Summer Fashion Tips : A Short Guide For Men

It’s that time of the year again, and with the change of summer comes a change of clothes. The following are some summer fashion tips for men that will ensure you look your best this summer whether you’re chilling on the beach or out for a night on the town.

Cool colors – During the summer time, cool colors are what looks best. If you don’t know what cool colors are, try white. There’s no going wrong when it comes to plain white t shirts, however when choosing cool colors look for the colors that best compliment your skin tone. If you want to look clean and fresh, try going with plain solid colored shirts, but be aware that if you are prone to excessive sweating you might want to go with a shirt with a design on it that will hide most stains. Another warning, leave slogan t-shirts such as the classic “I’m with stupid” to grade schoolers.

Wear a decent pair of shorts – If you heed nothing else in this article, get this…wear decent shorts! Keep the length of our shorts nearer you knee than your waist, and keep them a little loose. Even if you think you look amazing in short, tight shorts, unless you are on the tennis court it is just too much. On the other hand, saggy, baggy shorts are too far the other direction and just look sloppy.

Wear a different belt – A change of belt material is an easy summer wardrobe change for men. Changing from your standard leather belt to a canvas belt gives a more casual look to your jeans, shorts, or khaki pants. Wearing lighter weight denim jeans or dress slacks will also look more summery and help keep down your perspiration level.

Have a good pair of sunglasses – A nice pair of sunglasses are more than just a fashion accessory, they are protection against the harmful rays of the sun. Sunglasses help protect the sensitive skin around your eyes, giving you a more youthful look. Aviator glasses are all the rage at the moment and most men sport them well.

Take off your socks – If you are not wearing athletic or dress shoes, take off your socks. There really are no exceptions to this rule. Guys wearing socks with their sandals do not look cool, no matter who they are. (No, not even you.) Your feet will thank you, as well. Keep your feet as clean as possible. (Be realistic; you are wearing sandals after all, a little sand is normal.) Keep your toenails well trimmed. No one really wants to get very close to scraggly toenails and smelly feet. So kick back, kick off your shoes and enjoy your summer looking fresh and cool.
