Just the Essentials

Fashion is a fickle thing. Seasons change, trends flux, and what’s ‘in’ one day is out the next. Style, however, is a different matter. Despite the cyclical trends in fashion, certain men’s clothing essentials – a bomber jacket or a denim jacket – will always keep you looking good, no matter the time or year. Check out just the essentials for guys this spring!

THE SUIT

Zegna is everything you need in a great go to suit. The traditional tailoring combined with the modern fit makes for a timeless piece, plus you cannot go wrong with a clean gray color. You can keep it professional with dress shoes, or dress it down with some clean sneakers for a relaxed look.

THE DRESS SHIRT

A white Oxford shirt is one of the most versatile pieces a man can own. Eton‘s slim fit, pre-pressed looks good dressed up, dressed down or worn alone.

THE DRESS SHOES

Nothing beats a pair of simple black dress shoes -especially when you’re not sure how to get your footwear collection started. Magnanni shoes are an excellent starting point. They’re simple, stylish, and a no-brainer option.

THE JEANS

AG jeans are as classic as they come! The medium wash, slim fit, and slight amount of stretch are perfect for your every day denim.

THE BLAZER

Get a go-to blazer with a little stretch and you’ll never dread having to wear it for long periods of time or while traveling. Canali uses a stretch wool fabric and has a no-fail slim cut. This one looks good paired with its matching pants or with mismatching pants for a less formal look.

THE WATCH

For a versatile watch, look for classic shapes and colors that wear well with different colors like the ones from Zegna. A black leather strap, a white face, and gold hardware is a smart choice for every day, on the weekends, or in a suit.
