So last week we introduced you to timeless fashion, and published part 1 of this 2 part series. If you never caught part 1, check it out here – Timeless Fashion: Part 1. If you have already caught part 1, we’re going to be discussing some other timeless garments and also introduce you into a FREE Timeless Style eBook which has just been launched. To recap, timeless fashion is hugely important. It’s been in trend for centuries and will continue to do so, we are taking influences from style icons and focusing on timeless fashion and garments which won’t go out of trend anytime soon. So far we’ve covered the blazer, the coat and ties, it’s now time to discover two more timeless garments.
Jeans
The most timeless form of trouser available is the jean. I personally haven’t met someone who has never worn jeans before, but I’ve come across A LOT of people who wear jeans badly. The problem is, a lot of guys have one particular jean style they like, and there’s nothing that’s going to change their mind. Here are some helpful tips to do with jeans:
- Guys with slender frames, you are more suited to the skinny fit. Hate them or love them, slender body frames are going to pull these off better than anyone.
- A pair of straight leg jeans will work for most guys. Jeans today are made in a variety of cuts, but the straight leg normally comes up perfect for most men.
- Washed denim is fine, cut denim isn’t
- Get jeans, which fit perfectly around your waist. A belt isn’t stylish when it has new holes spiked in to hold them beloved jeans of yours up. A belt shouldn’t be used for the function of holding up a pair of trousers; it should be used to add detailing to a look. So get the perfect waist fit!
- The slimmer the leg of the jeans you opt for, the longer your legs will appear.
Jeans go with anything, making them the perfect timeless trouser. Other alternatives are chinos, cords and tailored suit trousers.
Sweaters
A sweater can be used to add a different dimension to a look, perfect for preppy but also perfect for casual trends. Layering a shirt and a tie underneath a sweater will add a preppy, elegant touch, but wearing the sweater alone paired with jeans will add a casual approach. The sweater is so versatile, and is perfect for layering in the colder days.
