Outfit #1 (2:06) features a monochromatic floral print long sleeved button up shirt, beige denim pants, and white slip on sneakers.

A floral print, when done is subdued monochromatic tones, can be subtle and unexpected. During the summer season, you can find a variety of prints, embrace the ones what will work for you. We cuffed the pant on this look, but you could easily leave them rolled down and opt to roll up your sleeves. Either way, a rolled cuff on a pant or sleeve, creates a more casual look. The slip on sneaker with no show socks is a great seasonal alternative to a boot or loafer.

Outfit #2 (6:26) pairs a printed short sleeved button up shirt with shorts and Birkenstock sandals.

Short sleeved button ups are great for Summer because they are easy to layer and come in so many great prints - from vintage aloha to modern geometric. Also, you don't have to fuss with rolling up a long sleeve shirt to achieve a cooler feel.

To hear exactly why these shorts work for so many of our male clients check out the video

When it comes to sandals, slides and flip flops are great for the pool or the beach, but Birkenstocks will take you everywhere. They are a PNW staple and we are here for it!

Outfit #3 (10:40) shows you how to utilize light weight fabrics for layering during Summer. We paired this printed shirt with a navy jacket and gray casual pants and lace up shoes.

Jackets and other layering outer pieces really complete a look. So instead of just wearing a shirt and pant everyday, try a zip up jacket, hoodie, or even a button up over a t-shirt. You will look more put together and be prepared for our unpredictable weather.

This look is great for work and all the pieces can be easily transitioned to other seasons as well.
