Sunday best: Handsome looks for Easter Sunday

(Men’s plaid shirts are on sale at Old Navy for $17.50).

Don’t let the ladies completely steal the Easter Sunday fashion show with their pastel dresses and big hats. This spring has lots of handsome looks for men, too: We’ve never seen soft purples look so manly (especially paired with hemlock green — a tip courtesy of the Pantone Color Institute). Shorts are hitting just above the knee with slimmer silhouettes and peppy patterns. And, bring on the dapper bow ties!
Here are a few style ideas for men this Easter — and for the spring season, in general.
- Check out our favorite bow, well, beau tie shop. Beau Ties Ltd of Vermont has a huge selection of bow ties that are perfect for this time of year. (You’ll find pastel seersucker bow ties that you can wear again at a derby party). For Easter, we’re keen on the painter bow tie — with cheerful, but classic, striping. They’ve also got boys bow ties in plaids and polka dots.
- Find spring deals at Old Navy. Need a button up or polo to go underneath your sports coat? Old Navy is having a big sale on spring styles, with polos starting at $12 and button-ups for $17.50. This soft purple plaid shirt is right on trend for spring 2014 and would pair great with a dark wash denim or khakis. We’ve also go our style spy eye on the blue plaid shirt. Stylists and fashion insiders says shades of blue — especially indigo — are majorly trending this spring and summer in menswear.

- Short weather. Maybe you’re the Easter Bunny’s assistant, helping oversee an egg hunt, or your church has a more laid-back dress code. Late April = shorts weather, and the fit of shorts this season are a little bit higher up on the knee. Give the Men’s Slim-Fit Twill Shorts from Old Navy a try. They’re on sale for $20 — and come in several different colors and prints, including a kitschy shark print or a cool camo. Our pick? This Twister Blue short that is a blend of blue and gray.
