    Brown Shoes and Grey Suit... with a black tie??

    That's sort of where my problem was too. The black tie is a skinnier tie ~2.25 inches (most of mine are 3.25+) and the contrast looks good with the gray and white. I would do navy, but the only two navy ties i have are dotted. I love the look of the two pindot navy ties, but, having the black...

    So I have a 3 piece light grey suit that I love, and the color is perfect to go with medium brown shoes...But if i were to pair the suit with a white shirt and black tie, would the brown shoes and belt remain appropriate?

    Campaign/ Election Style

    That sounds like a good idea. As the event carries over to the second day, do you have any ideas for something to go with the navy stripe suit? Possibly very light pink french cuff with a deep purple tie and purple patterned ps?

    Campaign/ Election Style

    The dress code for speaking and campaigning requires a suit and tie, whereas the audience will be in casual to business casual. Im not trying to show superiority, but i think that being well dressed will get people to notice me. Keep in mind that the other candidates will be dressing to the same...

    Campaign/ Election Style

    I understand your point about it not seeming serious enough to warrant dressing well. It is not just a small club, but one that plays a large role on the national scale. The majority of those who run do usually dress "trendy" and very modern, i was hoping for advice on a more conservative and...

    Campaign/ Election Style

    Hi, I'm a 17 year old High school Junior from Louisiana who loves to dress well, but I would like to ask advice on putting together an outfit that would convey power as well as style. In a month I will be running for president of a large youth organization in the state and I'm not sure what i...

    Opinions on Job uniform?

    I agree with the point of the tie, I actually bought it because it came with the tie bar. The chest looks tight in the picture because when I put my hand in the pocket it made it pull. But thank you for the comments!

    Opinions on Job uniform?

    So a few weeks ago I was given a job as a page for one of my state's representatives. I have been shopping around for the appropriate clothes for the job. Today I found a fitted 40r blazer from Brooks Brothers (retail~490 but got it for 168) as well as two Oxford shirts and two pairs of dockers...

    Which looks better?

    The event is at the national WWII museum in New Orleans. I am actually a student who was chosen to compete with against other students with historical documentaries. My audience is mainly just the judges, but I want to look better than the other competitions so I stand out more in the judging

    Which looks best?

    So tomorrow I have an event where I have to present a project at a museum. I went last year, and there were people dressed in everything from suits to polos, jeans, and tennis shoes. I'm determined to look my best to put myself over the top, so I wanted opinions on which of the following looks...

    Midnight Blue dinner jacket remotely acceptable?

    What color pants would you suggest since the jacket is sold as a dinner jacket but not part of a suit? I thought black tux trousers would be the best option
