Workwear, even if you're not a hard worker.

The season is completely in autumn. If you feel a chill in the air and want to put on new clothes, I recommend "over alls". Instead of the standard indigo or hickory, I recommend ivory with a slight yellow tinge. This color doesn't look like workwear and is surprisingly easy to incorporate into your regular outfits. Match it with a cardigan in a similar color, and, you see, you have a work style that blends in with your life without feeling out of place in the room. It would also be good to try layering the neck with a shawl collar, regular collar, or turtleneck.

Lee's coveralls are called "loco jackets. Loco" is an abbreviation of "locomotive," meaning "railroad," and in other words, it is a workwear born for railroad workers. Among these, the one to choose for this fall is the brown duck. The subdued color blends well with fall styles, and the tightly packed duck will keep out the cold winds. It's a tough fabric that won't be dented by the slightest thing, so it's great for tasks like washing the car. The true beauty of the Rocco Jacket can be appreciated after it has been used hard without worrying about stains or rubbing, and after it has developed a bite and the color has faded.

Wearing high quality items casually, or combining items of different genres. This swing is the real appeal of fashion. In this coordination, it is all about the material. The denim "painted pants" are paired with a cashmere half-zip knit. These two fabrics may seem like opposites, but that's why the toughness and ruggedness of the "painted pants" are accentuated to create a chic work style. It's what we call "soft conquers hard.

When it comes to denim-on-denim, the combination of a jacket and pants is the standard look. However, what we would like to propose here is the all-in-one "Unionalls. It is workwear that can be coordinated with just one piece, without the need to think about matching the colors of the top and bottom. If that is not enough, add a denim coat over it. If that's not enough, try wearing a denim coat on top of the denim coat. This will give you a fresh balance of denim-on-denim style with a mode atmosphere.
