Men's Fall Fashion 2006 Style Guide

Five Items You Need for Fall

Hey guys, this is your time to shine, fall provides men the perfect opportunity to show off their fashion sense. Why not make this fall your most fashionable season yet?

We can all agree it's just not fair that men have to don a coat and tie in August when the ladies get to wear diaphanous dresses and sandals. Good news, fall brings many things that make guys happy: Baseball's World Series, the beginning of football season, and a break from the sweltering heat. Cooler temperatures mean it's time to get out the wool sweaters and corduroys. This simple Fall Fashion Guide will help you avoid becoming a fashion victim.

First, let's get the essential shopping list together:
1.Military Jacket
2.Double-breasted grey suit
3.Vintage inspired sneakers
4.New, crisp white dress shirt
5.Peacoat

The military jacket is a fun choice for casual dress. Toss it on over your favorite jeans and a cool Henley shirt and you've got a perfect relaxed look. You don't have to spend a bundle on this trend - Old Navy is a perfect place to start your hunt. Theory also makes an excellent jacket. Be wary of Army/Navy surplus stores, as those jackets tend to be a bit boxy and bulky.

Grey is the big color in men's fashion this fall. Designers like Giorgio Armani, Jil Sander and Marc Jacobs all sent shades of grey down the runway.

The two most practical ways to add grey to your wardrobe:
•A classic double-breasted suit
•A sweater

When it comes to suits, Thom Browne and Michael Bastian were the talk of the town during fashion week. More conservative shoppers could look to Canali and Ralph Lauren for the double-breasted suit. Regardless of the designer, this style is relatively timeless and a solid investment for gentlemen required wearing suits to work.
