There’s a couple of questions to consider? What summer events are you likely to attend over the next few weeks and what are you going to wear to make sure you set the right impression? Men’s fashion has never been so popular and there are an array of summer styles and staples.
Day at the Beach
Summer wouldn’t be complete without the obligatory day at the beach. Whether you go with friends or family, you’ll want to stand out and look your best. Shorts are a must as there’s nothing worse than being over-dressed on a sandy beach. Big and bold patterns are right on trend this season and there has been an increase in floral designs hitting the men’s catwalks too.
The above floral print swim shorts are ideal for hitting the beach–relaxed yet bold and brave. You will definitely attract attention in these. If floral isn’t your thing, then there are plenty of other patterns and colors to choose from out there. At the beach, you really can get away with anything, so be bold and show up this summer.
The Festival
One of the best things about summer is the amount of live music festivals. No matter what your taste in music is, there is a festival to celebrate it. Represent at your favorite music festival and be ready to stand out from the crowd in vibrant colors and prints.
Perhaps, try a tank. Easy to pack and light to wear, you won’t overheat in one of these. Again, big bold patterns are attracting a lot of attention this season so why not combine the two trends and go retro with a geometric print tank. Team it with a pair of ripped denim shorts for a rock ‘n’ roll finish.
Holiday Clubbing
If you’re heading abroad this summer and planning on hitting the bars and clubs during the evenings, then you need some on-trend gear to attract the right attention. A great pair of jeans can make or break an outfit, so it’s vital that you pick the right ones. Distressed denim has been gracing the catwalks this season and it’s quite popular right now. Ripped jeans give your outfit a tough look without losing any of your style points. Destroyed jeans like this are the extreme end of the scale but do add something special to an outfit.
Dinner Out
The longer and warmer evenings of summer are ideal for eating out. Sitting outside a restaurant, enjoying spectacular food and great company is one of summer’s pleasures. It can start to get cooler in the evening and you don’t want to ruin it by being the one who complains, so a long-sleeved tee is the way to go.
Essential tops such as striped tee above provide for effortless style whilst pulling off a cool kind of casual which works great in summer. Light colors also feel cool and look great with a summer tan. Now is the time to fill up your wardrobe with your summer essentials to make sure you are looking and feeling great every time you step out the door–no matter where you are headed to.
