Quick Tips: Tidy/Smart Casual
Tidy casual, smart casual and business casual are loosely defined dress codes used in professional and informal circumstances. From what the internet has to offer this is what I have come up with to what they mean. You may think otherwise.
Rules and guidelines:
Dress shoes, or dressy slip-on shoes.
No trainers or skater shoes.
Dark socks to match your shoes. Please no white socks.
Suit trousers are perfect, chinos and dark slacks. Nothing baggy.
Jeans, good quality, fitted dark blue jeans. Not suitable for all occasions.
If in doubt forget about it.
No shorts, boardies or speedos please.
Wear a belt always.
Shirts, a fitted, long sleeve shirt preferably, rolled-up sleeves are ok if you like.
No t-shirts. Polo’s, maybe, it depends on the situation, avoid logos and slogans.
Ties are not needed, top button open, second button only if the venue is outside.
No loud colour’s, play it safe.
Sunglasses outside only, your just a douche if you wear sunglasses inside.
You think you're cool, everyone else thinks you're blind.
Always
· Use an Iron. There is no excuse for having a wrinkled and creased looking tea-towel that you call a shirt.
· Wear a belt. Every man should have at least 2 belts. A simple black belt to go with your black pants, and a tanned leather belt for your jeans.
· Never wear white socks. Ever. You cant go wrong with black or very, very, very dark blue socks.
