Clothing Shoes Accessories

- If you wear a leather belt, then you should wear shoes made of leather, too.

- Do you wear a black belt? Then you should wear black shoes! It is the same with brown or other tones. Remember, the shoes should always match your belt.

-  They don’t have to be exactly the same. That is to say, the colors could be a little different. If you wear a light brown belt, then the shoes could be a little darker and there won’t be problems.

- Also, textures can be different. If you use a fine crocodile belt, then you don’t need to wear similar shoes. The important thing is the color combination.

- The color of the shoes and belt should stand out from the rest of the clothing.

- Black and  brown don’t contrast each other. If you like black, you can combine it with other colors like red and yellow. On the other hand, if you like brown, you can combine it with green and orange, among others.

If you don’t want to use tight belts, nothing better than wearing suspenders. It is not necessary to be either a banker or media owner in order to be seduced by the suspenders, which have left their old-fashioned character behind to become on the ideal complement for those people who like to show their sense of style.

Although they were on the edge of extinction, this fact provides an added value, because they are an unusual thing. Their disuse can be explained by different factors like the weather that encourages people to wear clothes made of light materials which reveal the use of suspenders, or the slow disappearance of vests that hid them (among other missions). But they never disappeared in United States or England, and are mainly used by the managerial and financial circles. Who doesn’t remember Michael Douglas in Wall Street (directed by Oliver Stone)?

The suspenders that were associated to the look of Michael Douglas in the movie have a well-known supplier. They belong to the British supplier Albert Thurston that have held the pants of the most demanding customers during 188 years, in and out of the movie industry. For example, in the last James Bond movie (Casino Royale), the main actor wore White Moiré braces. They are available in the Evening Wear Collection for about 50 Euros, and are delivered without additional charge in any part of the world.

The formal clothes still use the suspenders (or braces), specially the clothes that include a vest. The suspenders are appropriate for people who don’t spend a lot of time in the gym because the stomach doesn’t look so prominent when they wear suspenders. The suspenders assure the correct “pants wearing” in any circumstance.
