The Best Clothes For Summer Sports: Golf

Golf Season is here, so why not wear the best looking and most comfortable sport apparel while swinging those clubs. Designers like Ralph Lauren have created collections to accommodate athletes. Specifically for golf, one collection is called Polo Golf and for all sport attire, the other collection is known as RLX.

Ralph Lauren makes a variety of items for Golf players ranging from polos, golf pants, sweaters and shorts. The rich and preppy styles of these items are a Golf players dream wardrobe. RLX features Green Plaid Shorts that render from a moisture-wicking technical fabric that makes golfing in the warm sun more bearable than it can be. Polo Golf features polo shirts such as a Stripe Pima Vintage Lisle Polo. It is designed to produce supreme comfort and breathability on the Golf course. Polo Golf also features Linen Windowpane Golf Pants. These pants are classy, fitted, straight legged pants that make movement very easy.

Summer Heat vs Office Dress Code

With the increase in temperatures and the heat on the rise, feeling comfortable in your work attire seems to be a battle for many. On a hot 90 degree day, when most would prefer to be poolside with a drink in hand or laying on the beach, many stick to their priorities and head to work. How can you accommodate not only your office dress code but the Summer heat? Here’s how: Well-known designers such as Ralph Lauren have launched their Spring/Summer 2011 Menswear Collections that range from pinstriped suits to suits with shorts. Instead of wearing a suit with long slacks, why not substitute the slacks with shorts? Suits with shorts are a very stylish trend this Summer. This style would still adhere to a professional look but can accommodate the high temperatures of the season. A light textured dress shirt with a blazer and dress shorts would be a perfect outfit for the office. To accessorize, a tie or bow tie can be worn to complement the shorts suit. Although these fashion trends may not apply to the corporate world, others who have a more laid back and casual dress code can adopt this look.

In Bloom

Every year it seems we get a fresh take on that most quintessential summer standby: the short. Thanks to the recent re-imagination of the bloomer, this season is no exception. From this union between the unflattering undergarment and our trusty summer wardrobe piece comes the impossibly hip bloomer short. Bloomer shorts promise to inject life into a perhaps tired warm weather staple. The silk pair pictured left which boasts a fun allover ruffle detail and floral print are part of Marc Jacobs’ Spring/Summer 2010 collection and will keep you looking effortlessly chic at summer music festivals and backyard barbecues alike. Since this look packs a lot of style punch, be sure to keep the rest of your ensemble laid back. Paired with a basic tee, braided belt, and your favorite tan soft-leather oxford flats, you can’t go wrong.
