When you start to do the things that you truly love, it wouldn’t matter whether it is Monday or Friday; you would be so excited to wake up each morning to work on your passions.

The first key to business casual dress is to wear items that fit. Buy a tailored blazer and let this serve as the cynosure to your overall look. It should be slim enough and not baggy. Ensure it isn’t so tight that you can’t comfortably move about with the top button fastened. As for your pants, be smart about the break. While some people can pull off a dress pant without any break, most will want a tapered trouser having a cuff that gently rests on the top of the shoe.

Let me take you through a ravishing classic this Wednesday: Classic black and white or blue stripped
You can never go wrong with the classics. This look will bring together all your passion for blacks but in a sophisticated style. Striped blazers/jackets have really made a massive comeback. Black and white striped jacket will be good to go here. And it will definitely be versatile. Keep your shoes formal and a pair of sunglasses will only add to the overall mysterious charm.

When not to wear Button-down Collars?
Do not wear a button down collared shirt with a double-breasted suit, either. These suits are by nature dressier than single breasted, and it would be a fashion blunder to mix the informal collar with the dressy suit!

The point of wearing a casual shirt is not only to look stylish but also to stay comfortable. Make sure to check that the fabric of the causal shirt is really light and breathable. In addition, you must see that the fabric is sweat absorbent and doesn’t stick to your body. Try going for a casual shirt with a breathable quality fabric.

1960s mod, or modernist, fashion is characterized by clean lines, slim fits and narrow cuts. The style – embraced by The Who, Brian Jones and Steve McQueen – is done of the most enduring trends of the last century. Classic outfits such as box-like jackets, knitted polo shirts, tapered trousers, Italian-cut suits featured bright colors and patterns. And most of these mod-style pieces are still regulars on store shelves!

Corduroy, as a fabric, is easy to spot. These pants are great for colder weather, as they will heat up and keep your legs toasty. If you’re prepared to make an entrance and appreciate the classic design, choose to style these bottoms with a jumper button down, or blazer. These look fabulous in a casual setting, so why not pair them up with a T-shirt, loose sweatshirt and sneakers?

So, how do you get the perfect fit for your shirt?
You need to ensure the shirt fits in three key areas — chest, shoulders and neck — and then try to get as much right as possible.
The rest of your shirt can be conveniently altered by a tailor, and won’t cost you a bomb. But your chest and shoulders are usually unalterable. And collars can be altered, but it isn’t easy to do without ruining the shirt.

The art of layering
Guess what the world’s best-dressed men are all experts in layering, and it’s particularly effective for smart casual looks. Provided it’s not the height of summer. It’s the magic number for creating that all-important sense of depth. Case in point: a fine-gauge knit between an Oxford shirt and blazer transforms a default pairing, as does a collarless gilet between a roll neck and overshirt. Don’t be afraid to get creative.

In 1965, Michael Caine, the great British film icon set the fashion stage on fire when he appeared in a dark suit, white shirt, and slim dark tie; impeccable you may say, but it’s Caine’s attitude that still smolders, over half a century later.
