One of the most frequent requests is for looks that transition well from the office to off-duty hours after work. Here’s an example that makes use of a basic menswear color palate and some well-placed accessories.

Plaid Blazer Tan Turtleneck - He Spoke Style

I’ve mentioned before that this was going to be the season of the turtleneck for me. And I’ve been loving it as an alternative to a button-up and tie under a blazer. It’s the perfect combination of dressy and casual chic. Appropriate for the office as well as an after work drinks date. A seamless transition from day to night.

When it’s super cold out, a silk scarf obviously won’t keep you as warm as a heavy wool number. But for those milder days, it’s the perfect finishing touch.

We're back with the Ask He Spoke Style series. Travel and the holidays disrupted production for a bit, but we're back on track. I thought I'd kick off 2015 by getting a little personal and sharing 15 things that you probably didn't know about me.

I love hearing your questions. As always, send them along via email, the comments, or via Twitter or Instagram with the hashtag #AskHSS. And be sure to subscribe to the YouTube Channel to be the first to see new videos. And actually, we're going to begin producing a couple of YouTube-only series', so even more incentive to subscribe!
