This one’s for the guys who spend eight hours a day in the office. When it comes to dressing for work, some places are more relaxed, while others demand a specific look. I once worked in a place where the dress code was strict: full suits, ties, light shirts, dress pants, polished shoes - the whole nine yards.
If your office lets you dress comfortably as long as it’s professional, consider yourself lucky. But I know a lot of you hesitate to wear a suit, worried it might make you look "old." Don’t stress - a suit can be youthful, fresh, and still give off a professional vibe.
Here are some outfit ideas to help you stay sharp without feeling like you’re aging yourself in the process:
Softening a classic light blue suit: Pair it with a white t-shirt and white sneakers for a more laid-back, modern look.
Single-layer blazer with navy chinos: Add brown suede derby shoes and a light blue polo shirt for a balanced and polished vibe.
Chambray shirts: The breathable fabric is perfect for the office. Pair a gray chambray shirt with khakis and leather loafers for an effortless yet stylish outfit.
The navy suit "classic": Combine a navy suit with a crisp white shirt and leather shoes. Want to add a bit of flair? Try a slim-fit knitted tie.
Casual Saturday vibes: Throw on a slim-fit light blue shirt (untucked), indigo jeans, and white sneakers for a relaxed weekend-ready look.
Layer with a thin sweater on colder days: A gray pullover over a white shirt, with the collar peeking out, paired with navy dress pants. For a formal finish, go with black dress shoes, or lean smart-casual with polished leather sneakers.
White + Black, never out of style: A classic off-white Oxford shirt, slim-fit black chinos, and a pair of Vans make for a fresh and stylish combo.
Tired of dark blazers? Switch it up with gray tones, which pair well with just about anything.
Denim shirt + blazer: This combination is expected to be a big trend this winter. Match it with jeans in a different shade and finish with dark brown brogues for a stylish edge.
Go bold with color: If you're ready to experiment, try deep green. Pair a green jacket with beige chinos and create a standout look that still feels grounded.
Rolled-up pants for the weekend: A perfect casual look, especially when teamed with some clean sneakers.
White jeans: Don't be afraid to try them. Pair with a dark shirt and suede Chelsea boots for a striking contrast.
Polo shirts as a dress shirt alternative: A great way to mix up your office attire with a polished yet relaxed look.
Blazer + striped t-shirt: One of my favorite combos. A blazer can feel too formal, but a striped t-shirt "lightens" it up. Together, they strike a perfect balance of casual and refined. Perfect for those breezy fall days!
