On Saturday, Scott Schuman aka The Sartorialist and Garance Dore visited Philly for a book signing at The Barnes Foundation. Philadelphians put their best threads forth and wore some awesome ensembles inspired by Fall 2012’s biggest trends, leather, black and gold, camo, over-sized jackets, and pattern mixing among others. It was really inspiring to see all these fashion-conscious young people in one room.

Style Shots—Beau & Co. Chambray Pt III

That crisp fall air has arrived! We’re continuing our chambray series with bespoke menswear brand Beau & Co. Now you gentlemen get to layer up and transition summer staples into fall.

Michael Beaumont says,

The chambray shirt is again a great choice for this time of year as when worn underneath a knitted garment or a blazer, the cloth is very good at retaining warmth. We’ve paired the shirt with a pair of trim dusky blue chinos, a navy Beau & Co. merino wool v-neck sweater, and a pair of tan British lace up shoes.

Paring multiple shades of complimentary blues is something we’re particularly fond of this season, it’s great for all skin tones, and works well with most colors of shoes and belts you’ll have in the closet at this time of year. Wear this outfit to the store, a date, or even work on a Friday.

Summer 2012’s fashion consisted of a lot of intense color blocking and neon colors, Fall 2012 is way more subdued with trends like leather, gold and burgundy dominating. This statement peplum top from Zara nicely channels Fall’s opulent noir trend.

This look is styled with a lot of gold accessories; some vintage, some real and some costume, the more the better! Fall’s big plum color trend is channeled in the nail color. Your nail color is an accessory too, play it up!
