Accessories For Men: What To Wear And How

From top to bottom, both men and women deserve to look their best. Women tend to have a vast list of options for accessories, while men may have a harder time finding sensible accessories. Just because you’re a man doesn’t mean you have to feel limited in the accessories you can wear. Whether you need an outfit for the office or something more casual, we have compiled a list of ideas to help you incorporate accessories into your daily wardrobe.

 

Watches

Watches are often a fashion statement as well as a practical piece that tells time. Many people have enjoyed the use of smart watches lately. There are several different brands, but probably one of the top selling smart watch brands is Apple. They have a huge selection of watch bands to fit your style, and they are just coming out with the new Apple watch series 6 this fall. If you don’t care to track your fitness and have ongoing notifications on your wrist, go for a normal watch. There is a wide range of watches to choose from like the world famous Rolex, but for more affordable brands there are options like Hugo Boss, Timex, and MVMT. Look for something sleek for the office, and something simple to wear during casual settings. 

 

Sunglasses

Again, this accessory has practical uses but can also show your personality. There are a variety of styles to choose from when it comes to sunglasses. Wayfarer sunglasses are an easily recognizable style. If you want a classic look, go for some aviators which will always make you look good. If you are participating in physical activities, wear a sporty looking pair. There are a lot of brands to choose from either in stores or online. Oakley sunglasses are always a quality brand, they even have the option of prescription sunglasses if you also wear glasses. 

 

Hats

Hats may not be appropriate in the work space, but wearing hats in casual or even formal settings also allow you to express your personality. If you are attending a formal dinner, consider trying on a classic fedora or a stylish trilby. Styles such as a top hat or bowler hat are suited for only the most formal occasions such as weddings. Newsboy or flat caps are great for casual settings and usually won’t ruin your styled hair after wearing it. Bucket hats have come back in style in recent years too, and those come in a variety of materials such as denim or tweed and can go with an urban looking outfit. Lastly, a Panama or boater hat are perfect for a day at the beach and are made of more breathable material. The options are limitless, you just have to know what to look for and get the courage to try on a hat if you’ve never considered wearing one.

 

Wear your tie with style for that smart confident look

Ties and tie clips

These accessories are limited to business wear and formal occasions, but nonetheless ties allow you to stand out and come in many different materials. Along with the classic black tie, you can find colorful ties that are patterned but not too busy. The number one thing is to look for ties that compliment your suits. If you want to fill an entire tie rack in your closet, by all means buy all the ties you ever wanted. Sometimes pocket squares come with ties too, which adds a nice touch to any suit. While you’re at it, find some nice tie clips. They usually come in silver or gold, but they help complete a look while keeping your tie in place. These also come in different styles, so you don’t have to feel limited by boring tie clips. The little details do matter when you purchase accessories.

 

Scarves

With winter coming soon, scarves are also a great accessory for men. They keep you warm and add a bit of color to those cold, dreary days. Cotton scarves are a good choice if you want breathability. Cashmere scarves are a bit more pricey, but they are a lovely accessory that goes with almost any coat you wear. Knitted scarves are a great choice for those brisk, snowy mornings. If you want a cowl scarf they are nice too, because they stay right where you want it which means you don’t have to fuss all the time trying to readjust your scarf.
