maxcak's Top 10 Essentials (Part 2)...

Following up on Part 1 of my Top 10 Essentials list, here are 6 - 10.

6. French Cuff Dress Shirt - Everyone will need to wear a suit at some point in their life and with that you should always pair up the suit with a nice shirt underneath. Like most ppl, I'm not a huge fan of rocking dress shirts all the time but when I do I love rocking a nicely fitted French Cuff Dress Shirt. Nothing screams "007" more than a nice black suit with a sleek white dress shirt and cuff links. I recommend the H&M Slim Fit French Cuff, good fit better value.

7. New Era Fitted - At some point in your life you've owned a ball cap of some sort. I'm no exception and my hat of choice are the new era fitteds. Although many might suggest the fedora, bowler, paper boy or kangol, nothing beats a good ball cap. You can rock it in almost every outfit with the exception of formal attire and still be stylish without looking like a fool. An item that trancends generations, you have so many options in terms of colours and design, not to mention the different ways you can sport the hat as well. I recommend you're black/black (any sporting team or company) version cause it goes with everything!

8. Vans Authentic - I know most of you are probably thinking why I didn't put a pair of Jordans in this list but lets face it, the vans authentic are more versatile than your average Jordan. With a classic and simple look, you can sport these in almost every outfit as well. Rock them with khakis, jeans, shorts, you name it! The options are endless and the price makes it a more cost effective alternative to your other casual kicks.

9. iTouch/iPhone - Although I'm a BB guy, no one can deny the need to bump to some nice beats while enjoying the summer weather. Considering that Apple has a stronghold on the mp3 market, it's only fitting to include their mp3 giant on this list!

10. "Safari" Shirt - So I know most ppl are on the "Chambray" shirt since its the big thing right now but I'm still sticking with the "Safari" shirt from last season. At the end of the day its all about comfort and looks and who can deny the sleek and ruggedness of this item? Get it "Olive Drab" or "Flat Black"!
