Men's Fall Trends! Cardigan Classics

The sexy new menswear staple for Fall? V-neck knit cardigans.
Sleek, comfortable and warm, cardigans will be your go-to knitwear piece as the weather gets colder. And believe me, it's worth the investment. (Plus I secretly love how it falls over the shoulders and back. Hot!) Why, you ask?
(1) It's as flattering as it is versatile. A cardigan looks as brilliant layered over a dress shirt and tie as it does with a white tee and jeans.
Kanye's white tee, chain and jeans bring a casual vibe to his cardigan.
Layered over a dress shirt and tie, David Beckham's cardigan has a preppy, polished appeal.
(2) It gives your summer clothes leverage. You can layer a cardigan over your beloved polos, short-sleeve tees and dress shirts and wear them long into the Fall season.
Pharrell gets more wear out of his white polo shirt by wearing a cable-knit cardigan on top.
See how other stylish celebs rocked the look below, plus scroll all the way down for affordable options from some of your favorite brands.
But beware: this is NOT your grandfather's cardigan. Bold colors and contrast lining give it a fresh, updated feel.
Kisses,
Coutura

NEW!! Sonia Rykiel for H&M

Hey Glamazons!
After blowing us all away with the Jimmy Choo for H&M collection, H&M has announced their newest designer line, Sonia Rykiel for H&M. For the first time ever, this collaboration will be lingerie-focused. Sonia Rykiel's collection promises to be as modern and romantic as you'd expect from the red-headed Queen of Parisian chic. It will be available in 1,500 H&M stores worldwide---and Sonia Rykiel boutiques!---on December 5, 2009. Get ready for wearable, elegant lingerie that can stand alone or be layered underneath your everyday clothes (trust me on this! I go crazy for lace peeking out of a cardigan).
Another first? Sonia Rykiel will then follow up to her lingerie collection with a knitwear line for women and girls (1.5 to 8 years old), accompanied by playful accessories, on February 20, 2010.
Amazing! Can't wait...
Kisses,
Coutura
