Important Meeting Summer Outfit.
Why is it a Find? Looking your best for an important meeting often means wearing a suit. This Brooks Bothers Italian wool suit lets a gent dress up, while still projecting a comfortable Summer look. How? They have taken out most of the internal structural components of the jacket to create a less structured, easy fitting suit. The result is all business, and season right.
Wear it with: The rich blue color of this suit is seriously easy to accessorize. For an important business meeting, wear it with a solid or pattern dress shirt and tie. For a less formal look, wear with a bolder pattern dress shirt and skip the tie.
Fit Tip: Brooks Brothers Regent fit is modern, with a slightly trimmer jacket and pants, to create an updated but not skinny fit in your normal size.
Alternatives: It is also available in a really great dark navy plaid.

Any Summer Day Work Outfit.
Why is it a Find? A casual cotton or linen sport coat that can be worn with jeans or khakis is simply a must for every gent’s Summer work wardrobe. This Peter Miller jacket fits the bill with timeless style. The linen fabric has a fine-line stripe to it that creates a wonderful visual texture that still reads as a neutral. It is softly constructed and lined for true comfort. Linen doesn’t have a crisp, pressed look, but Peter Millar’s high-end quality also won’t be sharply wrinkled – creating perfect casual attitude.
Wear it with: The blue and white color combination makes it easy to coordinate and dress up or down. In this outfit, we’re showing an everyday work look, with a simple white button down (right), blue flat front pants (below), and a sharp pair of shoes (below, right). It is also great with jeans and a white t-shirt or polo for a more casual day. And of course, any of your casual cotton pants will work. You can also pop a little color with a yellow or pink oxford button up.
