What to wear
MENSWEAR FROM THE WORKPLACE TO THE WATERING HOLE
July 31, 2008
 

Dream of sandy beaches and blue water? So do we! And though you may be stuck in a cubicle admiring the beautiful sunshine and cloudless skies through a tiny, shared window, that doesn’t mean you can’t transport yourself to the islands by dressing like you’re already there!

 

Lightweight button-down shirts are the perfect staples for summer-to-fall wear. You can wear them with denim, shorts, khakis, or even paired with a casual linen blazer.

Choose a button-down shirt with subtle details like a textured tonal stripe that comes in black or white. You can dress it up for the office with linen pants and a great pair of dress shoes.

If you need to make a quick dash from the office to the beach, throw on a pair of drawstring shorts for a more laid back look. Add some personality to your shorts with an abstract printed belt. Top off the look with an army brim cap, great shades, and some leather cuffs.

A lightweight, thin voile fabric is perfect for those hotter days. One of the best looks right now is a paisley print, voile button-down shirt. Keep the look clean by sticking to neutrals and white and black. Or, if you're really feeling tropical, pair a lightweight button down shirt with a pair of crisp white denim, a straw fedora, and some puka shells.

Now you're ready to hit the waves.
