ALL IN THE DETAILS: Pastels and Floral Are Back and Better Than Ever

Who says you have to pack away your floral patterns and pastel clothing when winter rolls around? Personally, I think there is no better time to rock them than when the air gets cold and outside gets bland and dreary. Nothing better than a good floral print or spring time pastel to brighten your day and mood.

This Fashionisto is not letting a little bit of snow on the ground and frostbite in the air put a damper on his outfit. He is sporting Nantucket red khakis from Vineyard Vines, cuffed at the bottom to show off his brown boots from American Eagle Outfitters. I think that cuffing the bottom of jeans or khakis adds so much dimension to a look and is a totally timeless style. The boots really dressed this outfit down a little bit for a more casual, class-appropriate look. The Nantucket red khakis are definitely a bold move and not something you would expect to see around campus this time of year, but work perfectly with his look and personality.

With those khakis he is wearing a navy blue, floral button-down shirt. This shirt complements the pants perfectly, and makes this wintertime ensemble not scream “Hibernating for the winter!” This small, springtime detail makes this outfit to die for and so unique.

For accessories he wore a simple, silver watch with a stripped band. I love the mixture of stripes and floral together. Mixing and matching patterns is another style I am in love with! Patterns are so much fun, why limit yourself to just one? On top, this Fashionisto wore a black peacoat from Kenneth Cole for both warmth as well as style. This jacket really added some class to his outfit. His last accessory consisted of Ray-Ban Clubmaster sunglasses for the final touch.

All together this outfit is definitely one for the books. This Fashionisto took a springtime look and made it work in the frigid, New England weather.
