Yes yes, we know it's been unseasonably balmy of late in our city by the bay. But mark our words, fashionistas -- winter, it comes. And the mark of an impeccably-styled gent or lady is their preparedness for any situation; cloudy, sunny, rainy -- or more likely when speaking of San Francisco, anything in between. To that end: our Winter Looks issue. It's chockful of everything you need to look luxe in low temps, from magnificent menswear, to bike outfits you can pedal and preen in. We even enlisted the help of some of the Bay's most fashionable folks to show off what they wear in cold and rainy climes. Best of all: most of it can be found right here in the Bay Area. Shopping bags away!
