Where to Wear Polo Shirts

Where To Wear Polo Shirts 

The Polo shirt is modest and timeless apparel worn by both men and women. It is a step up from the everyday T-shirt; you can effortlessly dress up for a casually elegant affair or down for a less classy event or sports.

 Polo shirts designs are for all seasons with both long and short sleeves, and for those who love to tee off, there are unique golf polo shirts. Although most people generally wear polo shirts in the summer summertime, paired with the right shoes and pants, it will be perfect for almost every occasion all year round. 

 Here are some tips on when to wear a polo shirt.

 

1. Casual Office Days

 Nothing beats wearing a polo shirt tucked in for a casual day at work. Even for dress-up days, wearing a jacket over a polo shirt gives it a professional look. If you work in a setting where casual is the norm, polo shirts are an excellent choice. Those shirts look terrific with jeans, too. You can nevertheless preserve an aura of professionalism even if you are permitted to wear more informal clothing in your department.

Go for a darker shade of jeans for a relaxed manner that still fits in at work. Dark blue and black jeans are always a reliable selection.

Whatever you choose, polos are always perfect for work, and you can get the ideal men's polo shirts at Ploumanach.

 

2. When Golfing

 Golf polo shirts are overpoweringly preferred apparel by both golf clubs and the players, all over the world.

 The materials used to make regular polo shirts are cotton, piqué, merino fleece, and silk. On the other hand, golf shirts use sweat-wicking material, especially since players are outdoors for lengthy periods in the searing heat. Usually, synthetic materials work better for golfers rather than 100% cotton. Nonetheless, for players wishing to wear natural materials on the golf excursion, there are options like raw material golf polo shirts.

 Keep in mind that wool supersedes synthetics in many ways. It's the various benefit of odor resistance, so, unlike the more sweat-absorbent synthetics, your shirt won't have a smell even after playing for several hours in the sun. Not all golf shirts are polo shirts and vice versa but the 

 

3. Country Club

 Talk about when to wear a polo shirt, and a country club will come readily to mind. After all, country clubs are synonymous with golf, and polo shirts are the commonly acceptable apparel for most clubs. The majority of golf clubs have proposed golf outfits for male and female players both on the green and inside the clubhouse. You can obtain the particular dress code for each club on their website. 

Fancy and modern country club at night

 If the information is not readily available, you can never go wrong with cotton polo shirts or any other material type tucked into your pants. Even if you're only a visitor or at the clubhouse to dine, a tucked-in polo shirt with a collar is usually preferred. On sweltering days, polo shirts without sleeves are acceptable attire for women. Anything not mentioned above is probably not accepted.

 

4. Business Casual Events

 There is no universal definition for business casual; raw has been a general style choice and expectation rest the gust will turn up nicely attired- just not plain conversational. A polo shirt paired with a blazer has always been a good selection for business everyday affairs. To maintain a professional look when attired in polo shirts, wearing them with slacks or khakis is advisable. Jeans and short skirts with polo shirts for business casual occasions are considered inappropriate.

 Most stylists recommend solid color polo shirts to give off a casual yet professional air. A few accessories to top off the look wouldn't hurt.

 

5. For a Job Interview 

 Years ago, wearing a polo shirt to a job interview would be like committing a crime. Nowadays, with the shift in work culture, many companies allow their workers even to wear t-shirts. However, for the first time impression, wearing a jacket over the polo shirt is the right choice. No matter how casual a job setting is, dressing a notch above the typical work setting gives off an air of professionalism. It also shows the prospective boss that you take the job seriously and dress up if the need arises later.

 

 Overall, for an informal atmosphere, blending your polo shirt with chinos, jackets, and sneakers is a look that is always in style. Switch the sneakers for shoes when business casual is required and the leather jacket for a blazer.

Packing for Capri

Depending on the types of activities you plan to do, you will need various types of clothing. 

 

  

Men and Women

When it comes to footwear, you will want a selection. Good sturdy shoes for hiking and walking around town and seeing the sights. 

Something dressy for going out to dinner or dancing. Something light and casual that you can slip on and off like an opened-back canvas or flip flops. You may want to buy yourself some handmade leather sandals while you are there, but bring along a pair that you have worn before, as the new ones may chafe and cause you pain.

 

Men

Tailor your wardrobe around your activities.

Shirts

Starting with a casual look, men can always use a few T-shirts. Casual T-shirts in cotton are the perfect choice. They are relaxed and comfortable and wash up easily.

Pants

Men should take a few pairs of durable, well-made shorts. You will need them for sightseeing and hiking around the island. You can wear them all day, and they can be worn with a T-shirt or a button-down shirt. 

Remember to pack long pants too. A pair of dungarees or blue jeans can be useful as will dress pants. Unless there is a dry cleaning service at your hotel, you may want to consider something washable. 

Jackets and Sweaters

For the evenings, for the yacht, for your early morning walk, or just because you will be happy to have a nice sweater to wear. You can’t go wrong with a nice v-neck lightweight sweater

They go with jeans or dress pants, over a T-shirt or collared shirt and keep you warm and look great. Available in several colors.

In Search of Blue Water: 6 Pristine Waterscapes

A beach vacation is the dream, but don't settle for cloudy water mired with sand and other debris making it so you can't see your toes in ankle-deep water. If you are going to swim or snorkel, you want that pristine blue water that you see in pictures. For all the filters and various exposure tweaking, there are some places around the world where the photographs don't lie. If you are in search of blue water, let these magnificent waterscapes permeate your dreams.

 

Exuma - The Bahamas

Plane view of Exuma, Bahamas

While many of the biggest islands in the Bahamas are over-developed resort monstrosities, the great thing about this Caribbean escape is that you can easily slip away somewhere beautiful for a day. Exuma is small, tranquil, and features extraordinary privacy. With ample shallows and white sand bottoms, the water looks brighter and bluer than the sky itself at times.

To Sua Ocean Trench - Samoa

Samoa waters

While the Yucatan Peninsula is famous for them, it is not the only place in the world with cenotes. One of the most beautiful cenotes in the world is hidden in Samoa and is the perfect place for a dip during the occasionally oppressive heat. Popular with locals and visitors alike, the To Sua Ocean Trench features cliffs (and a ladder to climb back up) for an unforgettable daring dive into crystal clear waters.

Cayos Cochinos - Honduras

Cayos Cochinos off the coast of Honduras is part of the second largest reef region in the world. However, unlike the Great Barrier Reef in Australia that is rapidly bleaching, the coral reefs around Cochinos are home to one of the healthiest marine environments due in no small part to the pure, clean water. With sparse vegetation on the island, the white sand beach life rules while the snorkeling in the water is an awe-inspiring experience.

Peyto Lake - Canada

Not all blue water locales have to be near a sun-soaked beach. In fact, some of the bluest waters in the world come from cold climates, as is the case with Peyto Lake in Alberta's Banff National Park. Fed by glaciers, the water itself is chilly, but the turquoise color created by the clear water mixed with what is referred to as "rock flour" lights up the surrounding amalgamation of forest and mountains.

Bora Bora

Bora Bora blue waters

There is a reason everyone wants to go to Bora Bora, and it's because it really is as amazing as it is in the pictures. Famous from its clear waters as well as the luxurious-looking bungalows that are perched just above the waves, it is a dream vacation destination for many.  While you may have to endure a waiting list to get your dream reservation, the prospect of waking up to only a view of vibrant blue water each morning of your trip is worth the wait.

Belo Sur Mer - Madagascar

Madagascar waters

If you want to view a beautiful waterscape that few have ever experienced, then you need to get on a plane to Madagascar right now. As an oft-forgotten place by travellers you will have the beautiful coral reefs, clear waters, and silky white sand all to yourself as the occasional local fisherman paddles right on past you in deeper waters. It is truly a place where the simple pleasures rule each day, but if you want to experience mater that feels like it is all your own, Belo Sur Mer can provide.

Beautiful beaches and unforgettable blue water will make your vacation a treasure. However, beautiful waterscapes beg to be accented by the people who visit them. To learn how your clothes can make your visit to some of these world-class waterscapes unforgettable to everyone who sees you, check out our blogs.

What to Wear to a Trip to Big Island, Hawaii - Packing List for Men

A trip to Hawaii should be on everyone’s to-do list. The big island has so much to do and see. As you make up your list of things to do, you will need to pack the right clothing to suit these activities. 

Whether you prefer to be very active or would rather just lounge around the pool or the beach, you need comfortable clothing. Here is our list for the men and what they may need to take with them.


Clothes For Men in Hawaii 

It’s always wise to have a variety of clothing items to suit all occasions.


Swimming

No trip to Hawaii would be complete without a trip to the beach. Whether you are surfing, swimming, or simply relaxing, you need a good pair of swimming trunks. 

You should pack a few pairs, as you need a back-up pair when one pair is wet. You may want to buy a few different styles, as well. Longer ones are better for surfing and smaller ones are more suitable for swimming and getting that perfect tan. 


Tee Shirts

You will want to take along several t-shirts for your trip. T-shirts are so versatile. You can wear them to the beach, as a cover after swimming, with long pants, with shorts, in the water, absolutely everywhere.

These Smart Casual Cotton T-shirts are ideal for a trip to the Big Island. You can even slip a dress jacket over top for a classier look if you are going to a club or out for dinner. Get a few in a variety of colors. 


Shirts

A few long-sleeved shirts will come in handy. They are perfect over a t-shirt, with long pants for going dancing or out for dinner. They look great tucked in or out and they go with shorts, as well.


These slim fit spread collar linen shirts are perfect for the heat and for later when it colls down in the evening. Perfect on their own, with a dress jacket or without, you can choose from a lot of different colors. 


Polo Shirts

Polo shirts are another excellent choice to take to Hawaii. They are a bit dressier than a regular T-shirt but still comfortable and casual. Perfect for sightseeing, going for lunch, a few rounds of golf, or drinks in the open lounge.


These slim-fit stretch pique polo shirts are all made of soft cotton with a spread collar and short sleeves. Pick from all your favorite colors to wear all day, under your suit jacket or out shopping. 


Sweaters

A light sweater will be welcome. Take it with you out on a boat, fishing, or sailing. Slip it on in the evening when the sun goes down or if you encounter some bad weather. 


This V-neck lightweight cotton sweater is the perfect choice. Not too heavy or bulky, it’s perfect for cooler summer evenings, walking along the beach at night, or just sitting outside with friends after dinner.


Jackets

If you plan on some evening activities or hiring a boat, you will want to take a jacket along. This pique cotton bomber jacket will get plenty of use. Lightweight and stylish, it has pockets and ribbed cuffs and waistband. 


You may want to consider taking a dress jacket along. It is nice for going out to dinner or just adding a bit of class to your evening outfit. 


Shorts

You will want to take along shorts. Pick something loose-fitting and comfortable. Pockets are a good idea so you have someplace to keep your belongings. 

Shorts with zippered or buttoned pockets could help you secure your personal items, like keys, wallet, and watch. You may want to find a few different styles of shorts. 

Some will be better for walking around and seeing the sights while others will be more suitable for the beach, around the pool or golf. 


Pants

You will want to take a few pairs of long pants, as well. Khakis or cotton or linen pants are nice in the heat. They are often dressy enough for going out but casual enough for golf, the beach, or the pool. 

Dress pants are often needed. Many golf clubs have dress codes, as do restaurants and some night clubs.

Jeans might also come in handy, for those who are more adventurous. Hiking, horseback riding, motorcycles, and other activities where you might get scratched or you need your legs protected. 


Footwear

You will need a sandal or flip flop type of shoe, plus a sneaker and some dress shoes. If you plan on hiking, make sure you have shoes or boots that won’t make your feet hurt. That would put a real damper on your Hawaiian vacation. Extra socks will also get used.

Mexican Riviera Packing List 2020

With the glorious summer season beckoning around the corner, it’s time to start planning your Mexican Riviera getaway. Even now you can hear the waves crashing in the distance and taste the salty poolside margarita.

In the Riviera spirit, “Salud!”

While the trip logistics seem to all fall together, there's one thing that always marks the last, and most trying, step: addressing your packing list and settling on what to wear. Regardless if you are venturing out on a well-deserved cruise or soaking in the rays from your favorite beachside resort, here is your complete style guide for the Mexican Riviera.


Enjoy the Casual Slow Pace


Things slow down south of the border, especially in Riviera cities such as Puerto Vallarta, Cancun, and Playa Del Carmen. Casual attire prevails in the daytime unless you opt for an afternoon lounging at the beach. Even then, a stylish cover up can easily pass for a fashionable way to spend the day.

For her, consider:

• Summer dresses;
• Shorts, a skirt and a pair of pants;
• Short sleeve shirts and/or sleeveless tops;
• Swimwear and cover-up.

 



 




For him, consider:
 

Polo shirts or t-shirts; • 
Long sleeve shirt or sweater;• 
Shorts and a pair of pant; • 
Swimwear. • 

  

 


Focus on interchangeable pairings to minimizing your suitcase while maximizing your style.



Go Bold for Colors

Red cotton sweater for women

Following a winter hibernating in neutral tones, it’s time to again embrace the colorful attire tailor-made for the beach. After all, these regions inspired tropical color palettes such as corals and turquoises.

Feel free to mix a white top with bold vibrant shorts, or vice versa. This works for both men and women.




 

 

Embrace the Light Layers

Shed off those bulky winter layers in favor of light layers. Time to savor the golden rays you’ve been anticipating all year.

When slimming down, plan to layer for cooling temperatures in the mornings and evenings. You want to welcome the idea of a moonlit beach stroll. A light, yet colorful, sweater or long-sleeve button-up keeps the cool ocean breeze at bay. Add a pair of jeans or lightweight pants for cooler evenings.


Swimwear + Cover-ups 



With the swim up bar commonplace throughout the Riviera, you might find yourself spending entire days poolside. It's common for women to consider two swimsuits, one for sunbathing and one for water activities.

Stylish and fashionista Deborah Boland recommends ladies put as much thought into their cover up as their swimsuit. Opting for one with a little “glam” will have you feeling sexy and confident on the beach.

In lieu of formal cover up, men can pair their swim trunks with a casual button up for that classic European beachside look.








 

 

 

 

A Dash of Formal Flair


While we dream of relaxing on the beach or sailing into the sunset, come nighttime you will want to add a dash of pizazz. From spending the evening dancing to enjoying a formal dinner, it's important to always include at least one elegant outfit.

Evening and formal restaurant dress codes vary by resort or cruise. Browse their website to make sure you pack accordingly.

• For her, a cocktail dress, chic skirt with a blouse or a pantsuit can easily do the trick.
Travel Fashion Girl recommends taking advantage of the new Maxi dress styles to optimize your outfits.

• For gentlemen, options vary depending on the dress code. Some venues welcome khakis with a sleek button up while others prefer a jacket or even a tuxedo.


The Final Touches


Now spice up your wardrobe with a few minor accessories. To the ladies, adorn the classic oversized beach hat and stylish shades. Embrace the casual atmosphere and keep jewelry to a minimum. Traveling fashionista Krystal Bick captures the atmosphere perfectly.

 For the gentlemen, don’t be afraid to try out a hat of your own. Add an elegant, and preferably waterproof, watch to the lineup to give you the freedom to truly disconnect.

Depending on the time of year, add a light rain jacket or umbrella to ward off the rainy season.

Plan Your Activities


From taking in 18 on the golf course to exploring the nearby ruins to shopping at the nearest market, visiting the Riviera gives you a plethora of activates to choose from.
That doesn’t even account for all the resort activities, which may include jet skiing, tennis, volleyball and more.

When you finalize your itinerary, spend a few minutes planning out your activities to pack activity specific attire.


Cover the Basics


Don’t forget to add your basics to the mix. From pajamas to intimates to fitness wear to belts, make sure your essentials make it in. As for footwear, comfortable sandals and flip-flops take priority. Depending on your excursions, a pair of closed toed shoes may be required.
