Maybe you just got out of school and need to start wearing something other than a sweatshirt. Maybe you made a New Year's resolution to start paying a little more attention to how you look... Whatever your reasons, beginnings are always difficult. Navigating the maze of fashion editorials and online advice centers dedicated to all things men's is often a difficult task, even for veterans, let alone newcomers. Where to even start? What to buy first?
That's why we're back with the Alain Delon Magazine to help you. We've prepared a recipe for you consisting of five simple ingredients that together create the perfect foundation for any wardrobe. Because, as with food, so with dressing, quality ingredients are the foundation.
Shirt
Simply put, a piece of clothing that you can take to a prom or to the park with the kids and you won't look like you've lost your way. You don't have to worry about whether you're wearing the right shade or too many patterns, it's simply something that goes with literally everything.
And most importantly, there is no man who would look bad in a white shirt. The only thing that white color cannot solve for you is fit. It should not be so tight that the buttons become a general hazard, and at the same time, your colleague should not even be able to fit into it. This article will also advise you on the right shirt size. And most importantly, gentlemen, once and for all, a white shirt never sticks out of your pants!
Suit
You'll almost certainly need to pull out your suit in a hot July as well as a freezing December. Natural wool keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. So if you really want to invest in just one suit, wool is the way to go. You'll thank us after that outdoor wedding party your cousin desperately wanted.
Jeans
It's true that we all have at least one pair of jeans in our closet. However, owning the right ones is the hardest thing to get right when creating a wardrobe staple. To make them work for as many occasions as possible, they shouldn't be too skinny, too loose, too pale, or too dark. You need to find a happy medium that will allow you to pull them out in the morning for work or on a date night. That's why navy blue without any frayed spots or holes is ideal. Less is more!
Blue jacket
Welcome the most versatile piece in your wardrobe, the blue blazer. Want to look elegant? Just add a shirt and tie. Want to look casual? Pair it with a white T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers. The solid navy fabric is a great base for combining your other items, and the blazer can serve as the cornerstone of your entire wardrobe.
Moreover, you can cleverly hide your wallet, keys and phone in it, which will get rid of the classic "irresistible" look with stuffed front pockets on your pants.
V-neck sweater
So, you have almost everything, but what if it starts to get a little cold? Similar to other key pieces, the best sweater is also the simplest one, a V-neck. You wear it because it goes well under both a jacket and a jacket. It's similar to a white shirt, an ageless classic. Moreover, it will always look elegant when combined with a shirt. If you're a little worried about the mix of colors, red or navy blue is the way to go. There's only one rule, don't mix it with a jacket! If you're going somewhere where you want to look a little more smart than casual, a sweater with a shirt is not enough.
