#trendingtopics With innovative technology on the rampage, men are connected to the world at a constant. Social media, networking, and entertainment are always on hand through smart phones and tablets, and as a result men are being exposed to fashion like never before. They can see what celebrities, professional athletes, icons, and other guys are doing and wearing through facebook, twitter, and instagram. They have easy access to celebrity photos, trend updates, and influential events through apps for magazines and websites such as Esquire, Huffington Post, Playboy, and Vice. The music industry has historically had a huge impact on men’s fashion choices, and these technologies have just made that impact stronger. Through Itunes, Pandora, Spotify, and Grooveshark, men can easily explore new music, bands, artists, album art, venues, and upcoming concerts. Because of this never-ending exposure to the fashion world, men are beginning to experiment with fashion. In fall/winter 2014, men will be wearing bold prints, pops of bright color with their classic sartorial khaki, gray, and navy blue ensembles. They will be fashion conscious everywhere-from the bedroom to the beach to the gym, and matching lots of loud accessories to their outfits.

Fall/winter 2014 will see men playing with prints, patterns, colors, textures, and materials like an Xbox 360. As they explore fashion, they will explore all these aspects of it and experiment profusely. Look out for classic ensembles spruced up with a bold accent-khakis and a sweater with a leapord print scarf, or an ikat tailored suit.

Men work out to look good. They always have, and they always will. Typical male behavior involves physical training, participating in sports and athletic activities, as well as attending sporting events and keeping up-to-date on their favorite teams and players.
