How to look elegant after work?
Men tend to reserve elegant clothes for work or special occasions. It may seem that a good look is appreciated only in business relations and during important formal celebrations. But it also influences social relations, being popular with women and one's frame of mind. Every man should aim at obtaining the best possible look. Thanks to that he can be seen more favourably by the environment, he can get more trust, respect and, when the opportunity arises – more self-confidence in various everyday situations.
Let's ask a question: how to dress up in order to look good but not boring after hours? Stylish and nonchalantly at the same time? Although in informal stylings the corporate dress code looses the mainspring, it's worth to obey some rules, which allow you to present yourself really well all the time.
The primary association with elegance is usually a blazer. Instead of reaching for the top part of the suit and matching it with jeans, we suggest to invest in a comfortable and casual blazer. The perfect one should be characterized by a good fit and comfort. It works well in a version with a single button, which is perfectly-designed and nicely underlines the men's silhouette. Moreover, remember about the details. Lapels, elbow patches, fine pockets and contrasting details attract the sight and boost up the look giving the whole individual character. While choosing your new suit jacket pay attention to the colours and fabrics. We suggest corduroy, wool, cotton and even denim. If it comes to colours, there are no limits. Feel free to pick a navy blue or a grey one, but also brown, claret or in the shades of blue will be a great choice.
Jeans fit best to informal outfits. They add freshness, nonchalance and provide comfort. But here you also have to remember about one thing. Jeans should be straight, without noticeable decorations, cuts or badges. They shouldn't be too wide as well. We encourage to try out the stylish chino cut and invest in a beige or navy blue pair once in a while. Men's trousers in expressive and unusual colours can also be considered. Claret and green work well in autumn, as in summer it's worth to pick grey and sky blue.
In sets with a casual blazer try to use informal shirts. They don't have to be plain, you can put on a model with a subtle checked pattern. Casual sets can consist of a single or double button-down collar. Leave the tie at home, unbutton the collar and roll up the sleeves. A trendy men's shirt is just one element of a styling perfect after hours. Casual men's blazers look good also together with a T-shirt, a cotton longsleeve, a V-neck shirt or a turtleneck. You should pay attention not only to the cuts, but also to colours and decorations. It's worth mentioning that basic plain T-shirts in neutral colours are very universal and can create many outfits. The effect gets even better when we add interesting colours corresponding to the accessories and details, such as belts, outsoles and bags.
In order to create a stylish look after hours give a chance to jumpers. Especially to cardigans, plain V-neck jumpers or thick ones with an amazing collar, which can be worn with a shirt. Go ahead and try out the loose cut option.
Similarly to elegant stylings, shoes and accessories are also really important. Instead of classic formal shoes, you can choose comfortable slip-ons or trendy moccasins. An interesting element of a styling can be a warm scarf, a patterned pocket square or a leather jacket instead of a sporty one.
