Colorblock for Men: Take 2!

Hey fellas...sorry about the post being late but better late than never right? This week we're posting about color block and giving you  few ideas on how to incorporate it in your wardrobe. We've posted about this subject matter before [LINK 1LINK 2] , but now we're doing a bit of a refresher course.With that being said...let's hop into today's post! 

If you look at the picture to the left you'll notice color blocking for men in a casual sense. These men on the runway have quite bright colors on but you don't have to really do the exact same. Start with something subtle...for instance:

Do this Soft Mustard Yellow V-Neck with these Blue Chino Pants...cuff them... then for shoes you can do something like these Light Brown Sperry's and a nice watch or even this Green Sailor Knot Bracelet for more of a color blocking effect. There you have it...a simple/casual, color- blocking outfit! 
Okay fellas....look to the right.. I know you're thinking "what are we supposed to be looking at?". This black and white picture is for color blocking inspiration! Color block can be achieved with simple, neutral colors like black, white, and gray! For example:
Start with these Black Chino Shorts and pair it with a plain, Grey v-neck. Then for shoes you throw on a pair of these White Sneakers. To complete the look go with this Black G-Shock Watch and you're all set! 


Moving on to the last look....a brighter, dressy-casual color block look. 


Here we have stylist Brad Goreski in a great color block look that we really love!! He paired a royal blue blazer with a pink button up and yellow pants...then he tied it all together with a black belt/accessories. 

To get a look similar to Brad's, start with this Brown Tweed Modern Cut Blazer and pair this Red/Coral Solid Dress Shirt underneath and then do this pair of Mustard/Yellow Pants. Tie the outfit all together with brown meaning brown belt, oxford shoes, and watch!


Well fellas...that's all we have for today. If there's any questions or comments you may have, feel free to leave them, we love feedback!
