Tie It Up

Dress up a slim cut and a medium-wash jacket by wearing it with a button-down and tie. It’s a classic look for semi-dressy occasions (i.e., wear it on a date, not to a wedding).

Dark, rigid denim cleans up your look. Tip: Go a shade darker or lighter between jacket and jeans or it’ll look like you’re wearing a Canadian tuxedo.

Vest over jacket nails the Michael J. Fox Back to the Future look but is less effective as a flotation device.

A medium-dark wash with tailored details will keep you looking slim and trim (and possibly other words that rhyme with -im).
