Guys it is summer now and I have never had a fashionable summer. This is my first summer where I have actually cared how I look and I have been dressing really preppy lately and it is nice. But here is a question: are embroidered shorts okay?
I want to say they are not but then part of me says they are. Help me.
Lines:
Post an example, because I don't really know what kind of embroidered shorts you're talking about.
Gene - awesome jacket, awesome color. Two thumbs up.

Ballard:
Good alternatives to shorts if you're going for preppy and well-put-together are slim fit capris (3/4 length pants with drawstring legs) and slacks or chinos rolled up to mid-calf or a bit below the knee (this works for jeans too). Bermuda shorts and a button up are cool if you are secure enough to pull it off (although looking even more like an English school boy is probably not something you should aim for).
Invest in some Topsiders and you're set for summer prep.
As for embroidered shorts, that's tricky.
Personally, I like them, but they're pretty popular with douchebags. Make your own judgement call. If you go for it, get them in navy with white embroidery or something and not in that nasty beige color.
