Armani Collezioni Knit Jacket

Fall is my second favorite season because of the myriad of sartorial options that it brings with it. You have layering options, outerwear, vests, boots – pieces that get most mileage out of colder weather. Sometimes, the best way to feel good and stay toasty is via a great jacket. 
Right now, this wonderful piece has all my attention. The asymmetrical zip closure is on trend and so fresh giving this a vibrant, updated look that is sure to jazz up any outfit. The grey wool is classic and will go with most everything in your closet. 
What I am digging most is the velvet trim on the collar, seam and elbow patches. This hit of luxury is eye catching and so pleasing. The

Armani Collezioni Chevron Sweater

My favorite colors are grey and black (although black is technically not a color). They are quite fail-proof and will work for most every work or play outfit. However, this piece is an exception.

This geometric print is neither flattering nor attractive. It looks like a photocopy machine printout on steroids. I don’t know if it’s the sheen from the silk fabric or the black and white contrast but I can’t stop looking at it when I really should. Just like a train wreck.

Find this for US$285 at Bergdorf Goodman.      …

Armani Collezioni Striped Dress Shirt



 

 
   
 

This handsome striped shirt from Armani Collezioni will look good with jeans or tailored pants. The contrast point collar and barrel cuffs gives it a board-room feel while its clean lines and slightly trimmer modern fit ensures it doesn’t fall into the stuffy category. With a contrast single-button, this italian cotton navy shirt is a good example of crisp, simple subtly. Get this for US$295 at Saks Fifth Avenue.
