Get the right haircut. A short, tidy but modern cut will give the impression that you mean business, even when at the beach.

Find the right suit for you and learn to love it. Getting comfortable in your skin is all well and good, but exuding comfort while in a suit gives the impression you’ve been here, done this. Feeling comfortable in a suit is the first step toward feeling comfortable as a gentleman. Get a suit custom-made just for you, if you can afford it.

Walk the walk in the right shoes. When it comes to shoes, splurge on a top-quality pair of wingtips or oxfords.

Tell time the right way. Sadly, it seems more and more people use their cell phones to tell time rather than a watch. They forget that a watch can add to your image as much as anything else. Select a classic style that you can wear for every occasion.

Learn to dress casual yet distinguished. Gentlemen need to relax, too. A polo shirt and dockers will do the trick. Add loafers and tennis socks for that understated but distinguished look. Think Daniel Craig in "Casino Royale."

Wear the appropriate attitude. Behaving like a gentleman is every bit as important as dressing like one. Use please, thank you and all the common niceties. Expand your vocabulary and knowledge by being well-read to exude the confidence and style of being a true gentleman.

Sounds good but I would have said a Polo shirt and Kahki pants, not any particular brand.

As for style, for sure you want to add in the Lose Cottons and Linen. This is a great late spring, summer and early fall look that goes great not only for evening affairs, but the beach as well as bbq's and shipping. Its almost perfect for mid summer house dinners with family and friends.
