There are some rules to making weekend wear really work for you.....read, read again, and act!
- When in a pinch, stick with a white button-down....but then again, try to add a little flair with a check print or pinstripes
- Being on vacation is not an excuse for ignoring style rules
- Holes/rips in jeans? Yes. In sweaters? No.
- The shinier or pointier the shoe, the less casual the shoe
- Bomber jackets = brown. Bikers jackets = black
- Denim is the universal "yes" so everything that works includes tweed, cotton, sneakers, brogues, loafers and jackets
- Age adds a bit of patina to everything including white shirts - so keep them new!
- Velour sweatsuits - no!
- Watch weekend wear is leather
- Never tuck in sweaters or turtlenecks; always tuck in shirts that hang below your hip
- Please refrain from wearing anything that shows your nipples
- No need for petal pushers or rolled up jeans...unless you're wading in water
- "BBQ," "Bring the kids," "Come as you are," "BYO" = casual
- Baseball caps - yes. Fedoras - yes. Trilbys - yes. Berets - no.
- If you're kinda wide, horitzontal stripes are not your friend
- Tees and tanks are underwear, not shirts. Plan accordingly.
- Feel free to let it all go - as long as pulling it back together, takes less than an hour
- Fitted is appropriate. Snug is uncomfortable. Tight is wrong.
