Sorry Martina McBride, this one’s for the boys! With the warm summer weather, I am impressed seeing more style coming from our Fashionistos. We let them off easy during the winter as they bundle up in their collegiate crew neck sweatshirts trying to stay warm while walking to class. Ladies, we are guilty of this too! But gentleman, Fashionistos, do not fall in the trap of sporting a workout T-shirt and gym shorts out all summer. You will not believe how simple it is to look put together on a warm summer day by adding some unexpected pop to the classic T-shirt and shorts ensemble.
Here our Fashionisto has paired a kaleidoscope printed T-shirt with solid navy shorts. Every Fashionisto should always remember man’s classic and timeless piece of jewelry, the watch. To finish his look off and keep him less squinty on a sunny summer day, he added his aviator Ray-Bans. But let’s nots not forget his patterned Converse high-tops that seem to pull the whole outfit together with a pop of blue below the knees.
Converse have become increasingly popular within the last few years. From high-tops to low-tops, they are the comfortable footwear of choice for almost any occasion. With the brand becoming popular, the company has put some new twists on an old classic. New vibrant colors come out every season as well as leather versions. The company has also stepped up this shoe with eye-popping prints anywhere from the American flag, floral, Superman, Andy Warhol-inspired and ’70s dobby weave. The best part is that Fashionistas and Fashionistos can both enjoy the these sweet kicks.
How To:Â Find a new pair of patterned kicks to spice up any outfit. When mixing patterns, just be sure to keep them within the same family to avoid a clashing outfit. If you’re not ready to commit to such a vibrant pattern, stick to the classic solid color Chuck Taylors. You can’t go wrong adding this iconic pair to your wardrobe.
