STYLING: Dark and Stormy


RAINY SEASON - This is one of the biggest challenges when it comes to looking good, 
and not to forget being lazy enough to haul the closet. 
With some advance planning in terms of prepping your wardrobe, 
however, accomplishing this feat is completely possible. 
I say grab some of the pieces that you usually own and present when its raining, 
adding a fresh element or two can still give you the power of transforming the worst weather days into the best fashion ones.

Fall is all about layers and layers and layers and layers...

TOP : JACKET
Quilted Moto Jacket in Black
The piece is going to transform your wet weather look and create an aesthetic you can work with even on the most blustery of days
Try a topper with a cut that is close-to-the-body thermal type and abundance of silver zippers, for a rock vibe even for a tough stormy days.
A full-zip front helps keep body heat in as it keeps wind and rain away from your neck and chest.
  Four zip pockets also provide more than enough space for you to safely carry your wallet, cell phone and iPod player so you won’t have to worry about water damage.


BOTTOM : JEANS
Boot-cut or relaxed-fit jeans and pants should be avoided at all costs on rainy days as the bottom hemline will drag on the ground, getting wet and collecting muck -- not a look that’s in. Opt for slim-fit jeans with tapered ankles that don’t touch the pavement, Of course, you’ll get heaps of wear out of these jeans year-round too, as they’re a classic that pairs well with anything from vintage rock T-shirts to sharp blazers



INNER:V-neck Shirt
Again, fall is all about layers, layers and more more layers, alright.
This concept is intended to make it easier for you to adapt to the season’s constantly changing weather conditions, although it can be confusing to determine how to go about dressing this way. The first step is to begin with a base layer, like a long-sleeve thermal V-neck, which should become the piece you put on as soon as you roll out of bed in the morning. After that, depending on the temperature, you’ll want to add one or two more pieces -- no more. This method works well, so stick with it whether you’re going for a more downtown feel or you’re aiming for something a little dressier

 ACCESSORIES : LEATHER and METAL

To carry an urban theme through your look, your accessories should incorporate leather and metal hardware. Crafted from smooth black leather and finished with a pewter buckle, its a great choice for giving an edge to everyday ensembles
