Boys at the school are quickly finding their spring and summer style as temperatures start to heat up. New staples have arisen in the men’s fashion world, and the boys have quickly caught on to the new trends.

Graphic t-shirts have always been around, but similar to the girls picking up on the old overall trend, graphic tees have started to become more and more popular at the high school. A few go-to stores for these iconic tees include American Eagle, PacSun and Hollister, to name a few. These graphic tees are especially popular around school, and it’s not uncommon to spot a few boys twinning by accident with one another.

Summer brings out the brightness in all of us, and it seems to be doing the same thing for boys’ fashion choices. Bright colors are all over the school, whether it be neon graphic t-shirts or brightly colored shorts. Summer plaids are a great choice, especially when you add in the bright summer colors such as mint or pink.

The bright colors have worked their way into the boys’ shoe choices at the school as well. Bright white shoes and neon colors are being seen throughout the hallways just in time for the warmer weather.

Vineyard Vines is here to stay. Boys are bringing back the iconic whale shirts and bright shorts from this coveted brand.
