Goodbye gray skies and winter winds! Spring is in the air, and that means it’s time to lighten up. Like an admirable piece of architecture, every great masculine wardrobe needs a solid foundation (a timeless suit, flat-front trousers, blazer, white oxford shirt), but this season’s relaxed approach to dressing allows one to think outside the box and take some risks.

In our Blackberry-based world, we could all use a chance to relax a little, but the style-conscious man takes pride in how he presents himself, and these six spring essentials will take him from work to play with requisite ease and sophistication.
PLAID MADNESS | Stay a stride ahead by pairing plaids and checks with basics. The Madras shirt makes a stylish statement (find some of the best by Thom Browne, Burkman Bros, Etro, and Steven Alan at Barneys New York at NorthPark Center). “This is the perfect season for a tie update, and there is no better way to remake a classic men's staple than in linen or cotton madras,” says Wooster. Shop Southern favorites by Billy Reid, new at Nordstrom NorthPark this season, or for a truly unique look go custom.
