Mens Spring Summer Fashion Formula #4: Add Visual Texture with a Pattern

Mens Spring Summer Fashion Formula #4
Feeling the love for this set?  Here’s more information about it.


Sure, solids are easy to wear, but we love breaking up blocks of solid color with patterns.  Our favorite pattern to play with?  Thin stripes, which feature a breezy nautical feel while remaining completely polished.  Here’s how to add visual texture to an outfit of mostly solids:

1.  Start with your basic solids: a lightweight hoodie in crisp white and a pair of grey denim jeans.
2.  Add visual texture with a polished horizontal striped tee.  Note how the black and white complement the soft white and grey tones in the rest of the outfit.
3.  Finish off the look with a neutral colored messenger bag and a pair of retro-inspired sport sneakers.  We’re digging the light blue sneakers juxtaposed against the tan of the bag.
