Geek chic is a male trend that is here to stay. Spice it up this summer by introducing a twist on this established trend. Inject this seasons must have colour blue – be it cobalt, navy or electric.

Team shorts with blazers and light weight shirts or if this British summer lets us down throw on a light knit jumper from your winter collection. Incorporate other key summer trends such as pastel colours and super short turned up shorts to give this trend a lift.

Celebrities that work this trend especially well are Ryan Gosling and Ed Westwick who champion this day to night. Both Ryan and Ed love to add thick framed glasses to any look, think Rayban for style inspiration. When the sun is shining choose Wayfarer shades in one of the many eye catching colour ways from the summer 12 collection.

Don’t forget to pull out a comb and fashion your hair in to a side part or add heights with a quiff to complete this slick look. These little touches will ensure you have this trend nailed and bang up to date for summer 2012.
