Winter LookBook #1 - For Him

No, I'm not biased, fellas :-) !! Here's my take on what your winter LookBook should be this year. Snug fit, sharp silhouette, and, an overall clean look - that's what sums up the style-story for you.

You have more colors to choose from this winter. Girls have given away on their once-exclusive monopoly rights over pink and red :-) And, pink does not necessarily have to be a shocking pink floral something! Think of candy colors or pastel shades when I say pink and try to make it work with other deeper, darker solid base colors.

A faded pink front-open cardigan or a muffler can go well with your regular blue denims.

Scarves are still scoring on. Solids, checks look cool. If you know how to wrap it, you can make your simple denim-and-tee look to-die-for :-) !! But, our city doesn't really give us that much scope to put the scarf-look to the maximum use - so, wait for super-chilly nights or year-end bashes :-) !!

Team up silk/linen shirts (white and black very much permitted here, or in rich chocolate shade) in sharp cuts with well-cut trousers. Go in for a cool belt to pull off the otherwise-common look. Complete the look with a slim-fit short linen blazer and you are good to go!

Invest in a well-stitched one, like this one with subtle dhoti pleats - great for evening parties or formal office-gatherings! This, I think, is a somewhat practical take on our very own jodhpuris - imagine a little more volume on the upper side-pleats and it could have been straight from a Raghavendra Rathore ramp!

If you are into the mood for a little fun-and-flirt in a la Zac Efron mode, get a single-loop necktie. Wear your glasses or go for fake thick-rimmed ones for a college-kid-meets-nerd look - second looks guaranteed :-) !!

Let me know if you find these looks useful, interesting, or a bit impractical to pull off in Kolkata :-) ..
