Back-To-Work Looks for Men

Teddi Welch Teddi Welch

It used to be that September was for back-to-school for the under-22 crowd, but with Covid-19 vaccines in the United States available for everyone older than six months, many workplaces are going back to the office 5 days a week or adopting hybrid work-from-home situations. The last time *a lot* of us were wearing anything besides sweatpants and a nice shirt during our 9-to-5 was March 2020 and trending styles (and our bodies, to be honest) have changed since then. Need to revamp your work wardrobe? We got you. It’s all about looking sharp while staying comfortable this year. Keep scrolling for the best smart-casual office looks for men.

Smart-Casual Men's Jackets 

Yes, you could go for a more classic work look with a blazer or suit jacket, but don't be afraid to add a bit of a flare and style to your professional looks. A great way to do this is with a suede (or faux suede) jacket –– especially with fall coming, you may want to bundle a bit. We're also loving the unstructured blazer look for a business-professional meets business-casual look, so we included below one from Lululemon that you can literally wear with anything.

Work Shirts for Guys

A classic blue button-up shirt is never a bad call when it comes to a work look. And the price on this H&M one is A+ (plus it's easy to iron)...

But please don't sleep on colors and patterns! If there's anything we've learned these past few years, it's that you should always show the world your true self –– and that means with your style, too! So spice it up with some more color or patterns my dudes.

Back-to-Work Pants for Men

Since we're encouraging some ~exciting~ things when it comes to your shirts and jackets, we recommend getting slim-fit basics when it comes to your trousers so you can pair them with pretty much anything. Pro tip: if you see pleats on the pants, take them –– they're trending this year.

Business Shoes for Guys

Don't *ever* forget your feet! Depending on your office, you can get away with wearing pretty much anything on your hoofs (though we'd never recommend flip-flops), so below we're giving you a variety from high-end to fairly casual, pricey to affordable! We're seeing pairings of minimalist sneaks with business looks, and derby shoes are also hot hot hot for every gender right now in both professional and casual settings.
