I know in this recent post I briefly touched upon men, the color pink, and how to slowly incorporate it into your wardrobe. I had a guy reach out and ask a more specific question, so I will go into it a bit deeper. His question was:
What is your take on men in pink and purple shirts? And what type of pants are best to pair with it?
I think purple and pink are great for guys. Some men shy away from the colors because they find them to be too feminine or they are unsure how to pair them. While I approve of the colors, there are some definite dos and don’ts.
Do:
– wear it with a subtle colored pant
– select a more tailored fit
– try to pick a shade that goes best with your skin tone.
Don’t:
– wear a neon pink shirt (unless it’s to a festival)
– wear pink and purple at the same time (unless they are together in a pattern)
So in terms of how to work them into your wardrobe, here are my favorite options for purple and pink shirts. Click any image to be taken directly to the item.
The Pale Pink Polo
Something about a pink polo just reminds me of a refined guy who may or may not play golf or tennis, but who is confident.
Pant suggestions:
The Pink Oxford
This is a great look for the spring and summer. Wear it with the sleeves rolled up for a more laid back, casual look.
Pant suggestions:
The Pink Patterned Button Down
This is a way to incorporate pink without wearing a solid hue.
Pant suggestions:
The Purple Gingham Button Down
A purple gingham is a great, classic way, to wear purple and look extremely put together.
Pant suggestions:
The Purple Sweater
This is a great way to add some color to your look.
