Off with his fine fashion head! Okay, we retract that ruling only because of what these male models were adorned with for the Dolce & Gabbana Menswear Fall/Winter 2014 show. The fashions and accessories were medieval inspired channeling the Norman Kingdom of Sicily. We were especially blown away by the intricately designed accessories from gloves to shoes. We would love to get our paws on a pair of those jewel encrusted hand gloves that we believe is fit for any king OR queen.

Fall 2014 Streetstyle: Beanie Hats
Fashion doesn’t always have to be all pain and no gain. This season you do not need to freeze your couture tail off in the name of fall/winter style. Case in point, some may feel that a hat may detract or lessen the drama of their ensemble. However, when done correctly hats are a great accessory to not only keep you warm, but fully complete your outfit.
Being a Cheap Can Be Chic girl beanies are one of my favorite hats to wear once the temperature takes a dip. They are very reasonably priced and look great with sweaters, trench coats, fur and matches well with scarves. Moreover, since they are normally solid color accessories you don’t have to worry about a blending issue. A beanie will easily enhance yet not dominate an already great look.
Get Football Chic
Being born into Raider nation is actually pretty cool and exciting. We are the most loyal and slightly scary fans that you could ever come across and our fashion choices highly support that. Nevertheless, you can show your spirit for any NFL team you favor by wearing jerseys, hats, gloves and personalized shirts enhanced by team colors. If you typically do not want to attend a Raider’s game with skulls on (even though we feel you haven’t truly lived until you do) we have found another option. We spotted a super cute Raiders silver and black top that was layered on top of a raiders wife beater. Relaxed NFL chic at its finest! Want it, love it, desire it as much as us? Well, then check out Fanatics.com to see all of their gear for the Raiders and other NFL teams. Game on!
Make the Scarf Come Alive!
Let’s make the scarf come alive! Choose a color that matches what you are wearing but not exactly the same. If pairing a scarf with a flowing dress, coat or loose-fitting clothing add a belt to add dimension. However, put your belt a little above your waist so that your waist looks substantially smaller.
Fashion Spy: Of course this look can work in any season, but this fall and winter this trend is a must! We spied this fashion look at the Burberry Prorsum Fall/Winter 2014 show during London Fashion Week.
