My male friend wears bright socks to ballroom dance in and flashes color all over the dance floor as he takes big steps - perfect! But the average guy doesn't move his legs up and down enough to even show off his socks until he's sitting down. I would say if someone wants to do this, he has to wear pants just a hair too high - and be absolutely sure that the length looks intentional.

Seems a little jarring, maybe even unsophisticated. Not something I'd be comfortable with. I frankly don’t “get” the idea of bright socks. Seems a little jarring, maybe even unsophisticated.

I love your posts for men, especially the ready-made-outfits, and I'm looking forward to great looks for the fall with more possibilities for layering and jackets. Can I make a request? A lot of working guys like me have to dress business casual (that can mean a lot of things, but in my office it's basically no jeans or tennis shoes, but nothing as formal as suits or ties unless you want to look out of place). Any ideas on stylish, affordable looks that stand out from the army of Dockers and light blue shirts?
