Men's Winter Fashion: The Do's and Dont's

The Do's:
  • Classic Winter Hat: it's time to give grandma's knitted hats a rest this year. Basic ski caps, fedora, newsboy hats, and bowlers works perfectly fine for keeping your head warm, and looking great.
  • Leather: Even though it takes proper maintance to keep a good looking leather jacket, it still can take a beating and it's the perfect jacket for rain or snow.
  • AVest:  A vest is the perfect layering piece. it can be that finishing piece on warmer days. wear it with a sweater to keep your arm's warm. *Note: DO NOT wear over sized vest.
  • Scarf: Learn the many ways to tie a scarf. 3 popular and simple ways to tying a scarf: the parisen style, once-around knot, and the loose once-around knot-which works perfect with longer scarfs. *Note: DO NOT just throw one end over your shoulder.
The Dont's:
  • Oversized Puffy Jackets: this is a big dont. even thought this may seem warm, DONT do it. layer up on some sweaters with a nice jacket.
  • UGG Boots: there is a unisex boot, but dont wear them.  they still look feminine, for the most part. Most men have stopped wear UGGs but there is still a few of you who still wear them. For real cold days, just throw on a pair of Sorel boots.
  • Bulking Up: dont wear so many layers that you become and shape-less heap of ugly. it all starts with over sized clothes. pick clothes that are fitted. *Solution: Thermal tees,cashmere hoodies, and tailored topcoats.
  • Mix and Mismatch Athletic Gear: dont wear your ski jacket with your zipper-dangling pass, when your going out for the night, or some bulky pair a winter gloves. have a seperate pair of winter attire for work, and plat winter attire. *Solution: Slim wool coat, nylon jacket with removable layers, leather jacket, raincoat.
