Casual outfits for the long weekend
Fresh ways with the linier pattern that everyone looks good in.
FOR WELL-DESERVED DAYS OFF IN THE SUN
Another bank holiday is almost upon us. Though we can’t guarantee good weather, we can ensure you’ll be well-dressed for whatever you’ve got going on. Bank holidays are a great excuse to update your wardrobe with key pieces that will take you beyond the long weekend. See below for this month’s BH outfit inspiration.
Smart casual affairs
If the weather’s warmed up but you want to stay looking sharp, a smart pair of shorts is the way to go. Cut from lightweight linen that’ll keep you cool in the heat, our matte linen shorts are a great warm-weather alternative to tailored trousers. Though they’re cut to a slim fit, the side adjusters allow for the waistband to be altered slightly, great if you prefer a tighter or looser fit.
The versatility of these shorts means that you can wear them with anything from t-shirts and Cubans, to Oxfords and linen shorts if you need a bit more refinement. Round things off with a pair of velvet loafers, crafted from the finest Italian suede.
Daytime strolls
If you’re after something a bit more casual, invest in a pair of worker chinos. The most relaxed of all of our chino styles, the worker chino offers a sleek silhouette but all of the comfort of a casual trouser. With an elasticated waistband and a little bit more room in the seat, you’ll feel put together without any restrictions. As for your top half, a polo shirt is always a good idea, especially if it’s crafted from a soft linen blend – we’ve done away with the buttons to ease it up a bit. Finish off with a solid pair of tonal trainers to amp up the laid-back vibe.
Pub or park
Tonal outfits are trending, particularly in neutral, warmer tones. If the sun does decide to show up for more than 5 minutes, head-to-toe linen in the way to go. A pair of linen joggers are best investment you’ll make this summer – naturally textured, the cross hatching adds depth to the fabric and helps them stand out against a smooth oatmeal t-shirt. Though they’re the most casual trouser from our range, the pleating and tapered leg still offer a level of smart that can see you through picnics in the park or meet ups with friends. Finish off with a sparkling pair of white leather trainers – just mind the grass stains.
