Young men’s style today is all about the layering trend. Our teenage model Robert is a perfect example. We’ve combined all the elements of texture, pattern, and color in one fashionable look! First off we started with putty color corduroy slacks from Land’s End. These pants are casual as well as season-less, and the color can work as a backdrop for just about any other color. It’s a nice change from the more typical blue jeans, or brown, gray, and black slacks. A graphic print t-shirt featuring Marvel comic characters was a great trendy discovery as it creates a nice counterpoint to the textured cardigan sweater from Cignal. Look for items that have some great detail like the epaulet at the shoulder of this sweater. What really makes this look stand up and stand out is the ethnic inspired, multicolor scarf. A scarf like this creates a European feel, and is always a solid fashion statement. Like all young men, Robert has an amazing collection of sneakers, so we used his own piped-in turquoise Nikes to finish off the look. There is no doubt about it, layering is a fantastic way to make the most of your clothing budget while looking like a million bucks like our model!
