Since we spend much more of our time in situations like these, it makes sense that we should re-evaluate our collections of shirts, skirts, pants and other accessories and learn to put together outfits that appear polished but informal.

Nearly everyone in America owns, or has owned a pair of denim jeans. This clothing item was invented in America and a pair of jeans has come to be a mainstay of pretty much all wardrobes. Most population reconsider the humble blue jean an item of clothing that is only approved for the most casual of functions, but the truth is that jeans come in many different styles that can be dressed up or down to fit in beautifully with practically any kind of function.

For the summer months, reconsider buying jeans with a lighter tone that have minimal brown or gray tinting. Minuscule distressing also creates a popular ,favorite look. Lighter jeans coordinate great with animated shirt colors that are typically sold during the summer. Most short-sleeved shirts, polos, and screen printed tees will pair nicely with this shade of denim as well. If pairing for loafers or sandals, a brighter jean will pair perfectly to elicit a casual flair to the outfit.

In the colder months clothing items like v-neck sweaters and mock turtlenecks are a good choice, especially jersey-knit or zip-up styles for the latter, which are becoming favorite with young men. Pair these tops with a pinstriped blazer or herringbone jacket and you will have a clean, pro look without it having to be a formal firm outfit.

If you are trying for a pulled together and sophisticated outfit, it is best to stay away from shorts. Worn with a branded top or shirt with a goods logo printed on it, the outfit says you are on your way to the beach or to go work in your garden. If you wish to wear shorts, there are several, popular ,favorite alternatives that can be made from cotton or even light weight wool, and worn with a plain tank top or short sleeved button down shirt are a more approved outfit for many casual encounters.
