Fashion Tips For Men – Dress To Impress Any Time Of Year

Every man wants to look professional and polished throughout the year but changing seasons often bring up questions for even the most fashionable of men. The seasons play an important role in fashion, particularly for versatile pieces such as dress shirts. While a few well tailored suits can be worn throughout the year, you will need to change your accessories to be appropriate for the changing seasons. If you find it difficult to dress for success as the seasons change, follow these simple principles. 

Spring Fashion 

Most men cringe at the thought of springs newest trends. Over the years, we have seen men fall victim to powder blue suits and mint green trousers. Fortunately, those fashion disasters are only a memory from the past. While today’s spring trends also include colours, they are used in much more subtle ways. 

Spring is the perfect time to invest in some new button up shirts to wear under your suits. Be bold and experiment with the latest colours of the season- lavender, pink and powder blue look fabulous when worn with a dark suit or when combined with a smart pair of Levis. 

Men with olive complexions look particularly striking in pastel shirts. If you aren’t up to wearing a pink shirt, consider a pink necktie. Its a step in the right direction and it will get you used to incorporating pastel colours into your wardrobe. 

Summer Fashion 

While spring is the time for pastels, summer is the time of year when any colour works. Summer fashion is more about fabric than colour. The summer months typically bring hot weather to most areas and you want to wear clothes that will breathe in the heat. Stay away from heavy polyester or wool blends during the summer months. Instead, opt for linen, cotton or silk to stay cool. Many men like to shed their sports coats in the summer months, so chose nicely tailored button up shirts and professional ties to wear in the heat. 

Autumn Fashion

As fall ushers in cooler weather, fashion trends begin to change again. In the fall months, choose rich, earthy tones. Soft tan trousers paired with deep orange or burnt red button up shirts look crisp, clean and captivating! If you prefer to stick with traditional white button up shirts, add a touch of fall sophistication with a silk tie in a deep brown or burgundy. Fall is also the perfect time to bring in plaids and stripes to an otherwise neutral wardrobe. 

Winter Fashion 

Winter is the easiest time of year to dress fashionably. As cold weather sets in, you can add more personality to your wardrobe with layers of colour and texture. Dark colours look nice for the winter months, while pastels should be put away until spring comes. You can also incorporate sweaters, cardigans and heavy coats into your wardrobe during the winter months. As the holidays approach, incorporate brilliant reds and rich greens into your wardrobe through sweaters or ties. Red ties look very stylish when paired with a crisp white shirt and a dark suit. 

Year Round Style

Regardless of the season or the weather, you should always pay attention to your style. When you follow these easy tips, you can make your wardrobe look new each season by adding new items. Above all, dress in a way that boosts your confidence. A confident man commands respect from those around him as they notice his professional, confident demeanour.
