What I Wore Can’t Stop The Rain Shirt: TOPMAN (TOPSHOP) Jacket: Banana Republic (shop: similar to this Joseph Abboud blazer) Pants: ZARA (shop: similar to these ASOS pants) Necklace: Gift from Italy Scarf: Thrifted (shop: similar to this Forever21 scarf) Boots: Kenneth Cole (shop: similar to these G by GUESS boots) Glasses: Tom Ford (shop: Tom Ford glasses) I want to teach you how to add a punch (not a bunch) of color into your wardrobe. Sadly, for a lot of men a blue dress shirt is about as colorful as his clothing choices get. I’m not by any means encouraging Rainbow Bright ensembles, but I believe every man should integrate a bit of color into his wardrobe. It’s what separates the amateurs from the pros. You can start by building your wardrobe around colors that complement your eyes or your complexion, and if you don’t know what colors those are, then simply ask your girlfriend. She’ll know. Before you master complex color combinations, you can start by simply adding an item of color that stays within the same color family as something else in your outfit, or you can add a new color as long as its complimentary. Orange and navy look good together, thats why I added the orange scarf to compliment my navy blazer. If you’re wearing a green dress shirt, go for a forest green tie or at least a tie in which dark green is a main contestant. You can also keep it simple by adding a brightly colored shirt with a dark suit and a dark tie. This look is always a winner. Photo credit: Scott Hammel scotterpop.com

I’m a sucker for outerwear — hence the reason the fall season tickles my fancy. For cold weather I usually go trench or shearling coats, but on cool breezy days I always reach for a good fitted zip-up slicker. I generally keep the color of my coats pretty basic, like cream, brown or navy, but the polyester-linen blend that most slickers are made of favors the chance of rocking a bright color. The one I’m wearing is from ZARA and it features elbow patches with matching side panels and a removable hood, but there are tons of smart slickers out there from other brands like Gant, Oliver Spencer, and Billy Reid. Buy one that fits as good as a suit jacket and wear it with pretty much anything. The best part is that while a slicker will help you survive a showery day, no precipitation is needed to be worn.
