5 Things Every Guy Needs in His Closet

Shirt: Slim Fit Floral Button Down, also love this one | Pants: Lennox Slim Fit Twill Pants, more colors here | Shoes: Bermuda Penny Loafer

As we’ve gotten older, Rob’s style has evolved so much since his frat boy days when I first met him. No longer is his closet filled with oversize shirts, baggy shorts and sneakers only. He’s branched out so much and I think he looks great. Okay, maybe I’m partial, but his style is light years better than what it was in college—love you either way babe!

He wore this outfit to dinner last week, and when he walked downstairs I was impressed! Like I said, he’s really stepped up his game! We ate dinner with friends at little restaurant by our house and then went to watch one of his friend’s bands play at a local bar. It was so fun, but honestly, it was the latest I’ve stayed out in a long time, haha!

Today, we’re heading to Florida for a long weekend trip to celebrate both our three year wedding anniversary and babymoon. I honestly can’t believe we’ve been married for three years, it’s flown by (yesterday was our real anniversary!) and I also can’t believe that I’m 25 weeks into my pregnancy—when did that happen?! It’s pretty crazy that this will be our last trip together before we’re a family of three! I’m so looking forward to sitting on the beach and relaxing. If you’ve been to Amelia Island and have any suggestions, please share!

Anyway, I got off topic a bit, but after chatting with Rob, we rounded up some of the essential pieces every guy should have in his closet. Does your guy have these in his closet? What’s his go-to style?

BTW, his and hers: weekends together, and his & hers: travel style.

Suit & Sport Coat

Whether it’s work or for the occasional wedding, every guy needs a well-fitting suit. If you only have one, make sure it’s versatile from season to season.

Casual Button Downs

Rob wears these constantly. He prefers the ones that are non-iron and don’t need dry cleaning!

Good Pair of Jeans

When I say a good pair, I mean a nice pair that you can dress up if you need to. Make sure they fit your guys’ body type too!

Shoes, Other than Sneakers

Sneakers are a must, but your guy needs other casual pairs too. During the summer, Rob wears loafers a lot and in the winter, boots!

Winter Coat

A puffy coat is a must-have if you’re in a cold city, but a nice winter coat is essential too!

Workout Gear

Rob is kind of obsessed with activewear. He played several sports growing up and in college and is still super active and loves having nice looking gear. These are some of his favorites.
