The less ambiguous older brother of “smart casual”. Sharp casual describes a man who rejects both the laziness of the roadman/athleisure aesthetic and the conservatism of dress codes which characterise coke-addled investment bankers.
I.e. someone who is permanently well dressed but also comfortable in their own skin. Often combines elements of the traditional lounge suit with more casual contemporary elements such as denim and workwear to create a clean cut, presentable and approachable aesthetic.
Jackets: slim fitting suit jacket/patterned blazer, Lewis leathers motorcycle jacket, traditional varsity letterman, Levi’s denim jacket, Harrington G9, Burberry trenchcoat, sheepskin flying jacket.
Trousers: Uniqlo, wrangler or Levi’s jeans, Ralph Lauren chinos or slim fitting suit trousers.
Jumpers: polo neck, crew neck or v neck in contrasting colours to jacket or trousers
Shirts: polo shirts, white tee shirts or cuffed office shirts.
Shoes: Converses, Jack Pascelles, Oxfords, Brogues, motorcycle boots, desert boots.
Accessories: eccentric cufflinks, silk ties, patterned scarfs, pocket squares, baker boy (winter) or Panama hat (summer).
Examples:
David Gandy, on his day off
Steve McQueen
Tom Hiddleston
Michael Caine
James Dean

On the day of the trial, Henry adopted a sharp-casual aesthetic, mistakenly thinking this might make the jury look more favourably upon his crime.

Get the Sharp-casualmug. A chill party or gathering, usually involving beef stew. A dry party - no alcohol UNLESS you're adding it to the stew and drinking the leftovers. Different than a business casual boil, which requires black pants and a different type of stew.

Get the casual drinkingmug. The outfit every guy wants to see you in. The one that says I’m here to chill but also here to party. Think short shorts and skinny Tops. Preferably showing boob and lower ass. The outfit you would have worn in college to a frat party but not to bring a frat boy home to your parents.
Hey girl I’m going to the Iota Eta Pie frat party and I wanna make the boys sweat without sweating myself. I’m thinking of dressing Slutty Casual.

Get the Slutty Casualmug. People that are ruining the industry. They believe that they are the high authority on video games and support either xbox or ps2 mainly.

Get the Casual Gamermug. when two people, who have absolutely no romantic feelings for each other, have sex just because they feel like it and want ass and then avoid the person when they see them the next day or act like nothing special happened
the kids at bronxville high school have casual sex because they are rich, immoral snobs who have a shitty football team
