The onset of springtime usually finds most Fashionistos and Fashionistas filling their closets with bright solids, bold stripes and flirty floral prints. We oftentimes shove our simpler frocks into the drawers to shed our winter layers. However, we should not discount the versatility of nude shades, which plays on the “desert camel” look. Nude is appropriate year-round color and a great option that can be livened up with our florals and stripes. This is especially true for men, who sometimes shy away from the dramatic trends of spring and summer. So, if attention-grabbing colors aren’t your style, go for a more subtle spring look with nudes. Nude is a great median between day and night and casual and formal.
This Fashionisto paired his nude henley with dark cuffed jeans and a plaid scarf for a more polished, yet relaxed daytime look. However, for a date night approach, he could un-cuff his jeans and swap his hat and scarf for a nice blazer.
This look does not just apply to men, though. Anyone wanting to wear nude should use it as a baseline piece. Pairing it with bright accessories, especially for spring will liven up the outfit. Try bright pumps or a chunky colored necklace as accents. Men should look to wear dark jeans as a contrast to the lighter nude shade. Scarves, hats, and even shoes can off play the simplicity of the look.
