Say what you want about summer fashion but it’s not as easy as it seems. Trying to be effortlessly chic as a guy can sometimes have you looking like a hot mess! But worry no more, I’ve literally (like, literally) put together the go to summer out fit.

Some items that make the ultimate one hit (outfit) wonder – Killer shades to creep on girls without being creepy. A classic fitted hat to keep your dome cool. Travel bag to keep in the car for your toiletries (think gum, toothbrush, sunscreen etc). Warm fuzzy sweater from Opening Ceremony to lend to that cute girl you just met at the beach. And a bright green wallet to keep your green!

Oh, and ice cream. Yeah, girls like guys that like ice cream.

Michael Kors Tristan aviators $135 / Yankees hat $37 / Old Navy cargo shorts $25 / Rodarte sweatshirt $155 / The Hundreds Lou bag $34 / Tod’s Charly bracelet $225 / Crooks & Castles stripe tank $44 / Birkenstock sandals $140 / Comme Des Garcons wallet $227

It’s casual, it’s cool.. it’s everything you want to be. Or what I want you to be at least A little summer inspiration for all you guys out there. And for you ladies, I’ll be back next week to put together your perfect outfit. Until then, catch me here, and if I’m not there, I’m probably kickin’ it here. Ciao papi.

This boring, tacky outfit costs $1,022, includes cargo shorts from Old Navy, and looks exactly like what any random teenager on the beach is wearing. No thx.

dude I have over $1500 worth of clothes and wallet, glasses etc on me. I don’t look like a runway model. It’s mens fashion, in the summer. Nothing to reinvent.

This expensive outfit is pretty bad. Thong like sandals?? Gross feel to the inside of the toe. If you’re a guy wearing sandal/thongs you might as well wear an actual thong. Do a better job, writer.

Please note.. Im not a hater and regular check out your column… But this times its ridic!!

This is an outfit appealing to selective crowd that on a regular basis does the “runs” out and about metro van.. and Today they had nothing lined up but to hang out at English Bay wearing this garbage.

If you need help in the future choosing a much more relevant outfit for guys in the summer.. Contact me.

I wish vancitybuzz had a blogger/stylist that had better taste in fashion, this writer seems a little amature without much knowledge or research of what’s currently relevant. I could spend $1000 at Zara and look like a million bucks. Please take this as constructive advice.

Sloppy frat boy at best. I don’t think anyone can condone cargo shorts in 2012.

Worst. Outfit. Ever.

Seriously? This outfit is boring at best. Also, who wears a sweater in the summer? No thanks.

threadless.com - spend $200 there and you’ll look better and have money left over to buy a wallet.

Hahaha, 3% of humans can recognize satire when they see it. The rest of them usually leave comments.

Oh, by the way, you didn’t include the ice cream in the price breakdown. How much is this outfit REALLY going to cost?

Not perfect in my opinion, the only thing i like from the above outfit is the Old Navy cargo shorts.
