So gentleman, the unofficial start to the summer is upon us which also means since the weather changes so does your wardrobe. But what must remain is the mainstay of style. So whether you have packed up to head somewhere tropical and breezy like Miami, Cancun, Myrtle Beach,D.R. style incorporates  some board shorts or speedo.

In NYC if it doesn’t rain your going to BBQ hop like a rolling stone with no home here are some outfit ideas to keep the eyes on you and not the grill.

Camo shorts have been big for a couple of years now so why fix what isn’t broken. Pair with your favorite tee since they are the ultimate utility piece to your summer wardrobe. Of course the fitted cap / Jordan combo is a staple of mine so head into the closet and pull out your favorite pair.

Want to turn it up a bit, ditch the Jordans & fitted pull out your favorite pair of slim jeans and pair with a classic polo. For the shoe game a nice casual sneaker is the move. Some like boat shoes, I personally like a clean shoe which feature different materials like tweed or tumbled leather. Its a classic look updated for the times we are in.

Want to impress? Get well dressed in the lighter neutral hued pants. Usually dressed up with a blazer & tie or with a polished sweater but for the weather we expect dress them down with a denim or chambray short sleeve shirt. A nice pair of oxfords from designers like Cole Haan complete the look and keep you comfortable. Its the perfect finishing touch.

Here’s a few options but obviously there’s many more.. I’m only one man.

Even proper layering won’t warm the chill above your shoulders and below your wrists & ankles. This winter your neck, hands, feet and your dome will standout with these accessories.

Dome Shot

Everyone knows your body heat escapes from your head first. Just like you would never leave without your shoes a hat on a cold winter day is just as important. You can give in to the frigid brutality of winter with yet another black wool cap, or you can pull on one of these knit hats and laugh in its face.

Protect Ya Neck

At the risk of sounding like your mom, put on your scarf, boys. Nothing worse than a guy who thinks he’s too tough to dress as warmly as possible for winter. Cashmere, merino wool, cable knit, chunky, colorful… the options are boundless!

Warm To The Touch

We all want to text til we pass out but during a blizzard you might lose a digit or two. Don’t fret the options continue, for your pleasure theres fingerless gloves (not just for rockers anymore). For the rest that can put there iPhone down there’s leather, wool, cashmere and of course the classic mitten.

Best Foot Forward

If you’re still wearing the same thin dress socks, listen up: adding wool to your sock drawer is a warm and effective way to add a creative splash to the more toned-down hues of your winter wardrobe. And, with designs like preppy argyles, ribbed solids, arrays of stripes, or any number of funky, esoteric designs, you have plenty of palettes to choose from.

With these accessory options for winter your style will remain as cool as the temps and wont suffer a meltdown.
