There's always there's a video some of you would timestamps linked in the description
I'll be sure to leave a link to every single item mentioned on this listen also a link to honey a free browser
Extension that helps you save money when buying stuff online by finding discount codes that actually works
I've been using this app for a few months now and I actually really think it's way to actually help you save money on
Buying any of these items on this list, too if you're interested, so be sure to check that out as well
Let's get started. Number one on this list is is so classic and that is a pair of black suit trousers
this is the ultimate is central because this is
Classic for your men's formalwear and your men's business formal and business casual wear which is great but here on this channel
I like a lot of casual fashion and where these shine is
Actually in the summertime as being a substitute for shorts jeans and chinos everything about trousers
Especially black suit trousers is that they're universe? They're gonna match with everything and they are lightweight
So you actually the summertime you can throw this on with something like a black or white polish or any pair of?
Loafers or even low top white sneakers and have an amazing
casual outfit taking a piece of really dressed up formal wear and getting more out of it by just
Looking a little bit deeper into it
I think it's actually a great choice for this summer as an alternative number two on this list
We're sticking with pants and that is a pair of distressed black denim jeans
These are the ones that are cut at the knees know goes like two slits now
I love black pants
And I personally think if you want to dress casually and have a street with or it have a street wear aesthetic in distress black
pair of jeans is your best bet now that you're distressing can be to your liking I like the ones with the nice cut because
A lot of times I see videos where if you talk about dressing
Down which is go with a non distressed black pair of jeans
Well, if you're gonna go non-distressed pair of jeans and they're black might as well wear suit trousers
It's my opinion
The great thing about these is that these are fun casual
Neutral colors are going to match with everything beautifully you get to wear them forever
Pretty much that these will always be in stock for me. The distressing will be here in there. It's just fun. It's casual
It's versatile. It's
Essentially goes with everything you can dress them up a bit. You can be unique experimental number three on this list
We're finally finishing up with defense and that is a light wash pair of
Blue jeans. What? Can I say about lightweight and blue jeans dad that really needs to be said
I think every guy and their grandfather owned, but hey, you can get him anywhere between
Omaree jeans and Walmart, which is amazing
You can wear these with almost anything but some of the ways that I personally like to wear em
I think are a bit more low-key is I'd like to just wear em with a plain flannel shirt
button-up have a pair of leather boots on and I just think this is a rugged masculine look and actually this can also hope you
Guys can also wear this worn not in. Let's say an urban city environment
Maybe we live out in the country or they're just you know
That'll be a little to you and you know different from where you are
But I personally think there's a great out masculine outfit overall and even great if you're a little more country
Number four on this list is one of my absolute favorites and that is the tan
overcoat the reason I chose a 10
Overcoat specifically or something like a sport coat is it it feels a lot more to a younger generation?
Kamiya albinism with a top coat you can wear with a oxford
Professionally looking great. This is a substitute for a suit jacket or a blazer
But you can also dress it down and let's see like a hoodie and thrashed pair of jeans and still look dynamite in style
Pieces that you get that much variety from and that capability of looking great
This is why especially put 10 because it is one of the a neutral color that will not only match with everything
Well, it will also
Complement almost every other skin tone because it is neutral your problem in my white asking to anything complement
Somebody's dark ass skin tone or somebody's all at ass
Skin tone and I personally think this is a more of a low-key pick buddy peeling
It's essential and you can get almost limitless outfits with this unless you get ridiculous too stupid with your colors
number 5 on this list it has to be on this list and that is a
Leather jacket I person like a leather biker jacket. I'm actually wearing a suede biker jacket that I got I know
No, thank you. I appreciate it but much like the light wash pair of blue jeans a leather jacket literally needs no introduction
It's been around forever and it's one of these iconic pieces of clothing. That is
primarily associated with men's style in men's fashion because even more matchless in late 1950s 1960s
actors like James Dean
Elvis Presley they all had a biker or a leather jacket Wayne that really popularized it and they have still maintain
Relevancy like 60 years since they were first pop it and it's just amazing and what I like now
There is a lot more styles out there like racing jackets biker jackets traditional cut and the outfits here
They're they're endless
They can be dressed up which I'll do a video on how to dress up a leather jacket. They can be worn boots jeans
Chinos turtlenecks you name it? These are just a fun iconic piece of menswear. That'll really never go out of fashion
So if you want to buy eight really like high-quality lambskin leather jacket like $1,000
It's a safe bet that you're gonna wear it for the rest of your life number six on this list is a white dress shirt
Or an white oxford. I don't care what your fashion sense is
You need to have a white oxford or a white dress shirt in your wardrobe because they're gonna be times where you need to address
professionally whether you get a court case a
hot professional date or
interviews business setting you're gonna need these and these are again always been around but I also put
Oxford or dress shirt because of this new wave of smart casual and I actually do like it because this takes
Drew very formal pieces of clothing that are not so versatile outside their own dress code and actually gives you a lot more
Outfits out of it now some of the ways that I personally like to wear a white Oxford
it's kind of this little sneaky that is actually in the
summertime because these can be worn both tucked in untucked cuz of its
Links with that already gives you more outfits first thing
we like to wear you look like an olive green pair of chinos and a pair of like
Drivers and I just think this is great. I also like to roll the sleeves because because it's warm that day
I was a person think we're taking a piece of clothing that is meant to be dressed up
professional or finding a casual alternative and running with it and just having a lot of fun and a lot of variety because with
Outfits I want you to get the most out of it
that's why I want you to get these items if that's so you can not just wear it with one kind of outfit once a
Day, I want you to have at least like 10 or 20 different outfits whenever you either number seven on this list
It's basic as it gets and that is a white cotton crew neck t-shirt now
I thought this video couldn't get more basic as I think I put basic twice in the title
But we do get more basic and what is more basic than a white crew neck t-shirt?
You can get them anywhere for any quality and any price range. We give the supima cotton ones that I like because
They're soft. The great thing here is that these are excellent pieces
if you are a have a muscular bill because if you're muscular and you wear a crewneck white t-shirt, oh
You're you you're drink you're drinking that's all I got to say but also things that you can layer this with anything
I know sometimes we guys like when it comes to like adding more
Clothes to an outfit it can get complicated and I knew a man when I was a beginner. It was a
Bit more challenging but this is where the pieces were you guys write anything on and be safe
like I'm wearing one right now, although it is black but then again
Just thrown away one here, and you can look great as well number eight on
This list is one of my favorite pieces of footwear. And that is the tan suede Chelsea boot
Might have a zipper there cool. I know what you're thinking
I put a Chelsea boot now over dress shoes and a loafer
But what I like about this is the fact that you can wear them in multiple seasons
Which is great the fact that the suede has a nice casual and semi
Smart casual look to it and also the tan again is a neutral closet is going to match
beautifully with any other color that you wear
Darker tones even better this will so you get that contrast what I like about here. Is that you have
Variety and I love to push for a variety when I do a basics
Video because it gets more people into dressing better
And the great thing here is that you are a fresh pair of jeans with this and a tad
Overcoat and like a white hoodie and you look amazing
But you can also dress them up and also look amazing and it's a boot so you can have that capability of being warm
the colder months which for me
Kind of put some dress shoes to shame and also boots tend to be a little more comfortable than dress shoes
You're not on this list is a pair of all white sneakers now
No, basic mens of fashion video would be complete without a pair of low top white sneakers
I decided to be a little more unique just a little bit and go with Reebok classics with he comes with a retro throwback
Because I'm getting into sneakers. So so so these are training wheels when it comes to ultimate versatility a white sneaker
You cannot beat them because it's white
It's going to match with everything and it is literally going to match with every single outfit that you could put together including
Suits I've seen guys on Instagram wear a low top white sneaker with a suit and it kind of works
But then again, you don't have to be that experimental these and get them anywhere for any price range inequality
experiment what kind of style silhouette sneaker you like and it's just
Free game here when it comes to your shooting although I feel like if now if you go with adidas Stan Smith or Donita
Superstars you'll be a little basic because now every guy is throwing to wear them. That's my thing go a little more low-key
Brand or go a little bit more different silhouettes retro throwback
I think are excellent and just go to town and just find stuff that you like to love to wear and just if you don't
Know my shoe to put on throw on white ones and just call it a day and lastly never turn on
This list is a black turtleneck or crewneck and we do need something for the colder month
I don't care where you live and that is either a black turtleneck or a Black Creek
Turtlenecks are not every guy's cup of tea because it doesn't make you look like a snobby art professor
that's beyond the point what I personally love about black Torro nice and black crew neck sweaters is
Obviously functionality to keep you warm it in the longer winter months and it also is a neutral color
So it's going to match with everything and everything on this list and the great thing here
Especially about turnings is that they t9 should be worn with suit jackets overcoats and suit
The lasers which is an excellent alternative
And also these kind of make you look smart again, if you don't want to dress them up
You can dress in that like a distressed paradeen and still look read
This is a more of a low-key piece that I think a lot of guys
Overlook, but they still have the versatility of everything class
So for me today again, that is my top ten basic mens of wardrobe essential
