Back to School Style Mistakes Men Make
About this video
Weston outlines seven common style mistakes that men make when heading back to school, including wearing socks with slides, logo-heavy outfits, basketball shorts, and excessive workout gear. She recommends practical alternatives like slip-on sneakers, minimal logos, joggers, and well-fitted basics, while emphasizing that small efforts in grooming and outfit construction can significantly improve one’s appearance.
Key takeaways
- Weston argues against pairing socks with slides, recommending slip-on sneakers like Vans as a more attractive alternative that maintains comfort and ease
- Weston cautions against wearing multiple logo pieces in one outfit, as it can make someone appear like a ‘hypebeast’ and look embarrassing at school
- Weston emphasizes that minimal grooming effort—a proper haircut, moisturizer with sunscreen, and occasional use of a baseball cap—can set you apart from peers without requiring extensive routines
