Shirt // Pants // Belt // Shoes
Things are getting slimmer, trimmer and more custom fitted these days. With little room for oversized and saggy apparel, it’s slim down or ship out. Fret not, just because the fit is changing doesn’t mean your personal style can’t shine through with it.
I love a slim fit pant, always have. Somewhere between standard and skinny lies a magical sweet spot of fit. Normally, the word “slim” can worry some because if you’re like me then you can’t stand having to squeeze into your favorite outfit. These pants are J.Crew‘s slimmest fit yet, for guys who like their chinos slim, not skinny. With a comfy yet tailored appeal that makes them perfect for the boardroom and flexible enough for your weekend events. Get you a pant that can do both!
Pairing a slim pant with the appropriate shirt can sometimes be the hardest part. You don’t want to look like your wearing a picnic blanket with an oversized shirt but too slim of a shirt and your bound to look like sausage casing. I love an oxford, in terms of both the fabric and the style. This one’s lightweight, looser feel works particularly well during heat waves but plays nice in more professional pursuits.
Keep these rules of slim trimming in mind when pulling together your next look, and you can bet your svelte little self that it’ll be a winner.
Ps. Don’t think I’ve forgotten about the shoes portion of this look. Save yourself time and money and invest in my favorite shoe right now!
