Cheap suits are associated with flimsy shiny plastic buttons that are easily broken or lost during a particularly eventful day. While you’re at the tailor anyway, replace the cheap buttons with genuine horn. Simple but worth the effort!

“Expect nothing. Live frugally on surprise.” –Alice Walker
Do we really need to live frugally on surprise? And that’s the question that will carry all of us throughout this week. Why not surprise onlookers with a simple two-button suit, your wardrobe workhorse? This classy silhouette can be dressed up for marriages or dressed down for the workplaces. It’s an all-in-all option! Looking to get one? Ensure it is navy in mid-weight fabric, as this is the most refined and adaptable option.

Coming back to life means enjoying the truly joyous moments of life through love. I love a linen suit for a summer wedding but the style above is somewhat striking. Accessorize with slip-on loafers or white sneakers for a casual but sophisticated look.

It doesn’t get more casual than the vertical stripe. It is a great way to play around with prints. Secondly, it can make you look taller and trimmer (and that’s a bonus). Go for styles with stripes with varying width. Or simply settle down with classic stripes or even seersuckers, if you’d like to keep things subtle.

Just when you thought everything was over, you come back to life with the Oxford shirt, one of the few structured shirts, which flaunt a clean-cut appearance when tucked in, and an easy-casual when not tucked. It’s a super hybrid, and classic whites and blues have been regular wardrobe staples. Thick fabric offers the Oxford shirt a relaxed edge against the finer dress shirts, whilst the collared design boasts a smart look. All of this works in tandem making it one of the most talked-about smart casual pieces in town.

A simple hack to wear an undershirt tucked with a proper fit
Here’s a simple hack to wear an undershirt tucked with a proper fit. If you put on an undershirt, tuck your undershirt into your underwear first, and keep your shirt tucked on the outside of your underwear for a stronger, neater tuck. Also avoid this possible undergarment mishap.

“What does remembering ourselves mean? It essentially means coming back to life- remembering. “- Gerald Epstein
Are you coming back to life? This week’s post will focus on your remembering yourselves. Yes, through the right outfit for every occasion every day. Let’s start with the suit vest that is quite unique. For one, vests are nearly always full back, compared to the regular tuxedo vest that comes with an open back design. There are two main style options of vests: being buttons and pockets. They can feature as few as three buttons to as many as nine, although the default style for a men’s suit vest is either five or six. And also pockets feature a rounded style or come as welt pockets, which only display a fold of fabric at the opening.
Top tailors are disrupting the made-to-measure market in more creative ways!
Summer is here, and the hunt for the right summer outfit can obviously make you engaged. You need to create the good-to-go state between affordability and styling. How can I pull this off? You may ask. Let me tell you that summers are all about picking the right shirt. And shopping for the perfect shirt is a strategic decision. And there are loads of options when it comes to bespoke, tailored shirts too. Here are some hacks if you’re struggling to pick the right summer shirt.
An off-white shirt can never go wrong:
No matter where you go during this summer, an easy-go, breezy free-flowing casual shirt keeps you fresh and active all day long. Team it up with jeans or your fav pair of formal trousers; accessorize with sneakers. As cool as a cucumber is an overused cliché. This summer, being cool is moving out with a white shirt on.
Monochrome is a winner!
There is a difference between a flowing striped shirt and a monochrome one. The former looks good, come summer or winter, whereas a black and white striped shirt with half sleeves is great for the summers no matter what the event is. Match it up with a pair of chinos or black pants. Give it some twist with a colored bottom.
Navy blue striped shirt is smart & racy
If you feel going monochrome is not your thing, then alternate it with a navy blue stripped shirt having white stripes scattered all over. Go for a thin and soft fabric that is breathable. Put the outfit together with your everyday pair of shorts or even a formal pant dependent on what the situation asks of you.
Relaxed printed shirt for a tropical look:
Printed shirts in soothing colors always throw a cool and calm look. If your choice is a shirt that has prints all over it, earthly looking shirt that lends you tropical vibes, opt for a self-colored, plain-appealing pant. Accessorize it with a pair of shoes or sneakers, and create a stealing look.

“The great marriages are partnerships. It can’t be a great marriage without being a partnership.” – Helen Mirren
Looking to load your look with substantial color? Then this is your suit. The light grey fabric offers a blank canvas, and there is no cap whatsoever on color family. In the spring, pastels are a superbly good match for light grey (alternate red with pink, and light blue with royal) for a great look.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR MY WEDDING – A TUXEDO OR SUIT? CAN YOU GUIDE ME?

Don’t think too hard on what to wear on the first day of your office. Remember we’re discussing the foundations of a solid career through the right outfit. A beige blazer and navy chinos will never let you down when you need that extra dose of poise to defeat pessimism. To add some oomph to this ensemble, accessorize your outfit with brown leather loafers.

For vintage office wear (though not guaranteed for a high-flying career) that are somewhat formal (though not overly so!), you could pick a pair of wide-leg and high-waisted pants. Ensure the pants aren’t too baggy, or they’ll spoil your whole vintage office look. If wide-cut is repelling, classic-fit or slim-fit pants from the 1950s and 1960s should do the trick!
