I have never been so confused regarding what to wear in my life, except that one phase after graduation.
I had finished my internship and was in the first month of my job. None of my colleagues took me seriously. My ideas were considered impractical and I was treated like a kid. My friends would suggest change your attitude, some said you need to be less vocal and more professional, but I knew it had something to do with my looks. I was in that state for months till my dad came back from the ship during the fall. And he told me that the key to catch the attention of everyone is to dress unique, even in formals. And the one word that can solve all my problems is ‘Blazer’. He brought his tablet and took me through various men’s fashion blogs while explaining how clothes play a big role in bringing the transition from boyhood to an adult life. And I was surprised to find so many stylish blazers for men in modern designs, and not just the ones like grandpa’s that I dreaded wearing.
How to Buy a Blazer?
And so started our search of blazers for men online. Here are the tips that would help you choose the right blazer.
Types - It is important to pay attention to the types of blazer. The best way to buy is keep the occasions you would be wearing it to in mind. The classic styles are the standard double-breasted blazers and the two-button blazers which can be worn to meetings and other important formal occasions. But if you have something regular in mind then best to go for casual blazers with patch pockets.
Fit - Classic or casual, blazers must always fit well. The trick is to remember never too loose, never too tight. After buttoning the blazer if you see the formation of a ‘X’ or a wrinkled dishevelled look with cuffs past your knuckles, return the blazer and ask for a size down or up.
Colour - Blazers should always be bought of a colour that compliments your stature. Gray, black and navy are safest bet and are the perfect formal colours. But brown and tan coloured blazers are the best casual options.
The Best Way to Wear your Blazer
Most people wear their blazers with a dress shirt and tie, usually to more formal events. But there are various other ways to wear blazers and look stylish too. For example, with a V-neck sweater or cardigan. You can wear your classic buttoned blazer with an oxford checkered shirt for a laid back look, or pair it with polos for a sporty look. Casual blazers for men looks great when paired with V-neck t-shirts and jeans too.
Blazers for men are the most versatile piece of clothing. Dad and me bought half a dozen blazers online from Raymond, Arrow, Van Heusen and Peter England. All delivered to our doorstep. Watching my peers, colleagues and friends awestruck with my appearance, I can’t help but feel confident in everything I do.
