We’re not gonna post a whole bunch of Milan Fashion Week runway stuff here…you’re normal dudes. So, we’re just gonna tell you how to look like you came from Milan, but without the flight expense and leaving the elitism behind too. What to know: COLOR!!!!! Don’t be afraid, be bold. Tone it down with browns if your nerves are getting the best of you. HERE’S SOME DIEAS ALL UNDER $50:

Would you dare??????????? We here at LKc Style think that this look is too confused…dress shoes on the boat?? But, alas, rules are made to be broken, no??
“I had a question – my husband’s birthday is coming up and he wants some shoes that aren’t dress shoes but aren’t tennis shoes either. He’s very picky and I’m at a total loss. My budget would be around $100-$150. Do you have any thoughts on some shoes that would work well with jeans and a polo or a button down? Any suggestions would be appreciated, guy fashion is not my forte! Lol.” –Jen
Jen–even though it might be a total pain, it’s a great thing that your husband is picky! It means that he cares about how he looks and that he probably looks pretty good! We’ve learned over time that a guy that’s picky about his shoes is probably even pickier than most girls about their shoes. Here’s a few thoughts on some casual-non-sneaker shoes that we think would rock his socks off, pending his current style:

If you didn’t get around to buying a pair of Chukkas this season…here’s a pair for under $100. We love the camel color for the spring time. Keep on walkin!

Ready for the nice weather? So are we! Let’s get outside…see some mountains, waterfalls, and wildlife. What are some of your favorite places to hike or camp in the spring and summer time?? We love Multnomah Falls in Oregon for a nice half day-er!

“I got an email today from Express about their end of the season sale and when I think fashionable and frugal, I think you…as a curious follower, if you could offer insight into fashion standards or looks that will be safe bets on still being fashionable next winter (let along the rest of this one), it would be perfect for these sort of end of the season sales. Just a thought. Hope all is well (and warmer than here… -9° right now… can’t. get. warm.)” –E.J.
First as always, thanks for reading and thinking we’re frugal; flattery will get you everywhere (including into this blog post). Second, -9?? You need some serious warmth and there are luckily some good winter clearance sales going on right now. We recommend layering–start with a long sleeved shirt or button down, get a sweater or hoodie, grab a blazer over that and top it off with your quintessential winter jacket. If you’re still cold then, you should probably get a job at Columbia or Patagonia and get some free gear… Here are a few affordable collectibles for your long-term winter closet:
