It was so darn hot today that all I wanted to do after work was sleep through the heat 'til it finally cools down at night. Times like these, I miss the cold season even more. Fall/ Winter are the best seasons to dress up, with all the beautiful colors and layers and textures that you can work with. I was really bored today and I knew that the only thing to cheer me up was to talk about men's fashion. Yes, I love men's fashion...maybe even more than women's--- I guess it's a force of habit since I've worked with it for 8 years.
I am very pleased to report to you that as the double-breasted suit has been creeping around us for 3 years or so, and it is now back in full force but with a more modern twist to it--- it's got narrower lapels and a more tapered body. The usual fall colors are seen like maroon, dark grey, plum and so on but teal seems to be the go-to color for some of my favorite designers.
Here are my top picks for Men's Fall Collection 2014:
Balenciaga
Alexander Wang just gained himself a new fan. I just love the clean lines yet he throws in modern details such as the zipper added on a suit jacket or a two-toned peak lapel coat.
Costume National
Here comes the teal! The color is just amazing on this coat!
This leather trimmed suit spells sophistication but with a lot of edge.
Canali
Leave it to Canali to deliver style with the most luxurious fabrics. The herringbone jacket looks heavenly and I want those dark maple dress shoes for the boyfriend.
Gucci
I love how casual chic this collection is, with a great play-up of neutral colors such as taupe, mocha and cool blue.

Most of you men and your family jewels will be rejoicing as you can see that the trendy ultra-skinny leg pants are now overshadowed by a more comfortable tapered cut. You know what this means...no more stealing of your girlfriend's skinny jeans, you klepto!
What say you, boys? Let's go buy you some new duds!
Toodles!
