    I've always appreciated your choice: Simple, versatile, classic, and no-brainer. I tried to start my wardrobe journey since college but always got overwhelmed by all the recommendations from the internet, ending up spending a lot of wasted money. I love how your "essentials" are actually essential, which helps beginners not overthinking and overspending on clothes imo

    As a university student, this is definitely one of the best "dressier" capsule wardrobes that I have seen. I would change out a couple of pieces to better fit my personal preferences and colouring and add a white poplin shirt and solid tie for a full suit look, but I can see myself wearing everything in this video and being able to build this wardrobe over the course of a year or two. Wonderful advice, thank you!

    I'm liking these capsule videos. Not only does it show the versatility of great basics, but I think it reminds us that simple outfits can look great. I like look no. 3 for that reason. The light grey flannel sport coat is so simple but will always look great. And the patterns on the shirt and tie show that pieces don't need to grab one's attention to be effective. Thanks, as always, Brian.

  • @rade1809

    Great looks Brian! Working in a school environment, my go to is chinos+dress shoes/boots+dress shirt(+sweater in fall/winter). If there is a school board meeting or a more formal event, I swap chinos for dress pants, crew-neck sweater for a v-neck and a tie.

    The lights grey jacket and demon shirt you’re wearing while talking to camera is an excellent match of visual texture. I didn’t see the appear of the denim shirt for a long time. Now a fine denim shirt is one of my favourite shirts. It’s easily dressed up or down.

    For the past 10 years or so I've followed several mens style/grooming channels. As I got older, I realized most of the mainstream 1m+ channels were just not for me; and I was a dedicated viewer for so long. The over-the-top loud online personalities and sponsorships that took up half a video really got to me. Not to mention the legitimately terrible fashion advice.
    I just started a new job working for the state and I've got to say; your channel and The Modest Man have been a breath of fresh air. I've been mostly a workwear kind of dude but the change in my environment called for a workplace rebrand. Thanks for all you do man. This channel provides some great content and insight.

    Business casual is my favorite dress style. There are tons of option/layer/style you can play in this range. Shirt, plain sweater and kaki or chino with dress shoes or boots in winter is what I wear everyday at the office and that's more formal than 90% of what my coworker wear. If I got a meeting just take off the knitwear and than put a nice sport jacket and you're ready to go. If I should go on field (construction site) just but heavier chino or dark jeans and you're set (with all the safety equipment of course).

    A great ensamble, I really like the pieces layering a button-up shirt with a sweater, it's versatile enough to be great for the office, a meeting, yet also not "too much" for most daily activities.

Can you pleae give outfit ideas on the much more casual business casual wardobe like in tech and creative companies where i work in and never ever worn a suit? Am I wrong think the navy chinos is redundant to the trousers of the hopsack suit?

    • @hespokestyle
      @hespokestyle  4 года назад

      You're a bit wrong. Having odd trousers, as they're called, is better for more combinations. If your pants are the same fabric as your jacket, that's called a suit. I don't work in either of those industries, so it is impossible for me to know what is acceptable or not.

    @JakeSmith-jy1kx Год назад

    My notion of casual is more casual than your notion. Especially when you got to that suit. Whoa, that would be so formal in my office and not a single person would think it was business casual. We are a no-shorts = business casual type of office. So running shoes, acid wash jeans, and a hoodie are typical. A suit would look out of place, no matter how good it looks.
