Men’s Summer Style 2013: $150 Wardrobe

May 15, 2013

PicMonkey Collage

Today I’m featuring a guest post talking about men’s style for this summer. Great styles for your boyfriend, husband, friend or a few of my readers who are guys! Check it out:

It’s easy to blow the budget when refreshing your wardrobe for summer. If you want to save your cash for afternoons in beer gardens and summer holidays abroad, there are ways to get a whole new summer wardrobe without breaking the bank.

Supermarkets are a great place to find the latest fashions at bargain prices, with the George clothing collections available either in store or online at George at ASDA. Low supermarket prices mean that you can pick up all you need to see you through summer in style, for under $150. Make sure that you pick up these capsule wardrobe essentials.

Chino Shorts

Chino Shorts

As the big fashion story of the summer, chino shorts are everywhere. Pick up your pair of chino shorts in a choice of colors from George for just $15. Muted shades are replacing last year’s brights, so choose from greens, blues, grays and browns, for your finger on the fashion pulse.

Graphic Tees

Graphic T

Graphic tees are fantastically versatile, as they’ll take you from day to night with ease. As good for the bar as they are for the beach, graphic print tees are ideal for refreshing a summer wardrobe, and will take up next to no room in your suitcase if you’re heading off on your jollies.

You’ll find a wide selection of graphic tees at ASDA George for just $8 each, including the latest photo print styles.

Boat Shoes

Boat Shoes

The boat shoe is the style of the season for men, and this classic shoe looks great with chino shorts and a tee or a shirt. Pick up a pair of leather boat shoes at ASDA George for just $40, to see you all the way through to next winter with your best fashion foot forward.

The boat shoe is also as good for casual wear as it is for eveningwear – choose from navy and brown pairs for the ultimate versatile footwear buy.

Grandad Shirts

Grandad shirt

Forget the polo shirt this summer, it’s all about the grandad shirt. Another versatile day to night classic, a few grandad tops in your summer capsule wardrobe will add smart/casual style to every occasion.

Grandad shirts are available in a variety of muted colors at ASDA George for just $12 each.

Colored Chinos

Is anyone still wearing jeans? The arrival of the chino on the fashion scene has been a welcome relief for those sick of feeling hot and sweating in jeans during the summer months.

Chinos are a cool, comfortable option for everything from workwear to eveningwear. Simply add a shirt or a grandad tee for a perfect summer 2013 smart/casual look.

100 percent cotton chinos are light and airy, perfect for summer, and can be found for just $20 a pair at ASDA George.

 

So for a grand total of $95, you can have a whole new summer capsule wardrobe full of the latest trends at George at ASDA. With plenty of change left from a $150 new wardrobe budget, you’ll be able to treat yourself to a day out at the seaside or an afternoon in the beer garden to show off your new togs!

    My boyfriend has been bugging me to do a post about men’s fashion (since he thinks he needs help), but now I can just guide him towards this one 😛

      LOL! My boyfriend does not allow me to help him. He really has his own style though and I love it, so why change it I guess 😉 I would like him to try the colored chinos and boat shoes though! He says absolutely NOT 😉

    This is so great! I’ve helped every boyfriend I’ve had with their “fashion” choices…luckily none of them have been too helpless–it’s funny, once you get them into it, they start to LOVE it.

#Ad Having battled oily skin for years, the heat a #Ad Having battled oily skin for years, the heat and humidity that comes along with summer makes it even tougher to battle breakouts. It's also a struggle to find the right moisturizer that keeps my skin healthy, balanced and glowing all while reducing irritation. This summer has been especially hard as I've struggled with "maskne"! That's why I'm beyond excited to tell you about the Clarifying Oil-Free Water Gel Moisturizer from @muradskincare! This moisturizer is a game-changer for someone like me with acne-prone, oily skin. This oil-free moisturizer helps minimize impurities while balancing your skin's microbiome for healthier-looking skin. Since using this, my skin is clearer and healthier looking! I have battled so many breakouts around my chin and on my cheeks this summer - but am so relieved to be seeing results and seeing clearer skin while also getting the crucial hydration I need. Formulated with hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, ginger root, and Korean red pine extract, this moisturizer will hydrate, balance, and improve the look of your skin as well no matter your skin type or needs! I am telling you, you do not want to pass up adding this product to your routine! It is available at @ulta, @sephora and Murad.com. I am a long time user and lover of Murad products but have to say, this is one of my all-time favorites. Have you tried their new Clarifying Oil-Free Gel Moisturizer? #ulta #sephora #MuradSkincare #MuradPartner

It’s been awhile and A LOT has happened in our w It’s been awhile and A LOT has happened in our world since I last posted to my feed. There is a lot I want to say and I will be posting a lot more soon, but first & foremost...

Black Lives Matter.

I wish I had posted about this in my feed sooner, but I honestly didn’t know what to say or how to say it. I spent way too long overthinking it versus just doing it. I know that’s not an excuse, and I know I have to do better. I’ve been spending a lot of time reflecting and educating myself as well as finding ways to help and be proactive. I am committing myself to do more and do better. I know it’s not enough and I’m not sure it will ever be enough... but I will never stop trying. 

The most important thing I learned is that my silence in the past was unacceptable and a huge part of the problem. I thought not knowing what to say and worrying about saying the wrong thing meant it was ok to be silent. It WAS NOT and IS NOT ok.

I have so much more to learn and to do, but one thing is for sure... I will no longer be silent. I will continue to keep the anti-racism resources link in my bio - as it has been a great resource for me and know it has been for many others. Again, I’m not excusing myself for not posting in my feed sooner but I will continue to share and hope to keep the momentum going 🖤 Black Lives Matter 🖤
Hey friends! How are you?! We made it through anot Hey friends! How are you?! We made it through another *very unusual* & crazy/scary week. I hope you are staying safe & well!

Yesterday we took Emma @emmaminiaussie to the vet for her annual vet check up. It was her first appointment at a new vet since our move, and we had to let her go in alone. My anxiety has been off the charts lately, as I’m sure it has been for many of you, and heightened even more by this. Emma is truly our child, our daughter, and I am always anxious wanting to ensure she’s happy and doing well.
.
Sitting outside in the car waiting for the call from our new vet was difficult, but I’m so happy to report her health at almost 8 years old is wonderful! She’s thriving and it makes my heart so happy. Another great reminder during these times to be thankful for what matters most - your health and your loved ones’ health (including your fur babies 🐶). So with another long caption today just wishing health and safety to all of you right now! And another thank you to essential workers on the frontlines ❤️🙏🏻 #emmatheminiaussie #loveconquersall #stayhealthy
Hello Instagram family… it’s been awhile. I ha Hello Instagram family… it’s been awhile. I have not posted in my feed since February… and so this is going to be a long one since life as we know it has completely changed over the past month. 
I decided I needed a mental break from Instagram - not all social media - just Instagram. I have been unmotivated to post on this particular platform and was constantly posting old photos/photoshoots just to have something to post. So I took a break to refresh. 
Well, as you know, things started to escalate pretty quickly with COVID-19. I was just about ready to start posting again and BOOM. Just like that, everything in our world changed. It didn’t feel right to post my latest outfit at that moment… 
Things are still escalating, but I’m back here today because I’m longing for connection more than ever and because I want to say THANK you to so many people. 
Things are scary right now. They are uncertain and unfathomable. We are all trying to adapt to a new normal. I don’t have much to add to what others have been saying, but I do want to say I’m thinking of and praying for everyone, especially those directly affected by the pandemic. 
I also want to say thank you to everyone putting their lives at risk to help our country and our world during this time. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to healthcare workers, delivery drivers, grocery store workers, pharmacy/drugstore workers, app-based gig workers out in the field, restaurants who are feeding healthcare workers and feeding children lunches, teachers going above and beyond, to those helping get their parents, grandparents, friends, neighbors and others who are vulnerable the essentials they need to get through this. You are all HEROES and I can never express enough gratitude for what you are doing. 
I don’t have much else to say, but I hope to continue to connect with you all again on this platform. THANK YOU to everyone who is putting an effort into making a difference during this pandemic. Staying home means so much right now if you are able to! We will get through this together if we work together. Stay safe, stay well, and be kind ❤️ #stayhome #besafe #thankyou
Happy Valentine’s Day my love ❤️❤️❤️ Happy Valentine’s Day my love ❤️❤️❤️ love you with all I am 💕💕💕#valentinesday2020 #myhusband #myvalentine
