The glasses: Ray-Ban Aviators (1 – $129) and Caravans (2 – $119), especially more vintage models, are an unimpeachable choice for wannabe pilots, but Randolph Engineering’s Concorde (3 – $99) and Aviator (4 – $99) might give off a slightly more legitimate (read: less main stream corporate) vibe. Remember: go with gray tinted lenses because they don’t distort color as much as green or blue. And stay away from polarized lenses since they can not only make the instrument panel difficult to read, but also make it hard to spot marauding air pirates.

The point here is simply not looking like a professional bass fisherman, NASCAR driver, or an avid fan of either sport. Sporty glasses are best left to the beach volleyball court, speed skating rink, or baseball diamond, but there are still tons of great options for every-day, around-town shades. Male, 29, Los Angeles, Engineering Men are lucky, I think, in that we don’t necessarily need extensive wardrobes to be well dressed, and the less we give in to contemporary fashion trends, the better off we are. A few staple items are really all it takes to be able to dress for almost any occasion. If clothes fit well and meet or exceed expectations of appropriateness (wearing a polo when a t-shirt would be acceptable), the rest comes down to details and individual style. Using essential elements as the wardrobe foundation, building good individual style is as simple as mixing, matching, and adding in some elements of freshness. |
