The summer is behind us, but I live in Florida where there are really no seasons. So fortunately the men are able to flaunt their physiques all year round. I love to see a man in well fitted clothing that compliments his body. With that said, there really are some fashion don'ts I would like to see men put an end to.

Watching your man walk around the house in a white undershirt and boxers can be a turn on. But there is something about him throwing on a pair of jeans or shorts and walking out the door in just a white undershirt that seems a bit off. Unless a man has a body like Tyson Beckford and is off to film an underwear ad; it just doesn't work.
I love sandals on men. Sandals with shorts or casual pants are very sexy. But, unless you are an AARP card carrying member you shouldn't step off the back porch wearing sandals with socks.
Short Shorts
Grown men can wear shorts. The question is how short should it be. Hot pants are not a good look. Unless I am at the beach or at Trinidad Carnival, I prefer to see less leg. According to Artofmanliness.com a man's shorts should hit 2 to 3 inches above the knee. Effortlessgent.com says between 2" and 1"above and 1" below the kneecap. That seems about right.

Capri Pants
Capri pants are mid-calf pants. I really dislike capri pants on straight men as much as I hate perfectly trimmed eyebrows. It screams femininity.
Full Athletic Gear
Wearing a basketball jersey and shorts are cool if you are going to shoot hoops or run to the corner store. Wearing a complete LA Laker or Knickerbocker outfit on a date seems juvenile even if you are just going to Red Lobster. When the sun sets the basketball jersey and matching shorts need to be put away.
