What To Wear This Season: A Style Guide for the Young, Professional Gentleman

Chiming in on Notable’s style panel is Reid Stewart, co-designer of Lifetime Collective. Reid provides insight on how to wear two men’s trends not to be overlooked this summer: day-to-night suits and the bright & bold prints.

Read the full story here and take a peek at Reid’s tips below.

How to Wear: Day to Night Suits

“The three-piece suit is no longer strictly pressed for the boardroom - go from day to night and opt for a navy hue to shake things up. Perfect tailoring for work and for play has to be the most important trend for menswear this spring. Lifetime has a slew of great options for bottoms, suitable for both the office and the outdoors.”

How to Wear: Bight, Bold Prints

“Incorporate some prints and add a little brightness to your professional getup, like our Cecil Printed Button Up or the Xavier Multi Sweater.”
