Men's Style Sins with Blazers

Men's Style Sins with Blazers
Few pieces in men's fashion can come close to the typical blazer
in terms of ubiquity and universality. A single blazer can
encompass an extremely wide range of styles that run the gamut
from lounge casual with sandals to office formal in a necktie.
Yet many guys have still found ways to mess up the almost idiot
proof blazer. No man should live life without one, but at the
same time no guy should be forced into any one of the
following.Statement BlazersThe last decade of men's fashion has
seen the rise of statement t shirts, but never will there come a
time when statement blazers will become the rage. In fact, the
very idea of a 'statement' piece of clothing is antithetical to
the whole concept of a blazer.Blazers ought to be uncomplicated,
understated and elegant, the reasons why they're such versatile
style pieces in the first place. When you add other things like
silkscreen prints or sewn on patches, you destroy the simplicity
that gives the blazer its power. You might be adding something
interesting to half a square foot of the blazer, yes, but you're
also destroying the jacket as a whole style piece.If you've ever
seen the classic blazer at any men's boutique before, then you
know how your own piece should look like. The solid coloring and
lack of anything explicit on the surface may seem boring at
first, but it's this same characteristic that lets you wear your
blazer ten, even twenty years down the road.Distressed
BlazersEver since the revolution of hippie and Bohemian chic,
beatup and distressed styles keep popping in and out of vogue
with men's fashion. Yet even as frays, rips and fades come and
go for t shirts and jeans, blazers remain stolidly immune to the
deconstructing tides.Theoretically speaking, adherence to
tradition is one of the basic ideas that lie at the very
foundation of every blazer. Blazers are great fashion items not
just because they keep you warm and toasty, but also because
they carry a long heritage of style with them. A blazer with
rips, fades and frays only serves to go against that heritage
and make you look like a hobo in the process.Although they might
appear boring at first, the very best blazers aren't the ones
with all sorts of details. The most prized ones that you see
displayed at fashion shows are the ones with sharp tailoring and
immaculate execution. It's skill and workmanship that makes for
an excellent blazer, not the novel and cutesy pie details that
happen to come along with it.Popped CollarsFrom a functional
perspective of men's fashion, blazers are still outerwear at the
end of the day. No matter how luxurious or exquisitely tailored
one might be, it's still meant to keep you warm first and
foremost, and there's really no problem when you use it as such.
What's abhorrent, however, is when you use the blazer as
outerwear too much, forgetting that it's part of a formal or
semi-formal outfit as well.There is a purpose to the big lapels
you will find on every jacket. When you pop them up, they serve
to protect your neck and nape area from chilly winds, making for
some very functional fashion. Once you step indoors, though,
it's time to put those things back down. Your blazer is a
blazer, and you should never leave the lapels popped up any
longer than is necessary, even if you're aspiring to create that
frat boy look.Blazers require more than merely a neutral shirt
and a nice necktie to make them work for you. Much thought
should also be given to how you pick out a blazer to work with
the rest of your wardrobe as a style piece. www.suitswhere.com
