i love the colouring for autumn...

taking a stab at men's fall fashion

so tonight, i crawled into bed and told myself to finish this damn post once and for all. of course, after a couple hours catching up on the day's shows in paris, facebook, yet another #itgetsbetter video, i decided to bite the bullet. here's what i can tell you:

much that is in style for women this fall also goes for men.

camel, military, chunky knits, denim on denim.

stripes are always classic, whether it be a knit under a blazer or layered over top of a collared shirt.

don't be afraid of scarves! they add depth & creative flair to a basic outfit, 

as well as the obvious warmth factor.

i can't get enough of loafers.  of course, not all guys can pull off a leopard print loafer with purple socks, but i encourage you men to step out of your comfort zones. women will appreciate the effort, i assure you.

a classic polo goes a long way.  keep it ironed and don't let it fade. pay attention to the fit, and TRY THINGS ON. (this goes for all clothing.)  i know change rooms are a pain in the bum, but you will thank me later.

overcoats are another staple for fall.  whether you find yourself wearing shearling, trench, or something a little heavier, a coat will polish off an outfit and keep you looking classy.  

if anyone has any questions about their own fashion dilemmas, 

feel free to ask below... or follow me on twitter annnnd tweet me! 

 i warmly welcome any suggestions or criticisms. 

these comments inspire me to keep posting!
