From slim shorts to man-jewelry, Shana and Meagan discuss updating your guy’s style in honor of Father’s Day.
Here are Shana’s picks for guys this summer:
Clothes
- Everlane vneck tees – $15 (and they fit perfectly)
- Alternative Moroccan tee – this is Mike’s “date night” tee
- An upgraded polo – love the nerdy-cool vibe
- Striped v-neck tee – easiest-ever outfit upgrade
- Bonobos pants – the best fitting man-khakis
- Bonobos shorts – try these in a bright color, to go with all of his black, navy, and gray
- Even Target has great options for slim shorts – love the bright blue
Jewelry
- Pyrrha Talisman necklaces
- Me+Ro – here’s Mike’s necklace and bracelet
- Northskull – look for the skull bracelets
Shoes
- Van Ratas – the summer shoe for every guy – regardless of age (what to wear instead of flipflops)
- Classic Birks – always work (I personally love the new, softer footbed.)
- I think these greek-inspired man-sandals could work….
For more options, The Mom Edit has a Men’s Shop – and be sure to check out their Father’s Day Gift Guide!

Yes. Ok I’m only a few minutes into the podcast. But I’m married to an engineer who wears Polo and khakis Every. Day. And thinks it’s dressing up when he wears a short sleeve dress shirt. And then changes into windbreaker gym pants and tshirts to be comfortable. Too many years as a highschool/ college athlete I guess. He’s super handsome and stellar obviously. 😉 But a patterned Polo is about as risky as I can convince him to be. Oh and the plaid shorts he was sure were too weird? He gets complimented on them every time. He’s beginning to believe me when I tell him something is cool. 😉 I guess all things considered I’d rather him stay stellar and fabulous and a great husband and dad and just not worry so much about the cool factor. 😉

(He’s also 6’6″ and slim so major fit issues with pretty much any regular place)
