FOR MEN
1. Throw on a leather jacket
Beauty of a leather jacket is that you can throw it on and get yourself a hot outfit no matter what the event is.
If you have a men’s leather jacket, consider yourself ready for the best outfit you can pick out for your date.
Don’t believe us? A survey showed that a perfectly fitted leather jacket beat a tailored suit and crushed hoodies. What can we understand from that? Those ladies love a man in a leather jacket. Believe us yet?
One of the best ways to style it is by wearing it over a black turtleneck with black jeans. When using black, what may go wrong? You can’t be serious, Jose. In any case, don’t go all-out in black. Shirt and chinos
If the place is not formal but not informal either, we got the perfect outfit for you.
Why not dress up a bit and make a good impression? Not too casual, but not too formal either!
And what’s best for that? A plaid dress shirt and chinos pants. Add some spice by tucking it in and wearing a brown belt. Chinos – another thing that you can never go wrong with no matter where you are.
A Little Tip: Suede boots would look amazing with this outfit.
