We once established that a man can wear one suit with different looks and report to office daily with hardly anyone noticing.

We explored all options including business, formal and smart casual. But we were not done yet. With one suit, provided it is black, navy blue or dark grey, you can explore more creative ways of wearing it daily with different looks.

This time, I will look at what folks would consider extreme, but remember we are talking classy, not conformist. Have you ever tried a polo T-shirt in a suit?

Well, with the current sweltering heat, it’s worth trying out. Get a breathable short-sleeved polo or plain-v neck T-shirt, most preferably white. You will like the blend with either a black or navy blue suit.

Ensure you tuck in the T-shirt while closing the upper button. This is a super casual look that’s great for a fun date, a music concert in a VIP section or a casual Friday at work.

You appear relaxed; so, the shoes don’t have to be very formal. The type of pocket square is a matter of preference, but the floral or high-flowered will do for the colour pattern you may wish to spew. 

The socks are optional because there is not break in the pants. Considering our dusty roads, however, it’s only proper for a dignified man to wear a pair of socks because you don’t want caking between your toes that would create a bad look and smell off your feet.

The black suit is probably one that looks good on everyone. Dressed up formally – or dressed down casually – a black suit bears the universal code of refinement. As such, every man should own one. No exceptions!

But to achieve yet another casual outlook in this suit, you can ‘break it down’— wear the jacket on different pairs of trousers, from jeans to slacks. Just ensure the jacket doesn’t resemble the trousers. 

For the shoes, let your imagination reign. You can choose from formal oxfords to whole cut, cap toe oxfords, brogues, semi-brogues and wingtips.

Now you will agree with me that a suit is undoubtedly a stable piece of clothing every man must have in his wardrobe. However, as you continue to live and rely on your single suit, you are going to have more wear-and-tear because you are wearing it frequently. 

Well, it’s an opportunity cost: wear the suit daily or buy more clothes at hugely- exorbitant prices.
