Men’s Summer Wardrobe. Here’s Everything You Need
Summer is the most enjoyable season of the year, but it is also the most hardest to dress for. Layering comes to a halt (for the most part), shorts are prohibited at work, jeans are out, and how many summer weddings do you have? Ahhh! So, before you tumble down a sartorial rabbit hole, take a deep breath and relax—your style confidantes here at Teeanime Recommends have the solutions you need to brighten up your warm-weather wardrobe. Here are 15+ scientifically proven strategies for getting huge fits all season long.
A Splashy Camp Shirt
The only bright summer clothing in town are Hawaiian shirts. Choose a camp shirt that’s vivid, psychedelic, and/or completely off-kilter to inject some drip into your summer look.
A Frosty Necklace
Dress up your naked clavicles with a simple curb chain necklace, some colorful summer camp-type beads, a pearl-laden choker, or, if you’re feeling particularly daring, everything at once.
Jorts
Swap out your blue jeans for some baggy jorts before everyone else does.
Do-Everything Loafers
Don’t be misled by the name. Loafers are the workhorse shoe that can do anything. A solid pair of loafers can handle any sartorial circumstance, from black tie gatherings to beach-bound hanging.
Star-Making Sunglasses
With all due respect to the world’s aviators, it’s time to move on from the staid classics. During the sweltering months, you’re wearing a lot less, and sunglasses are one of the few methods to have some fun.
The Beach-Day Texturizing Spray
Even if you don’t live near a beach, a few spritzes of Verb’s texturizing hair spray will instantly transform you into a hot surfer.
Double Duty Swim Trunks
Swim trunks are useful for more than just going to the pool or the beach. They may (and should) be worn as regular landlubber shorts as well.
The Face-Saving Exfoliator
Soft skin is essential for achieving that summer glow.
The OOO Sandal
When the weather rises above 80 degrees Fahrenheit, a pair of breezy sandals is a necessary. No socks, no plans, just the relaxed energy of a well-deserved holiday (whether or not your boss actually approved your PTO).
Well-Rounded Sun Protection
With a rakish bucket hat, channel the energy of an unwittingly swaggy grandpa.
The Tee That Punches Above Its Weight
In the summer, you need all the airflow you can get. Even if you’re wearing a simple T-shirt and shorts outfit, freeing up the silhouette will do a lot with very little.
The Surprise Slip-On Shoe
Mules are like a wonderful relaxation.
The Ritzy Sunscreen Upgrade
Admittedly, this is more of a year-round healthy practice, but using a strong sunscreen is essential—especially when those UV rays are hitting your face full force.
The Anti-Billboard Hat
The sun is wonderful. Squinting is not one of them. So invest in a good hat that you can wear with any outfit. We love the humorous, slogan-laden versions, but there’s something unmistakably good about a simple hat that won’t turn you into a billboard.
