Three Looks For Your Dress Shoes

Your shoes are a statement piece for your attire no matter the style. Even with the most casual of wardrobes, your shoes are something that can either make it or break it.

Dress shoes are a classy staple accessory when you dress to the nines. However, dress shoes might actually be a bit more versatile than you think. Eric shows us how matching your dress shoes with a more casual look can be a bold, edgy, yet eloquent combination.

We're going to take you through three different looks that tie in absolutely great with your favorite pair of luxury dress shoes.

Look #1 - Business Casual

The style is business casual. Crack out the dark wash denim folks. As a side note, Ace Marks go great with any dark, raw denim jeans. He combines this with a standard striped t-shirt from Frank & Oak. Take notice to wear a belt of similar color. Doesn't necessarily have to be exact, but the closer the better. Eric also likes to mix up his sock game to keep it interesting. This type of look is not commonly thought to be worn with a pair of high end wingtips. The shoes and the jeans actually compliment each other well and provide a nice contrast.

Look #2 - Casual

Next up, casual - Eric bring out his go to look, denim on denim. This look is bold all in itself. You slap on some nice dress shoes to go with it, and you have a killer combination. With this look he also sports raw denim, but with a more washed out look than the pair worn for business casual. He opts to throw on a wool vest to add a little contrast to his Levi denim shirt.

With the denim on denim look, you can button the shirt up or down depending on your preference. You also have the freedom to go outside the box with your belt and other accessories.

Look #3 - Smart Business

Last but not least, Eric's signature look. When pairing his custom made suite with the Ace Marks shoes, he masters the "corporate" or "smart" look. Don't hold back with this classic style. Eric sports an auburn tie with a matching pocket square. His vest is textured wool atop his white shirt. With this look, it is important to pair your belt together with the shoes.

In the case of Eric's style suggestions, these shoes are just that, a power statement. Additionally, Ace Marks offers a unique buy back program. How does this work?
