1. Layer Up
As the Dapperlounge knows, each layer needs to be able to stand on its own. This way you'll have options in case of bad weather.
2. Invest in a tweed jacket
Wear it with corduroys or do like Dcimo and wear it with your trusty chinos.
3. Everyman needs a denim shirt.
As Markdeguzman shows us, a denim shirt under a jacket is a simple and effective way to dress down a look.
4. Dark denim is a must have
As seen here with Siu_Yan23, throw on a blazer with your jeans and you'll be ready to go anywhere.
5. Try a down vest instead of a blazer
Down vests like this one on Ankit15 are a nice departure from a blazer when the temperature drops.
After AustinGottron showed us such fine examples of cold weather style, it only made sense that we ask him for some tips. Click through this slideshow for his tips and some examples of guys from #HGQRU? already living by Gottron's rules. Take some notes, then test them out and upload your finest look to our Fall Style Challenge. With a $3,000 custom suit on the line, why wouldn't you take part?
