Look Muscular Through Layering This Fall
#TeachingTuesdays
How to appear more muscular through the art of layering?
If you’re bestowed with sloped shoulders or a somewhat slim upper body, learn to layer your outfit in such a way so as to craft a delusion of broader shoulders. To make your shoulders look broader, go for contrasting fabric or details like epaulets. If you are built with a big upper body, I recommend you check Raglan sleeve that can create a wider underarm area, thereby providing you a more sloped shoulder.
Tailored Wool Blend Jacket To Hit This Monday

IT’S FALL, BUT WHAT DO YOU WEAR TO A WEDDING AS A GUEST ON ALL SEASONS?
There are a few do’s and don’ts that most style pros share when it comes to selecting the right outfit for a wedding guest. If you’re a groomsman, then you need to be doubly careful about what you wear in a wedding ceremony before you perform the required acts. Style-conscious couples will agree that any wedding dress code depends on the style of the occasion or event, and what time of the year it is. For instance, what your wear to a casual wedding when the sun is scorching bright will be vastly different from what you wear to a black-tie wedding in the bitingly chilly cold.
Suppose if you’re code is black-tie; then I recommend a black tuxedo. Guests should also pick the appropriate tuxedo-shirt, cufflinks in a matchy-matchy metal, a stud set, either a vest waist or cummerbund covering, with white-colored pocket square and black patent leather shoes as suitable accessories.
If it’s a casual daytime wedding, I suggest a navy blazer, and if it’s specifically casual, go for khaki pants or a blue button-down slack. You therefore need to understand the different wedding dress codes for making an informed decision on the selection of an appropriate outfit. Learning what is what: black-tie optional, white tie, formal outfit, semi-formal, dressy casual, cocktail outfit and all others in between is important. Only by thoroughly understanding the various dress codes, you can decide on the right outfit type to your next wedding as a guest.
In addition to the above recommended outfits depending upon whether the wedding is formal, casual or even semi-causal, the location and season of the wedding play an important part in the selection of the right outfit for wedding guests. If you’re a guest to a Summer beach wedding, the recommended style will be lighter colors. For Fall weddings, go for darker jewel-tone colors and richer fabric materials including silk and velvet. In the case of winter weddings, I recommend cashmere, velvet and wool, in addition to jackets, blazers and heavily constructed shoes. When the summer is at its peak, the best outfit for wedding guests should include fabrics that are lightweight, comfortable and free flowing.
The location of the wedding shouldn’t be taken lightly in the matter of selecting the right outfit if you’re a wedding guest. For example, don’t expect that what you wear for an outdoor wedding at a farm will be equally good for an evening bash at a swanky ballroom. It is also important to check if there are any religious ceremonies featuring in the wedding. Attending a wedding in a religious facility requires a bit of attention. Ensure your shoulders are well covered and hats removed. Therefore, some research should go into the wedding venue before the actual event so you may understand what the expectations are. You can also check the photos of the venue on its website or social media pages for greater clarity. Leave no stone unturned on what not to wear that is not appropriate to a wedding based on its theme, season of the year, location and formality.
So what are you waiting for? The jacket is your go-to wear this season. Own one and you own the night in the process!
