Vincent C's "way to be".

Gucci fall-winter 2012. Here is a very east coast look by Gucci I like quite a lot. I’ve heard mixed things on layers. Some say they’re great, others not so much. I personally love the look of a well layered outfit. And come winter time, especially in places where it actually gets cold, you will be thankful for every last one of them when that biting chill kicks in.

And for those not yet on the Gucci budget, some easy ways to build this look. 

• Men’s pea coat - $75-155
• Men’s sweater vest - $55
• White button down - $125
• Slim fit flat front slacks - 100$
• Oxford shoe - $110

Now for those of you looking to go above and beyond

• These would also look quite good with such an outfit. 

I’m always a fan of longer coats. A classic peacoat is always a great choice in fall-winter wear. This is a very stylish casual look.

Make it yourself

• Peacoat
• T shirt
• Jeans
• Shoes

This is from the Fall 2012 Billy Reid collection, and it is gorgeous. That dark color scheme just fits SO well. This outfit screams turn of the century gentleman. Man they had it together back then; class all the way.
