^this. Black belt with black loafers / black oxfords for more "formal" look, brown loafers and matching leather belt (kudos if it's genuine alligator/croc) for more "casual" days.

This + lululemon ABC pants, Charles Thyrwhitt / Proper Cloth shirts and a nice watch and that's all you need to look like a typical finance bro! Sprinkle in a few vests, Barbor jackets and Peter Millar q-zips and you're ready for any spreadsheet thrown your way regardless of what the weather is like during your 6 minutes outside. Yes, it's a bit of a walking stereotype but it's easy, you don't have to think about it and you can focus on performance and not fashion!

 

Yes always. If you decide to, highly recommend slide belts (all I wear these days) which do not show the wear & tear you see accumulate on traditional belt holes.
