Back to School Fashion for Guys

Back to school is around the corner, which means it’s time to invest in a new fall wardrobe. Fashion for guys this year is all about plaid, graphic tees and nautical style.

The Basics

Some fashions come and go, but the classics are here to stay. When buying back to school clothes, make sure you’re armed with the basics: neutral tees - in whites, greys, blacks and browns - slim (but not skinny) jeans, and a stylish blazer. On top, play with colors and patterns using graphic tees, stripes, plaid and this year’s step away from the norm - nautical (sailor style). This includes horizontal stripes, mainly in white, black, navy blue and grey.

Make a Good Impression

If you’re aiming for top grades this year, it’s important to dress the part. A put-together outfit will give your teacher a good impression. You can’t go wrong with a polo shirt in its many styles: the regular polo (or collared shirt), a polo oxford, or a polo sweater. If you’re not into collars, no worries! Layer your basic tees with a nice knit or cotton crew-neck or v-neck sweater.

No More Baggy Pants

This year, pant legs are narrower than the ugly baggy jeans that add bulk and sit about halfway down your boxer shorts. Fitted pants (and we’re not talking about tights here!) are more attractive and more professional.

Accessories

Accessories are just as important for guys as they are for girls. Matching your shoes with your belt will give you a complete look. Invest in a pair of black vans and you’ll have shoes for nearly every outfit. In winter, add a knit scarf for a pop of color.
