Casual Cuff Links

6 March, 2012

I know how oxymoronic that sounds but it is possible. Spring and Summer are not only more open to louder colors but they’re also more forgiving when it comes to perceived relaxation of formality. A great way to accomplish both is to swap out your metal cuff links for some knotted fabric ones. You can usually find these in packs of three at department stores and they come in a variety of colors.

 

There won’t be anything in-your-face about these and that’s great. Good style is all about the details.

I never would have thought to put something like this together and it looks awesome. Transitioning between seasons is always a tough sartorial trick to pull off and here is an excellent example. The shirt and tie are spring staples, while the jacket still has the necessary winter weight. Any man wearing this is bound to get some positive responses.

Why Fit is so Important

Look at this guy. Seriously. Look at him.

Everything he’s wearing should look awful. His hair is slicked back with way too  much pomade. He’s wearing a tacky, printed Hawaiian shirt and it’s untucked. The articles of clothing themselves should be bad. The combination should be even worse. But because of the way everything fits matched up with his devil-may-care attitude it looks suprisingly and frustratingly good. I don’t like admitting it, but it’s true.
