Just like women’s fashion, men’s fashion is likewise alive as evident with the many fashion shows by famous designers showcasing what is hot this fall. Since it is the start of the cold season, layering has become trendy and the choice of fabric is given much emphasis (the thicker and warmer, the better). The use of shearling as a lining on the collar of men’s jackets or coats, outerwear, gloves, and boots continue to be popular. Parka men’s jacket is also something that should be worn along with jeans, cardigan, and sneakers.

Wearing a double-breasted coat in colors like black, gray, navy, maroon, burgundy and other scarlet shades in the office is also trendy. A duffle coat in tan and neutral shades is appropriate for a more casual look. Another trend that has carried on from last summer is floral prints. Everywhere we see men wearing T-shirts, polo shirts, and sweaters with flower prints. The trendiest color for men’s fashion this fall is orange, from bright acidic shades to subtle apricot hues. Orange outerwear like men’s sweaters, bombers, overcoats, and suits abound.

If you want to shop for the trendiest clothes this season, you can do so at East Dane.

The Balance of Comfort and Style

Now, we all love to be comfortable. At the end of the day, when you get home from work, you really just want to relax and enjoy yourself. In reality, though, you want to be comfortable all of the time, whether you’re going to work, meeting new singles through matchmaker services, checking or the bar and restaurant scene, or doing anything else around the city. However, at the same time, you need to look your best. Is it possible to find that balance between looking great and feeling comfortable, or do you have to choose one or the other?

There are a few things to keep in mind when thinking about fashion from this perspective. The first is that you’re absolutely going to feel more comfortable if you are wearing something that you know makes you look good. You know how other people are seeing you, and it gives you confidence like nothing else will. This helps you really relax and enjoy yourself. Make sure that you figure out what your personal sense of style is, what you think makes you look your very best, even if it does not seem like the most comfortable choice, and you’ll find that it actually makes you feel great in any setting.

Another thing to know is that many people actually wear clothes that don’t fit. Yes, they may have tried them on in the dressing room at the store, but this is what happens when people do not go to tailors and they all buy the same clothes, based on a generic set of sizes. Even something that they think fits may actually be too baggy or too tight. If you get tailored clothes that are true to your body type, that are actually designed for you, they’re going to be the most comfortable clothes you own. This is true even if you’re wearing something – like a suit – that you always thought was not comfortable. The truth may just be that you’ve never before worn a suit that really fit.

When you think about it like this, it’s easy to look great and be comfortable at the same time. It’s not like you have to choose between wearing a stunning new dress or a suit or a pair of sweatpants. You can find high-end clothing that makes you look incredible, but that fits so well that it keeps you comfortable, too.

Men’s fashion is again abuzz this time with trends for the autumn/fall season. Clothes, footwear, and accessories are becoming more and more stylish and chic, thanks to these trends. Floral prints was once solely a woman’s staple but over the last few years the trend has crossed into menswear at both designer and high street level. The trend which was very popular last summer, has carried on this season. Furthermore, layering and fabric choice is essential when preparing what to wear everyday since it’s colder. Designers continue to use shearling fabric as a lining for men’s boots, gloves, and outerwear and is also visible on the collar of a jacket or coat.

Figuring out what outerwear to don can be hard since something that you wear at an important business meeting might look too formal on a casual outing. For the office, a neat double-breasted coat in black, navy blue, gray, burgundy, maroon and scarlet shades, is a must. For a less formal look, a duffle coat in camel and neutral shades is great. Parka men’s jackets are likewise a staple and can be worn with your favorite jeans, cardigan, and sneakers. For that Britpop look, try throwing it on over a checked flannel shirt and straight-legged dark denim.

The trendiest color for men’s fashion this season is orange, from bright acidic shades to subtle apricot hues. It’s said to be the new black. It looks great combined with deeper shades like black and navy. Anywhere in the catwalk you’ll see orange outerwear – men’s sweaters, overcoats, roll necks, bombers, jackets, and suits.

A man’s outfit is not complete without a watch, no matter how simple his attire is since it is usually the only accessory that he wears. Nevertheless, the kind of watch a man wears reflects the kind of personality he has. An elegant man will never be caught with a cheap watch and instead only wear a luxurious timepiece such as a Victorinox Swiss Army watch. Having been around for decades, Victorinox has certainly made its mark and will continue to do so for many more years. Certainly everybody knows about the Swiss Army Knife which is their signature item. In keeping up with their ideal of being innovative, they have diversified their product range to include not just watches but also luggage, clothing, fragrances, and cutlery.
