Ich this grabs me but can't quite pull the trigger, need advice to see the light.

What colour trousers with this? Plain shirt, blue or pink, to go with it? One colour tie blue?


I'm all for one for embracing the winter dark cream look for trousers...a nice pair in flannel or moleskin which I wear myself a lot. Great with a pair of suede shoes. However, I really think this would go particularly well with a white shirt or particularly a striped shirt with a white background. As for tie...well depends on your mood :D
