OUTFIT OF THE DAY #119
How do our clothes look on a “non-model”?
Looks from my daily life here at Y.Chroma HQ in Lisbon in hopes they inspire you.
A casual chic summer look
Lads, today's look is one of those combinations that doesn't ask too much of you, and delivers more than you'd expect.
British Green French Linen Henley on top, Obsidian Gray Skyline Pant on the bottom. That's it. And it works because both pieces know exactly what they're doing.
The linen henley is fresh, breathable, and comfortable all day - this time of year it's the first thing I reach for. British Green in linen has a warmth to it that you don't get in other fabrics. It reads almost organic, like the color belongs somewhere out in the world rather than on a rack. I love pairing British Green with different colors, but today I wanted something cooler underneath, and Obsidian Gray is exactly that. It grounds the whole look without competing with the green.
The Skyline Pant is a satin weave, so you'll notice the subtle sheen when the light hits it. It's not loud. It's just right. That's what Italian satin does.
Add a pair of loafers and you're done. Simple, casual, dressy enough for anywhere the summer day takes you.
