  • trainers
  • t-shirts
  • flip flops or sandals

#18- Celebrity Inspired

One can dump jeans and chinos or trousers in any way they want. This is how Robert Downey Jr. is doing, closed shoes, a jacket and a checkered shirt is giving him a really cool guy look which everyone wants, no matter what their age is.

#16- The Minimalist Dressing

Winters are a time when many cannot carry many styles due to layers, Just a turtle neck with formal trousers and an overcoat can give you the best looks for a performance night.

#15- Trendy Suit with White Shirt

White shirts are a saviour, if you do not want to look conventional then dump the greys and blacks and opt for something bold and daring. Keep things simple by pairing a dark trendy suit with a white shirt.

A tailored suit would look best if you are going to attend a special concert or cinema. Keep your style statement accessories with you to show some uniqueness. A statement necktie will look smart here too, and a custom suit won’t go amiss, either.
