Guy Day Friday: 3 Trends For Fall

This just may be my first post dedicated to men. It's by special request, and I think it is about time. Whether you are one of my male readers, or a girl shopping for the men in your life, welcome to the first edition of Guy Day Friday. There are many trends for men this season. Here are three of them that most men can relate to and enjoy wearing.  

~ The Zipper Cardigan ~

Zippers continue to rule on men's knitwear. The quarter zip reigned for a year now. They are still "in" but  the cardigan has a different look. Swapping out buttons for a zipper, makes the sweater more 2026, and a bit more hip.

Micah Cardigan

Made in Italy of 100% wool. It's navy, which looks very smart with black trousers. Available in sizes up to XXXL $160

Sezane Paris

Cotton Bomber Sweater Jacket

This style plays double duty as a jacket and a sweater. The Indigo blue color is a  good look with denim and even black. $220 30% off will be applied at checkout.

Banana Republic

Cashmere Full Zip Cardigan

Made from Mongolian Cashmere. It's a modern look that can be layered, dressed up, or worn casually. Available in sizes up to XXXL.

A $278 Value for $99.90

Quince

Reversible Cashmere Sweater

It's like getting two sweaters for less than the price of one. Made from the same Mongolian cashmere as above, but a bit heavier. Said to be super soft with a  beautiful drape. $475 Value Priced at $200.

Quince

~ Leather Blouson Jackets ~

A silly name for what you and I call bomber jackets. We haven't seen them in a bit, soI was interested. There is something about a guy in leather....

The Larren Jacket

Created in sheepskin leather, this jacket had me at the plum color. Also available in black. $475
Sezane

Michael Kors Double Zip Jacket

This textured leather jacket strikes the perfect balance between timeless and edgy. $399

Suede Bomber Jacket

Included in the mix because suede is made from leather. And isn't the color beautiful? A $599 value for $200

Quince

Helmut Lang Leather Bomber
This jacket features a concealed zipper and very luxe leather. $1,398

Neiman Marcus

~ Cotton Plaid Shirts ~

Chic Candles For Fall

It's dark by 7 PM in the Hudson Valley, so I find myself reaching for a candle early these days. It sets the mood for a glass of wine and a little time to relax. 

Jo Malone Ginger & Biscuit Candle

Gingerbread anyone? Her candles are divine and come in the nicest glass containers.

Jo Malone  

Hotel Lobby Nappa Valley

Pairs well with your favorite glass of vino. It's really fall in a glass with notes of aged oak barrels, ripe fruits, and winding vines. What a great host gift. 

Hotel Lobby

Spiced Chestnut Figural Candle

• With notes of spiced chestnut, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, and more, this candle is an aromastherapy experience for any home.
• Williams Sonoma

Pumpkin Seed & Sandalwood Candle

Lafco candles are truly luxurious. The fragrances are true and unique. They have a long burn and sensational scents 

Lafco New York

Homecourt Balsam Fireplace Candle

This candle offers a cozy, autumnal blend of fresh evergreen woods, warm juniper, spice, cedarwood smoke, sweet cardamom, and salted amber. Now doesn't this sound perfect?

Homecourt

Emilia Candle

Almost too pretty to light. This candle makes an elegant and memorable gift. The scent sounds delicious. The scent notes include: Ginger cider, prosecco, cypress, white thyme, bergamot, fig leaf, eucalyptus.

Pottery Barn

Hearth Three Wick Candle

It's a warming blend of rich oud, frankencense, and smoky embers. You will almost hear the crackling fireplace. I love the modern pattern on the vessel and gift box.

Nest New York

Gather Mini Candle

Invited to an outdoor fall fest? Bring one or two of these. The presentation is so good, and the scent is warm and woodsy with Santal.

Anthropologie

Leather & Tonka

I am intrigued by this candle and others made by Quince.  Compared to most luxe candles, they are reasonably priced at $24.  Notes of lavender, clary sage, almond bitter, tonka and vanilla. A very chic combination of scents.

Quince

Apotheke Charcoal

One of my favorite scented candles I have ever experienced. The black glass vessel adds the chic.  The scents of burnt maple, rosemary, cedarwood, smoky embers, tomato skin, and faint cinnamon add fabulous. Trust me on this one.
