The simplicity of dressing is magnified in the springtime. It becomes imperative to dress warm and cool at the same time. It also makes the task of dressing easy with a simple formula: slacks or jeans, shirt and tie and dress shoes or cool sneakers. Add accessories to your comfort level and you're done. These basic principles worked well on friend to the magazine, Noel Fisher, on his shoot for us in the current issue.
The blueprint is simple. All you need are a few great key pieces and you have the makings of a great outfit for any occasion. Just follow the model.... Good slacks or jeans, and a basic shirt that can be made cool and interesting with a funky tie. Feel free to show a little personality.
Good accessories are a must no matter how minimal. A sturdy belt and classic shoes are always a DO. A watch should be worn in any adult situation, but have some fun with it. Carry a bag for your laptop and electronic devices, but be sure the bag doesn't resemble a woman's purse. Check out our example of an outfit idea to get your mojo flowing. Think outside the box and give the formula a try.
