All-
In slowly backfilling my wardrobe I have relied on my female friends to help with stylings, colors, and patterns. Â That has been incredibly helpful so far.
So far I have added a navy and a charcoal solid suit to my wardrobe and was planning to buy at least 2 more. Â The problem I am having is that I am trying to get an objective eye as to preferred colors and styles.
Is there much of a difference between a solid Navy and something like a Navy pinhead pattern? Â On the surface, I really don't think so but am open to suggestions. Â Functioning on a cost/value basis I'm choosing variety based on color and not style. Â I would prefer not to have 4 different versions of navy in my closet.
Originally I was thinking about adding a lighter grey suit but my panel objected based on how it would not fit me (I'm a very conservative dresser - over 6 feet with a blonde crewcut and wear suits with a 13 inch drop). Â
Everyone has suggested darker colors and I was thinking about black or possibly a dark pinstripe. Â I do not mind the "financial or banking district" look. Â Am I overlooking colors?
If you have a moment to share your experiences I would appreciate it.
Regards,
