It is certain that trackies, baseball caps, trainers, etc all have their place at certain stages of life, but if these are still your only go-to outfit, then this article is certainly for you. In this write-up we will be discussing 8 clothing essentials men should have in their wardrobe.
Below are the Clothing Essentials For Men
An Expensive Watch
Despite the digital age we are in, watches still speak volumes in the style game. Maturity means making the move from a sports watch to a more classic timepiece which will increase in value, sentimental and otherwise. Please avoid fake watches.
Blazer As a Clothing Essential
It’s the entry point to the captain’s table, a classic navy blazer to smarten up everything you own. It can also be worn with the dress shirt and chino or jean look, but it looks equally fabulous over a striped t-shirt and shorts.
A Pocket Square
A small detail with next-level impact. A silk pochette tucked into the slit pocket of a suit. Other excellent details include cufflinks and, also gaining in popularity, a lapel pin. Especially if it has been handed down through generations or found in an antique store.
Dress Shoes As a Clothing Essential
Not all dress shoes are created equal. Look for a gently tapered and rounded toe. Go for the best leather with the finest sole, and always polish them between wears.
Dress Shirts As Clothing Essentials
It’s remarkable how long it takes for young guys to get into button-up shirts, especially when they think a polo or a t-shirt will suffice, but a good quality dress shirt really plays hard ball in the style stakes. Up your game and make sure your dress shirt is 100 percent fine cotton, fitted to the body and flush at the neck. A white tuxedo shirt with French cuff is the winning shot.
A Tuxedo
An elegant, fitted black tuxedo is a must have for every black tie event you will attend. Make sure you have the suit adjusted by a tailor to your exact body shape, and ensure the pants are hemmed to the right length. A trouser that puddles at the floor is a reminder of the ill fitting suit that you probably wore to school formal.
The Three-Piece Suit
This suit is rarely seen anymore, but there is nothing more chic, more confident and more fabulously old school than a three-piece suit.
A Cute Leather Travel Bag
Why ruin a good suit with a grubby backpack, cheap briefcase or canvas duffel? Invest in a smart designer bag that will last for years and make a more positive statement about your personal style.
