ALL IN THE DETAILS: Layers

Layers are all the rage right now, and as we are approaching the hot summer months, this trend is able to make a transition from heavy winter layers to light summer layers. Late summer afternoons are a great time for barbecues and get togethers. As the sun starts to go down, it starts to get a little chilly, and the best way to maintain a summer look is with layers; they are a great way to adjust to the weather, and they also add a fun flair to your outfit!

This Fashionisto is ready for his summer evening in his cool khakis. As opposed to jeans, khakis keep the look light and summery. He pairs his pants with a simple muscle tank, a casual article of clothing that can be worn almost anywhere from the beach to a night out. To take this Fashionisto’s outfit from simple to exciting, he layers his basic tank with a patterned short sleeve button-down. His layered look is light enough to survive the summer heat while still looking his best!

The layered look worn by the Fashionisto is taken to the next level with a pop of color! His bright red shoes add a fun flair of color and helps tie in the whole look. A fun addition to the look are his red sunglasses, tying in the red from the shoes to create a cool, complete and stylish look!

How To: To achieve the layered look in the summer, start off with any graphic T-shirt or tank top. From here you can add a short-sleeved button-down, kimono, shawl or a light sweater to spice up your outfit while still looking casual.
