Hi, lovelies!
This week’s column is for the male-identifying members of our campus community, because fashion isn’t just for women. Fairfield overwhelming boasts a well-dressed student body, and the men are no exception. However, for those gentlemen who are a little lost in the style department, or for those ladies who want to give their boyfriends a little fashion boost, here are some basic rules to being a well-dressed man.
- No matter what your body type is, if you wear clothes that fit your frame you will look good, particularly on fancier occasions. It has been said that a man in a well-fitting suit is to a woman as a woman in lacy lingerie is to a man. So, run with that gentlemen.
- Sperrys are great and fulfill the quintessential Fairfield look, but there are some occasions that call for something a little less nautical. A good pair of leather shoes works for anything and are especially good for dressing up an otherwise super casual outfit.
- A basic rule in the fashion world is not to wear light-wash jeans after the sun goes down. Dark denim looks better and is more appropriate for nighttime.
- If you got a T-shirt for free at a school-run event, don’t wear it to a party.
Nonetheless, if you feel best in baggy suits and Sperrys, or want to hit the Townhouses in light-colored denim and a Late Night at Barone T-shirt, then that’s fine too! Fashion has a lot of rules, and some things do look better than others. However, if you’re comfortable in your skin, you’ll look good no matter what.
Have a happy week guys and gals, and enjoy this beautiful fall weather!
Love,
Dre
