That Fresh Fit: Tailored Looks for Spring

So you’ve been trapped in meetings all day and have after work drinks planned, but don’t have time to go home and change. Be that elusive guy who can do both with cool tailoring looks created with casual shirts, and sneaker or boot styling to help make you look like you have beauty and brains. (Don’t stress, it can be done.)

Some of the strongest colors to come off the menswear Autumn/Winter ‘17 catwalks, teal and bottle green work perfectly for tailoring. Moving on from the olive tones that were so popular in the winter months, teal drags you into summer with head to toe tonal green looks. Sharp suiting with casual styling drags you from the boardroom and, hopefully, into the bedroom.

Classic lumberjack shirts are given a more refined look when matched with clean jackets and streamline trousers. And the busy checked patterns help break up color-drenched suiting combos.

Clean and classic leather belts break up head to toe color. Opt for black and silver, or matte black buckles for a more minimal look.

Casual boots help dress down that smart, professional outfit, and work perfectly with a rolled up trouser hem. Sneakers give a bit more of a grown-up skater boy feel.
