What is smart casual?
In short, “smart casual” attire for men balances formal visual cues with more casual colors or silhouettes, resulting in a look that’s versatile enough for beach weddings, business lunches, or a night on the town. It’s a surefire way to make sure you're never under or over dressed, no matter where the day takes you.
How do you put together a smart casual look?
To achieve a smart casual look, it's all about mixing formal pieces with more relaxed attire. Reach for blazers with less structure, and pair a button down shirt with dark wash jeans, linen trousers or chinos instead of more formal slacks. For summer weddings and occasions, you can match dress pants with a more relaxed camp collar shirt and a lightweight blazer for a breezy warm weather fit. Sometimes a few simple tweaks is all it takes. For instance, undo the top button of your Oxford shirt and roll up the sleeves, or swap out your dress shoes for some loafers. It’s a style that encourages creativity, so have fun with it. For more tips on how to nail smart casual style, check out our Journal.
