Bangkok--26 May--Verve
Fashion is today not only for women to enjoy: men can also jazz up themselves by mixing and matching their everyday clothes to express their unique style and say who they are.
‘Boardroom to Boardwalk’ is an up-and-coming trend adopted by men to render a trendy look onto their workwear, balancing the colors of shirt and pants with light and dark shades to accentuate the top and lower parts of the body and adding stylish touch with the right jacket and accessories like necktie, headgear, belt, glasses, wristwatch, and shoes.
Miss Atiporn Ekprasidthikul, Dockers? San Francisco Brand Manager at Diethelm Limited, gave a tip saying that office guys who begin to take ‘Boardroom to Boardwalk’ approach should start off with their favorite style of clothing — they should figure out if they like dress shirt or polo shirt better, what kind of accessories they love, and whether they prefer casual to dress shoes. Another important thing to consider is the pants to go with. Key things to consider when choosing to buy a pair of pants includes the fits, fabric used, and colors because today’s office life is dynamic and pants should offer men both wearing comfort and freedom of movement. In addition, the fabric should be durable and stays in shape, enhanced with color and shade that look up-to-date and are versatile enough for both business and after hours.
Office Men on the Move
For office guys who love to be and spend most of their working hours on the move from one site visit or an external meeting to another and the like, pairing a striped white shirt with pale pink pants is worth a try, especially when complemented by a dark blue carnigan, a pair of casual shoes, and a shoulder briefcase to achieve the look of increased confidence and preparedness for all journeys.
Executive Look
A blue striped shirt or a plain white shirt gets along perfectly with pants of any earth-tone color from khaki to light brown or beige. Keep a tapered black or dark blue necktie loosely tied. Choose brown color for dress shoes and leather-band wristwatch and a dark color for leather briefcase. With this combination, you can be confident and ready for meetings throughout the day.
Indie Gent
Liveliness in a casual fashion can be expressed with the layered look of a white v-neck tee shirt and a dark blue sweater matched to light yellow pants, hinting optimism and fresh attitude that can also make people around you feel good. Add the feel of an indie guy with a pair of pointy-toed shoes and get a little accessorized with a brass necklace, a plain silver ring, or a sporty wristwatch.
Laid-back IT Guy
Creating a laid-back yet enjoyable ambience for work is easy. Be clad in a short-sleeve shirt with a round-neck tee layered underneath, or opt for a striped white shirt with the sleeves folded. Mix these with red straight-leg pants, which represent determination and readiness to take on challenges in work, along with a pair of white canvas shoes and a dark leather belt. Props like a notebook or a sleek mobile phone will turn you into a trendy gadget guy.
Trendy Sportsman
On days when you feel the need for a relief from work pressure, create a refreshing sense of yourself right from the morning. Choose a colorful round-neck tee or polo shirt to be paired with aqua green pants — a look that winds down stress both for you and your colleagues. Adding to this active look, get a sports bag and your favorite cap to keep yourself ready for an evening workout.
Office Weekender
Turn any weekday into a Friday with a horizontal-stripe polo shirt under a short-sleeve shirt along with deep blue pants. A happy day keeps you calm and focused on work without stress, so create a getaway feel right in your workplace by having at hand a weekend bag plus a pocket book or a portable music player. In addition to creating the ambience in your office, you’re also ready to take off for a real weekend.
