Men’s Style Sins
By Nikki Patel
If you’re looking to impress with your outfit choices here are five major style mistakes you might want to avoid:
High waisted trousers

Booty shorts

Hype, Dope and all that jazz

Those who are ‘dope’ often opt for a subtler, more chic T-shirt design, basking secretly in their own personal dopeness. Dope.
The Deep ‘V’

The excessive collar

Either way, your swag is sleaze-ridden and you are indirectly communicating to the world that Saturday Night Fever is your sartorial inspiration.
