This young man walks the SoHo streets casually. He has a simple outfit that works very well for the downtown scene. His straight leg jeans, with a few rips, are cuffed, showing off his black military boots. A simple white, scoop neck t-shirt is a crisp, yet casual item. The faded brown cardigan helps continue the laid-back motif, and helps to keep him warm. The straw trilby hat is a nice finishing touch.
This guy has a great sense of style. His Carolyn Massey two toned blazer is awesome. The top two-thirds of the blazer is a grey herringbone, but the bottom third has been dyed blue. His deep v cardigan leaves room for his white polo collar, which matches the pattern on the cardigan. His straight leg blue jeans are cuffed at the bottom, showing off his worn brown leather boots.
Smart Casual is a great style both for the office and on the streets. This young man pairs a tan plaid sport coat with creased, slim fitting, grey slacks. The brown side buckle shoes are an accent, as well as a compliment to the sport coat.
The pink, french cuff, cutaway collar shirt is a great accent. The pink color is bright and noticeable, but ties in well with the tan sport coat. The navy blue tie, with a windsor knot, narrows the neck and draws a powerful line down the center of the chest.
It is amazing how something as small as a pocket square can help tie together an entire outfit. Just take a look at this man.
This is a great example of casual dress attire. This gentleman sports a straw trilby hat tilted back on his head, and a navy, deep v cardigan over a lightly checked, white shirt. His pants are straight leg khakis, complimented by a charcoal pair of docksiders.
The red pinstripes on the trim of his cardigan are a great detail. He does a great job carrying the navy throughout the outfit, on his hat band, tie and cardigan. The rolled up sleeves with the shirt cuffs out is definitely a nice touch.

A purple belt, with a yellow stripe adds a small, yet noticeable accent. The outfit is finished with an elegant, yet airy, pair of leather sandals. Now who says you can't be refined in a pair of shorts?
