Spring came early for most of the USA this year. While white polo shirts and khakis seem to be a staple for many guys, sometimes you just want to venture out and try something new. Here are a few options you should consider:
Double breasted jackets are back. They are not as structured as their earlier versions, however. The light blue and peach tie make this a great spring suit for a wedding, the races, or just a nice night out on the town.
This is not an easy look to pull off. The pants have an Italian 2-inch cuff and expose some enough ankle to feature the sock less slip-on dress shoe. The shirt is tucked in the front but left un-tucked in the back. Also the pants have a rolling waist, which can look droopy on the backside if you don't have some good support back there. Another option for those who do not want to ruin a good pair of shoes by sweating in them: wear low profile "invisible" socks...often worn for sports. Aviator sunglasses continue to be popular.rA cotton or light wool blue suit looks good on anyone. A simple white shirt and the white handkerchief ad style in the midst of simplicity. The sockless trend has been growing for the past two to three years and will be in full force this season.
I purposely did not choose young models for this post because I have been told that I feature clothing that only skinny-jeans wearing models could look good in.
What do you think of these options? Would you try any of them?
No summer wardrobe is fully complete without the perfect pair of sunglasses. Guys, the good news it that there are a lot of different styles that you could wear that are in vogue these days. There’s a resurgence for the third time of the RayBan’s Wayfarer as well as strong come back of the Aviator….
The Fashion Friday post makes a come back. Today’s topic: men’s haircut. This is of personal interest because I decided to grow my hair out six weeks ago, and now I find myself in the awkward transitional stage, or what I call, one-more-bad-hair-day-away from getting it chopped off again. I’ve heard it said that most…
For this edition of the Fashion Friday post, I’m tackling a very sensitive issue that I often get asked about. While my own policy might not be popular, I think it’s the right one. So what’s the place of cologne or perfume in the workplace? How much or how little should you wear to work?…
As if there were not enough ambiguity in trying to define “business casual” in the workplace, we now have “smart casual” showing up in magazines, invitations, and office policies. Wikipedia’s vague and convoluted description of “smart casual” is evidence of there being no real standard for the term: It has been suggested that smart casual for…
Stripes have been a staple in men’s wear for decades. We wear them in suits, shirts, pants, shorts and even undergarments. But not all stripes are created equal. You should know what type of stripe works best for you and why. I see a lot of guys wearing vertical stripes when they should be wearing…
A new job comes with new opportunities, challenges and, most likely, a new dress code. A friend asked me this week “I need new clothes for my new job, but I have no idea what to wear.” There are a lot of pressures about starting a new position and your wardrobe should not be one…
