What works
- Use cleaner fabrics, calmer colors, and one structured layer.
- Let fit and silhouette carry the outfit before you add statement pieces.
- Keep sneakers or loafers clean enough that they still support the rest of the look.
What to avoid
- Do not confuse sloppy basics with laid-back confidence.
- Avoid mixing too many dressy and too many casual signals in the same outfit.
- Skip flashy logos, noisy prints, and exhausted footwear.
