According to the Vision Council of America, 42% of men in the US wear glasses. If you are one of those men and you haven't tried Warby Parker, stop what you're doing and check these guys out. For under a hundred schmeckles you can get a well-built, stylish pair of specks, which is hard to beat. These Wilkies have a more rectangular lens shape and are perfect for a rounded face. For those blessed with a strong jaw, they have plenty of rounder options, and with their try-on at home program you can be sure the pair you choose is the right one.

H&M Cotton T-shirt

Tis' the season of layering, and while we have been focusing on the warmer outer layers we felt it was time to give you a good option for underneath. This plain white cotton t-shirt from H&M has a wider neck, giving it a bit of personality compared to the normal crew or v-necks you are accustomed to. It's 100% cotton, and at a cheap price, meaning they are durable and you can buy a few without breaking the bank. A small investment to tie an outfit together.

Fit note: If you have a wider chest, be sure to go with a larger size as their cut is a bit more snug around the ribcage than most other brands.

We recently discovered the awesome and cost effective Etsy shop that is Desert Dust Men and haven't looked back. We have bought some of their other hand-made mens bracelets and love the way they look both with formal and leisure wear. So, if you are looking to add some edge to your suit game or casual attire without spending the 60+ dollars on mens accessories at J.Crew, give these guys a shot.
