Men’s Swimwear July 21st, 2011 By Diana
Gone are the days where hibiscus flowers were the only print option for men who loved the surf and the sand. Now men’s swimwear offers more lengths and prints than ever before, which guarantees comfort and style for men of all kinds. We’ve gathered six of the most versatile pieces around to help men go from the sand onto the boardwalk with ease.

Men’s Summer Fashion 2011 May 9th, 2011 By Diana
Summer may be hot and sticky, but it doesn’t mean that guys have to don flip flops and raggedy shorts everywhere they go. Check out our tips for styling Men’s summer fashion that easy and timeless.
For men’s shorts, try to stay above the knee and shop for a tailored fit. Cuffed shorts look fresh and fashionable. This is a fun way to wear a color you usually wouldn’t wear in a pant, like this washed-out red, to make your outfit look crisp and cool.
Polo Ralph Lauren Cut Off Chinos Short
Polo shirts are the usual go-to for short-sleeve tops for men, but we also love a simple men’s v-neck tee. The material is much thinner than a polo and the low-cut front will be cooler than having a collar around your neck.

For shoes, we love the classic boat shoe. There is nothing better than a man who takes the preppy boat shoe and puts his own stylish twist on them. We like the salt wash on these Sperry Top-Sider Men’s Halyard boat shoes–they look nonchalant and worn in!

And of course, to protect your eyes, you must invest in a good pair of shades. The Ray-Ban Wayfarer style will always be a classic. Looking for something fresh and new? Try a round pair like these round Persol sunglasses in tortoise or in classic black.

Men’s Swimwear May 7th, 2011 By Arianna
As far as we can tell, there is no Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition for men’s swimwear. Which is a little disappointing. So we thought we’d do our part to help the cause. Plus, it’s almost summer and dudes are going to need some new bathing suits. Here at the beso blog, we’re all about providing a public service. What could be sexier than sea turtles? Are we right, ladies? Ladies? Hello…? Well, anyway, these Men’s Vilebrequin Turtle-Print Ocean Boardshorts feature a long cut, a flat waist, and sexy, slim legs.
Ralph Lauren has been churning out high fashion swimwear for ages now. Comfortable elasticized drawstring waists, bright colors. And models who look like this guy.
We love the slightly retro look of these box swim shorts by Original Penguin. So much summery fun!

Men’s Cargo Shorts March 25th, 2011 By Staci Diane
Cargo shorts are the ultimate in men’s casual fashion, yet they always seem to have mixed reviews. Some men consider them a wardrobe staple for spring and summer, while others can’t stand the sloppy, saggy silhouette. If you refuse to let go of your cargo shorts, choose slimmer cuts that rest on the hip, and branch out to bold plaids, seersucker, camouflage, linen and denim cargo styles. Wearing a fitted shirt instead of an oversized t-shirt gives a more polished look. What are your thoughts on the look?

Men’s Clothing, Done Right March 24th, 2011 By Diana
Men’s clothing just doesn’t get enough love on this blog sometimes, and we’re trying to change that. These men all are letting their real creativity shine through with standout pieces that are classic and stylish. In the photos below, it’s all about great fit and (almost) unnoticed details.
Like Jermaine Delay of Uniqlo:

His quilted jacket is spot on, and the straw hat is the icing on the cake. Here is one of our favorite quilted jackets from RVCA, which is 35% off at Nordstrom.
This men’s camel jacket is perfectly tailored, and the contrasting nudes lend for a modern take on a classic fit. Of course, his best accessory has to be the stunning woman to his left.

Replicate the camel coat with this Jos. A. Bank Camel Hair Top Coat:
And then there’s this trio of men who just got it RIGHT in their black leather jackets! Beso has an amazing selection of black leather jackets right now.

Men’s Plaid Shirts March 21st, 2011 By Diana
A staple in any man’s closet has got to be the plaid shirt. Plaid shirts are accessibly fashionable–everyone can wear them (and girls can borrow them from their men)!

Here are some of our favorites to help any man channel the Becks:
Salt Valley Bright Plaid Western Roll-Up Shirt
Bonobos Oliver Spencer Duncan Plaid
Gant Rugger Men’s Plaid Twill Sportshirt
And a neutral cardigan, for those chilly spring nights, Beckham approved!

Men’s Wardrobe Staple: Linen Blazer February 26th, 2011 By Staci Diane
Every man should invest in a linen blazer. It’s one of the few items a man can wear any place. He can throw it on with his favorite jeans for a cool and casual look or with matching linen pants for a more formal occasion. When it comes to matching shirts with linen blazers, a lightweight sweater, button-down or t-shirt in a muted color will complete the look. Aside from its versatility, linen is one of the most comfortable materials to wear in the summer heat.
Banana Republic Tailored linen/cotton two-button blazer, $198.00 at Banana Republic
Calvin Klein Beige Stripe Sport Coat, $249.99 $99.99 (60% off) at Men’s Wearhouse
