The Varsity Cardigan

We know varsity/baseball jackets are in right now but now we have a varsity cardigan which layers lovely over a button up and tie for a sporty/gentleman look. The bright colors are cool, especially when it picks up colors from the tie peeking from underneath.

For the Gentlemen: Stay Cozy & Stylish in Sweaters this Season

I helped the girls out, now it’s the guys’ turn. Color is big with guys too as well as cardigans and the preppy, layered look.

Love this rustic red shade pull over sweater with pockets by Marc Ecko.

Royal blue looks good on anybody, what a great shade. Doesn’t look half bad with a graphic tee underneath. Armani Exchange

This plaid sweater by Lucky Brand reminds me of a rustic, country boy in hiker boots and messy hair, kind of like the model actually. It’s different.

 

This Ralph Lauren polo sweater from Macy’s comes in many cool colors but I can’t choose between the pink or emerald green as my favorite. Two gorgeous shades that look great layered over a plaid button down.

Can’t go wrong with a Sean John cardigan. Total geek hot.

Stay Cozy and Stylish in Sweaters This Holiday Season

I must admit I hate sweaters. They’re so bulky and staticky. I’m so glad I moved to Florida. But I still have to cater to my Fashion Feens who live in all parts of the country so I decided to search the web for some sweaters that will keep you cozy this winter but stay stylish! Colors that pop are definitely in this season!

Royal Blue Sweater by Express, bound to bring out anyone’s eyes. I love how fitted this sweater is. Looks great with a scarf or sexy lacy tank underneath.

Super cool cropped sweater in a juicy orange shade by BCBG. Who says colors that remind you of summer can’t be worn in winter?

Cool color block sweater with a retro feel by Forever21. I dig it.

Gotta have a cardigan in your closet. Oversized unisex cardigan by American Apparel comes in many colors and even prints. Skinny belt it and add some leggings, wa-la!

Ponchos are in style this season so grab a neutral one and pair it with anything! Poncho by ArdenB.

The Hottest Trends Right Now for Men

Snapback Hats

I’m still a sucker for guys in fitteds but the snapback style is coming back and I can dig it.

Geek Glasses

 

Thanks to the runway models and celebs like Pharrell and Kanye West, geek glasses are cool again. They look hot on a preppy look like the model shown here or on a casual or urban look like Pharrell wears here.

Cardigans

Great way to dress up any look is to add a cardigan. Cardigans in bright colors are hot right now too. Throw it over a nice button up with a tie, layers make every look more stylish.

Tailored Trench Coats

Long trench coats are hot right now and I love seeing them paired with boots such as the ones below. They’re super stylish and total gentleman status. Try poppin the collar for a cooler look.

Hiker Boots

Laced up hiker boots add a bad boy touch to any outfit. I especially love when the celebs rock them on the red carpet in all black with suits and ties, adds an edge!

Cuffed Jeans

This look is everywhere! It’s all about the thin cuffed jeans or slacks, no more thick cuffs. It looks cool with dress shoes, loafers or boots. Just cuff it twice to show a little ankle, no higher!

Wild, Wild West

Get this look here.

The western look is another big trend sneaking its way into Spring 2010. Follow these tips so as to not look like you’re sporting a cowgirl costume for Halloween.

1. Go nude. Not literally. Opt for beige and tan shades like Alessandria Ambrossio’s outfit in the photo. Beige pants, an open tan vest, and throw some white in there for some contrast, so you don’t appear naked from afar. Very laid-back & country-like.

Sailorrr by Steve Madden $99.95

2. Skip the cowboy boots. This trend is for the spring, so put the boots on the back burner and get a pair of nude or brown wedges. They’ll go with everything and anything so you’ll get a lot of use out of them.

Burnout Tab Sleeve Cardigan $19.80 Forever 21

3. Keep it asymmetrical. Draped, asymmetrical tops are a big trend for spring. It’s a nice, casual look and it still gives that western care-free feel.

4. Skip on white pants. Beige is a safer alternative to white pants. You won’t worry as much about getting them dirty..okay a little bit but not as much as pure white! And beige or tan aren’t see through like white risks being.

Vicki Suede Fringe Vest $79.95 by Guess

5. Add some fringe. Fringe is popping up everywhere, which is a perfect touch for the Western look of course! Fringe on tops and vests looks hot, especially long sexy fringe like the Guess Vest pictured above.
