Mens Fashion: Navigating the Holidays


There is nothing more classic than a peacoat. Steve is wearing a vintage peacoat, Burberry trousers and Frye motorcycle boots. His tie is YSL and his dress shirt is also Burberry. This is a great formal look for those events that pop up during the holidays that some of us dread. Dressing up shouldn't be a headache so keep it simple and remember: less is more..


As much as I know most men hate the idea of formal dressing, it always comes up during the holidays. In order to keep this look clean and streamlined, make sure you wear things with minimal fussy details- go for flat front pants (no pleats!), loosen the tie as soon as possible and roll up those sleeves. My one biggest suggestion is investing in a good pair of boots that can be passed off as dressy shoes and worn casually. You can also do an oxford dress shoe and wear those casually after.


This is such a good look for guys this holiday season- not too fussy but really put together. Here we have a vintafe tweed vest, Prada dress shirt, Burberry straight leg jeans and Frye boots. Good for going to a show downtown and dinner with the folks.  No tie need but a skinny black tie would work very well.

  3. Although he used the same shirt everywhere, there is a definite difference when it comes to workouts. Muscle tank tops for men are very useful, especially for those who may not be able to travel to the gym regularly. Get detailed info about denim jeans on this site.
