Get That Look Guys: June 2009

The "Lacoste" look is very in this summer for guys. It's a simple look to get, and can be worn either casual or dressy. It only looks flattering on a certain build though, due to the shorter length of the shorts, or the rolled up style of jean. Remember, that for the short styled version of this look, you would need to wear shorts that go just a bit below mid thigh, otherwise it looks too grungy. For the top, a nice polo will usually work, as long as it's not from stores like Abercrombie, Aeropostale, American Eagle, or Hollister. Another good choice for a top would be a plain button down in a pastel colour, and make sure it is slim fit.

It is very easy to accessorize this look. You can add a straw fedora and a big gym style bag to your outfit for a more casual look. Or, for a classier dress look, you can add a blazer.

Another way to switch up this outfit is with the shoes. For the casual look go for a nice boat shoe, or white sneaker. And, for the dressy look go for a low soled pointed derss shoe in a brown or black. Sometimes a white dress shoe might even work.
