From Daniel Billett, your Guide to Men's Fashion / Grooming
from Daniel Billett I was out to breakfast with some friends and they were telling me about their upcoming vacation to Hawaii. Then I had dinner with another friend who was telling me about his upcoming trip to Mexico. It occurred to me that vacation season is upon us, especially since spring is a great time to hit sunny destinations that might be too hot in mid-summer. Folks will certainly be thinking about shorts, swim trunks, flip flops, sunscreen and other assorted vacation gear. In fact, I picked up a new pair of flip flops just last weekend simply in anticipation of sunny weather.

Top Picks in Men's Shorts
It wasn't until around World War II, when many soldiers were in tropical locations, did adult men begin to wear shorts. Before then, guys had to endure the summer in long pants. Thankfully those days are over and now shorts are a wardrobe mainstay no matter where you might live. Shorts don't have to be dull either. Aside from plain colors and styles, they come in fun prints such as plaids.

Top Picks in Men's Thongs / Flip Flops
I buy at least a couple of pairs of flip flops every spring because I love to wear them and get lots of use out of them. In leather they look great with a favorite pair of jeans and can be worn into the evening on those warm summer nights. They are the ultimate summer item.

Favorite Men's Swim Trunks and Board Shorts
I look forward to treating myself to a new swimsuit or two every spring and summer (sometimes it's the simple things in life). This is an area where you can really express yourself with fun prints and colors. There are many swim suit choices out there, so check out my top picks in swim trunks and board shorts for men.

The Perfect Tank
This really inexpensive tank by Old Navy is the perfect accompanyment to board shorts and flip flops when heading to the beach or pool. It comes in eleven colors. Buy Direct
