Fashion is all about expressing yourself, but when it comes to men's fashion subtlety is everything. Especially if it's trousers we're talking about.
Whether you're headed for college, work or a night on the town busy trousers or jeans are a fashion no-no -- no matter how big a Govinda fan you are.
Large checks, thick stripes, heavy embroidery and embellishments and flourescent greens and yellows are strictly forbidden. Not only are they conspicuous, they are a nightmare to match with tees or shirts. Chances are you'll end up looking tacky instead of trendy.
If you do like trousers with some texture pick a pair that have fine stripes or almost-not-there checks that lend a hip yet understated look. Save the colours for your shirts, where almost anything goes.
