Men’s fashion in summer tends to consist of gym clothes or a simple tee and shorts, so I was surprised when I found this sophisticated Fashionisto. He shows jocks everywhere how to wear the simple tee and shorts look. Most men can’t tell the difference between brands but his knowledge blew me away. With men’s fashion a little bit of effort (like this Fashionsito’s attention to detail) goes a long way.

College Fashionista: Where are your favorite places to shop?
Shane Scott: I buy a lot of my shoes from Zappos and shop mostly at Urban Outfitters and J.Crew. For suits and nicer clothes I usually wear Brooks Brothers.
CF: So do you like to shop online or prefer browsing in stores?
SS: Shopping online, I don’t have much patience for trying on clothes.
CF: What role does fashion play in your life?
SS: Honestly, not much. I wear what I feel like for the day. I stay casual for classes but when I dress up I try and look nice I guess. I do love a nice suit though.
CF: What is your favorite items for summer?
SS: My Ray-Ban Wayfarers and Sperry Top-Siders are definitely what I wear the most.
How To: To get this Fashionisto’s vibe start with a pair of khaki shorts rolled up at the hem. Add a striped or printed graphic tee, like this one from Urban Outfitters and throw on a heather gray hoodie. Sperries and black Ray-Ban Wayfarers finish off this effortlessly casual look.
