7. Optional: Brown beanie
First impression:
Eye-catching casual style. Looks like a laid-back, confident guy who knows how to dress!
Breakdown:
The weather is getting warmer! And as we need fewer layers, we’re going to have to use our heads to be creative with our outfits, especially as we move into the summer. But as of now, it still gets cold at night, so keep on layering!
Today’s style inspiration will show you a great way to layer without getting too hot.
Let’s get to it.
One of my favorite things to wear during the spring time is a denim jacket. It’s great for layering because it’s thick enough to keep you warm enough when it’s breezy out, and thin enough to keep you cool when the sun is beating.
It’s also a classic staple item that I think every guy should own. Personally, I love a dark wash denim jacket - like the one shown above - because it makes it a lot dressier than a lighter one. That way you can wear something pretty casual underneath and not look like a bum.
I really like this green plaid shirt here because it adds a fresh spring color and pattern to the outfit. I love the way the shirt is used to dress down this outfit, by unbuttoning it down to the fourth button, also revealing a low-cut white v-neck. It makes the outfit so much more laid back and it’s perfect for keeping you cooler during the hottest part of the day.
If you do this, make sure you tuck it the shirt as shown to maintain a dressed up look, otherwise you might end up looking like a slob. The tucked in shirt here reveals the gold buckle belt that matches the gold buttons on the jacket. A necessary detail because silver would not look good here. Try to match gold with gold, silver with silver, mixing the two rarely looks good.
I also have to mention how I love the way that he folded up his shirt cuffs to add that extra color to his sleeves. It’s a stylish touch that reveals everything was deliberately done.
Now guys really don’t know how to wear khaki pants, but one of the best ways to wear them is with a denim jacket. You get to keep the “jean” element which gives off that same laid-back vibe your favorite pair of jeans carry, but the khakis make you look a lot more sharp.
A pair of pointy dress shoes would go great with this outfit, like the ones I linked above. I say pointy because they look less like the shoes you wear to the office and more like a fashion piece. They also elongate your legs and make you look taller. Please stay away from box-toed shoes!
The dress shoes may make the outfit too dressy for some, but wearing a matching brown beanie keeps the balance between dressy and casual so it’s not overdone. Otherwise, you can always opt for a fresh pair of sneakers!
