    It's official. The vest has become the new blazer. You can dress it up with a shirt and tie. You can dress it down with a solid colored t-shirt. You can dress it sideways, dress it upside down-- no matter what you do with it, you can make it work. It adds a dapper touch to any outfit-- and all you need is one versatile vest in your wardrobe. For me, it's my Keanan Duffty vest from Target. I wear it every chance I get. But for those of you who need a nice vest to add to your closet, make sure it fits to a tee. An adjustable strap in the back is always helpful to give you a nice suit-like silhouette. Also, keep the color palette as simple as possible so that it goes with more stuff in your wardrobe-- but also look for subtle details that make them unique. The April 77 Transmission Vest has a snazzy zipper instead of buttons, while the texture of the Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Vest is sartorially appetizing-- but when making your in-'vest'-ment, don't go for one that is splattered with graphics or encrusted with rhinestones. You want to make heads turn towards you, not away. Check out the slideshow for some vests for you to consider.

    When In Doubt, Go For The Straight Leg Jeans!

    Boot-cut, wide-legged, relaxed fit, bell bottoms€“ the denim universe is jam-packed with styles which make choosing a pair of jeans a daunting task. If it ever becomes too jarring, go for the good ol€™ standby: straight-leg. We are beginning to see a more tailored look for men when it comes to jeans and trousers. Men shouldn€™t be wary of this cut. The trick is to choose a pair of jeans that flatter rather than cling to your body like man leggings. There are various degrees of straight legs. You can go for a more streamlined look with April 77 jeans or you can go for something a little roomy in the thigh from G-Star. Whatever you choose, be sure that you are comfortable. As a general rule of thumb, jeans should fall from the waist and straight down (hence the term, €œstraight-leg€�). You€™d be surprised how a pair of straight-legged jeans can flatter your body. Just be sure you don€™t confuse straight-leg with tapered-leg€“ unless you're going for that 90210 circa 1992 look. Click the slideshow to see more straight-leg jeans.
