It’s summertime, and I have a list of items that will make you look amazing this summer. These items will make you look smooth and sexy this summer.
- A bathing suit with personality. You don’t want the shorts to be too long, and they should accentuate your body to make your legs look longer.
- White linen shirt. A simple, gauzy white linen shirt is perfect to combine with your swimsuit. It’s ideal for the beach or vacation and looks excellent. When combined with a pair of chinos or regular shorts. Roll up your sleeves to the elbow level, as I demonstrate in this video. Expose a bit of forearm to look extra sexy.
- White, minimal sneakers. These are perfect combined with your swimsuit, shorts, jeans, and pretty much anything. Dress down a summer suit with white minimal sneakers as well.
- Summer suit. These are lighter suits, perhaps made of cotton or a blend with silk and linen or a lightweight wool. These suits are lighter in color and feature a slightly gauzier fabric. You can’t go wrong with a glen plaid pattern or a more fun and playful color like light blue or tan.
- Lightweight cotton tan chinos. You could even go with off-white. Both tan and off-white match pretty much anything. Combine them with a simple polo.
- Polo shirt. The best option is from Collars and Co., as you can dress them up or down. It doesn’t have a button, which makes it more stylized, and it also doesn’t have a huge placket. The fabric is sexy.
- Light wash denim. Opt for non-distressed, with minimal fraying, and a slightly warm tone. The lighter wash will make you look crisp and clean, which you can combine with a polo or white button-up shirt. You could even layer it with a tank top.
- Loafers. Brown loafers are perfect for summer, pairing well with jeans or shorts. Additionally, pair them with lightweight chinos or your suit. Brown is often a better choice than black in the summer.
- Shorts. Gray and black are perfect, but you could also go with camo. Make sure your shorts aren’t too long. They shouldn’t be as short as your bathing suit, and the length should be proportionate to your height. Super-long and baggy shorts can make your legs look smaller, so it’s essential to ensure your shorts aren’t too bulky or blousy. They also should not be too long.
- Short-sleeved oxford. It’s clean and simple, allowing for easy layering. There are many fun button-up short-sleeve shirts, ranging from those that are a bit more gauzy or see-through.
- White crew neck t-shirt. This works with everything, including your bathing suit, shorts, chinos, light wash, denim, and more. More. You could also go for black, although darker colors are typically suited for cooler months.
- Fresh sunglasses. A badass pair of sunglasses is one of the best accessories. Choose from classic styles like Aviator, Wayfarer, or Clubmaster.
- Fun colored slacks. These are a must-have for spring and summer, as they pair perfectly with loafers or minimalist white sneakers. Throw on a white polo and tuck it in. They can be worn to a party, event, dinner, barbecue, or any other occasion. There are so many different, playful colors.
Tank tops did not make it into my list, but they’re an item every guy should have this summer. They’re perfect for layering underneath a shirt, such as a button-up oxford. Layering is a great way to express your individual style. And it’s fun.
