WHAT TO WEAR: Date Night

A date night is a beautiful thing. Reservations are made, tables are set and candles are lit. The night finally begins at the arrival of the restaurant of your choice. Don’t get me wrong, ice cream dates and walks in the park are always enjoyable, but it’s nice to get dressed up every once in a while. For those men who are dying to take their ladies out but have no clue what to wear, this dapper Fashionisto has some major style that I can’t wait to discuss.

Nothing looks classier on a man than a suit, am I right? Justin Timberlake’s song “Suit & Tie” has been running through my head this entire time! Taking that song into consideration, this Fashionisto brings life to the lyrics, “all pressed up in black and white.” He is sporting a classic pinstripe charcoal gray suit with a black and white striped button-down underneath.

To create an extra flair, this Fashionisto added a woven silk tie with a navy and silver windowpane pattern. By choosing a tie within the same color palate as his suit, he played it safe while keeping it classy. I was so happy to see that he wore a pocket square in his left breast pocket! According to GQ, “The pocket square is the single most indispensable tool for defining a man of style these days.” It’s such a small accessory, but a little goes a long way!

In addition to his smart decision to sport a hankie, this Fashionisto chose a dashing watch that truly complements his outfit. Its black face and rose gold band add such a clean masculinity to this ensemble. Let’s not forget the shoes! Black oxfords pair with just about any suit.

One Simple Change: Not feeling a date night? Remove the suit jacket and you’re left with a more relaxed, yet professional look for your internship.
