This season brings out the best in people’s wardrobe: parkas, circle scarves, button-ups, jeans, beanies and cardigans. Autumn is finally here, or at least, it was the day I photographed this Fashionisto. He has the right cuts, colors and details perfect for this weather.

How To: Gentlemen, this outfit is easy to replicate so long as you pay attention to the details. The perfect alternative to a button-up is simply a long-sleeve shirt and what better way to stand out than having shoulder pads to accentuate it. Pair your long-sleeve shirt with a good pair of dark-washed denim jeans and don’t forget to cuff it at the bottom! Be bold and polish off your outfit with black lace-up combat boots.
