Comfort and professional! Two words that don’t seem like they’d go together. For some odd reason, most people are under the assumption that business casual, or professional clothing, has to be uncomfortable and stuffy.

For this post, Kris shows us how to dress professionally in the most casual way possible.

He states, “This look is a great casual-formal outfit. The blazer tops off the professional look while the sweater screams business casual. Wear this outfit to work and go straight out for happy hour while looking good and staying comfortable!”

To add that extra flair to his blazer, Kris added his very own custom pocket square and lapel pin. The pocket square, which was created from hand sewn vintage fabrics, was perfectly paired with the lapel pin, made of silk flowers and a gold kilt pin. Kris agrees, “Both of these items, alone or together, adds that finishing  touch that every blazer needs.”

In finishing off this look, Kris decided to add a debonair flair with his dark brown, double monk strap dress shoes.  “The dapper man should ALWAYS own a dark, brown dress shoe and a double monk strap. In my personal opinion, monk straps compared to any other style of shoe screams, I know what I’m doing here!”

Indeed Kris, indeed.

So, how do you feel about this particular look?
