Wearing white is a staple for the summer. After all, you’ve probably been hiding all your white attire waiting to unveil them after Memorial Day. No matter the occasion, wearing white with a touch of color, yes black is a color, can make you look very refined. Make sure you stick to light fabrics like linen for suits.
So you and your beau got an invite to a hot summer party and you want to look like a pair without going overboard. Here are two outfits that will make you both look chic.
I can’t resist a man in a suit so I chose a summer version for the gents. I paired a Ralph Lauren Congressman Linen Sport Coat with a Theory Damien Cotton/Linen Shorts to make a shorts suit. Black is chic and flattering so I chose and Ike Behar Solid Black Dress Shirt to go underneath the suit. Complete the look with a Stefano Ricci Satin Tie, Jump Men’s Slick Mocs, Risky Business Sunglasses, Emporio Armani Men’s Black Plate Watch, and a Christy’s – Black Woven Tie Fedora. Tres chic!
Okay Miss Fashionista, you’ve got your man ready and now it’s your turn. What to wear? How about this monochromatic look for the warm summer night. Get dolled up in this MINT jodi arnold Color block camisole dress, Giuseppe Zanotti Patent Spectator Open Toe Pumps, Ribbon-tied long pearl necklace, David Yurman Pave Diamond X Ring and a Dolce & Gabbana black patent leather buckle chain bag. Don’t forget to carry a Tide detergent pen in your bag just in case you spill a cosmo on our dress.
