Thanks for all the suggestions, and so sorry for the tease, Claudia! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134716 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 21:43:57 +0000 elpgal 134716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second the reco for Taso Elba at Macy's and BR. Zara usually has some nice summer stuff - linen shorts and the like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134688 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 19:26:53 +0000 shana 134688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL, Claudia, that's exactly what I thought! I was going to suggest Alaska... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134684 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 19:01:08 +0000 Vani 134684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL @ claudia</p> <p>DH likes to shop at express, jcrew, BR and for casual polos and shorts at american eagle (he works from home). I like to pick up branded items for him from Marshall's and TJMaxx. I took him to Nordstroms a few times but he was pretty underwhelmed. I can't wait for Rack to open up here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134683 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:53:10 +0000 NK 134683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hee hee hee! It took me a second...</p> <p>Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I think I need to just get out of the box of places I normally shop, for DH, and myself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134682 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:46:17 +0000 Maya 134682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claudia, that is HILARIOUS! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134680 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:41:22 +0000 Claudia 134680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, this is a very, very disappointing thread. Jeez, NK, from the title of your topic, I thought I was going to find where I could get a man in his 30's. Bummer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134670 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 18:20:21 +0000 Queen Mum 134670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same problem- only my man is in his 40's and I'm not ready to dress him like an old fogey yet either He's not going to tolerate me dragging him all around the mall, so usually we just go to Kohl's, but the selection there can be so uninspiring. sigh.....<br /> I would love for Angie to do a "Guy on the Go" blog post If I could build a bonfire with his t-shirt collection I would </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134668 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:58:40 +0000 Jenava 134668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My husband also loves the Hugo Boss brand, but it can be very expensive. Unlike me, though, he doesn't shop that often so he's usually OK slurging on one or two items.<br /> Even at Nordstrom it's tough with the exact issue you described - it seems either too old, too young, or too *designer*. that being said, I think there is a brand called 1901 at Nordstrom that has some more toned-down items.</p> <p>Banana Republic and Club Monaco are also usually good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134664 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:34:17 +0000 Sarah 134664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My husband is turning 30 in just over a year. He has a fairly professional work environment. We shop (I say we because he wears whatever I buy him, haha) at:<br /> Nordstrom Rack (Hugo Boss polos and trousers, Ben Sherman button downs)<br /> Gap (casual things)<br /> Nordstrom (the occasional Zachary Prell shirt, yikes)<br /> Saks for Michael Kors<br /> JCrew in the summer (shorts and lighter button downs or graphic tees) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134662 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:20:12 +0000 Maya 134662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Club Monaco and Esprit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134661 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 17:08:40 +0000 chewyspaghetti 134661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about Gap and Banana Republic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134650 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:26:03 +0000 cciele 134650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My husband, who is in his mid-30s, likes the Alfani brand from Macys. It's somewhere in between (but on the more convervative end) the Marc Ecko/INC/younger trendy clothes, and the Ralph Lauren/Tommy Bahamas/Perry Ellis classic clothes. Another brand he likes from Macys is Tasso Elba. Calvin Klein might be another option.</p> <p>Good luck to your husband! Glad he is taking note of his own style. The same thing happened to my husband after I met with Angie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/where-to-shop-for-a-man-in-his-30s#post-134648 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:21:48 +0000 NK 134648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That probably sounds dumb, but where do I shop for a man in his 30's? My husband has taken notice of me trying to dress myself better and has asked me to help him incorporate more style into his wardrobe.</p> <p>The problem I have is that I just don't know where to shop.</p> <p>Ever since I've known him he's worn golf shirts and khakis, which you can find anywhere, right? He's bought them at Kohl's, JCPenney, off the tables at Costco, wherever. They didn't require much thought and they always fit.</p> <p>But now that he's started asking for clothing with more style and personality, I'm at a loss. I'm just having a hard time finding him some basic, stylish shirts and jeans that aren't over the top.</p> <p>We've tried department stores, but the 'young mens' section seems too young and trendy. He doesn't want skulls and crosses all over his graphic tees. Yet, the other departments seem too old with their golf and Hawaiian print shirts. </p> <p>I struggle with being age appropriate myself, but I didn't realize it's hard to find age appropriate clothing for men as well.</p> <p>Any suggestions? </p>
