Smart casual: Decoding the dress code

by admin

Suits are becoming too trendy these days for men. Because these suits can be turn you into very smart casual either for a very formal one. All you have to do is to know on how to style it yourself and on how you can make yourself feel comfortable while wearing it. Furthermore, there are a lot of suit types available today in the market that you could choose from with and one of which was the neutral or other called it as a basic black suits. But if you are fond enough and pretty adventurous with your own fashion, you’ll probably get excited to the colored type of suits which are recently gone viral as for the Asian men’s fashion. You may look over google on how you can pull off these suits.

Also, ‘Smart casual’ is the dress requirement for many events, including birthdays, weddings and the occasional cocktail party. But the line can sometimes become blurred between too formal and too casual, so what should you be wearing?

When to wear?

It was actually varies on the occasions and it could be also depending on it’s needs. Other can easily pull off the suits for their daily errands while other are too conscious with it and just killing it when there’s any parties up their way. But for the fashion insight, you can merely wear a suits whenever you wanted as long as you’re feeling it and the brings more confident in you!

On the off chance that it hasn’t been indicated, it can be hard to decide when to go for a easygoing look. As few workplaces and work environments have the so called ‘dress down Fridays’ or an casual clothing standard to follow. But like what I’ve said, go for it if you feels it because that’s how fashion works wonders.

Though, a certain company, if you are in to one though, are requiring it as their daily work uniforms opting to be looking neat and presentable. But of course, after the tiring day of the work it’s time for you to party and get ease a little bit which I think you should dress down by simply putting the coat down and roll up the sleeves to loose it up and to be look more party ready guy.

Some staple items

Dressing for business casual doesn’t have to involve the purchase of a new wardrobe. Simply invest in a few staple items to achieve the look.

To be honest, on my personal fashion preferences when I need to be casual smart. I’ll go for my trouser and with my plain basic tee – tucked in. Because this is a generic outfit for a man to thus if you are looking for some style that can make you dope and not so outdated in men’s fashion these days. You can simply follow the basic outfit that I’ve mentioned because I am pretty sure that this look will not go you wrong in any occasions or gatherings you might attend with.

In addition, you can buy off a nicely done blazer to finished off the total look and if it’s need to be formal in a certain time you can add up a little scarf or hankie on your blazer pocket for you to achieved the look easily. But if not, I think plain white tee will do the work.

The full outfit

It might be hard for you to style up for business casual, especially if it’s not something that you’re comfortable with to.  But CT Shirts, who are experts in men’s fashion and retailers of men’s shirts, have made some suggestions for you to follow:

The classic roll-neck

Roll-neck jumper are too essentials if the weather are still cold. But if not, I’ll suggest you to have the tank or plain basic tee to achieve the look. But more or less a classic roll-neck jumper are the legend that you should consider oftentimes.

The open collar

Open a few buttons on a smart shirt to dress it down slightly to get the casual look more. And if you’re confident enough, you can show more off your skin over the chest area but if not, you can always wear off your favorite black tee and pair it with your loosen white smart shirt. This may create a illusion actually for you to have a board shoulder looking. I think, this trick hasn’t yet popular in the western countries but for us Asian guys we also do this when we opt for the casual styling.

And to complete the look, you can get yourself a great pair of sunnies if you tend for outdoor, of course. And you can either wear your beads bracelets for the cool vibes and get the best slip on you could wear to finished off the entire look you’d tiring to pull off.

How To Dress Perfectly For Any Occasion

Style should be lots of fun, but often it can turn into a minefield. From the weather to the type of event, to how you feel about your body, there are so many factors that play into feeling comfortable, on-trend and appropriate for the occasion. After all, there’s nothing worse than the feeling of showing up for something and knowing instantly that you’ve got it wrong. You feel uncomfortable, and then you can’t concentrate on other people and making the most of the experience. Here’s how to get it right:

A Casual Occasion

Casual dressing is the everyday norm for most of us, and to get this area right, its all about quality basics that can be layered up or down depending on the season or where you’re planning to go. Well-fitting denim is your best friend here, because its so easy to dress up or down, depending on what you style it with. Add a floaty camisole top and a pair of classic courts? It’s a great outfit for drinks with friends or a date night. Add box-fresh white kicks and the perfect draped jersey t-shirt? You’re sorted for a chilled Sunday brunch. A selection of long sleeved tops and structured blouses in various colours will serve most casual occasions – whether you’re having a movie night at home or following up those hot gig tickets from The Ticket Merchant. If you want to go a little upmarket, but still retain a bit of a casual vibe, then adding a soft waterfall jacket or blazer can introduce just the right amount of tailoring.

A Formal Event

Formal events can be a bit trickier to get right, but most invitations will contain a bit more instruction about what to expect. Never be afraid to call the host and clarify if you aren’t sure – its much better than getting it completely wrong. You should also take note of the setting and likely weather – for example, a wedding on the beach may work with a floaty maxi dress and flat jewelled sandals, but for a church wedding, you’ll need a more formal dress and jacket, possibly with a small hat or fascinator and heeled shoes. Likewise, an evening city wedding may allow for something slightly more glamorous and revealing. You have to gauge what you know about the occasion in order to modify different elements of your attire. And there are still a few common-sense rules about weddings in particular, such as never wearing white unless explicitly told to by the bride. Find out what colour the bridesmaids are in too and steer away from block shades the same – you should be safe though if you opt for a patterned piece.

Ultimately, what’s appropriate is a matter of comfort – both yours and the other guests. There’s nothing wrong with doing a little research beforehand if you know others attending to find out what they’re planning to wear. Style blogs and Pinterest boards are your best friends for finding modern outfit inspiration and sparking your creative mind.

 

What Men Should Wear This Spring/Summer 2018?

by admin

Some people say that women are more stylish than men. There’s probably some truth to that but there’re men who are also into fashion. They’re knowledgeable when it comes to the latest trends and have every trendy item in their closets and even the timeless pieces. When it comes to trends there’re those that’re difficult to wear because they may be too weird but there’re definitely those that look nice. For those who are fashion-challenged, don’t despair because what’s cool this spring/summer 2018 is already figured out.

Tonal color matching should be on every man’s mind this season. Think of tonal dressing as spring/summer’s answer to all-black everything but way better because there’re more choices or alternatives. Whatever the setting is, for sure tonal dressing will work. A tip would be to start with shades that you already have in your closet such as blue or gray. You can likewise go for lighter neutrals. But a rule in fashion is that you should only wear three tonal pieces in a single outfit.

Menswear’s new go-to pattern is officially the vertical stripe. It’s seen on almost any type of clothing like jackets and coats at fashion weeks all over the world. Wearing vertical stripes is a bit tricky though. When it’s not worn the right way, it may look tacky or funny. Subtlety is the answer to this. There should only be one vertically striped piece at a time and the size of the stripes should be narrow and straight.

Another trend is the side-stripe trousers. Evidence of this is its presence in the catwalk of different luxury designers’ fashion shows. If you don’t want to look like an athlete when you’re wearing this trend, you’d better balance everything. You can wear trainers but make sure to add a slim-fit shirt or a knitted piece.

Dad denim which is leg-friendly, loose fit, light wash, straight up and down, and relaxed is likewise trendy. It doesn’t make you look like you’re trying too hard and is also very comfortable compared to skinny jeans. Wear cropped designs or pinroll your jeans and match with pastel loose-fitting shirts, T-shirts, trainers, and Chelsea boots.

A trend that’s making a comeback is the tropical print shirts. This should be worn with care because you might end up looking comical. Seek out designs in pared-back colour palettes and match with dark tailored jeans or chinos.


Another must-have item are checks. The best way to make checks work for you is to try larger or more complex motifs on outerwear, knitwear, and trousers. Check yourself and make sure that the rest of your outfit is toned down or simple if you want the whole outfit to work.

A hot trend this season are anoraks and windbreakers. They come colour-blocked, in dark and moody shades and pastels. You can style them any which way you want. Throw one on over tailored pants, jeans, shirts, knits, boots, or trainers.

All these fashionable and trendy items are available at Terraces Menswear.

Saving Up For the Rainy Days

by admin

We sometimes want to buy something even if we do not really need it so we end up using our savings, or much worse, getting a loan. That happens because we cannot control ourselves or our impulse spending. We often make resolutions during the new year but end up failing over the months. We tell ourselves that we will cut down on spending and that seems doable in the beginning but that only works when we have a concrete plan and we really are determined to save money and change our mentality when it comes to money.

What is even worse is when something unexpected happens and we end up using our savings or getting a loan. It really is important to have some money in the bank so we can use it for emergency.

Traveling

Start with small steps that will eventually have a big impact on your bank account. Use a megarider ticket and you will be able to travel as much as you want and can tailor your own needs to the ticket type. Whether you are in need of a weekly Bus Pass Prices for your travels or a monthly one, you will definitely save more compared to buying a ticket everyday.

If you have a car, you will spend roughly £168,880 in a lifetime. But if you take public transportation instead, you can save a fortune and make true your New Year’s resolution.

When it comes to payments across the year, petrol costs a driver £1,052.04. Servicing a vehicle costs can add up to £441 over a twelve-month period — which can change depending on what situation you are in. MOTs can cost up to £168.46 yearly. The cost of parking is also rising and there seems to be a higher demand for it because there are more vehicles on the road. When it comes to insurance, this can sway dramatically as younger drivers will find themselves paying a higher cost to be on the road — on average, insurance costs an experienced driver £436 every year. Tax can equate to £116.35 on a yearly basis. Car supplies can cost a driver £29.61. As for speeding tickets, you will also pay a huge amount if ever you get one. Commuters really save more because of a megarider ticket.

Lifestyle

Coffee

According to research carried out by MyVoucherCode, people in the UK visit coffee shops at least three times in a week. This means that Brits visit coffee shops around 156 times a year with an average spend of £8.52 — with travel expenses, this could go up to £13.85. This creates an annual average spending of £2,600, a majority of which could be saved if you would only take your own coffee to work. Try taking a flask to work or buying an on-the-go coffee cup that will see you through your day.

Smoking

If the rise in prices for cigarettes hasn’t already put you off, knowing that you could save a whopping £3,796 (if you smoke 20 a day) should be the driving mechanism for you to quit. MoneySupermarket.com has stated that non-smokers pay around £6,309 less for life insurance, which could be something worth investing in for the new year. Instead of smoking, you can try vaping. 10ml bottles of liquid cost around £5 on average, saving those who turn to vaping around £1,900.

Lunch

According to research carried out by VoucherCloud, buying lunch daily could cost you £1,288. So instead of doing that everyday, it is advisable to prepare your own food because this in the long run, will get you more money in the bank. You could just make a sandwich or cook something in the microwave or cook something easy.

Unexpected expenses

We all have experienced unexpected expenses, with 54% of 2,000 people asked saying that they suffered from an unexpected expense within the household. On average, these costs totalled £248.70 — showing that any saving is beneficial for occurrences like these. Using the savings you would have made by cooking your own lunch and taking your own coffee to work, traveling smarter, and quiting smoking, will definitely make life easier and help you to not worry. Think smarter this new year and change the direction of your life.
