Frugal fashions for your father

As Mother’s Day has passed, it is now time to celebrate the other half that made your life possible – your dad. This year, forget about power tools and beer; go with something practical; something fashionable!

Ties:

*Express Silk Paisley Tie $40
You can never go wrong with a tie. Every guy needs at least one tie in his life. This year, give your dad the hottest neck accessory he has ever had! Ties range in price but as we continue to trek through this rescission, you can shop JCPenny, Urban Outfitters (for skinny ties) and Express for low to moderately priced, good-looking ties.


Shoes:

*Sperry Men's Authentic Canvas Boat Shoe $70
A lot of dads are not hip to what’s cool these days. Why not give your dad the little fashion push that he needs and hook him up with some fly footwear? As the summer is upon us, gift your dad with some boat shoes or canvas shoes. Guys with an eye for fashion know that these particular shoes are very in for the season, so your dad will appreciate you helping him look like the cool kids. Sperrys are a great brand for boat shoes. And get this! Urban Outfitters is running a promotion for canvas shoes – 2 for $30! Buy your dad a pair and save one for yourself!

Watch:

*Fossil Chronograph Black Dial Watch $115
Now-a-days, people just look at their phones to find out the time, but having a watch can bring class to any ensemble. For your father, surprise him with a great time piece. Although watches can get pricy, there are some places that offer some affordable options. Take Fossil for example; and even Macy’s has some choices at decent prices.
