August is officially here but that doesn’t mean the summer is over just yet. So let’s make the most of the long summer evenings by enjoying the great outdoors with a summer evening BBQ. At Hanley & Co we have a wide variety of smart casual looks which are perfect for summer evening events.
Polo shirts
Polo shirts are a must all year round. They can be worn on their own in the daytime when the day is at its warmest or layered with knitwear or sweaters when the temperature drops in the evening. They are very versatile pieces that can be dressed up or dressed down depending on what type of event you are attending. This polo shirt by A Fish Named Fred is perfect for a summer BBQ as the colour is fresh and playful which is very fitting for summer.
Chinos
Chinos are a wardrobe staple as they are so easy to wear. They are more dressy than wearing jeans but are comfortable and light which makes it easy for them to be worn in the warmer weather. They can be styled more casually by being paired with a polo shirt and trainers for a more low key event or styled with a shirt and blazer when going to a more formal occasion. Our chinos come in a variety of styles and colours. Grey chinos are always a popular choice as they are neutral and can be styled in several different ways. Check out our full collection here.
Trainers
When attending a summer BBQ, comfort is key. This is why we recommend finishing your outfit off with a pair of trainers like these ones by Gant Footwear. Wearing a pair of designer or branded footwear such as Gant makes you feel that bit more dressy than wearing your regular sports branded trainers.
