SPRING IS UPON US—WATCH WHAT YOU WEAR – PART 2
“Spring is nature’s way of saying, ‘Let’s Party!”
And how true. Spring adds a new sense of life and freshness to all that is. Let’s discuss from where we left in the previous blog, with more men’s Spring wear trends that are sure to stand out this year!
The art of layering
Multiple layering when the sun is out and shining may not sound horse sense, but it can still effuse practicality if done to nicety, as an option. Ditch the old heavy outwear, and pick lightweight jackets and overshirts instead. You can wear them over plain tees, regular summer-ready shirts or polos. And you can remove them anyways if you’re feeling the heat inside. Then just tie them about the waist, torso or shoulders to preserve the visual element minus the extra warmth.
Here’s another trick off the bag to pull off to stay chic and stylish this Spring: going ‘all white’. You, however, need to get it right to achieve that “kingly” state. I know going all white involves a few risks, but it’s worth every effort. Did I say that it can help ward off the heat and keep you cool? Try teaming a sharp, crisp white T-shirt with matchy-matchy chino shorts and a pair of tonal leather sneakers. Now, if that’s all overgoing, why not try a navy overshirt on top just to tone down the underlying effect a bit?
Bare Ankles
Bare Ankles was a cynosure of attraction and hogged the attention in the 2010s. But it’s staging a comeback in the 2020s giving you the perfect chance to get your ankles covered. Though I describe it as little outdated, there’s a lot you can do with it in terms of style and fashion this Spring.
If you must cover the lower portions of the legs with trousers on, I’d recommend restricting it to the summer months. I am not really in favor of your ankles peeping out from the cuffs of a pair of pants, particularly when it is bitingly cold and windy. Get yourself a nice pair of socks to slip into and complete the look.
Oversized Outerwear
Is tailoring going to get looser and baggier in 2021? I feel so, as we transition into a phase where oversized belted overcoats particularly will call the shots. There’s lot more I can describe on this trend which involves the ability to layer. Play it around creatively pairing oversized outwear with pieces underneath creating a lot of room for varying tones and textures. Hang on. I have more ins and outs for you. But that’s for another day for sure.
