Hi guys,

I've bought some really bright green cord trousers - not the darker/racing green type of colour that I normally would prefer but rather one that calls attention. Was sort of an experiment and it worked. Got compliments from all the girls at my office today - casual friday. ;-)

Any ideas on what I could wear with it to underline the look? Worn it so far with a black roll neck to downplay it a little bit.

One thing about the wild, attention-grabbing colors is that you should have the body to pull it off. If you are not then don't excessive attention to your body defect.
