Match Your Look to Your Event: Finance Edition

By

When you work in finance, your day doesn’t end at 5:00, and you need menswear that can keep up. From client dinners to weekend panels, your style should help you feel confident for every meeting on your calendar. To start building your wardrobe, opt for staples that are breathable, versatile, and built to handle everything from boardroom presentations to one-on-one meetings with members of your team.

 Lunch Meetings with Important Clients

It’s Monday morning, and you’re preparing to host a lunch meeting with your biggest client. You want an outfit that says I’m meticulous and polished but not overdressed. When you’re there to build rapport, not pitch a deal, you need a look of quiet confidence.

Navy Blue Blazer

You can never go wrong with a classic navy blue blazer over a crisp button down shirt. Pair it with a pair of classic chino pants and a pair of leather loafers.

This look embodies sophistication with a perfect balance of timeless style. It’s an outfit that says, “I’m sharp, I’m prepared, and I have everything under control.”

 Red-Eye Flight, Morning Meeting

When you’re running on two espresso shots and pure drive, you need a composed transitional outfit that can take you from one time zone to another in comfort and style. Wrinkle-resistant pants mean you’ll be stress-free and ready to walk off the plane and get to work.

Wear a pair of 5 pocket pants on travel days to avoid discomfort on a cross-country flight. With a trusty button down on top, you’ll still look great if you need to quickly log onto a video call or go straight to a strategy meeting with your team.

Your goal is to prioritize styles that say, “I may not have slept much, but you can’t even tell.”

 Happy Hour with the Team

When you want to invite the team to happy hour, you need a laid-back yet elevated look. Being out of the office doesn’t mean you’re off your game. It’s just a chance to show your team a more casual side of you.


One of your favorite no tuck shirts is an excellent choice for a more casual setting. Even if your mind is always occupied with the next goal, it’s great to take time to connect with your team in a fresh setting where everyone can kick back and feel comfortable.

It’s even better when you can do it in a look that says, “I’m approachable, but I still mean business.”

The Best Menswear Patterns for Winter and Spring

  Everyone knows how to prepare for the transition from fall to winter, but what about the change from winter to spring? This seasonal shift can be, for lack of a better word, awkward. There’s not necessarily a go-to trend that everyone knows to get through this unpredictable period when it’s getting warmer but it’s still not quite warm. Even a shortway through winter, you’re already looking ahead to the spring. By the time the new season does come around, the weather forecast isn’t quite as bright and warm enough to enjoy a round of golf or an afternoon downtown in shorts and a t-shirt. However, getting in the right mindset for that transitional period is possible, and it can start with something as simple as wearing more patterned dress shirts for men . Prints and patterns liven up the look of any outfit. Even subtle changes to the standard white or blue collared shirt can breathe new life into your closet toward the end of winter and help you feel ready to embrace the spring. C...

  The ink of a ballpoint pen, Bing Crosby in technicolor, and the color of your favorite collared shirt make you realize just how much you love a great blue. It’s inviting but feels cool, masculine yet eye-catching. That’s especially true for a color like cornflower blue. This light shade of blue may be named after a flower, but it’s a color every man should have in his closet, even if you don’t typically wear floral patterns. Vintage fits are back in style, and so is color. Yet, jumping right into wearing bolder colors when you’re used to neutrals can feel like a big change. If you aren’t quite ready for an orchid purple or even an olive green, cornflower blue is an easy-going staple color for your menswear rotation. Embracing new colors this year might even help you gain some new perspective on your wardrobe. Collared Shirt An Ideal Winter-to-Spring Transition Color You probably don’t swap all your clothes from winter to spring at once. You want to keep wearing your go-to sty...
