'Tis the season for layering the fuck up.
Black Fleece dub monks in Greenville?!?!?! Things are moving in the right direction...
funny faces, serious clothes
Monk straps and shorts goes against a bunch of rules. Which means it might be a bad idea.
Except when it's not. And I'm saying it's not. Definitely atypical. And hardly acceptable by some standards of #menswear. But IDGAF.
They're basically loafers—albeit a jumped up, more formal iteration of loafers—and so I'm wearing them as such. Double buckles, bare ankles, and a beautiful, rich shade of bourbon keeps them casual enough to pair with a simple, clean summer kit in light blue and cream.
Helps to have some legs, too.—AH
If you want to know if my closet threw up on me the answer is YES, YES it did. But a beautiful creation came out of this, a perfect mix of prints and a well tailored look actually. Im not doing anything innovative here today, I just noticed I had 2 separates in my closet that needed a bit more love. Today I put them together and called it a printed suit. Suit: Topman Shirt: Louis Vuitton Watch: Topman Socks: Soxxy Shoes: Beckett Simonon 3 simple ways to pull off the trending printed suit look:
Go hard or go home
If you’re going to do the printed look keep it bold, if the pants have a very small print and the jacket has big bold prints it just looks un-porpotioned. Not in a high fashion type of way, in a weird way.
Tailor it
We all know a suit can’t be 100% perfect but 2 bold prints and a ill fitting suit together is just breaking all the rules. If you are going to take the risk make sure its sleek fit.
A white shirt
A white shirt will break it all up. End of story
Too intimidating?
I understand that this can be too much. Try a printed blazer and pair it with black jeans or dark denim at first.
Would you try it out? What colors would you stick with? I think I will be trying it this Spring/Summer. Sound off down below!
