Men’s Fashion: Upgrade Your Street Style Wardrobe

The most common misconception about street style is that it’s easily acheivable. Even if it seems that this style doesn’t need much forethought, the truth is that putting together a strong outfit – streetwear or no – calls for smart judgement. Owning a solid selection of staples that you can build upon as your wardrobe grows is essential if you want to play the street style game.

Cool T-shirt

As fashion rules about what’s considered workwear or party outfits constantly change, the T-shirt has emerged as a comfortable, versatile piece that easily matches multiple styles.

When it comes to street style, tees are a big YES. Stylists recommended a more relaxed version that goes under the belt for a more comfortable, yet chic appearance. Avoid tucking the T-shirt in, this is only allowed for girls.

When combined with sweatpants, better opt for a plain or minimal print tee, while you can go crazy with the prints if you are wearing it with skinny (or any other kind) of jeans. Brands like Champion, Converse, Majestic Athletics and others are devoted to designing T-shirts you can wear everywhere, not just for sleeping or going to the gym. Among the range of majestic products, opt for a t-shirt that is 100 % cotton which is sure to look and feel amazing on your body.

A cool t-shirt is a basic piece for layering. In the warm days, just tie your hoodie or jumper around your waist or across your chest and you are good to go. When it’s colder, combine it with a cropped jacket, parka, or even a raincoat.

Put on your favourite tee, then plaid shirt, then a denim jacket and you are the ultimate streetwear king. However, be careful not to combine all this with sweatpants (grey might be considered) and go from fashion win to total fashion failure.

The Hoodie Is a Must

The hoodie is to streetwear what choreography is to Beyonce. The hoodie can be your go-to stylish piece to keep you warm during the cold months. If you choose a simple style, you can always layer it with other pieces of outerwear like a leather jacket to make it appear more fashionable.

A zip-up hoodie is more of a slim-fitting style option, and a good choice if you want to show your cool tee underneath. A pullover hoodie is a more loose and comfortable option that can easily be combined with your favourite sweatpants and white sneakers: a total of ten out of ten street style combination.

A Converse hoodie combined with a bomber jacket. can draw some attention and quite a few looks from people on the street. If you want to go for a more contemporary, urban look, you can find a nice fit among the majestic products with high quality too. The majestic apparel is designed with street style in mind and it is very popular among trendsetters.

Try combining a hoodie underneath a black or brown coat on your next chilly Sunday for a casually cool look. Just remember to finish the outfit off with other relaxed pieces, such as loose-fit pants and sneakers.

If you are wearing jeans, instead of sneakers, you can complete the look with a pair of big, exclusive boots. Regardless of the colour or the print of the hoodie, black boots are the safest option.

College Jacket

It may remind you of your glory days in high school when you used to play baseball, but the varsity jacket we all refer to as college jacket is timeless. A black model with white banded collar and cuffs makes any look effortlessly cool. Fashion stylists agree that you can wear a college jacket even in your thirties (why not in your forties) as long as you style it perfectly.

They’re surprisingly versatile: you can style them with both jeans and sweatpants. Opt for skinny ripped jeans and a simple T-shirt for a winning street style combination. You can button it up or wear it unbuttoned, or just toss it over the shoulders in the warm days.

When you go for a sporty look, combine it with white classic sneakers, black trousers and simple one-coloured hoodie. If you want to keep it chic, choose black jeans and a striking T-Shirt with a big print. If you are going for a more dressed up look, replace the sneakers with brown boots. However, be careful not to add too many colours. Streetstyle is meant to appear effortless, yet cool.

Sweatpants

Some days, take it easy and give your jeans and chinos a rest. With this style, you pull off wearing some cotton fleece against your legs and still look hip. Sweatpants are not just sportswear and loungewear anymore, you can proudly take them on a walk to your favourite coffee place or the movies. Sweatpants are trending as a status symbol in the certain fashion circle, and even world-famous designers like Alexander Wang are now offering luxe versions that have nothing to do with the traditional leisurewear we once used to know.

To successfully implement them into your street style, opt for a simple grey or black model that you can wear everywhere and with everything. Instead of white sneakers that are usually everyone’s first choice, wear black ones instead. Black sweats combined with black sneakers can add a sophisticated note. You can throw almost every jacket on and you are good to go.

With all that in mind, you are ready to show off your streetwear outfit that makes heads turn.
