5 Of My "Real Life" Outfits Might Really Surprise You

[@TheCameltotem]

I love that you could reflect on your past and have a perspective on it. You are right, style changes as you evolve. I've been interested in menswear since 10 years back now and I would for sure say my style has become more casual over the years. I started out like many, only wanting to wear suits and ties and while it's a great look its not always fitting. I really enjoy finding casual style and making it look timeless. Really love to wear shawl cardigans, suede jackets, layering. There is a lot you can play around with on the casual end but still making it look really stylish.

[@hespokestyle]

Love your comment. You totally get it. I often find that people who have a negative and visceral reaction when I post something casual--or "REAL"!!--are likely at a different point on their own style journey. Like you so wonderfully acknowledge, we all start off on this journey really focusing in on the dapper and tailored side of our wardrobes. And we go deep. It's an important part of the process and almost necessary to shun other forms of dressing so you can fully immerse yourself in what is "right". But as I point out in the very beginning of this video, it's just not practical all the time! If you're saying you wear a suit and tie or slacks and a sport coat around the house, I really think you're lying to the world about who you really are. I'm a real person and don't play a character for viewers on the channel--that, to me, is creative expression and a chance to connect with other real people.

I think what you said at 0:26 bears repeating, and really resonates with me, both as a 40 y/o and someone who’s settled outside of a major city. I love being conspicuously dressed up for things - when I show up for work without a jacket of some kind, my coworkers wonder if something happened to me! - but life in the suburbs/exurbs really doesn’t allow for opportunities to be formally dressed, and often you’ll stand out in a bad way if you’re not careful. I think evolving your style, especially as you age, is important, and frankly, there’s a lot more artfulness to elevating a casual wardrobe than the dress-by-numbers approach you often need to do for wearing suits for work.

[@hespokestyle]

Really well said. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

[@jproog41]

"but life in the suburbs/exurbs really doesn’t allow for opportunities to be formally dressed, and often you’ll stand out in a bad way if you’re not careful." Amen to that! I find that where I am, stylish everyday wear allows me to stand out some while I fit in.

[@matts90]

Enjoyed hearing your thoughts on this. I’ve been adjusting my look too, from tailoring to casual, without (hopefully) looking sloppy. I think it’s worth saying that there is more at play than an individual style evolution. As much as I love tailoring, the world has changed and I’m not going to wear a suit and tie taking zoom calls from my dining table. I try to find occasions to wear the tailoring I love, but I have to wear something else at other times.

In the infantry, we always talked about METT-TC: mission, enemy, terrain/weather, troops/support available, time available, and civil considerations. Essentially the situation dictates our actions, uniforms, equipment, and courses of action. I think that’s how you’ve illustrated your approach. Your “uniform” and equipment will be dependent on your activity, your friends, the weather, civil considerations. One weird thing about Oregon: people seem to hate umbrellas here, for some reason. No matter the civil considerations, I usually have my umbrella because I have a nice one with a whangee handle I bought at an estate sale for $10.

[@hespokestyle]

Love your thoughts on the Apple watch! I'm a watch guy too, and was always interested in getting an Apple watch, but i could never figure out what the "killer app" is for the watch that provides the value I want to get one.

[@hespokestyle]

For me, it's the health tracking stuff--HR, workouts, etc. And one of my other favorite parts about it is that it dislodges me from my phone. I hate typing with my fingers so I love just being able to respond to texts via speaking to the watch, which also keeps me focused and less likely to bounce to another app once I'm done.

[@MPS186282]

I have recently struck a very comfortable balance in my wardrobe where the clothing I'm most comfortable wearing usually include slacks and button ups, and other things that you'd find hovering around the nebulous "smart casual" label. I have jeans and tees, and I have suits and tuxedos, and I'm able to recognize that situations exist that call for those. The majority of the time, though, I find somewhere in the middle to be best, because it allows me to pull from and show off my knowledge of sartorial style and streetwear/modern fashion to look not so stuffy or casual as each respective method would imply in a vacuum.

[@qarhsi]

I think athleisure, when done right, looks really nice. Also, it's comfortable. When I'm dressed up, I am always conscious about what I'm doing, my posture, etc, which gets tiring. When I'm in athleisure, I am far less conscious of things and more relaxed. However, one of the things I don't really like about it is that it's very common, and i don't really like to be in similar outfits with most others. I like #4 the most because of the colours and the balance in the outfit. #5 is nice too, but the hoodie isn't for me personally. And I would avoid mixing dressy clothes with athleisure looks for myself.

I’ve been rocking the blazer, hoodie, jean look for the better part of a decade. The only challenge is finding the right hoodie. I don’t like the gym hoodie so it’s difficult to find a dress hoodie. And I love henleys.

[@albinwinge]

Have you tried any of the thinner knitted wool hoodies? I think those are quite nice and a little more elevated than a regular one. There are many options but I have the "pascal hoodie" from oscar jacobson which I like, it also doesnt have the kangaroo pounch which is a plus in my opinion.

[@hespokestyle]

Awesome. This particular hoodie might be a good choice for you as it lacks the front pocket, which tends to make the overall feel more casual. I would also recommend looking into a thinner cashmere or wool/cashmere blend in hoodie form. They exist! I'll actually be featuring one on the channel next Thursday so stay tuned1

[@matteomarchesi5237]

Little late, but I would highly recommend the brand Rhone. They're more on the casual end but their 'chinos' look like really high end chinos yet they're super comfortable and fit just like suit pants would. Their T-shirts and polos (long and short sleeves) are super comfortable as well. They also have outerwear that fits REALLY well.

Keep going forward, the only scenario I've lived is the trash one 😂 because I was already dressed.

Those outfits are actually very casual, and in almost all the outfits you can swap the sneakers for a leather derby, or a chukka boot and looks better and be still comfy. The only outfit that I didn’t like it is the first, for me the hoody is too sporty I cannot see with a blazer or a sport jacket. I will definitely suggest the same look with one of the options that you wear in the other outfits or a Barbour waxed jacket.

I honestly don't agree with your view, but hey it's nice to hear another point of view. I do believe you are correct that wearing a suit to run a general run at target might be over the top. However, I feel the other spectrum is just as bad. You can look good on any side of the spectrum, and I feel that people don't want to put in the least amount of effort. A pair of chinos 98 cotton or 100 jeans are comfortable enough , i don't see the point of garments that try to give the illusion of something more refained when they simply are not .

This one really hit home with me, especially the start about the ever going, changing style journey. Started my style journey back in 2014. A few years ago I would hardly leave home without shirt, tie and sports jacket at least on. I loved wearing that and felt good. It was my armour. Then came the covid pandemic, everything flipped, so did I, became unemployed. I was still wearing my stuff. But then on the other side, I don't know but I started to dress down. Also I realized that I am someone who likes to walk a lot any time of the year. And while it's nice and certainly doable to walk in more dressed up shoes, trousers and what not, hiking gear is more practical. And it's also who I am feel I am.

Nothing special, and definitely did not warrant the $100+ MSRP price tag for me. I genuinely felt "influenced" by this video. I sent them back. To me, they were average quality and I went and bought a generic brand of similar pants off Amazon that I felt was higher quality for like $30. Genuinely happy with those. Not going to name the brand because I have nothing to gain!
