We all have those days where we peek inside our overwhelming closet and get hit with the inevitable question: what should I wear today? If you’re stuck in a rut between dressy and casual, you can now get the best of both worlds. Say no to that indecisive mind of yours and show it who’s boss!
They say opposites attract and, in this case, it couldn’t be more true. There are various ways to attain this dressy casual look simply by mixing and matching these two elements together. It exudes a certain kind of structured, polished but relaxed appearance that could not be achieved without one another. A feeling of being put together while still being comfortable at its best. You may say they go hand-in-hand. Girls, we do this so often—whether it’s pairing ripped jeans with a pair of heels and a statement clutch or tucking a T-shirt inside a pencil skirt. It seems like the possibilities are endless.
But the boys are few and far between. Have no fear, this Fashionisto’s here to show us the way! Start with a button-up and chinos, here we opt for shades of blue. Buttoning the shirt up to the collar and cuffing the bottom of the pants is an intricate detail that goes a long way. It helps add to the dressy-casual vibe.
Although they aren’t the main focus of this attire, the real stars are the accessories and sweet kicks. This Calvin Klein denim hat is super laid-back. Paired with tortoiseshell Ray Ban wayfarers and a Burberry watch and he couldn’t be more sharp looking. Factor everything together with neutral New Balances that are switched out with brown lacing and it’s the perfect match for this blue ensemble. You too, can now rock this ultimate duo!
