Ted Baker has got you covered.
Looking good and dressing like a true gentleman with a flair in fashion doesn’t just come instantly, nor can you learn it but what you can do is take some style pointers from brands that have been dressing well-groomed men for years and know what they are taking about. Ted Baker, the British menswear brand had announced their Autumn/Winter 2014 style report and its worth taking some notes if you are a little clueless and want to be in trend and on point in the style department this season.
Firstly, shearling and all things luxury like cashmere knitwear and wool suits are a great investment this season as you’ll not only feel good but look good as well. A high quality investment piece will truly stand the test of time and will be keeping you looking sartorial ready for many seasons to come.

Enough of being timid and sticking to monochromes and dull colours as its time to go bold or go home this season with prints, bold hues and some colour blocking. Bold knitwear paired with an understated shirt is always a good start and sometimes a pop of colour in your ensemble goes a long way.
