- Men's Style Conundrums: Skinny Ties
By: Hendrik Pohl | - Men's fashion pundits remain divided on the topic of skinny neckties. There are those who say that a tie with all the thickness of a shoelace isn't fitting for men over 16, while others say that skinny ties are a good break from the wider tradition of necktie sizing. In these times of changing norms and mores of male style, the skinny tie is still a hot debate in modern fashion - one that may not be fully resolved anytime soon.

- Men's Style Conundrums: Vests
By: Hendrik Pohl | - It's a fashion question that countless men have asked in the past: should you wear a vest? Yes, vests are acceptable even when you're not wearing one with the whole three-piece suit shebang. A layered look with a vest, however, occupies its own special place on the scale of formality. Wearing a vest per se is no style faux pas right now, but wearing the vested look to the wrong occasion most definitely is, regardless of the time period.

- Men's Style Conundrums: Cuffed Pants
By: Hendrik Pohl | - Very often in men's fashion, you'll be forced to choose between theory and tradition, as in the case of cuffed pants. In theory, cuffed pants are supposed to look dated, and should be avoided whenever possible. In traditional practice - here meaning it was your dad who introduced the habit - it's fairly common. Should you leave the house with cuffed pants?

- A Men's Fall Fashion Forecast
By: Hendrik Pohl | - Great style is as much having a sound sense of fashion as it is getting with all those new trends before everyone else. Now that the fall and winter collections of most men's labels are firmly on their display mannequins, the trends of the season are beginning to take on clearer shapes. Designer fashion labels are optional if you can spot those trends ahead of time and stock up on style pieces at the nearest brand-less department store.

- The Men's Fashion Rules To Break Now
By: Hendrik Pohl | - Men's fashion is all about rules. Don't wear socks with sandals. Don't wear ill-fitting pants. Don't wear mismatched suit separates. But fashion is also a constantly changing field, and some of the most modern styles require you to bend the rules of the older ones. No, you still shouldn't wear sandals with socks; the truly fashion-forward man, though, has many more combinations now available to him and his repertoire.

- Men's Style Sins With Outerwear
By: Hendrik Pohl | - Outerwear is supposed to be one of the most foolproof bits of men's fashion; after all, any idiot could throw on a coat. But there's much more to outerwear than merely shrugging an overcoat on before you leave your front door. There are still innumerably many ways to do wrong by your outerwear and look foolish with it on. And with the kind of visual real estate that the average coat has, those are fashion faux pas you can't afford to make.

By: Hendrik Pohl | - Versatility is supposed to be one of the many strengths of the polo shirt in men's fashion. After all, you couldn't expect anything less from the style piece that's thought of as the middle ground between shirts and tees. But just because it's versatile doesn't necessarily mean that it's also foolproof. Doing wrong by your polo shirts could also end you up getting the worst of both tees and shirts at the same time.

- Age-appropriate Men's Fashion: Accessories
By: Hendrik Pohl | - Face it: when it comes to fashion, men are at a disadvantage with accessories. Not only does the sex as a whole have a narrower selection, but finding that stylish sweet spot is also very difficult for most.

Here are a few things you may want to remember about accessorizing for a more mature style.

By: Hendrik Pohl | - Few things in men's fashion have evolved as much as the shoe department. When you look at the heeled, ornate men's shoes of the Victorian era, the minimalist Florsheims of today are almost unrecognizable from their predecessors. But some things, as they say, never change, and the high bar for respectable make footwear is one of those things. Chuck Taylors are fine on teens, but getting on in years calls for a whole other shoe rack.

By: Hendrik Pohl | - The rules of men's fashion change, and they can change fast. Some of the most exalted from a few decades ago no longer apply. Big shoulder pads are passe, Thom Browne can wear pants that show ankle and Marc Jacobs can not wear pants at all. Neckties, however, have changed little since their introduction into the male wardrobe. Messing with the time-honored age-appropriate traditions rarely turns out well. You have been warned.

Although men's sunglasses do not come in as much variety as that of women's, choices for men's eyewear can still overwhelm you. In the fashion-conscious world today, it is a fashion faux pas to be caught in outdated, unattractive sunglasses.

- Ice Skates - From Fashion Faux Pas To Masculine Masquerade
By: Dominic Donaldson | - Ice Hockey is a popular sport, and is as celebrated for its on-pitch fisty-cuffs as it is for its actual sporting merits. The sports antics have been immortalised on the silver screen in Slapshot, The Mighty Ducks and aspiringly at least, in Happy Gilmore. It is a game of passion, skill and ten tonnes of testosterone. Considering the history of ice skates, I consider ice hockey to be at odds with its past. A dichotomy is created between the graceful nature of gliding on ice and full on thund ...
