A few weeks ago David Archuleta was voted the most fashionable male American Idol by readers of Men's Fashion Deals (and some very loyal fans). Today we are featuring David in a celebrity look feature. His look at the recent ALMA awards was spot on. Archuleta pulled of a great slim fitting suit with a bit of shine, layered it with a grey v-neck sweater, and a super skinny black tie. This is a great look. Men's skinny ties are all the rage right now as they should be. David pulls it off nicely. The hint of shine in the suit is great as well. It takes the classic slim-fitting suit and adds a little pop and edge to the look. Want this look for less than he probably spent on it? Here are some ideas of quality pieces to help you created David Archuleta's fashionable look without spending designer prices.
