Mastering the art of layering can be a simple task, especially if you know how to coordinate colors well.

For this week’s individual style feature, we had a chance to meet up with our homeboy, Alex. Recently, we caught up with this debonair man wearing one of his favorite layered looks.

With a solid color combination and thick layers, Alex’s laid back appearance is perfect for an evening stroll. “Layers and earth tones are the core of this look. Simple beige and forest green lay the foundation for the contrast with the blue denim jacket and the winter accessories. The juxtaposition of contrasting materials, denim jacket and chino joggers, also add to the look,” Alex states.

Breaking down the outfit even further, Alex makes the following statement, “The layering here is very strategic and works well in the unpredictable weather we see so much in the northeast where mornings routinely begin in the 30s with evenings in the 50s. The vest-denim jacket combination allows me to bundle up as much as it allows me to be and shed layers and maintain my look I also love my denim jacket because the chest pockets are like mini-personal canvases for my pin collection. There I can share my allegiances and interests, and they serve as a great conversation pieces.”

As you can see, Alex is very passionate about his appearance. To be honest, we need more fashion conscience men out there.

So, how do you feel about his look? Feel free to share with us in the comments section below.
