7 essential pieces every man should have in his wardrobe.
Fashion is an important part of life, whether you realize it or not. Whether you’re heading to a crucial meeting or going on a first date, your outfit is the first thing people notice. So, what should you do? You might think about trying something trendy. However, you don’t have to wear something just because it’s popular.
The key to a great outfit is having a well-rounded wardrobe filled with stylish pieces. A good wardrobe should mix basic and trendy items that show your personality and suit different occasions. Not sure where to begin?
Here are 7 essential pieces every man should have in his wardrobe.
1.Dress and Casual Shirts

Dress and casual shirt.
Men’s shirts come in two main types: formal dress shirts and casual button-downs. A dress shirt usually has one pocket and minimal decoration, often in solid colors or stripes. These are more formal and typically worn under blazers.
Casual button-downs, on the other hand, come in various styles and patterns, often featuring double pockets and different collar styles. If you prefer a formal look, choose dress shirts; if you lean towards casual, opt for button-downs.
2. Non-Collared Casual Shirts.

Non collared casual shirt.
Non-collared shirts include Henleys and t-shirts. These are made from stretchy fabrics, so it’s important to find the right fit. If you’re older, stick to solid colors like black, white, maroon, navy, or dark green.
If you’re younger and love casual wear, graphic tees are a great choice. A V-neck can add a masculine touch, and you can pair these with nice trousers.
3. Jacket.
Jacket.
Every man should own at least one suit, one sports jacket, and one blazer. Are they the same? No, they are different types designed for different events. Suits are usually darker and suitable for work or formal events.
Sports jackets come in lighter colors and are made from more casual, textured fabrics. They are the most relaxed option and can be worn with jeans.
4. Coats.
Coat
You should have two overcoats: one that looks stylish and another that is practical. The practical coat will keep you warm on very cold days, whether at home or on vacation.
A good functional jacket, like a shell in a classic color such as black or tan, can be worn over your suits to shield them from rain. It also works well for layering.
5. Footwear.

Footwear
Footwear needs to be versatile. You should have casual sneakers, formal dress shoes, and dress boots for different occasions. For sneakers that can be worn with smart outfits, choose ones with a thin, delicate sole instead of a chunky one.
To stand out, opt for two-tone sneakers in neutral shades like brown and blue, which match well with everything. A navy suede sneaker pairs nicely with jeans. If you prefer casual styles, loafers are a good choice. For suits, classic formal dress shoes are essential.
6. A solid belt.

Belt
Every man needs a belt. A good belt can enhance an outfit. A solid belt is timeless and can be matched with various shirts, trousers, and shoes.
7. A black suit.

Black suit
There will always be occasions in life that require a black suit. In fact, there will be several. For this reason, a black suit is essential for any man’s wardrobe. It offers a classic and sophisticated look.
There you have it – these are 7 essential pieces every man should have in his wardrobe. Remember, fashion is about expressing yourself and feeling confident in what you wear.

Wizkid and Pharrell Raise the Bar for Male Fashion—and Possibly New Music
Is Wizkid hinting at new music? That’s the question his latest Instagram post has sparked. The images, captured alongside American musician, producer, and fashion designer Pharrell Williams, appeared without a caption, leaving fans to speculate. While it’s not confirmed whether new music is coming, the photos themselves highlight how both artists approach visual style.
Wizkid wears an all-black leather outfit, with a fitted biker jacket and tailored trousers that make an impression with their tailored fit. Pharrell Williams takes a different approach, pairing a satin bomber with wide-leg trousers that move freely, showing how fabric and cut shape his look. The black-and-white photos capture the textures, contrasts, and details of both outfits, making the differences between the two styles clear at a glance.

Wizkid’s all-black leather outfit maintains its sharp tailoring. A fitted biker-style jacket with a structured collar is paired with lace-up trousers and pointed boots. A chain necklace and tinted sunglasses add subtle details. The leather continues to define the outfit’s shape and clean lines, showing how careful cuts and material choices elevate the overall look.
Pharrell offers a contrasting approach. A satin bomber with graphic detail is paired with wide-leg trousers and solid sneakers, creating a relaxed shape that emphasizes movement and proportion. The satin introduces sheen, while the trousers provide balance through volume. Minimal accessories allow the focus to remain on the combination of cut, fabric, and shape.

Side by side, the photos show contrast between fitted leather and relaxed satin, structured lines and looser proportions, as well as different textures and volumes. Both looks demonstrate how fabric, fit, and design can define a look without relying on logos or branding.
Whether this collaboration signals new music or is solely a style moment, the images highlight contemporary approaches to menswear. They emphasize how tailored details, fabric choices, and proportions can make each outfit visually distinct, showcasing the thoughtful approach both Wizkid and Pharrell take toward their public image.

Oyindamola Nails an All-Denim Look With Edge

She wore a structured denim corset bodice in a light-wash blue. The corset is fitted and tight at the waist. It has visible denim designs: seams, panels and a repurposed denim waistband wrapped around her hips with a leather logo patch on it adding texture to the bodice. On top of the corset she wore a heavily distressed light-wash blue cropped denim jacket. The jacket is oversized with chest pockets, a wide collar and worn patches across the shoulders and front panels. It’s long-sleeved and it was rolled up a bit.

For the bottom, Damola wore a long mid-wash blue denim skirt with a thigh-high slit at the left side and a raw, unfinished hem that pools slightly at her feet adding a rough edge to the full outfit. She paired the look with a structured tote bag that matches her dress. She completed the look with a pair of denim pointed-toe heels that match the outfit.

Oyindamola accessorized her look with silver statement bangles on both wrists, a silver ring and a simple chain necklace. Her makeup was done by Ewatosin Makeovers and it was a soft-glam look with well-defined brows, neutral smokey eyes and glossy nude lips outlined with a darker line. Official flarehair styled her hair in a dark brown bob with flipped-out ends and a deep-side part that sweeps across her face.

Pieces are in different shades of blue, creating contrast.

Jackie Aina Wears Plunging Crystal Pink Suit to YSL Beauty Celebration
When Jackie Aina stepped out for the recent celebration hosted by Yves Saint Laurent Beauty, she arrived in a plunging crystal-embellished pink suit. She’s known for her sharp eye for beauty and branding.
The suit aligned with the brand’s identity and her perceived personality. Cut in a rich pink fabric, the color choice contrasted with her skin tone and the event’s evening setting. The blazer was tailored close to the body, with a deep plunging neckline exposing her midriff that replaced the need for an inner blouse or camisole. This design choice highlighted the craftsmanship of the suit and the crystal detailing that traced parts of the lapel and bodice.

Rather than scatter embellishments across the entire outfit, the crystals were placed strategically. The detailing of the jacket highlighted its shape and added texture without conflicting with the base fabric. Under event lighting, the stones created a soft shimmer that registered clearly in photos but still maintained its design.
The trousers followed the same tailored structure. High-waisted and fitted through the hips, they fell into a straight, slightly relaxed leg. With the blazer already detailed, the clean bottom made the look feel soft.

She opted for minimal jewellery, which allowed the crystal work to act as the primary accessory. Her earrings were delicate. She wore a Saint Laurent Amalia slingback pump. The pointed-toe structure of the heel gave off a sophisticated and classic look.
