Boys Boys Boys...

My male readers were looking for a post more related to them, so here we go! If I regularly blogged about male fashion I would keep this more specific, but honestly I'm just gonna spit out a bunch of things I love/hate things that men do when it comes to their style.  It's Monday so lets start with a positive.  A guy that can layer is a good man in my book.  How can I switch up this striped button up? Throw a crew or a slight-V neck sweater over it.  Make sure the sweater isn't so tight that the button up looks bunchy.  If you're looking for a casual outfit, a vintage looking work wear jacket is the perfect addition to your button up/sweater combo.
I consider the work wear jacket a must have in every man's closet.  It's a classy piece that caters to a wide range of styles.  Now let's talk about things a man should never do.  Short socks with dress pants. NO!!!!!! I don't need to explain this one just don't do it.  I will also call you out if I see you wearing white socks with black pants.  That's just lazy. The next thing I want to talk about is simple and cheesy but it's your best bet at dressing well.  Be yourself.  Yes fashion gives you chance to showcase different pieces of your personality, but not all in the same outfit.  For example, one of my classmates was wearing BKE's, cowboy boots, and a snap-back.  Pretty boy hipster cowboy isn't a thing, sorry. I apologize to all the Luke Bryan lovers out there but the tight pants need to go.  Please stop risking your chances of having children with these health hazardous jeans. Well, I'm sorry that was more of a small rant,
rather than fashion advice, but it is what it is! Have a super week!

Frocks for Fall

It sure did cool off quickly! You wont hear me complain after living in a house with no AC all summer!  New York fashion week was wonderful, and I'm about to tell you all the fashions you should bring to your closet! Although NY fashion week is showing spring collections, we can still bring some pieces and ideas into our fall and winter style.  Lets start with footwear :) Although I still wear them, I'm leaning towards short ankle boots rather then riding boots.  Fashion week showcased a lot of black, but every color is in.  A favorite part of fall for me is breaking out my suede ankle booties.

One of my absolute favorite trends for this season is fur (faux of course!).  You'll always see fur in the fall/winter season but this year their switching things up.  Designers are adding bright or pastel colors to their pieces giving it a new glamorous look. The number one color choice for fall is powder blue.  It's difficult wearing pastels in the fall, especially because we associate them with spring.  The perfect way to wear powder blue this fall is to pair it with navy. 

The two colors fit great together, and the navy keeps it from getting to "eastery".  As for patterns, plaid is the way to go this fall! If you're not new to plaid try wearing it in a different way.  If you're use to a classy plaid scarf, shake things up a bit and pair a baggy flannel blouse with skinnies and ankle boots. Hope you enjoyed this,  have a lovely week :)
