In Preparation...Style Alert - Americano

Milan fashion week has just started as they wrap-up day #2. In preparation for my voyage to Italy I can't help to think of a few staple items that will be coming along with me for the ride. These items can all be find at one of my favorite retailers J.CREW. It's fall and what better way to enter the season with a luxurious Italian cashmere sweater. There are few that make my list, but my absolutely favorite is the Henley, it's casual, cool and yet sophisticated: 

Slim Cashmere V-Neck Sweater $225

Cashmere Cable Sweater $298

Cashmere Henley Hoodie $298

To accompany these beautiful sweaters are these sun-faded chinos which are available in various fits...personally the slim fit does me fine. I love these colors:

484 Fit in Deep Peacock $75

484 Fit in Copper Clay $75

For the most part of my trip I plan to be as casual and relax as possible, as my friend JH always says, "easy...breezy" without the beautiful covergirl part, lol...but I do love a long sleeve tee that's soft to the touch and fits just right. Perfect for the fall season. To finish up the look and to help block those harmful UV's hitting my eyes a classic pair of Ray-Ban's compliment any look or style. That's how this american boy is going to do it in Italy...till next time!

Slim Broken-In Long-Sleeve Tee $29.50
