While we're constantly ranting about women's fashion trends and style, do not for a minute think that we've forgotten about all you men. We're always keeping a keen eye on the latest 'happenings' in the fashion world even for all you boys and there's something that we just realised. What's that you ask? Well, we've interestingly deduced that our B-Town men have increasingly been ditching their formal shoes and instead, working cool alternatives to spice up their formal looks. Scroll on to know how you too could lend that quirky twist to your formal looks this wedding season with just footwear. Also, we’ve seen that disgust when you’ll have go polishing those formal pairs of yours.

Let's start with Akshay Kumar. Akshay was seen donning a green suit and he completed the look with brogues. But wait, they weren't your usual ones. The actor chose to go with a pair of brogues that interestingly featured an elaborate painting. The shoes instantly amped up his sharp outfit. His shoes make for the perfect pair for someone who wants to go funky but still stick with the usual formal look too!


Rahul Khanna has always been known for his understated yet uber-cool style and the actor proved just that when he turned up on a red carpet donning a pair of shoes with his formal look without socks! The actor went with a pair of slip-ons to complete his three-piece black suit. The shoes featured tassels that lent that usual formal vibe to his look and the slip-ons lent that smart-casual vibe to his sharp look. You could work something like Rahul's pair with even your Indian formal looks this wedding season.


Lastly we have millennial actor Sidharth Malhotra. Not only did the actor work a T-shirt with his two-toned suit but he also went with a pair of black sneakers too! The black slip-on pair lent that sporty vibe to his formal look and thus lent that edge as also quirk to it. Even though Sidharth has kept it rather simple, we love how he did it differently. This season, you too could work your everyday black sneaks with your suits and trust us you'll grab a few eyeballs!


This cool trend won’t just keep you looking dapper and trendy but makes for a very comfortable fad to follow too. Go on… work it now before it’s too late.
