Fashion Dads On Instagram Is Our New Source Of Fash-spiration

A new breed of style icon has joined the ever-growing fashion pack on Instagram.

They make your #OOTD photos look amateur, they've got the #fblogger pose down to a tee and their accessorising is truly on point - socks and sandals? Gee whiz.

Ladies and gents, brace yourselves for... Fashion Dads.

The brain child of Ashley Hesseltine and Travis May, who are also responsible for the hilarity that is BrosBeingBasic - a collection of guys acting like girls on Instagram - this account was inspired by their own fathers' (sometimes questionable) fashion choices.

While their sense of style is nothing short of horrific, we can't help but think that it's so daft that the world of fashion might actually take note. Y'never know, London Fashion Week '15 might see a spike in knee-high socks 'n' loafers...

Even a brief stroll around the neighborhood is no excuse to sacrifice fashion. 💁I paired this 2007 #LLBean flannel with my #Reebok #SwishyPants and topped it off with an #UnderArmour beanie and scarf for extra warmth. As for footwear, #RealMenWearMandalsInDecember. ❄️ 👡#FestiveFashion #StreetStyle #ChristmasEveCouture #Lumbersexual #MyWifeCrochetedThisScarf 👵 #ItOnlyTook6Years #BaeCaughtMeStyling #Candid #GetMyLook #VintagePlaid #ReebokOutlet #NeverSlackOnFashion #ThisDogIsJudgingMe 😐🐶 #FashionDads via @ashhess

'Confidence. If you have it, you can make anything look good.' --DVF. Went shopping @dianawarner tonight and LOVE LOVE this new orange sweater matched with a baby blue khaki short. Great for early spring outings and dinners. 🌻🌺🍃 If you pair it with a long grey sock it is money. 👌 #FashionIsLife #LifeIsFashion #NoSoxInTheChampagneRoom #LoveTheSkinYoureIn #FashionBlogger #LifeIsMyRunway #SteppingOut #DressingRoomFun #NeverStop #SouthernStyle #ComfortAndClass #FashionDads @bundyboob via @dianawarner

I like to call this look the double C -- cozy & chic. 💁 I LOVE pairing a plaid robe with a solid 3/4 zip pullover. It's a subtle but fun way to mix it up! As for the hat, it's extremely important to keep a sense of humor in this industry. There will always be haters out there! #fashionblogger #LoveAndLaughter ❤️😂 #OldNavyRobe #Polo3/4Zip #GapSweats #HanesWhiteTshirtsandSocks #MyWifeMadeMeWearThisHat #HatersGonnaHate #WhovilleStrong #IsCindyLouWho18Yet #fashiondad (via~ @jessieholt_ )

Fashion is always a must, but keeping warm is the main priority on a ski trip. 💁❄️Look like a true #SkiBunny in a toasty purple and black #Gortex coat along with a sexy olive green hoodie. 🎿🐰Stay comfortable in tangerine sweatpants by #Starter (over thermal leggings or long johns), along with some royal blue moon boots. Complete the look with a custom "ugly sweater" beanie and you are ready to hit the slopes! #MoonBoots #FashionDads #MySnowMobileDied #HowAmIGoingToGetBack #MyFeetAreSoaked #CantFeelMyToes #HereComesTheOldBlackFoot #MoonShoesWasATerribleIdea #SoWereSweatPants #ALittlePlaceCalledAssssspen #SwansonSAMSONITE #YouHadAnExtraPairOfGlovesTheWholeTime Via @mckenzieharris

If there's one style mantra I live by: Footwear. Is. Everything. 💁👟 I love these #vintage white leather Velcro sneakers with a navy accent on the tongue. They look fab with my #Arizona relaxed fit jeans and are #fashionable and #functional. #StyleStatement #CasualAndConfident #Velcro #Leather #AllPurpose #DenimDiva 👖💃 #SockGameOnPoint #SportyChic #FashionDads via @nickvia

It's #BoxingDay 👊 and I'm relaxing after all the holiday hoopla and celebrating my #Canadian roots in all red #Polo and a touch of white with my favorite athletic socks. Wearing the same color and designer from head to toe makes a strong and powerful style statement. 🙌#AllRedEverything ♥️♦️🔴 #ColorOfPassion #PassionForFashion #RalphLauren #Relaxation #Confidence #PorcelainSkin #ThighGame #IfYouGotItFlauntIt #BaeCaughtMePosing #NaturalModel #WhyIsThereNoCanadianFlagEmoji? 😡 #LoveTheLifeYouLive #CelebrateYourHeritage via @lizzyorum19

"Until you spread your wings, you have no idea how far you can fly 👼." Having your own clothing line you have to take some risks. 💁 This is one of my favorite pieces. Paring tropical print swim trunks with a classic large striped Polo you are ready for everything from a dip in the pool to a romantic dinner on the beach. 🌴🏊🌞🍴🍝🍷#QOTD #VacationStyle #StreetStyle #Artsy #RiskAndReward #BeachBoys #TransitionalPieces #ReadyForAnything #AllPurposeOutfit #RalphLauren #FashionDads #DIY #Etsy via @bettyblonde
