In order to bring in the new year with style, I decided to kick off 2015 with a new #MensStyleMondays post.

But Bryce Lennon, it’s Wednesday. Yes, it’s Wednesday, but I couldn’t go another day without posting.

So without further ado, I would like to present one of my favorite outerwear pieces of 2015, the modern trench coat.

Considered part of the essential wardrobe, this jacket is perfect for any man that wants to stay dry on a rainy day. In addition, the modern trench coat is stylish enough for both formal and casual events.

For any formal occasion, try wearing your trench coat with a blazer, suit, or a tuxedo. On the other hand, you can wear your trench coat casually over your favorite  chinos, jeans, sweater, or button-down.

In this particular case, I decided to layer my trench coat over a few “semi-casual” essentials. For instance, I first paired my white button-down with a green and navy tartan printed waistcoat. Since bold prints are very trendy this season, the tartan waistcoat looked great over a solid colored shirt.

For my lower region, I continued with this “semi-casual” theme. So, I threw on my favorite burgundy chinos from H&M with a pair of polka dot socks and tassel leather loafers. Honestly, I think the burgundy pants were perfectly matched with the tartan waist coat. This color combo gives the outfit an overall winter feel.

As an extra layer, I threw on my Levis denim jacket under my trench coat. The denim jacket simply added the finishing touches to an already, dapper look.

What do you wear underneath your trench coat? Tell us about it in the comments section below!
