A few questions in one post
Hi all, have a few questions regarding trying to figure out what works and what doesn't.
1. If i'm wearing white sneakers, are black chinos ok? and do i have to wear a white color belt to match the shoes?
2. I've tried a few bracelets, chains and leather, but they feel kinda off, if i have a thin wrist would thicker/stacking bracelets be better as compared to something thin?
3. how do i color match socks? do i follow the color of the shoe or pants?
4. I like wearing NMDs a lot, and would prefer if i wore invisible socks, but when i do, the back of the shoe eats my heel, is there any solution to this?
5. What kind of color goes well with khaki/light brown tops/bottoms? if khaki top what kind of bottoms would match vise versa
5. How should an oversized tee fit me?

1. Yes. No your belt doesn't have to match your sneakers. That guidelines is mainly for tailoring and leather shoes.
2. Personal preference
3. Either, pants is possibly safer/better.
4. Don't wear invisible socks. That said, invisible socks are tricky and some work better for one person than others. Try lots of different ones.
5. Khaki and Light Brown go with nearly everything. White and light blue are really easy.
6. This is incredibly difficult to answer. Show some pictures of fits with oversize tees you like, vs you wearing an oversize tee.
thanks,
for 4. if not invisible socks, then just normal length socks? or how high should the socks go?
and for 6. well i don't really know how i like it to fit or how it should
4. Probably personal preference.
On the latter point you probably need to look at pictures of people wearing oversized tees to identify what kind of outfits you like them in, how oversized you like them. For example I like how the brand Story style their oversized tees : https://www.storymfg.com/collections/clothing-accessories?filter.p.m.product.category=Tees
Currently this is what I have, i feel it might be too big but I've also liked it so far
As for the socks, I've always liked to wear no show socks, especially when wearing any long pants, cause I've always thought if you could see the socks it looked nerdy
Nah that's not a thing
Definitely don't wear a white belt, i tried matching a white belt to white sneaks in college and it looked terrible. A more traditional black or shade of brown will work for most outfits
i see
any recommendations on what kind of socks to wear then?
for shoes like NMDs and stan smiths
Basic crew socks in neutral colors
