Summer is just about to start and warm weather means one thing: long days on the beach, barbeques, outdoor weddings, short trips, festivals, concerts, and the list goes on. The question you are faced with is how does a modern day gent survive all these summer events in style and comfort? Don’t worry, I’m here to give you a game changer that will prepare you as a for sure winner in the game of fashion. I have compiled a cheat sheet of 5 must-haves that require no risky bets, but will hit the jackpot and have you looking amazing from now until Labor Day!
MUST HAVE #1 DOUBLE BREASTED BLAZERS
The double-breasted blazer has apparently made a comeback this season. Are you ready? Ready that is to embrace this 80’s favorite with welcome arms. Already making its fashion mark from the runways to it’s over night popularity on street style blogs the double-breasted blazer is here to stay. HOW TO WEAR: When it comes to this trend think clean and simple. Try not to over complicate on how to wear this piece, instead keep it simple by finding a tailored and sleek cut blazer. Stay away from baggier fits, because it could end up looking like a bad vintage find from the 80’s.
MUST HAVE #2 PRINTED BLAZERS
For those guys who need a sure shot of style, this is best way to get your adrenaline flowing! Printed blazers are a great way to show off your style. Out with the classic blazer, and in with the new age blazers for your night out with the guys. From plaid to florals, and even grids, there is a pattern for everyone.
HOW TO WEAR: Go for a tailored fit, and also wear with solid color shirts and bottoms. For a more relaxed vibe pair with jeans, whereas a more dressed up feel pair with trousers.
MUST HAVE #3 COLORFUL SHORTS
The easiest way to transition into summer mode is by injecting color into your shorts. Go beyond the classic colors of white, beige, and navy, and get more adventurous with brighter colors like red, yellow, orange, electric blue, and teal.
HOW TO WEAR: First and foremost, find a pair of shorts in the desired color that fits properly. Since the shorts are a bold statement, stick with neutral color tops to create a more balanced look.
MUST HAVE #4 WHITE SUITS
Wearing a suit in black is already quite the challenge for most men, however there is something to be said for a man who can pull off a white suit. The color white can be quite tricky to pull off, especially when worn from head to toe. From fashion editorials to designers, everyone seems to be encouraging all men to rock the trend.
HOW TO WEAR: The trick with wearing all white is to make sure textures contrast in order to prevent it from becoming tacky. For example, a white cotton shirt looks good with a linen suit, whereas a white t-shirt balances out a silk jacket.
MUST HAVE #5 COLOR BLOCKED SHIRTS
Block a part of your wardrobe to designate this trend as part of your summer style! Color blocking has permeated men’s fashion for a while and is stronger than ever. It's perfect for those who aren’t fans of busy patterns but still want a pop of color.
HOW TO WEAR: Whether you choose horizontal, vertical, or diagonal, color blocked shirts is an easy way to jazz up any look. Treat this as your new go to black t-shirt and wear with your favorite pants or shorts. An easy way to wear color-blocked shirts is to stick within a color palette. Whether you choose neutrals, pastels, citruses, or jewel tones colors, picking a color palette for your overall look creates unity and allows for you to pull off this item with ease.
