Fashion: Spring / Summer

With Spring arriving, the winds of fashion change and more exciting part of the year emerges.  Everything from fabric to colors change and the true gentleman shines.  Here is how to stand out this spring and summer season.

Simple
It’s important that you dress to your body type.  If you are smaller or thinner, be happy and wear more fitted clothing.  If its not, then see a tailor or seamstress to get that corrected.  For those who are larger or more full body, make sure that your clothing doesn’t hang off of you, but not so close that it seems a size too small.  That doesn’t look appealing.  Remember when buying clothing, it’s easier to scale down the size than to add cloth.  

Sophisticated
Colors & Fabric: With Spring here and Summer soon to arrive, wearing different colors are certain to make a better impression, and you can do this by wearing brighter colors and patterns.  By doing this you are certainly going to stand out from others.  If worn correctly, you won’t have any problem with having company those nice summer nights.  Colors to look out for this year are Orange, Green and Yellow.  Lavender around Easter and late spring, and the brighter blues are great leading into the summer.  Then you want to switch to the baby blues and other softer colors on occasion once summer has arrived.  There is nothing wrong with the traditional tan or white.  By all means though, if you are confident in wearing pink, do it.  It’s a great color.   


     Fabric is an area that most people bypass or miss in the Spring and Summer. There are so many great fabrics out there that are not only fashionable, but elegant too.  Focus on wearing linen, loose cotton, tropical wool (mostly used with suits) ramie, jute and silk.  These fabrics are not only great for hot and humid weather, at the same time they have a unique and klassique look to them sets you apart.  I know jeans are always in style, and certainly welcome, yet linen or tropical wool can give you a look that is unique and memorable.

Classic:

Accessories: To complete your look you want to take advantage of some accessories.  The watch transforms your look when using a leather band on occasion instead of always the metal one in the fall and winter.  This is especially handy at the beach or on those spontaneous day trips.  Sunglasses are standard gear, and pick a style that fits you best.  You can never go wrong with Aviators.  Belts aren’t necessary in the summer, and it’s a great summer look. I’ll leave rings to your discretion, but remember not to many.  you wear rings not sell them off your fingers.
