SWISS ARMY SHIRT ( 1 shirt, 4 looks, fast and easy)

 Remember the days when your phone could only make  calls? Well if you don't I'm sure there's an app for that. The 21st century seems obsessed with multi-faceted products. So if your cereal doesn't also clear up your acne and come with a flurry of new Instagram filters, chances are it's staying on the shelves. In fashion, clothing with multiple uses built in aren't always the best choices. I have one word for you, CARGO PANTS. Actually I have one more, SKORTS. However a seemingly simple article of clothing isn't a one trick pony. Take a straight forward men's shirt for instance. At first glance you just see a shirt, but to my refined eye I see a pony who is just full of tricks. The following 4 looks are comprised of only 4 garments. If that math doesn't sound impressive most looks need 2-3 different pieces. So technically I am giving you 50% more fashion. So you're welcome and enjoy...

THE PIECE: Banded collar men's shirt H&M

THE CLASSIC: Straight forward, tucked into a pair of dress slacks, coupled with a red belt for fun.                                                                                        
Trousers/Belt, American Apparel
                                                                                                                                                                                                          

                             

                                                                             
                                                         THE CASUAL: This look translates the same shirt into
                                           a more low key  outfit. Paired with  denim  and a striped T-Shirt for depth.
                                  Jeans, Levi's/ T-Shirt, H&M
                                                                          

THE RELAXED: Roll up the sleeves, lose the T-Shirt and keep the jeans.
 This look is a great meeting point between the Classic and The Casual .

THE SUSPENDERS: This look is more trend specific, here the sleeves are rolled up higher
         the shirt is tucked into the jeans and fastened up to the top button.
                  Add suspenders and voila.              
     Suspenders, H&M
