearing a dressy hat? You suggested baseball caps for casual wear, but nothing for formal wear.
stick with the classics man, for a classic style a Fedora or nicely brimmed hat can’t go wrong
Your channel is awesome!
Agree with all except the Rings, I agree 1 per-hand but I prefer Gold to silver. I normally only wear 1 ring on my right ring finger, but if i'm dressing up. The pinky ring goes on my left hand. It's not copying Royalty, there is much more history to it..
Baggy beanies for life!
Baseball caps are stylish...LOL yeah, sure. For teenagers perhaps. As for the rest of the video, it was superb, as usual. Thanks for the tips.
The hat segment is the only part I disagree with but all of the others I 👍🏾
Ever seen Howard Wolowitz (The big bang theory). His belts always reminds me of you.
I agree with you about white socks and hockey puck-sized watches.
I like men's dress hats, like fedoras, but I think caution is wise. A hat is a powerful visual influence, and we don't live in a hat wearing age.
FRED Decker...good morning from NYC....u like fedoras ..likewise..just put it on....i know a lot of guys don't wear any hats but who knows..in your home town you could be setting a positive trend....what do i like wearing???? Berets..flat caps..newsboys....fedoras..occasion baseball cap...spring has arrived..JOY!!!!KEEP LOOKING SHARP..PEACE
Ya know what? Let people wear what they want to wear. Fashion and being part of some trend is pointless. It doesn't help society in the least and all it is, is some pathetic way to force people into some "norm"
You're hilarious Ashley
Conner McGregor is wearing a Jacob and Co worth over a million. He also has Rolex and Patek Phillipe. I would say for watches you should have at least one diver one dress watch and one feild watch if possible.
Agree with some of this.. but no straw or fedora hats? A quality wool trilby or fedora, or high quality Panama hat is the definition of classic and timeless. Not everyone wants to look like a walking Banana republic mannequin.
Baseball caps are the only type of hat that I don't like so I'm going to ignore that part of the video.
Don’t forget to compliment your fedora with a neck beard
I’ve got a few quality Wool Fedora hats, I’m gonna wear them. I’ll still consider the frame in which any recommendations are said, but I wear classic mens wear and I’ll wear the Fedora if it goes with what I’m wearing.
I love all your videos and pretty much all your suggestions... but baseball caps?? I will only wear it with my jeans and sandals.... hahaha. I'm only kidding!!
All a question of personal taste!
Yeah boys... Just dress boring and same together.... Agents Smith from matrix approved... 😆
One of the accessories I wish I could get rid of is a smartphone. They have gotten so big and carrying around that extra weight in my front pocket is so annoying. Any suggestions?
Inside jacket pockets 🥂
What about wearing a ring on the index finger?
This is all great, coming from a girl wearing her dad's jacket lol 😆
Another great video by AW (but this vid somehow got like it got cut off abruptly without the usual ending 😮?)
How about a Smart Belt? Is that not okay?
I completely agree about the piercings and will also include tattoos, for men or women. Some people are attractive with them, but it is not because of the piercing; it is in spite of it.
Yes. I think the amount of young fashionable people with a ton of tattoos has declined a lot the past few years. Many may still have 1 or a few but simple ones, not covering large parts of their body. I hated when it seemed like so many were getting coated in them and was tempted to myself to fit in at the time but never did.
The jacket looks really good on you
I like to wear an army greatcoat, black cardboard trilby and exploding boots.
I am cuban. I like cuban link chains. Are you saying I can't wear one?
I guess that makes me a scrub, lol, but I'm clean and comfortable.
I'll have to disagree with you on mirrored sunglasses. They provide clear vision in direct sunlight, such as driving in the winter when the sun is low. I do agree that we should avoid wearing them when they're not necessary as in sunglasses with non-reflective lens. To reduce the reflection, one can wear flash mirrored sunglasses, which are partially reflective
Also, matching your glasses to your face shape is overrated. There are other considerations.
Regarding hats & caps! I don't look good with any of them! More to the point, in my opinion, NO guy looks good in them! Certainly not beanies!
Have to disagree on this one - at least with beanies which is really a utilitarian item to keep your head warm and doesn't look bad on anyone. We'll just have to agree to disagree on this point but hope you enjoyed the rest of the points!
@@MensFashioner You've not seen me in one! Ridiculous!
This video is just opinions stated as facts.
Completely agree!
Love ❤️ that video A.W. Well done 👌
I like mechanical watches but to me you just get so much more bang for your buck with a smart watch, plus people get robbed for nice watches, don't understand why you would take that extra risk just for style
I owned 2 smart watches (Samsung and LG) but no more. I don't like apple watches because they're just not stylish at all so the 2 that I bought were metal with leather bands. THE PROBLEMS were hardware and software issues. After a while the buttons wouldn't do anything and I would get lag or they would just crash all together.
I would take a beaver-felt fedora any day over a "baseball cap"....
I hate hats. The only time I'll wear one is in character as a pirate captain at the local Ren Fest or if I am at the ball game. I wear a pinky ring and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. I'm 100% Italian so..... 😁
Beaded bracelets are out???
I have a Knight Rider watch that has KITT's voice coming through it. Can I wear this on a first date?
0:36 That's no watch, that's whole space time continuum 😂
0:39 WAT THE ACTUAL Fornication under consent of the king?! 👁👄👁
Edit. Timing was off (no pun)
Been trying to locate those TF Snowdons for years.
Or!!!!!!!!!
Here me out here,,,,,,, it's abit crazy I know....but ....
You do you. X
Ok, bit of a problem here.....
As someone who has eyes that are very sensitive to light, with the change to LED lighting in most public places (and pretty much all concerts) it means wearing sunglasses indoors or squinting painfully.
The upside is my night vision rocks though 😉
If you need to wear sunglasses indoors because LED lights makes you squinting painfully you need to get your eyes checked
@@andrefigueiredo4805 I had a 10 year period of chronic uveitis (yep, got tested and was just one of those things without direct cause), but been very light sensitive since, with new LED lights being the worst. Sort of feels like standing in a snowy field on a sunny cloudless day kind of discomfort.
I just wear shades and live with it 😉😎
Not totally agree about hats. I think baseball caps sometimes they are too casual if you dress up, ando also they don't offer good sun protection, specially to your ears. In case of beanies I think a classic good quality flat hat can be better in some scenarios.
Simple small precious metal studs with a small diamond can both ears. Will always work unless you're a judge or politician.
can I wear ankle socks with low top shoes?
Why didn`t you mention flat caps or news boy style caps?.....they are so much more stylish than those horrible baseball caps + subtle small boutonnieres & tie clip are also a lovely accessory.
Is something wrong with the video? It ends abruptly.
I think you're overlooking the fact that smart watches can have their bands easily swapped to fit an occasion. Gym? Black rubber band. A date or casual day out? Brown leather band or navy nato band. White collar workplace or a fancier occasion? Silver or gold watch band.
So can normal watches. I tend to change my watch straps/bracelets daily.
I strongly disagree with you on fedoras. Of course it depends on the rest of a guys outfit but that goes for every kind of hat or cap. A fedora is a good match for a classic outfit like a suit or a winter coat and I regularly receive compliments when I dress up like that. I do not and I cannot even imagine how it would look like if I wore a cap instead.
Eh screw it I’m sticking with my anime wallet. It’s the one thing I have left that reminds me of my youth (I’m 28) And it seems to always be a conversation starter with women who also like anime. Lost count on how many “you like anime” or “nice Naruto wallet” compliments I get from the random cute cashiers or just random women I see throughout my day. It’s gotten me more dates than any old “grown up” wallet.
First off: Really appreciate your video! There are a number of great points you mentioned, like men following trends blindly or wearing a bunch of way too colourful plastic wristbands. In general I think quality and a sophisticated design are crucial in any accessory. But there are also some points I have to disagree with. While it is true that formal settings require a conservative approach, I think it is important to leave space for originality and novelty design in casual settings. For example: I have been working as an optician for some years now, selling and crafting high end glasses and frames everyday. There are a lot of unconventional designer frames which can make a persons face look amazing, though there are a lot of factors to consider when helping a client pick the right piece. Of course the outfit, preferences and overall appearance of the person need to be considered and complimented by the frames form and colour. The same goes for the glasses, but they have to be fine-tuned to meet the clients optical needs on top of that. All in all I would say that the average person needs to get some good advice to make their accessories match to the rest of their outfit correctly, but if combined with thought and not overdone even flashy pieces like odd fedoras, rings or designer frames can bring about an amazing and unique look.
This is advice if you want to unquestionably dress well. It’s ok to do what you want but the style then comes into question.
this is the same fashion advice GQ was giving out in 2009 lmao
Oh my gawd she’s still on youtube
Suit with baseball cap will look great. Everything else "extremly off pudding".
As usual, amazing advice
How does a big face watch mean insecurities, because Shaq makes and wear big face watches, so does that mean he's insecure? 🤔
