Breaking The Rules: The Look

July 2, 2008 12:00 PM

It takes a brave man to wear a tailored jacket with tailored shorts, says Michael Macko of GQ. To pull off a similar look, one could tone down the outfit by opting for a cardigan with cargo shorts. Add in a dress shirt and tie, and there you have it, one of summer's fearless and fashionable styles! Too cryptic? We'll help you out. Try a look like one below:

Paul Frederick Shirt

The shirt: Pinpoint oxford button-down collar dress shirt available in nine colors from Paul Frederick, $39.50.

Renato Tie

The tie: Renato Balestra navy blue geometric patterned silk tie from Amazon, $39.95.

Urban Outfitters Cardigan

The cardigan: Knit cardigan available in four colors from Urban Outfitters, $29.
