Menswear Summer 2013 ESSENTIALS

Summer 2013 is going to be the season of Prints, Neon Colors, and Lightweight vibrantly colored apparel. Instead of the dull/dry sandal this year, add a little print to it and STRAP it up. Another footwear choice of the season will be the monkstrap loafer. Tassels are hip, but lets face it, a double monkstrap is hipper. The top houses showcased their collections by offering a wide variety of intricate prints, definitive cuts, and unconventional pairings. Short sleeve (printed) button-ups reign supreme in lightweight materials such as linen, and pairing them up with cohesively printed shorts will most certainly be a winning combination. Finally if you’re dressing it up on any given occasion a lightweight yet vibrantly colored chino is the way to go, throw on a statement (BLUE) blazer and you’ll be the sartorial king this summer!

  • Minimalistic “Gladiator” (Flat) Sandals
  • Monkstrap Loafers (Brown)
  • Short Sleeve Printed Button-Up
  • SHORT Shorts (Printed)
  • Lightweight LITE Color Chino
  • Statement Blazer (Blue)
