Look No. 3: Linen Pant and T-Shirt:

Women prefer men to wear a T-shirt and jeans. Jeans can get a little hot in the summer so Cargo suggest pairing a T-shirt and linen pants. Simple is best. Remember that the pants must be worn with something underneath, white briefs or boxer-briefs. This look is perfect for a weekend evening out at the Hamptons, Malibu, etc.

Steal: On Model No.1
H & M $30
American Apparel long sleeved T-shirt $20
Havaiana flip-flops $12

Grand Total: $62

Splurge: On Model No.2
Tommy Hilfiger Pant $125
Theory long-sleeved T-shirt $65
Pirelli flip-flops $70

Grand Total: $260

What's the Difference? The difference in these two looks is the finishing. With the pants, quality linen is going to be very smooth and fluid. The cheaper pant is a linen-cotton blend and slightly more structured. For the T-shirts, the Theory shirt has finished/hidden seams; it is softer, and has lycra for stretch so elbows won't bag out after wear.
