Ashley, please respond! I'm curious why you think burgundy works for the top but not the bottom. I ask not because I disagree but because I have two pairs of burgundy pants (jeans and chinos), and I've similarly found that they never seem to pair with anything-even the most neutral of shirts. Why do you think that is? Logically, it seems like it shouldn't make a difference, but it definitely does. I've similarly found that white shirts don't look good on me, but white (or off-white) pants do. Perhaps it has something to do with the skin color contrast and/or the "weight" of the color?
Okay, stopped the video at 10 seconds in and thought: I know Ashley must mention the bomber jacket, and white sneakers too! 42 seconds in, and there is the bomber jacket!!!! She never fails to revert to type!
Thank you Ash for the good advice on dressing. Any advice on pairing a coffee-brown(dark brown) and light-grey chinos , kindly. I bearly wear it bevause if difficulty in pairing it. 😀
Boot question: I have a pair of dark brown/burgundy lace up boots as a first pair and I don't know if I should get a lace up medium brown(brandy) pair or a lace up matte black? These are the thursdays style boots, for reference.
Whats wrong with burgundy bottoms Ashley ? you kept referencing burgundy tops which i also like, but I just picked up a pair of dark rich Burgundy colored jeans from Express, and i cant wait to wear them with a tan sweater, and my dark brown cap toe lace up boots . Don’t sleep on dark Burgundy bottoms Ashley.
Suits some people but not everyone, burgundy can come across as being a bit too bold of a neutral colour and can stick out compared to the likes of olive green, navy, beige, black and grey. For shorts it works well, but for trousers it's 50-50. Generally I'd say the darker the shade of burgundy the better and in terms of pairing I'd say black and navy work best as the top half if you were to wear burgundy trousers/chinos.
I hope Ashley can respond to this, as I agree with her position but can't articulate the reason why. I have two pairs of burgundy pants that I never wear because they never look right, even with a super-neutral shirt.
@@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou Yeah the best acid test is to see how they look with other coloured pants and if you find that they all look better compared to the burgundy ones, then there's your answer. But like I said before, black and navy will be guaranteed to work well with it.
@@rockygabriel7096 Yeah burgundy and black is a brilliant combo, bonus is that they work well either way🔥 A burgundy polo/jumper/t-shirt always looks good with black slim jeans
I love men's style... not fashion and trends, but timeless style! I wear all the style you recommend, but people seem to categorize me as "Preppy"... I don't know whether or not I should be offended by that?... like initially, it is really bugging me, and I am not a prep or jock... Is that ignorance on their part? Is timeless style like you recommend "preppy"?... and should I be bothered by being called preppy? Been really stressed and self-conscious because of this lately:/... making me second guess my style.
@@Gunnlbeige/sand/tan is a really light shade of beige, looking like the beach sand. Camel ist a bit richer, deeper, darker like your classic Camel coat or the well knoen animal. Calling those beige chinos khaki colored is an american thing as in Europe khaki is the a brownish shade of olive military green. Cultural differences also seem to be relevant for the color navy blue. A lot of american UA-camr refer to navy and then quite often show pictures of suits that are a "lighter dark blue" and would be called royal blue in Europe. We Europeans see navy as a shade 2 nouances lighter than black, with midnight blue lying right in between black and navy.
*Hey You!* 👋 🤣 *Listen to Ashley. She is right!* The grey skies of Fall and fewer leaves on the trees set the background for your presence. Atop hues: brick red, burnt orange, burgundy, chestnut. Abottom neutrals: pine, khaki, olive, charcoal, black Atop: higher saturation in the hues but not too vivid, i.e., not tints, not tones and shades. Abottom: lower saturation, i.e., muted (shades) Atop: warm hues, except yellow, so red and orange Abottom: cool hues, so green, blue, violet Go elevated monochromatic (same hue family) Never look metro and never act metro. Fashion one's mind with manly subjects. Deepen the voice.
@@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou Being triggered by UA-cam comments is a most unmanly trait. This is the third time that you have freaked out over innocuous comments written by me. You must attend meth-fueled ragers crawling with metros. Be careful. You might catch an incurable STD. Good luck!
I think burgundy pants looks good too!
Thank you! Rebuilding my wardrobe and I am leaning towards quality fabric
Thank You!! Remember us old guys (60+) 😊😊❤❤

Guilty! 😇
Yep, but your advice is always on point!@@MensFashioner
Great video asley
Great tips!
Ashley, as always great advice, I'll put it to work, thank you!
I love a gray and navy combo
Oh... you just gave away all my secret color combinations😁
Especially the olive and tan combo. It looks tough.
haha grey wool pants and burgundy sweater/blazer was my high school uniform, wish I hang onto those, never thought of wearing those outside of school
These are some great ideas! I can't wait to try them!
Yay! Thank you!
Boring colors go along with my boring personality perfectly 👌

Green and navy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
HEY YOU FROM COLOMBIA !
HEY YOU! 😃
Nice color combination 😊

Don’t sleep on dark Burgundy bottoms Ashley.
Opinion on blue and black combination?
Just curious on why burgundy on top only?
Ashley, I really appreciate the break from Coofandy ads. (I really don't like them.)
This is definitely a channel for old men who don't know how to dress
What's wrong with burgundy for the bottom half?
I have burgundy chevignon jeans and with black shirt and boots, it's a killer combo

"Preppy" isn't an insult or pejorative. It's just a certain kind of look. Nothing wrong with it.
Preppy can be offensive if you don't like that look. But you could have more than one look, example: preppy, casual, rugged, etc
What are the best color combo?
what is the difference between Tan, Sand and Camel ... it seems sometimes you use them interchangeably...
Those and beige all look the same to me.
@@MayTheSchwartzBeWithYou yes... and some brands call khaki a brown while others its green...
Different shade of light brown

The most manly thing you can do is to stop being so insecure about your masculinity (or rather, your lack thereof).
