January 7, 2019 By Dappered Team | Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. Also, we take your privacy rights seriously. Head here to learn more.

Last week we recognized the Best Affordable Style of 2018, focusing on the top products pumped out by the retail establishment. This week we’re taking a look back at the best (at least what WE consider the best) of what Dappered had to offer in 2018. Not trying to toot our own horn here. Consider this more of an exercise in recognizing what was popular with the Dappered readers, so we continue to create informative content in the New Year. And by the way, to those Dappered readers: thanks.

10 Men’s Style Essentials to have in Navy

A shopping list for those looking to (smartly) upgrade their gear in deep dark blue. Navy is one of, if not the most versatile color in the world of men’s style. Even if you’re not a huge fan, you likely have some navy in your wardrobe if you have a pair of dark wash denim. For the guy that is looking to create a sharp, versatile wardrobe, he can’t go wrong with navy.

 

Style Scenarios

Over the years, including just this past one, we’ve tackled a lot of style scenarios on Dappered. In 2018 the scenarios ranged from Santa’s duds (an annual tradition), to Contemporary Creative Business Casual (calling all tech workers), to a “How do you do fellow kids?” edition. Have an upcoming scenario in your life you’d like advice on? Just shoot an email to joe@dappered.com.
