Happy Monday folks! In honor of fall, I wanted to incorporate subtle layers for this week’s #MensStyleMondays post.

So, why subtle layers? If you haven’t noticed the weather outside, our temperature decided to drop an entire 20 degrees this past weekend. Yes, 20 degrees! So, it’s very important to layer up during those colder afternoons.

From the statements mentioned above, I have put together an outfit that pulls the subtle layering concept all together. Check out the full feature below!

Jacket: H&M | Camo Vest: Forever21 | Oxford Button-Down |
Skinny Jeans: H&M | Wingtip Boots: Studio Ink | Necktie: Nordstrom

For this outfit, my goal was to capture the essence of fall, with as many light weight layers as possible.

I started with my base layer, which was the modern solid color button-down from Gap. I can truthfully say that these shirts are very comfortable and affordable. Mine was purchased on sale for $17 and I have owned it for years. Although I am still in love with this particular shirt, it required more layers.

So, I threw on this camo tailored vest from Forever21. Originally purchased for $25, this vest is now a lot cheaper than its original price. Similar to the vest, this khaki jacket was also purchased for $25. I stumbled across this jacket on a H&M sale rack and quickly ran to the check out cash register. It’s very rare that you will find a nice thick khaki jacket for under $30. I guess it was truly meant for me.

I finished my outfit with a pair of skinny denim jeans from H&M, a pair of wingtip boots from DSW, and socks from H&M as well. Although these jeans are  a little snug, they look great with a pair boots.

Overall, I was able to pull a few layers together to create a full outfit for an affordable price!

How do you plan to layer your clothes this season? Leave us some comments below.

So every once in a while, I try to push the fashion envelope outside of my comfort zone. Wait, I don’t mean anything extreme like crop tops, printed jeggings, or a Kanye West inspired leather kilt. Seriously, I am not knocking anyone that wears clothing like that but that’s not really my style at all.

Now, when I say, “outside of my comfort zone,” that’s another way of saying, “Bryce Lennon but with a little edge!”

Traditionally, you will catch me on #MensStyleMondays with a pair of khakis, button-down, t-shirt, denim shorts, and loafers. For this post, I decided to switch up my look from dapper to street! Check out the full feature below.

Harem Pants: Uxcell | Denim Shirt: H&M | Tank: ASOS | Boots: Aston Grey

If you consider yourself edgy, you walk a thin line between acceptance and controversial in the world of fashion. Imagine how many stares and smirks I receive from my fellow side-walkers on a  daily basis. Think about it, when you like wearing stylish clothing, the mean comments come with the territory. So, you have to very comfortable with yourself. Just remember to soak everything in and keep having fun!

For this particular outfit, we can make the same argument. The everyday man of  today would not be caught dead wearing a pair of harem pants. I honestly have no problem wearing harem pants! They are comfortable, stylish, and you can combine them with a variety of looks. For instance, you can pair them with a denim shirt, tank, and combat boots like me, or you can be a little more adventurous and throw on a blazer. The sky is the limit here people!

If you want a pair of harem pants, you don’t have to look very hard. There are a number of online stores that have them available for men. Mine were purchased from a Chinese, online distributor called Uxcell. Through Amazon.com, I purchased these pants for $17. Yes, another steal for the week! In addition, you can  purchase a pair of harem pants in four colors: dark blue, light gray, dark blue, and black. Obviously, I went with the black pair.

Have you ever pushed the fashion envelope? If so, tell us about it in the comments section below!
