So, stick around and let style wash your over!

Quilted Jackets: This has been a jock’s staple for years now, this season it just comes with a little extra baggage. Here’s a way to wear it without looking like a walking- talking sleeping bag.

The key is to add linear layers. A streamlined shirt and a light tee will do the trick, keep your bottoms dark to diffuse the bulk of the jacket. Play with textures, most quilts come in synthetic fabrics, add layers of cotton or linen for an edge.

Corduroy: The British staple is back and how! The only way to wear corduroy is going all out! Think Corduroy in a darker hue like moss green or maroon. If you are going to wear separates, keep them in the same colour family for a sleek look. Think deep navy with a pastel blue shirt. Add accessories like pocket square, cufflinks for a finished look. Also, if you’re feeling a little more adventurous, give the neck scarf a whirl.

PJ Trend: Men! It’s your time to embrace the PJ’s trend. Women had their fun, it’s now your turn to slip out in style. Just roll out of bed with your favorite PJs on, add some cool kicks, your favorite shades and you are good to go. PS: Do not touch that bed hair! It’s what’s keeping it all together.

Roll Necks: I will just never know why, this wasn’t a trend already! Men in turtle necks are so hot. Think Oxford geek. Trousers, turtle neck, wide- rimmed glasses and a trench thrown over. Doesn’t take much to get you in the A-list of fashion forwards.

Silk Shirts: Shine on you crazy diamond, shine on! The key to this look is in the simplicity. Pair your silk shirt with some trusted basics like denims and chinos. Thrown on a slim tie. Remember to keep the tie matte for some easy style.

Hippie Grunge: When two eras collide, how can you not try it out? Combine psychedelic prints with plaids and ripped denims. Floral shirts with leather jackets. To play on the safer side, think 1 part hippie + 3 parts punk, and you’ll do just fine.

Offbeat Outcast: This year runway is all about embracing the outcasts. Think sequins, embroidered jackets, art school prints, velvet, fur and vinyl. If you live your life on the more dangerous side, this one is for you. There are only two ways to do this right – Go all out or Hold all in. Wear head-to-toe velvet or sequins chords and step ahead of the crowd. Or let one piece shine through, wear your embroidered jacket with the classic combination of white shirt and blue denims. Stick to these two rules, and go out and rule the world!
