The Men of Ralph Lauren

Ladies, the time for button-ups has arrived on campus and the old money and all-American look is winning the hearts of all this fall. We know that our girls have it covered, so here at The Edge, we are looking to the boys to encompass the class and timelessness that is Ralph Lauren. If you want to look chic and classic this fall, we have the perfect guide for you, boys.

Ralph Lauren is the quintessential brand for men of all ages. The logo, whether on a sweater, button-up or polo immediately elevates your look. While Ralph Lauren can be expensive, we prefer to call it an investment necessary for your closets. Besides, what girl doesn’t adore a man in Ralph Lauren?

As fall begins to transition to winter, you boys should start looking at sweaters. The sweater that is at the top of our list is the Iconic Flag Sweater in navy. This sweater encompasses the perfect all-American look and will let everyone know how classy you are. The American flag sweater took over TikTok in full swing last fall and has continued to stay in trend. It is the perfect investment piece as it is timeless. Sport it in the fall or even on a chilly summer day.

Now it’s important to know how to style sweaters, as they can be used in ways to say different things about your look. If you are going for just another fall or winter day look, then we suggest styling a button-up underneath in a different color. For example, a cream Ralph Lauren sweater with a navy symbol and a blue-collar underneath can be the perfect look. When it comes to sweaters in the fall, keep a color scheme in mind. Cream, white, navy, brown and black can be the perfect staples that will allow you to layer. Throw in a maroon sweater to show your Phoenix Pride!

A different way to use a sweater is a simple tie or drape around the shoulders. If you are looking for a look that screams old money and country club then this is perfect. Match yellow with blue, navy with white or white with cream, and add a pair of sunglasses. This is perfect for a casual or business setting and will make you look professional and very appealing.

There is nothing we love more than a button-up. All hail the white button-up, the look that always wins. The button-up is the classic men’s look that leaves all swooning. Whether you are going to a business meeting, presentation or a nice dinner, the button-up is essential and easy. The Striped Stretch Poplin Shirt is one we highly recommend. Buy it in shades of light blue/white, pink/white and emerald/white to add pops of bright color to your wardrobe. While the button-ups are more formal, they are on-trend and classy. Wear them under a sweater or a coat.

If you are not one for stripes, the white Garment-Dyed Oxford Shirt is a layering necessity. Every man needs a white button-up and it is the best thing for a man to wear. Keep it slightly unbuttoned on a boat ride or pair it with formal wear and you have yourself the old-money look. It adds a level of timelessness and maturity and the Ralph Lauren symbol seals the deal.

The final piece of this holy trinity is the polo shirt. It is not too dressy and is very casual. Some boys refer to them as the golfer shirts as they are ideal for preppy everyday wear. The polo in short or long sleeves is offered in a variety of colors and patterns. Collect and wear them to class or out and around campus. Replace the T-shirt with a handsome polo. Believe us boys, polo is the way to go. Wear them with khakis or jeans for a casual look and make sure not to button the polo all the way as you do not want to look formal. We recommend the Soft Cotton Polo Shirt in shades Carmel Pink, Office Blue, Refined Navy and White.

Allow us to guide you, boys. We at The Edge know what girls love and what is best. The Men of Ralph Lauren are stealing the show and you have the chance of updating your wardrobe. Remember in a world of Nike Techs, wear Ralph Lauren.

Have a timeless fall XOXO, The Edge.
