And that winter clothing reappears once the temperature drops again. To make sure your seasonal clothing stays in good shape during its off-season, it's important to store it properly. Follow these tips for storing seasonal clothing. A little effort when you pack the clothing can make a big difference when it comes time to unpack for a new season.

Summer and fashion don’t always go hand in hand for men. Looking good comes easy when the temperatures drop. You can let your inner lumberjack shine, and chances are you’ll look fine. But Summer… that’s a different monster.

Off the top of the head, you probably associate Summer styles with the preppy look: pink shorts, polos, Topsiders. And while they definitely have the spirit of comfort down, preppy does not have a monopoly on warm looks. Whether you want edgy, athletic, rugged, or anything in between, this is the Summer to step it up and make it happen.

Men’s Summer Style Essentials

The Shorts

The preppy style has enjoyed a high fashion renaissance in past years, which means chino shorts have taken a bold turn.

Pastels are hot, but if you want to steer away from a fratty look, change up your colors. Khaki is a neutral option, but you don’t have to play it safe. Black or navy shorts can add new life to your wardrobe.

A pair of athletic shorts, be it mesh or sweat, is an easy option when the situation is casual. Athleisure is a legitimate fashion cornerstone these days, so don’t feel like they can only be worn with tees and tanks.

Branch out and try to work them into your social attire. As with all shorts, avoid overly baggy and long choices. You don’t want to look you hopped out of your dad’s 70s basketball photos, but just above the knee is always a solid bet.

The third option is a little more controversial: Denim Shorts.

Don’t fall into the John Cena trap. If you must wear jorts, make a well fitting pair of cutoffs. For length, don’t go overboard in either direction, and most importantly, don’t think they go with every outfit.

Jorts are a casual look that can be dressed up with a nice shirt, but don’t think you can show up to your boss’s barbeque in those bad boys.

The Shirts

Summer shirts can be a dangerous game. It’s hot. Keep it light.

Invest in some t-shirts with a little more substance than a 5-pack of Fruit of the Loom. Keep the designs simple. No Ed Hardy. No graphic tees with awful jokes.

Our pick: Striped Tee’s fits the bill perfectly.

If the situation calls for something with a little class, you have three options: polos, long sleeve button ups, and short sleeve button ups.

As for polos, they work well with chino shorts, but you will be encroaching on preppy, which is not a bad thing. If that style is out for you, play it down with neutral colors, a tailored fit, and a pair of jeans.

For button ups, keep the heat in mind. Go for a light weight linen for long sleeves.

Plain light colored shirts are always an easy find, but if you can find plaid that won’t give you a heat stroke, indulge in some patterns. Plain colors are staples for a reason, but don’t get boring.

For short sleeves, the same rules apply. Keep it light. Keep it breezy.

Patterned short sleeves are very in fashion right now, so get creative. Things to avoid are bowling shirts and Hawaiian shirts. If you’re not a Weekend Dad, don’t dress like one. But remember, “no Hawaiian” definitely does not mean “no floral.”

The Pants

Discussing pants in a summer fashion article might seem silly. Once it hits about 80 degrees, shorts are acceptable (and expected) in almost every situation. But you may find yourself slipping on some jeans this July.

Put your dark wash indigos away till fall, and try out some lighter shades. Avoid “true blue” and anything acid wash, but otherwise feel free to experiment on that end of the spectrum.

If a bold choice like that is not up your alley, go with black. Although it seems counterproductive, black jeans will always look good.

Chinos are a different story. The lightweight material was made for warm weather.

There’s no reason to be too bold with your colors, but don’t get stuck in a khaki rut. Olive, gray, blue, and pretty much anything non-florescent is up for grabs.

The Shoes

You have a lot of options in terms of footwear. Summer shoes like vans or boat shoes can go with just about anything. Keep your Vans’ colors subtle this season. White is always appropriate, while still giving a bit of a pop.

That doesn’t mean your sneakers should be boring – black and white are easy colors that work, but a sleek pair of low profile sneakers in any colorway can work and when done right add an amazing pop to any summer outfit.

Our Favorite: White Leather Sneakers are a winner for this summer. Versatile enough to work with any summer outfit.

Socks either need to be no-show or mid-calf. Socks can be worn proudly this summer. Expect to see plenty of Black or white mid-calves, but gray is also an acceptable option.

Outerwear and Accessories

I’m including outerwear with accessories because that’s what they are in the warmer months.

Keep something lightweight on hand for when the sun drops. You’re not going to be wearing it all day, so pick something that can go with almost any outfit you own.

Bomber jackets are still all the rage, so if you can find one thin enough, pick one up in something neutral, like cream. Unlined denim jackets are also a great option. Same color rules apply as with jeans. $ – Levi’s Denim Jacket//Topman Cream Bomber

As for other accessories, keep it practical. Sunglasses are must-haves. Invest in a quality pair.

As for hats, they’re are getting more relaxed. Retire your flat brims for something you might actually wear to a baseball game.

Lastly, find a comfortable watch. Metal, leather, and rubber are all going to be too heavy. The Timex Weekender, with its canvas strap, is a safe bet. Like any article you might wear this summer, material is the key.

When it comes to Summer fashion, don’t sweat it. Keep it lightweight and functional, but don’t sacrifice aesthetic. It’s the perfect time to experiment, because many of your peers probably aren’t going to bother trying. Hit June in style.

Summer is on its way and we are already feeling the heat thanks to what appears to be one of the warmest Aprils in recent memory if early indications are anything to go by. With the warmer weather comes a complete change in wardrobe, which the ardent fabric lover will relish as an opportunity to try out a few new designs to add to their summer clothes collection. With the heat most definitely on, it is crucial that you choose the right fabrics for your project, so here we aim to look at the top ten materials that are perfect for summer clothing.

Cotton

It’s an old favourite and has been used to make clothing for practically as long as people have been wearing clothes! Cotton is the first pick on our list and is an obvious choice for any fabric lover. Readily available and completely natural, good cotton will provide plenty of flexibility for any designs that you have in mind while also being light and airy enough to keep you cool when everybody else is roasting.

A range of different cottons are available on the site, many of which come in a wide variety of colours, but why not check out our regular cotton fabric to begin with?

Linen

Following hot on the heels of cotton is linen, which is the fabric of choice for many when warmer weather strikes. It is comfortable and easy to wear because of its light nature, which is great for those days when the sun would otherwise sap all of your energy. Much like cotton it is also very breathable and will keep you feeling refreshed no matter how long the day feels. Better yet it is also easy to wash and dry, making it a very versatile fabric, though bear in mind that linen is often prone to creasing.

Available in a range of colours, linen is great for any summer project. Check out our linen fabric page to find out more.

Rayon

Man-made and designed to be as light and comfortable as possible, rayon is a great choice for your summer clothing and can be used to make everything from shirts through to dresses. In many cases, especially with the fabrics offered on our site, rayon is blended with other fabrics, such as nylon or polyester, to help ensure those fabrics have a slightly lighter touch and are more suitable for summer clothing as a result.

While rayon as a standalone is not available on our site, it is used in our Chinese Dragon Brocade fabric, which is perfect for themed clothing.

Silk

Perhaps something of a surprising choice, as silk is known to retain heat and also show patches and other unpleasant signs that the sun is getting to be a little too much. However, when loosely woven it can be used to create gorgeously light garments that offer a touch of elegance that outweighs their inherent fragility, while also keeping you cool in the process.

A range of silks are available on our website, with our China Pure Silk Habotai offering an excellent example of a lightweight material.

Chiffon

Sheer fabrics are always a great choice for the summer and chiffon can be used in so many different ways to offer a splash of elegance while ensuring the heat doesn’t overwhelm the wearer. Ideal for dresses, particularly bridal wear, it is also perfect for use in the creation of nightgowns and other evening wear to help with those uncomfortable summer nights.

Our chiffon is available in a number of different colours and styles, so it is a good idea to browse the site to find the one that’s right for you. However, our Chiffon Wide fabric is always a good starting point.

Polyester

While not a great choice for lounging around in during the summer, especially with the likes of cotton and linen offering superior alternatives, polyester is an excellent wicking material that can be used to draw sweat away from the body and allow it to evaporate much more quickly. When blended with something like rayon it makes an effective choice for athletic wear.

We currently have mixed polyester fabrics available on clearance, though it is likely best to find a polyester-blend fabric for summer clothing.

Jersey

Often blended with cotton to make a rugged yet lightweight material, jersey is an excellent choice for summer clothing as it won’t weigh the wearer down and is also extremely flexible. This means it can be worked into most designs in addition to offering excellent levels of comfort. Frankly, that’s everything you need for summer loungewear.

Our cotton jersey fabric is available in a number of different colours and is great for t-shirts and other garments.

Chambray

For those who can’t go without their jeans no matter what the weather, chambray makes an excellent alternative to traditional denim and is light enough that it can be used for summer clothing. It is excellent for shirt dresses and will allow you to add a little bit of variety to your summer wardrobe.

We currently have pale blue chambray fabric available on the site, though other colours may become available at a later date.

Seersucker Lycra

Summer Clothes Sketch Tutorial

Ideal for the sporty types, seersucker lycra gives you all of the flexibility you would expect from a fabric that has the word “lycra” in the title while also offering an increased level of breathability and lightness thanks to the seersucker material. Excellent for gym wear and also ideal for those who want to give making their own bicycle shorts a bash, though it isn’t a good choice for simply lounging around in the heat.

Seersucker lycra fabric is currently available on our site in either yellow or blue.

Lyocell

Though currently unavailable through our online store, we still feel that Lyocell deserves a mention as it is one of the most unique summer fabrics around. Made using sustainable wood pulp, the fabric is amazingly soft, especially when considering the source material, and is a great choice for those who like to go green in everything that they do. It is also an excellent wicking fabric, much like polyester.

So there you have it! Ten fabrics that will ensure that you stay cool as the weather gets warmer. With these materials you can add to your summer wardrobe while also staying comfortable whether you’re enjoying the sun at home or living it up on holiday.
