Casual dressing can sometimes be taken for granted, but there is a difference between dressing casually and just looking plain and sloppy. Sure, comfort is a major factor in casual wear, but style shouldn’t take a backseat when you decide to kick back and relax! You know how those perpetually chic people always look annoyingly good in just plain tees and shorts? How the casual slinging on of an intentionally wrinkled scarf can make an outfit look suddenly artsy and boho? Or how layering on a loose vest can make you look effortlessly stylish? Coming up with great casual outfits for the weekend shouldn’t take too much thought and planning. A big factor in why these people always look good is that they stock up on good stuff. How can you go wrong when everything you have in your closet looks good? You can literally just throw anything on and you will look great simply because, on their own, all the items you have look good.
That’s the whole point of Springfield’s clothes and accessories — looking good and being comfortable in what you’re wearing — having that elusive effortless style that few people understand and can execute. Their latest selection for fall/winter 2010 has something for every personality. Springfield Man has three collections: The Free Rider, an homage to American folk music with striped shorts and vintage-toned trousers, the Beat Thrill collection with slim silhouettes, dark colors and technical fabrics obviously inspired by the beatnik movement, and lastly, the New Varsity collection that is all about college style with its varsity jackets, Oxford shirts and trousers.
For Springfield Woman, there are two different looks to choose from: the Nearly ’90s collection with laidback casual clothing items of the era like Bermuda shorts, boxy tops and distressed, acid-washed jeans, and the Classic Rebel collection that combines classic items juxtaposed with biker-chic items like funky booties and biker jackets.
So whether it’s a casual Friday at work, or an impromptu trip out of town, casual dressing and even packing for your trips shouldn’t be a toss-up between comfort and style. You can have both.
