STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Keep It Classic

March 16th, 2015 at 2:00am

This website is all about honing in on your creativity and giving style your absolute top notch effort, but sometimes (most times) the effortless takes the cake. And what style can you ace without all of the effort? The classic look, of course! It’s timeless and totally gets the point across. And these days, business casual is as classic as many offices get.

This Fashionisto took great appreciation of his school colors before heading to an honors scholar meeting by wearing a Collegiate Tartan tie that is dripping with Pirate pride. When going to meetings like this, you must be professional and well put together. There is no better way to execute that rather than taking the classic route. And what else screams classic than black leather dress shoes and a Lacoste belt? Nice try finding something.

A classic minimal look can carry on for years and years to come. You don’t only have to go the dress shirt, slacks and tie route. You can wear a blazer and add a bit of spunk to your outfit. Even dazzle it up with a bowtie. That always sets one apart from the rest. So when you think classic, boring should be the furthest from your thoughts. Change that to respected, and you’ll rule your campus runway.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “When you know you have something to dress for, go with what you know. And usually what you know has some attitude and creativity to it.”
