Spring blues getting you down? Then maybe it’s time to ditch the bulky sweaters, dark-colored coats, and drab scarves of the season and spice up your wardrobe with something a little more tropical.

That’s right, this article is all about celebrating the brilliant and colorful Hawaiian shirt, as epitomized by the iconic fashion company Reyn Spooner. Sure, you won’t be able to brave a below-freezing day with these shirts alone, but there’s no reason why you can’t summer-fy your spring look with one of these floral beauties.

For something nautical, consider the A Following Sea model. Calming whites and blues put this bad boy squarely in the spring color palette, while the rolling ocean scape evokes a tranquil summer escape. Don this shirt under a chunky cardigan, and you’ll have everyone second-guessing what month it actually is.

Hou Pua Nui – $108

Large floral blooms make the Hou Pua Nui a standout in the Reyn Spooner collection, and will surely help weed out your springtime melancholy. We especially like the dark ink blue version of this shirt, which should work well with a variety of different seasonal separates.

Christmas Quilt – $39

The brand’s aptly named Christmas Quilt model puts a spin on the classic Hawaiian shirt. An interlocking wreath motif is playful yet subtle enough to be as appropriate in February as it is in July. Available in mint or green, we think this top would look fantastic as a cheeky add-on to a casual weekend outfit.

50th State Flower – $98

Outfitted with a series of hibiscus garlands, the 50th State Flower button-down is a great option for the guy in search of something ultra-traditional. In keeping with this classic vibe, the top also has a looser fit than some of the other options on this list, making it a cozy alternative for layering under sweaters or pullovers.

Wax London believes polos shouldn’t be boring
Get creative with your polos with Wax London

The men's polo is one of the staple shirts every man needs. It is something that has endured since the days of LaCoste wearing them on the tennis courts. Nowadays, it is the paramount piece for any man looking to wear a basic business casual wardrobe. Of course, that doesn't mean it has to be basic. Most men tend to opt for a solid golf polo and a pair of basic chinos, paired with a hybrid dress shoe. While that has led the polo down a path to gaining a dad shirt image, that doesn't mean it needs to stay there. Wax London is one of the leaders in making everyone, from celebrities to dads, look stylish, and they don't think a polo needs to be boring or basic. Instead, Wax London polos this season emphasize patterns, standing out, and being seen as a celebrity, even if you're just a dad.

As the April showers come to a close, the May flowers will be in full bloom. While that sounds like a great time of year (unless, of course, you struggle with allergies), there is one thing that stubbornly sticks around this time of year, especially if you are north of the Mason-Dixon Line, and that is the cold snaps. The unpredictability of the spring means you are bound to have those days where you are a bit chilly in the morning and a little warm in the afternoon. The best way to combat this little problem is with the subtle art of layering. UNTUCKit is known for creating some of the most comfortable shirts of the last decade and a half, and they have released a spring collection that makes layering the simplest it's ever been.
