Summer Trends & Tips for Men (SS15)
Casual smart, sports luxe and streetwear influences
dominating menswear industry trends for a while, bermudas and other
sports-inspired shorts have become the best friends of men during summer.
If you’re into bermudas – which you must by the way - you’ll
want shoes that offers the same degree of comfort and breathability.
Trainers have been in any time of our lives from office look
to daily/weekend look thanks to luxury designer takes and technical runners to
slip-on canvas plimsolls and even hi-tops, it goes without saying that the
humble sneaker is an ideal match for jersey shorts which we may not agree with in
some levels. Sandals are our second
favourite.
- Denim shorts + slipons or not chunky sneakers √
- Chino shorts + sandals + slipons √
Tips:
- If you’re a shorter gentleman, go with nothing above ankle height or sandals, which will combine to produce the illusion of height and longer legs. When it comes to your shorts, go for a pair that finishes around mid-thigh or give the hems a couple of folds to emphasize leg length.
- On the other hand if you have long legs go with footwear styles that have a slightly higher profile. Desert and chukka boots, along with slightly chunkier trainers, brogues and Derbies, would be ideal. Similarly, your shorts should finish on or just above the knee.

13 Style Rules That’ll Help Any Guy Look Taller (via BuzzFeed)
Source: BuzzFeed Style
1. The easiest way to gain an inch?
Stand up straight!
2. Go for a skinnier tie.
4. But skip the Man In Black look
5. When buying a suit, consider these factors.
7. Keep your shirts shorter.
8. And your hair, too.
9. No horizontal stripes.
10. Go for a “no break” look in your pants.
12. Wear V-Necks
2. Go for a skinnier tie.
3. Dress monochromatically
Do what Martin Freeman does, and wear one pattern, or one colour family
all over. It’ll avoid breaking the body line.
4. But skip the Man In Black look
Black weirdly has a habit of shrinking you down (hello, Zac
Efron) and making you appear smaller than you actually are. Instead, opt for a
charcoal grey or blue suit.
5. When buying a suit, consider these factors.
6. Invest in tailoring
This is a no-brainer, but tailoring can seriously transform a
good outfit into a great outfit. When it comes to fooling the eye and
transforming your silhouette, taking things in to make them fit your body is
what will have the biggest impact. Yes, it can cost you, but it can make a huge
difference between looking a bit sloppy and lazy to seeming totally put
together and on top of it.
7. Keep your shirts shorter.
8. And your hair, too.
9. No horizontal stripes.
10. Go for a “no break” look in your pants.
11. Keep the waist button on
your jacket above your navel
Like so. It’ll give you the illusion of a
longer torso and legs.
12. Wear V-Necks
The deeper the V, the
better, but don't go crazy.
13. Wear your trousers at your
waist

Look of the day for Spring: Urban & Cool
The photograph is sent to me by a dearest friend from a sunny place which I don't envy at all! :)
When it comes to men the ones who take dressing up serious are my favourites. Fashion and being a good looking person is not just for women, right? This friend of mine is one of those!
When we go shopping together even I am the woman it takes him much more longer to leave the shop :D But apparently it is worth it!
His sunny day coffe break style:
Sunnies: Moscot
Leather jacket: Belstaff
Watch: Panerai
T-Shirt: Armani Jeans
