Looks for Spring 2012

Posted on: March 19th, 2012 by rpgadmin No Comments

The American man has been taught that he can wear denim anywhere, so long as said jeans are dark, unadorned, and named things like the “New Standard.” No offense to anyone who designs jeans but you probably have your going-out jeans already. This spring, add a medium-blue pair to your arsenal, to wear on Friday or Saturday. Repeat until they get even lighter, nearly disintegrating. They’ll be soft — just like the suede shoes, washed cotton shirts, and tees you’ll want to wear all season with them.

Spring 2012 looks are also about comfort and what’s ,ore comfortable than a pair of your favorite jeans.  We always check the weather when thinking about getting dressed and looking good because being comfortable means more than just one thing.  Many contributing factors make up the work “comfort” and weather is right near the top.

Shoes and boots can be worn in spring and summer but mainly shoes and sandals for hot weather.  (To be honest, I’m not a sandals wearer because I don’t like my feet and if I don’t like them I don’t anyone else wants to look at them.  Unless I’m boating or at the beach, I leave my sandals at home.)

The grey jean option. . . !

Recently, we’ve been posting some important tips on choosing the best style of jean for the spring and summer. However, we tend to look at jeans as an item you can wear all year long and have a hard time believing that you need a huge wardrobe of jeans.

Granted there is a summer jean and a winter jean but that doesn’t mean you’re limited to one or the other based on the season. Summer jeans are definitely thinner by a couple of points so wearing them in the hot weather makes sense. But I wear winter jeans in warm weather, especially at night.

Gray jeans can easily be your go-to jean this summer as the trend for this color has become popular all over Europe and in London. In most cases they’re more than a little worn and washed and you can get them in different weights so you can bring them out in the fall and winter. The beauty here is that gray goes with everything!

We have a complete jean report and you and it shows that you can easily wear almost any kind of footwear with gray jeans. I like a trendy sneaker or a carmel slip on with gray as its trendier than most things you would think to wear with jeans. You can also role up the cuffs and go on a day trip or off to the country.
