Will Rogers said “You never get a second chance to make a first impression”. Make sure you look your best, right down to your shoes! The rule is to always shine your shoes when you first buy them, before you wear them, then shine them on a regular schedule after that. A little preventive maintenance will go a long way to help protect and preserve your shoe investment.

There are a couple of different choices when it comes to polishing your shoes, cream or paste and wax. It is also a good idea to use a good leather cleaner. This will help in dirt removal, buildup and moisture.

Shoetrees are also always a must. When your not wearing your shoes, always place trees in them to absorb moisture and help keep their shape.

With such brands as Gravati, Toschi and Aldo Brue, Norton Ditto has one of the finest men’s shoe departments in the area. Feel free to contact Johnny or Pat with questions concerning shoes or shoe care.

If you are wearing a basic black, single-breasted, three button overcoat, great classic choice. Have you thought about putting a scarf with it? A strong pattern or an unexpected color can take this classic to a whole new level of fashion. A scarf is not just for the cold winter days, it is a great accessory with a sport shirt, sweater, or leather jacket, paired with jeans. Wear them loosely around your neck for creating the unexpected.

Scarves can be luxurious in silk and cashmere, outdoorsy in wool, and everyday in cotton or rayon. The sky is the limit. Plaids, solids, stripes…it’s all good.

Don’t know how to tie a scarf? Here are a couple easy to follow steps for totally different looks.

Traditional way, just drape it around your neck.

One of the simplest ways to tie a scarf, and make a statement, is to fold a long scarf in half and knot the other end through, pulling tight. This look is very European, very Italian, not to mention very elegant. This can look fantastic with a sport coat, jacket or sweater.

Drape the scarf around your neck and allow one end to be longer than the other. Take the long end and bring it around your neck and let it fall over your chest. Loosen the knot afterwards or if you have a shorter scarf you can keep it tight.

You can wrap the scarf around your neck once or twice and drape it loosely.

Wear your clothes. Not talking frequency here, though you should, by all means, get the most bang for your buck. Talking about enjoying what you wear. Own it, because if you do that, you can’t help but look like a confident man of style.

Don’t count the plain white shirt out! Think Robert Graham or Georg Roth LA, both have versatile white shirts, with fantastic attention to detail. Under a stylish sport coat or suit (forget the tie and leave the collar open), leather coat, vest or sweater, they are anything but plain vanilla!
