Now, it seems a little bit unfair — it’s a new year and with that comes with new wear. So, what exactly are you going to wear? As men, we’re not the greatest at shopping, but we still like to look stylish. Here are a few tips that will keep you up-to-date on style for 2014.
Let’s first step into the closet of business and formal wear with the all intrusive double-breasted blazer. We all know office wear is important, and the double-breasted blazer shows power at your place of work. Now, you can go for the original one color look but to show off your expressive side, you can pick a nice floral designed double-breasted suit.
Speaking of floral, take it to spring and summer with floral flat-front shorts. Let your fashion blossom in the sun with shorts. Let’s not stop there with the patterns as now you can start adding more polka-dotted button downs and chinos. The patterns will create a more vibrant and lively look to your outfits. Karmaloop has a plethora of shirts with these floral patterns, and don’t forget to check out Club Monaco as they will turn up the volume of colors and patterns in the spring and fall. 
Don’t forget the camo design too, which will explode on the scene to counter (or balance) the floral look. This style may seem a bit hipster, but Urban Outfitters will accommodate all of your print needs. Please, this year, don’t be afraid to mix bold patterns.
Remember, fashion doesn’t only involve clothes; the accessories are equally important. Men’s bags have made a steep resurgence over the past few seasons. Tablets are probably to blame, but as seasons pass, expect bags to evolve and appear more feminine. Expect to find leather duffle bags from stores like Nordstrom and Macy’s. Even though they may seem a bit mainstream, they’re great in quality. For the more affordable route, check DSW or H&M.  
As for watches — leather. Leather and even more leather will surround wrists, keeping them cozy. If you haven’t heard of PNDLM already, this fairly old brand is giving a new look on how men do leather watches. Look them up. You could also incorporate a camera in your hand to emphasize on how much you pay attention to your fashion. 
To top things off, let’s work on your shoes and sneakers. Remember how there’s only two colors for shoes (about 100 shades of brown and black)? Well, it’s time switch it up and start wearing more colors. Aldo will have your shoe game revamped, even if you’re a budget. Also, continue wearing those wing-tipped shoes because with more colors involved, creativity will fly with the wingtips.
As for sneakers, brighten up the stage for everyone with neon. The powerful palette is popping up on every shoe from fashion high tops to functional cross-trainers. The Nike Free Run sneakers are the perfect example to keep up with the competition. Keep things shining with 2014 men’s fashion.
