Watch
So your wristwatch is not merely for glancing at time, it also says a lot about you and is an extension of your style statement. Invest in a classic piece or even build your own collection of watches to match your various looks—ranging from formal, casual to sporty. So, all you men out there, flash your wristwatch and make an impression to last!
Shoes
A man's shoes are an important part of his character and a window to his personality. As they say, 'judge a man by his shoes'. Different types of shoes can be worn according to your specific dress type. For formal dressing, invest in a classy, well-made pair of leather shoes. For a more casual look, you can sport loafers, vans, sandals, boots, boat shoes and many more.
Sunglasses
A pair of cool shades not only protects your eyes from the harmful UV-rays of the sun but also adds a dash of style quotient. An array of sunglasses are available in various shapes and styles which should be matched according to your face shape, which in itself is a daunting task. There are a plethora of frames, ranging from aviators, clubmasters to wayfarers and many more. So take your pick and make some heads turn!
Belts
This one universal item is owned by almost every man on this planet and probably every man has his own collection too. A belt complements the look if you are wearing an impeccably tailored suit or even your casual pair of jeans. Belts are often matched with shoes on formal occasion. A brown and a black belt is a must-have for every man.
Cuff Links
This vintage accessory is ultra formal and wearing it implies that you mean business. Stylish cuff links can dress up any formal shirt. Cuff links are available in various metals ranging from artificial metal silver to even gold.
Tie and Pocket square
Nowadays, ties are not only restricted to office wear but it can be worn casually with jeans as well. Choose your tie carefully and pick a knot that complements your shirt collar. Don't fall for that cheap tie as it can sabotage your entire look.
Pocket square has become a rage and can distinguish you from others. It makes you a savvy dresser too. But as a rule of thumb, pocket square should not match the tie, but it should complement the shirt and tie.
