One thing we know about our viewers is that you guys really "get it". We received 100s of submissions for our call to be featured in this video highlighting YOUR best winter outfit ideas. To say it was difficult to pare it down to just 40 would be an understatement. Did you make the cut? (Or the my Top 10?) Watch and enjoy!
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you are having a great 2021 so far. I know you've been waiting for
this video for quite a while, but just two things I want to mention before we jump into the outfits.
Number one, I was completely overwhelmed by the number of submissions that we got.
Hundreds of you guys sent in outfits to be featured in this video. And then number two,
I was extremely impressed with the quality of what was submitted and just how great all the
outfits were, which made it really difficult to choose which ones to feature. I'm going to go
through them in no particular order, though I did make a list of some of my favorites, so you'll
want to stick around till the end of the video to see if you made it onto my top 10. All right,
let's get going now with our outfits. Okay, here we go. Up first, this is from A Gentleman's World
from Lahore, Pakistan. Far, far away. Thanks for submitting it. I love this outfit. The
safari jacket, belted safari jacket looks really awesome. I love the earth tones between the brown
and the dark green turtleneck and the cream trousers. Really well put together. I love also
the herringbone of the safari jacket, so a really nice outfit there. It's thinking.
There we go. Okay, here is number two. This is Karen from At The Thrift Ensemble on Instagram.
This is a neat take on a classic look. I like the duffel coat, and I particularly like the color of
the duffel coat. Usually you see them in like a navy color, but I think this is a really nice
contrast to the dressiness of the outfit to have a duffel coat
on top of it like that. Nice look. Next look here, this is Iman. I'm sorry if I got it wrong.
Again, another great belted safari jacket, and this color is really, really cool. I can't tell
from the picture if it's a deep burgundy or like a chocolate color, but it's a really nice piece,
and the scarf is just a really nice accent. It's got a little bit of extra layering underneath,
so that's a cool look. Here we go. This is number four. This is VD. I believe his name is Vlad.
Correct me if I'm wrong. He's vdstylepoint on Instagram. This is such a cool look. I mean,
you can never go wrong with a flannel Prince of Wales check during the wintertime, but the real
awesome thing about this outfit, I mean, aside from the awesome plaid jacket,
is the mustard colored turtleneck, which is a really, really great. I don't know. I would even
call it like a hero piece of this outfit, but I also love the addition of the white trousers.
Very unexpected winter choice, but one that stands out in a really great way. Look number five. Now,
I have to say that as soon as I opened this photo up, I could not help but smile. It brought me so
much joy, and you can really see it in his face. Really nice outfit. I love the cable knit cardigan
again with the camel colored coat over. Really well put together, and I think we're going to
be seeing kind of a trend here with the camel coat. It's always a good choice in the wintertime.
Nice hat also. Here we have Casper. Nice car, by the way. Again, a really simple look,
and two things I actually want to point out here. Well, three. Two obvious, one less obvious.
Let's start with the most obvious ones. The boots, really great addition there, and then the olive
coat is nice as well. I like adding in those earth tones, but the one thing I really want
to point out, and if you can see here, he's got the shirt under the turtleneck, which from time
to time I will do. It's not a style move that everyone can pull off, but I think it looks
really good here. Here we have Osman, our seventh look. This is a really nice outfit. I like the
color of the sweater layer underneath. I think it really pops in a nice way. The coat is really
cool. I wish I could zoom in and see the texture of it, because I feel like it has a really nice
texture as well, and I like using the scarf here, the silk scarf, as an accent to everything. It
brings in the color of the tie really well on the end, so that's really nice, and the thing to know
about scarves, which Osman obviously knows, is that they're both practical and aesthetic, and
using it very well here in an aesthetic setting, or in an aesthetic way, aesthetic setting. Number
eight. I don't have this gentleman's name, but on Instagram he is artismo, so really nice simple
look. The tie creating some contrast with the green against all of the blues, and I like how
the scarf brings in, kind of ties together all the navy colors that he has working in the outfit.
Number nine. This is Trey. Nice cable knit sweater, perfect for winter, and then I like the
kind of more casual bomber jacket that he has over that, again in a tan color. Nice pop when you have
like a darker overall outfit there. Nice. Number 10. This is Jonathan doing a really cool monochromatic
thing with brown. I love brown, so obviously I love this look. One of my favorite parts about it, other
than the layered puffer vest, is the snow white turtleneck. Such a great option. I think white,
as I said already, is such a underrated winter, unexpected winter color option. Our next photo
here, this is Johan. He is at sartorial underscore fin with two n's on Instagram. When I first saw
this look, I was like, oh he's wearing a double-breasted suit, but then when I look closer,
it's like I can see that it's actually a double-breasted waistcoat. So a three-piece suit
here. That color flannel suit is so classic for winter. Two-inch cuff. This is like such a well
put together look, and I love the coat. Looks like it's a houndstooth pattern, but such a great
contrast with the solid of the shirt, and then some nice pattern mixing with the stripe of the tie.
This is Stefan, our 12th picture here. I love the look. Monochromatic. Gray boots kind of give it a
more winter look and feel with the scarf. Turtleneck, you can't go wrong, and this
setting is really cool. So if you're watching, Johan, let me know where this is. This is really
nice. Oh sorry, Stefan, excuse me. All right, one thing I want to mention, this is Edvard,
and one thing I want to mention here is that when he sent this image in, he said that he has a lot
of social media shyness, so I appreciate him sending this in. This is a great, for me, a really
great execution of like casual or dressing up a cat more casual look. So I've got the white sneakers,
khaki pants, and then the turtleneck is a great way to to kind of elevate that a little bit.
Number 14 here, we have Christian wearing some high-rise mid-gray flannel trousers,
perfect for the season. Dark turtleneck, and one thing I like about this, it's hard to tell from
the picture here, but I can't tell if this is like a top coat that you have or like a more,
like a work shirt or something. Either way, it looks really good, and I like the juxtaposition
of all the items that you have here. Here we have Farhad, who looks like he might have been shopping
for a coat here. If you were, I hope you bought that because it looks really good on you.
Chukka boots are nice, really great casual outfit. 16 here is John, and got the shearling
kind of more casual coat. I can't tell if it's denim or not, but the rolled jeans. And then
what I really want to point out with with this look is the way that the suede boots complement
the or bring in the color of the turtleneck that he's wearing. So this is a really great
casual look, and again kind of elevated by the turtleneck. Here we have, this is number 17,
and this is Daniel. Don't know if this is Daniel's goat, or he was just visiting a goat farm, but
I included this because I really like, it's just, it's super casual. And there's a goat, so it's like
a cool photo. And then the hunter boots, which I've considered for myself, but I've never pulled
a trigger on them. I only have like these L.L. Bean boots and moccasins. The boots are kind of
difficult to put on, though they work, and the moccasins aren't really great for walking in the
snow. So if you like them, let me know in the comments, and I might consider picking up a pair
for myself. Here we have 18, and this is Julian. Camel coat, double-breasted, can't go wrong there.
I personally like the addition of the hat as an accent on top. And then the boots, and then the
best part here is the patterned sweater. I can't tell if it's a Fair Isle, but it looks like a very
seasonal pattern, so really like that. Here we have Jamin, or Hamin, or Hamin. I'm sorry if I'm not
pronouncing your name right, but this is a really nice look. I like the lapels of the jacket, brown.
It looks like it's in a nice heavy tweed or wool. And not everyone can pull off orange, but I think
you do it really well. And this outfit in particular, the tie really kind of brings
everything together and makes it a little more interesting than it would if it just was like a
like a brown tie or something like that. Here we have number 20, and this is Jake with a very classic
simple outfit. Kind of, I'm thinking of Robert Redford in Three Days of the Condor.
It's just a classic look, and I've been watching a lot of like old Redford movies,
and he has such great style. One thing I like about this that makes it different is the coat,
the pea coat, usually we see them in navy, but this is in a nice olive green, which is a nice change.
And then that earth tone, the way he brought in more earth tones with the brown of the sweater.
And then again, making sure that the boots pull in that color is a really great option. I think
I think they're chukka boots. Those are nice suede chukka boots. Here we go, number 21.
This is Long. Not everyone can pull off a suit like this, double-breasted in a wine or burgundy
color, but I think it looks awesome on you. And I love the loafers. The fit is really good,
and the white turtleneck really kind of makes it seasonal in a very festive way.
Okay, here we have number 22, Drake's Collection. I don't know if your name is Drake or you like,
love Drake's clothing and accessories, but either way, this is a really nice casual look.
What really makes it for me is the marl on the turtleneck. It gives it a level of depth and
visual interest that I think is really great. You'll have to let us know down in the comments
where that's from. And then I believe those are some Chelsea boots with a nice roll. So really
great elevated, more casual style look here. Number 23 is Nikolas, who looks like he went
shopping at Brooks Brothers from the bag. I like the kind of combination of more casual and dressy
here with the shearling denim jacket and the cardigan underneath. Great layering piece. And
again, I love how you guys are like, kind of pulling in that middle layer with the color of
the shoes. A nice, you have got a really nice, more casual boot here, which I think this whole
outfit is just really well put together in a really easy, casual, elevated casual look that
you could wear. Exactly like if you're going out shopping like you are. Here we have number 24.
Don't know this gentleman's name. He is Sartoriatsa on Instagram. But one thing I really
wanted to point out here is the way he's mixed a more casual jacket with, it looks like more
military inspired. I don't think it's a barber jacket because of the epaulets, but more military
inspired jacket with a classic suited look. I think it's something that I want to
start doing a little bit more myself. I think this is really sort of on trend at the moment,
in a good way. I typically don't like trends, but this is a really nice look and I love the
combination of the two. Here's Daniel with camel overcoat, turtleneck. And then one thing I really
want to point out here that I like that kind of makes this look like a great elevated casual look
is the color of the jeans. Like if you did dark denim, they would kind of blend in a little bit
and dress it up a little bit more. But choosing that sort of mid color denim, I think gives it
a really nice look and it really pops between the turtleneck and the coat and matches really well
with the overall vibe and feel of the boots. Number 26, this is Professor K. Kenney and this
is like such a cool look that I personally cannot pull off, but he does it so well. I like the,
it's kind of like a chalk stripe flannel trouser, but it's more casual I think because of the,
looks like it has a drawstring there. And then the, this shirt has a band collar, which I haven't
seen band collars in quite a while, but this looks really cool. The jacket is, I can't tell if it's
like a, like an over shirt or a jacket or a cardigan with patch pockets, but it looks really nice.
Everything just pulls together really well. And the green, green, the yellow of the beanie kind of
really matches the tan, not matches, but compliments the tan of the pants in a really
great way. So I like this look a lot. Here we have Thomas or Tomas sending this look,
great camel overcoat. Again, we've got some white jeans, I believe, or maybe they're,
maybe they're chinos or kind of a cotton pant, but great. Again, I'll say it again,
a great kind of unexpected winter choice. And then the earth tones with the shirt underneath,
dark green color and the kind of oxblood derby-ish boots, I think, looks really well put together.
This is John showing us how to do the classic menswear uniform with the flannel pants,
navy blazer, striped shirt with a little bit more of a candy stripe, which is a nice choice,
I think. And then the tie, really great overall look. I mean, this is pretty much a masterclass
on how to do that classic menswear uniform look. Here we've got Dewan, hear from Dewan all the
time, and I appreciate you sending in this photo. Really easygoing look here with, you know, just a
sweater. Simple, classic, very well done. Here we have Thorbjorn, I hope I said that right,
with a cool, casual, multi-layered look. I think I'm counting one turtleneck, one
zip-up cardigan, two suit jacket, three, and then jacket, so there's four layers there.
Keeping it casual with the shoes and sneakers, I should say, and again, like,
pulling that color in from the turtleneck, that innermost layer, and I really like the
subtle plaid of the jacket, which really kind of pops against this more muted color scheme.
This is Enish with a classic peacoat, simple scarf tie, black jeans, I used to call them,
I still, I guess I still call them, you know, your alternative dress pant. Really simple,
classic look, well done. Don't know this gentleman's name, although I believe Instagram,
he is Oceans911, that's the number 9 and Bird11. Power suit here, you know, pinstripe, red tie,
you know, totally means business, but I like the addition of the camel, camel coat, just to give it,
maybe dress it down a little bit, if that's even possible, but it's a nice contrast and has a nice
pop to it. Number 33, we've got Martin. I love these trousers that you've got, the layered denim
jacket with a turtleneck underneath, that's such a good, good choice. Again, got a subtle plaid on
overcoat, really pops, keeping it more casual with the sneakers and then a really nice kind of
newsboy hat, which looks great here. Number 34, we have Vanessa, really simple, easy, again,
kind of elevated casual thing going on. I like the turtleneck, the coat is more of like an oatmeal,
kind of grayish color, I guess, maybe a little bit of a marl to it, which, which makes it really pop
against the rest of the outfit. Rolled jeans with boots, can't go wrong with that. Here we have Eric
sending an awesome picture with what I would call like a Hollywood gray, I can't tell if it's a
flannel suit or if it's more of a fresco, but either way, it looks great. It's hard to pull
off, I think sometimes that lighter colored suit, but the addition of the coat is like the color,
the way like the color kind of grades between the suit to the coat is really, really nice. And then
I can't really see, but there is some sort of subtle pattern on the tie, which, I mean, this is
just, this is just such a great, really well put together look with some interesting elements that
stand out in a very subtle way, if that even makes sense. This is Yvonne or Ivan, another great
casual look, white sneakers, light denim jeans, and the two things that like kind of elevate this
are, of course, the more kind of chunky cable-ish turtleneck, and then the marl of the coat, which
is really nice. Color combo is such so classic, but it looks real fresh here, and the kind of
olive green hat really adds something, a little bit of contrast and something unique to it.
I think that works really well with this outfit. Here we have another great execution of like the
classic menswear uniform with a little bit more prep. So we've got that Glenn Platt or Prince of
Wales check jacket, that's really nice. Gotta know where you got that, so leave a comment down below.
I really like the fox tie, that kind of emerald green color really pops. The brown, the lighter
color browns that you have, it really works so well with. And instead of like gray trousers,
you kind of went with like an oatmeal or like, I think they call it like biscuit, that's a really
nice choice. This is a really great look. I might have to cop that at some point. Here is 38, this
is Will coming at us with a super casual look. Again, like the best, like most interesting or
one of the most interesting things about this look is the like fisherman's kind of cable knit,
cream colored sweater, always a great option. And then keeping it more casual with, I believe those
are dark denim, black jeans and the brown of the boots really pairing well with the brown of the
jacket. Super cool. Like this outfit a lot. Here we have, I've looked for your name,
but I couldn't find it. But this is Gent of DC, which I live in Baltimore, so he's not too far
away. And if you're, if you're watching this video, like send me a note or send a,
leave a comment because we should hook up at some point. I like this look because of the use of the
chunky shawl collar cardigan as an alternative to a blazer. You've got like a really dressy
pant in the chalk stripe. I've assumed that's flannel and the Navy turtleneck. This is a great,
like, it's, it's just a really good, like dressed down, more casual laid back kind of
sophisticated way to do it with the, the cardigan layered over that like that. But what,
what I really like here is like the extra step that he went to take with the pocket square to
make it really show, to really show you that this is like, he's wearing it as a blazer alternative.
I've never seen that before. So it's really cool. Really cool here. And then our last outfit here,
I had to include, this is our good friend Han. Han is like, Han is a super fan. I love,
I love his comments all the time. If you, if you watch the videos, you've definitely seen
Han's comments. He sent this in really nice overcoat Burberry scarf. I think he said it was,
this was a trip he took recently. So hope that you had a good time there when you were there.
Thanks for sending it in. So I know that I said I had rounded up my top 10 favorite,
and that is actually over on the website. There's a link to it right over there. So hop over there
and see if you made it onto the top 10 list. We're going to keep doing this. So from time to time,
I think maybe the next time we'll be in spring, but thank you to everyone who sent outfits in
and we'll see you over on the website and on the next video.
