Ok I need some help. I'm trying to broaden my horizons and step outside of the basic solid colors. I'm going to Chicago next weekend for a graduation and need suggestions on what to wear. I'm not planning in rocking a suit
I have some dark brown boat shoes I'd like to wear but they've been sitting brand new in my closet since last year because I can't put anything together with them
Help a breh out
Nobody can tell you what to wear. It's gotta be your own style.
You can wear anything with boat shoes though. Chinos...jeans...polo shirt...button down casual shirt...whatever.
If you're going to wear the boat shoes though, it's not exactly a great look to wear them with socks. Most people wear them sockless. Or you can get no-show socks like Ninja Sox

You probably don't have time for them to ship tho.
I know DSW carries 3-packs of no-show socks made by Sperry...but they're a bit pricey. I wanna say like $15-20? It's fine but seems a bit much for 3 pair.
I don't mean to actually post a Pinterest link, (I don't subscribe to the site), but this fashion blog could offer you some ideas and you could piece your stuff from things you like

@BLAZO da GAWD seems to be the fashion authority of the forum though, so I'm sure he could steer you in another direction if need be.
@ThiefyPoo offers a lot of advice on here too
