The weather is perfect, not too cold, not too hot. Everything is falling into pieces like the autumn leaves. All our favorite brands are cutting prices in clearance sales.

↓ 21 – Brown is the Shade of the Season
Tree bark hues and coffee-colored clothes make their way into the store shelves as the season starts. Whether it is 2021 or 1980 brown has always been the supreme shade of autumn in men’s fashion. Camel-colored cashmere, hazel hoodies, beige boots, sepia shirts take over the fashion runways as the leaves begin to shed. Though, it does not mean you have to step out looking like a camel whenever you leave your house. Add colors to your outfit. The one color that goes best with brown is blue. A typical and simple look is to wear a blue shirt with some khaki pants, paired with a light-colored sweater. You can wear white tennis shoes if you are going for streetwear or brown Oxfords for a more formal look. Add some accessories like a wristwatch or a belt for a more handsome look.

↓ 20 – Head to Toe Tones
Single toned outfits are sweeping the runways and ramps on the fashion week. For example, a tracksuit with matching jacket and uppers would be a stylish option. wearing a single color from head to toe can be tricky, though. What colors you choose to dress in matters a lot. For instance, if you go out dressed in bright red from top to bottom, chances are you will be called a ‘fire truck’ rather than a fashionista. Or if you wear an orange ensemble then be prepared to be called a pumpkin, especially with all the Halloween decorations going on in October. Faded or neutral tones will work better in cases like these. Here are 18 Ways to Wear Leather Jackets.
↓ 19 – Vertical Stripes

↓ 18 – Tie Waist Jackets
These are not your regular jackets. They come with a belt that goes around your waist. These are best for days when the air feels colder than usual and a sweater alone won’t do. These coats look good is a basic or neutral color. Pairing with the same hue as the coat keeps a balance in the outfit, so try to match the two articles. Same goes for the shoes. Tie waist jackets are good for a formal outdoor event, too where you need to keep your jacket on. They look smart and handsome, turning all eyes towards you.
↓ 17 – Camouflage Never Goes Out of Style
No matter what the season, camo will always be a good choice. Bringing out the stud in you, camo automatically attracts all eyes towards you (ironically) – but that is a good thing because everyone can pull of this simple look. From pants and shirts to accessories almost everything is made from camouflage print, though that does not mean I’m advising you to dress up as an agent of the force when you go out grocery shopping. Only wear one item in camo print at a time. If you are going with a camouflage printed shirt, then simple brown pants or blue jeans are the way to go. If you are wearing a camo printed pant, then it looks best with a plain white tee.

The nostalgia of the nineties still lingers. We miss the landlines, rollerblades and Fresh Prince of Bel-Air on TV. Which is why we keep looking ways to re-live that golden era. Fashion brands and designers have filled the runways with the ’90s inspired outfits. Snapbacks, biker jackets, overalls with a strap down, baggy pants are all in fashion this October. The biggest ’90s inspired look is the ripped jeans (which we might have taken a little too far now, but it still has it’s roots set in the previous century). From Prada to Ralph Lauren all the brands have used the ’90s as an inspiration for their fall line. So, it’s time to hit the store for some baggy clothes and snapback caps and perhaps a copy of your favorite Nirvana album (if they still sell it today) and jam it out like a ’90s kid would in the ’90s.

↓ 10 – Shearlings
Nothing compares to the softness and comfort of a shearling coat, it almost feels like heaven (unless you are a vegetarian and are probably thinking of us as some sort of animal hating beasts, sorry for that).

The result is a soft, natural fleece material that is lightweight and extremely comfortable. Because of the high quality and uniqueness Shearlings are considered as a luxurious purchase, though totally worth it. Here’s the best collection of Mens Shearling Jacket Outfits.

You can start with a basic white t-shirt or undershirt as your base layer. Then, you can wear a dress shirt on top of that as a second base layer. Then, you can wear a sweater, cardigan or vest. Whatever you choose, it should fit snugly over your other layers and tie, but should not look like it’s cutting off your circulation. If you go for a sweater or cardigan, make sure it’s light-weight, rather than a bulky knit. In the end, you can wear a jacket, and a coat for when you go outside. These are the five layers for a formal outfit in October.
