Chicer Than Skinny Jeans—Every Guy With Cool Style is Wearing These 5 Fall Denim Styles Instead

I’m thrilled to say hello to everyone who’s reading this and to share with you a glimpse into some of the insights I’ve gained through my 15-year career in fashion. I’m a Canadian-born fashion enthusiast and style expert, currently working for luxury retailer Holt Renfrew, which, for those who know, is Canada’s fashion mecca! I’m excited to share with you some exciting stories from my travels and my personal styling tips that I apply to all aspects of my life.

September is one of those months that signals a shift into a new way of dressing. As we hang up our summer staples, we start to think about what we need to buy for the fall season. For me, fall fashion is my favorite time of year. As someone who’s always on the go, I can’t live without a trusty pair of jeans. I don’t think I’m ready to step into the skinny trend once again, but I recently tried on five different fits that will carry me through the next couple of months. I like to have fun with my style while simultaneously looking clean and put together. Below, I've shared some of my favorite denim styles out there right now that achieve just that. In addition to my perfectly curated collection of fall denim, I've also shared how I am styling each pair. The hope is that these looks will serve as your cheat sheet to easy and stylish fall dressing all season long.

These are Frame’s "L’Homme Slim" jeans. I love a charcoal wash. I’ve styled these back to a crisp blue striped shirt from The Row and a wool overcoat from Our Legacy.

I love fall sweaters. If I’m on set, I like to be comfortable but look put together. Typically, studios are heavily air-conditioned, so I’ll be in cozy, thick sweaters, and I always love a pop of color.
