While it’s true that the bride is the star of the big day, the groom is her knight in shining armour…or should we say knight in a nice suit?

Keeping up with trends is a full-time job. Lucky for you, we’re here to showcase some of the most noteworthy trends to come straight out of the latest market trips. I guess you could say, we’ve done some of the legwork for you!

Here's our list of must-haves in men’s fashion to take note of this season:

Shorts: From plaids to khakis to cargos, shorts are a summer essential that looks great paired with boat shoes, sandals, or a fresh pair of sneakers.

Capri Shorts AKA “Man-pris”: The trendier cousin of the shorts, capris are making a big comeback this season.

Tanks: When the temperatures peak, a stylish tank is a welcome change from your average tee. There are tons of varieties to choose from, so you can wear one to the beach or a casual lunch date.

Blazers: Cotton or linen blazers are a great way to dress up an otherwise casual ensemble.

Screen Tees: If you’re going to stock up on any one particular trend, make it the screen tee. They add instant style with minimal effort and maximum summer comfort.

Polo shirts: These preppy-inspired classics are making a huge return to men’s fashion. Whether you opt for a plain polo or choose a more embellished one, it adds an instantly more put-together feel to your casuals.
