If you’re clothes fit properly, this is a very easy look to pull off, and it’s great for many different occasions.

#3: Brown Layers

One easy way to combine colors is to pick just two colors, but use different shades of one of them (in this case, light and dark brown).

Dark brown and camel – which is really just light brown – go perfectly with inky dark blue denim.

A solid wool crewneck sweater over a black watch plaid button down is a tried and true layering combo.

#4: With a Tan Raincoat

Dark jeans also look great with lighter colored outerwear, like a classic tan raincoat.

Like a topcoat, the raincoat can be dressed up or down. Here, it looks right at home over a flannel work shirt and henley with dark brown leather service boots.

#5: With a Cardigan

The wool cardigan is one of the best middle layers you can wear during fall and winter.

Above, the dark green cardigan goes perfectly with the dark wash jeans, as green and blue are analogous colors (close to each other on the color wheel).

Throw in some earth tones and a lighter green scarf, and you’ve got yourself a refined-yet-rugged getup.

#6: With a Waistcoat

The waistcoat, even if it’s part of a three piece suit, can be worn separately (apart from the jacket and trousers).

Paired with a white t-shirt, dark jeans, brown suede boots and a couple of classic accessories, the vest produces a classic, rugged look.

#7: Olive Jacket

Almost any shades of blue and green will look good together, but you really can’t go wrong with dark blue and olive.

This combo works especially well with lighter shades of blue and neutrals like white and grey.

In this case, the olive jacket is sort of a mix between a work shirt and casual sport coat, and it looks perfect with a light blue Oxford, dark wash jeans and white canvas sneakers.
