10 FALL FASHION OUTFITS THAT’LL MAKE YOU TURN HEADS

When the leaves start to change and that cool breeze hits, it’s pretty apparent that the familiar autumn feeling has finally arrived.

Aside from the changing weather, there’s nothing better in the fall than the fashion. This is the best time of year to pull out those comfortable sweaters, oversized jackets and rich autumnal colors.

Even as a young professional you can wear nice sweaters to the office.

If you’re currently lacking fashion inspiration for the season, keep reading to find out how you can easily kill the fashion game with these 10 timeless fall fashion outfits.

ORANGE STREET STYLE

One of the very first fall fashion outfits you’ll want to recreate is the dark orange bomber and grey outfit combination. This ensemble is cool, easy to wear and appropriate for casual occasions.

Wearing grey on grey is a unique style a lot of people don’t think to pull off. The key to wearing this getup, is to break it up with a colorful jacket, such as the dark orange one above.

Both colors are extremely appropriate for autumn, but are paired together in an unexpected way.

This look is also a nice twist on the traditional black & white street style we are used to seeing. It can even be used as an easy way to transition your wardrobe for the fall.

Check out where you can find the best deals on street style attire.

WARMTH WITH STYLE

The black on black jeans and turtleneck combination is a classic fall fashion attire.

What truly makes this outfit unique however, is the use of the turtleneck instead of a traditional black t-shirt, as well as the color combination.

The contrast of the black outfit with the camel coat marry seamlessly, as the colors compliment each other this time of year.

The upturned collar and style of the jacket against the turtleneck also add a little bit more edge to the look.

Additionally, the suede jacket does a great job of highlighting one’s figure and elongating the neck. This is truly a muted way to look high fashion, timeless and elegant.

EDGY FOR FALL

This outfit is a go-to if you’re interested in wearing a fully edgy look. This black on black outfit will be guaranteed to turn people’s heads, as the combination of the beret, Dr. Martin’s and cross-body bag make a jeans and t-shirt outfit, look offbeat.

The lose appearance of the leather / suede jacket also gives the overall attire a casual, nonchalant feel.

That jacket definitely completes the look and is what brings this edgy outfit to the next level.

Check out which accessories every guy needs in his closet to pull an outfit together.

SUIT UP WITH CLASS

If you’re one to wear a suit everyday, make sure to rock a beautifully rich, navy blue one for the fall. This color is not only appropriate for this time of year, but it flatters a lot of men’s skin tones, is extremely modern and pops nicely against a white dress shirt.

Pair the whole look with the best suit accessories, such as silver tie clip, and you’ll look sharper than anyone at your office.

You can also style this stunt suit with a chunky metal watch and a pair of killer sunglasses (the Ray Ban Clubmaster are very nice on most men).

COOL AND CASUAL

When the colder seasons roll around, most of us enjoy staying in, getting comfortable and feeling cozy at home. This white t-shirt and light wash denim outfit is perfect for just that.

The combination is such a classic outfit, that it’ll keep you feeling comfortable and looking trendy at the same time. You’ll totally be killing fall fashion at home in this ensemble.

By the way, I created a great an easy guide to help you never spend hundreds to look expensive again. Here it is: How to Look Expensive.

SMART CASUAL IS KEY

It’s no secret smart casual is my personal favourite style on men. It’s elegant, classic and truly a put-together look. You can rock business casual this fall by switching out your summer linen blazer, for a deep purple, checkered suit jacket instead.

This blazer paired with beige pants and camel leather loafers is an awesome color contrast for autumn, that’ll keep you looking classy all season long.

SWEATER AND A BLAZER

Much like the previous look, this is also a smart casual outfit as well. This attire is a great transitional one from the summertime.

Despite beige and white being summer colors, you can get away with this outfit in the autumn simply by switching out your polo, for a crew neck sweater. This way, you can easily pull-off this summer inspired look in the fall too.

Match the look with an elegant pair of boots, and you are set to kill fall fashion.

EDGY AND BUSINESS CASUAL COLLIDE

What I love about this outfit is how it merges two styles together: business casual and edgy. This creates an unexpectedly unique look.

The base of the outfit is quite contemporary with the t-shirt and trousers combination. However, the addition of the leather jacket and dress shoes make the look a little more rough.

This style is great if you like switching things up and are experimenting with your clothing.

Check out how you can merge street style and class.

COMFORTABLE AND CHIC

If you want a simple, yet appropriate fall look, then this is the perfect outfit for you. It’s classic, elegant and suitable for any gentlemen looking to impress this season.

Although the combination of the sweater and the chino pants is predictable and very common, the color pairing is what will make you stand out of the crowd.

You can’t deny the dark orange knit merges well with the beige trousers. Not to mention, it’s a color combination a lot of people don’t think of trying out. You can be sure to kill fall fashion in this safe, yet colorful attire.

FORMAL WEAR

Last but certainly not least, formal wear. I couldn’t do a fall fashion outfits inspiration article without including a tux.

Although they are worn all year long, they are especially appropriate in the fall with all the holiday parties coming up.

A tux is the epitome of elegance and will definitely make you look amazing for any black tie event.

Check out this article on how you can complete your tux and look expensive.

Stylish Men's Winter Boots - Tips For Men

It's a tough pill to swallow, but the fact of the matter is, winter's on its way. And while those suede Chelsea boots may have been great for the brisk-but-harmless autumn months, they're just not going to cut it when the weather turns ugly. As we all know, snow, rain, and ice can wreak havoc on shoes. So get prepared with these pairs of winter boot . Your feet will thank you.

The Brogue Boot

There's actually a reason for broguing beyond simple aesthetics: Originally the brogue holes were added by Irish shoemakers to allow water to drain off the shoes when walking in wet weather. That functionality is long gone—the holes are now decorative—but the hefty soles and general durability remain. In terms of a dressier boot that can also handle the elements, you can't do much better.

The Blucher Boot

Originally developed by a Prussian general (Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher, hence the name) during the Napoleonic Wars to give Prussian soldiers more comfort and better protection for their feet, blucher boots are a perfect way to keep the elements out while still maintaining a professional look for the office.

The Combat Boot
The name "combat boot" may not exactly evoke images of office wear, but the truth is, a streamlined and polished pair can look amazing with either a suit or business casual. Just make sure not to tuck your trousers into them paratrooper-style.

The Dressy Hiking Boot

Fortunately hiking boots have been a major fashion trend for the last couple of winters, which means there's a whole host options that you can wear to the office. Just make sure they aren't too bulky, and are crafted from high-quality leather. You can even polish them up just like you would your regular dress shoes.

The Cap Toe Leather Boot
Similar to a blucher or derby, a cap-toe boot has the added advantage of extra leather on the toe, which gives it a little bit more protection from snow and rain. Plus, just as with cap-toe oxfords, it's a nice added element of style

Basic Fashion For Teenage Guys - Tips For Boys Only.

One of the most important things for teenage boys is to feel at ease with themselves. As a teen, you want to be yourself and fit in with everyone else. Self-expression and acceptance are crucial things for teen guys and style has a lot to do with it.

Your appearance is a big part of who you are and looking on the outside as you feel on the inside is something that, especially during your teen years, can be hard to achieve. Teenage boys are faced with many aspects of style which they don’t know how to handle. Because your body is changing so rapidly, and often not evenly, it might be hard to find the right clothes to wear and your apparel might sometimes make you feel bad or embarrassed. Moreover, boys tend to get frustrated by the fact that other boys look so different from them, even though they are the same age. This is why it is important to learn how to make the best of your body and body type.

Don’t forget, you can always change your body, working out can make you lose weight if this is what you wish or it can build muscle, but, often, these things take time. It is always crucial to make the best of what you have now, as this will give you the confidence and power to work towards achieving your goals.

Here are some style tips that can be applied at any age and regardless of your style and taste in clothes.

Have something for every setting

Teen boyA teen must have clothes that are suited for any setting. Since you are probably spending most of your time in school, at arts or sports classes and hanging out at the mall or studying, you probably don’t need as many business clothes as an older man. However, it is recommend to have at least one go-to suit.

Here is an example of a versatile, basic wardrobe:

1. Jeans

2. Khakis, chinos, etc.

3. Shirts

4. T-shirts

5. Vests

6. Jackets

7. Jumpers

8. Long sleeve shirt

9. Socks

10. Underwear

11. Dress shoes

12. Casual shoes

13. Sneakers

14. A suit

15. Accessories (watches, ties, bow ties)

Wear fitting clothes

Teen boy styleWearing clothes that fit is probably the single most important fashion advice you will ever receive. Regardless of your size or body type (which, if you are a teen might still change), wearing clothes that fit is the one thing that will make you look best.

But what does it mean to wear clothes that fit? Basically, it means that the clothes you wear should fit your size, they should not be smaller or bigger.

A small guy who wears clothes that are too big for his size will look as if he is drowning in his clothes. If you are a small guy, and want to appear bigger by wearing smaller clothes, that won’t work either: you will look even smaller and strangled by your clothes. On the other hand, if you are a bigger guy, wearing clothes that are bigger than your size will make you look even bigger and wearing clothes that are too tight will make you look as if you are hurt by your clothes.

How to tell if something fits

Teen guyIt might take a while until you get the hang of how clothes work, but until then, there are a few things you can check to make sure your clothes fit. First of all, if you are buying a shirt, a jacket or any other kind of top piece (sweaters, t-shirts, etc.), you should check the shoulders: the sewing line that connects the shoulder line to the sleeve should match your natural shoulder line.

Also, when you are buying pants, make sure that they start at your waist, not at your belly button and not lower. Moreover, you should check the bottom part of your pants. If, while wearing them, they have more than one fold, they are too big.

Generally speaking, clothes that fit have three characteristics:

1. They touch your body without squeezing it

2. They are comfortable

3. They make you look good

Also, it is recommended to always wear good underwear. Don’t wear any underwear that is too tight: it might cause rashes; it can harm your privates and feel uncomfortable. Don’t wear underwear that is too loose either: as a teenage guy, you probably have many unexpected erections, which you don’t necessarily want to share with the world.

Tailor your clothes

This all sounds good in theory, but, as a teen, you will find that at often times, the clothes you find on a store shelf don’t necessarily fit your body. The reason for this is because each guy is growing differently, and therefore, at most times, if a jacket fits in the shoulders, it won’t fit in the arms’ length and so on.

This is where the magic of tailoring comes in. A good tailor can do wonders for your looks. The sooner you will realize this, the better it will be!

The trick is, however, to know how to buy clothes that you will be able to tailor. For example, when you are shopping for a blazer or a jacket, you should make sure that it fits in the shoulders. A tailor can adjust pretty much anything about the fit of a jacket, but they can’t change the shoulders.

Moreover, it is recommended to buy clothes that are slightly larger, if you wish to have them tailored. If a piece is too small, it will be hard and costly to add fabric to it to make it look good.

Some clothes however, don’t necessarily need tailoring. For example, before considering tailoring your jeans, you should wash them twice. The reason for this is because jeans will always shrink in length when washed. This is why you should always buy jeans that a little longer than you’d need them. Also, when you are in doubt about which pair of jeans to buy and have to choose between two sizes that both seem to fit, always choose the smaller size, as jeans stretch with wear. Also, as a style tip, dark-wash jeans look dressier, are more versatile and are better at hiding dirt, which, let’s face it, as a teen, you might get on your pants.

Get a hairstyle

Teen guysWhen it comes to your haircut, it is important to find a haircut that fits your features and traits. However, if you are not a guy to invest a lot of time in doing your hair and maintaining it, you should be advised that a buzz cut is better than an unmaintained hairdo.

Care for grooming

When you are a teenager, you might be faced with a number of grooming-related issues you don’t know what to do about.

Here are a few tips:

1. To make sure your skin is always clean; exfoliate a few times each week. It is not recommended to exfoliate more than three times each week.

2. If you start shaving, you might experience rashes afterwards. For some guys, this is a temporary thing, while others simply have a more sensitive skin. There is nothing wrong with that. Either way, you can use a good after-shave lotion for sensitive skin to reduce the rashes.

3. Make sure you always use a good deodorant. Moreover, if you have sweaty feet, pour two or three tablespoons of baking soda in your sneakers in the evening and tilt the shoe to distribute the soda evenly. The baking soda will absorb perspiration and odor. Make sure you take the soda out before putting your shoes back on. This way, your sneakers will be clean and neat all the time.

To conclude, we can say that, regardless of your style, wearing fitting clothes and keeping it clean will make you look polished and clean. This will result in people taking you more seriously and in you feeling more confident about who you are and about everything you do.
