Simple

Linen is a great way to be KlassiQue in the summer.  A fantastic fabric that has a nice look, lightweight, and allows air to flow keeping your cool when it’s warm outside.  The best part about linen, other than the fact that it is fairly durable, is that it can be worn day or night with a look that will surely distinguish you from the rest.  Although acceptable to wear fitted, it’s meant to be worn a bit loose, and lighter colors are best during the day, while darker ones at night to keep a KlassiQue look.  You can surely substitute these for slacks at any time.  White linen comes out in the late Spring and Summer, and is great to start the summer off.







Sophisticated

Silk knots are silk woven strands that are formed into balls, barrels, or squares to replace cuff links for french cuff shirts.  They are less expensive, lighter and a colorful alternative to traditional cufflinks that have a more winter or formal look.  Normally sold in sets of 2-4, they are great way to highlight or bring together colors of an outfit and match great with summer fabrics.  You can find these in places such as Nordstrom, and Macy’s.  


Classic
Sandals of any type says summer all over it.  Not only do they allow a comfortable feel, but a casual look that speaks to the great and lazy days of the summer.  At the beach, the weekend getaway or the Sunday afternoon BBQ, they are perfect with linen pants or jeans.  Stay away from bright colors and stick with blacks and browns, yet the occasional white is surely a look for others to admire if you can pull it off.
