Chances are this summer you will encounter at least one party invitation that calls for “casual chic”. This set of words vexes most men, understandably so, it smacks of paradox, like alcohol-free beer.
So what does casual chic mean? The look is distinctly relaxed yet intentional rather than just something you threw on, in essence, suave. Like James Bond on his day off. Here are a few examples of summer casual chic.
This outfit is from Banana Republic. The driving moc paired with the shorts adds elegance to a summer a look. Fantastic use of layering. Extra points if you can rock the Fedora.
Linen military inspired shirt from Macy's paired with well fitted dark jeans. A nice watch is the perfect accessory.
The combination that brought the casual chic trend front and center, jeans and a blazer. In this outfit, the rope belt continues the comfortable feel of linen shirt and softly structured cotton blazer.
With this info, I am now well equiped to be “chic” for the Style Watch cruise. Thx, Em!
