History of the Polo Shirt
The term “polo shirt” has become synonymous with a collared shirt in many parts of the world. Although their name suggests that the shirts originated on the polo field, that isn’t the case. Tennis champion Rene Lacoste was actually the first to conceive the design that we have today.
He was tired of the thick, long-sleeved tennis shirts of his day, which led him to create a more lightweight and breathable model that has been adopted for several sports and casual wear as well. Most people think of polo shirts as being exclusively for men, but there are womens polo shirts as well.
Stay Festive and Chic this Holiday Season
The world of women’s fashion can be a tricky place to navigate. There’s an entire laundry list of rules, but they are all simply “understood.” There’s no rule book that explains all the ins and outs of fashion, and there never will be. Why? Because the rules are constantly changing.
The color red has proved particularly tricky for people to figure out in the past. When worn around Valentine’s Day or Christmas, the color can seem gimmicky. Still, it’s a wonderfully deep and rich color that can add a lot to your autumn and winter wardrobe. So how do you wear red without looking like you’re in a holiday-themed costume?
The key is to make it understated and luxurious. A red sweater-especially anything with designs like autumn leaves or Santa’s reindeer-can seem tacky. But if you wear a cowl neck sweater in red cashmere with pinstripe black slacks, that’s an entirely different feel.
