Hello, after a recently promotion, I am in the market for a new suit and went to Nordstrom's today. The gentlemen was very helpful and directed me to the suit pictured below (ignore the shirt and sleeve length). It is a Hugo Boss. HERE is the link to the official Nordstrom website listing:

I'm open and interested in general comments about the brand, Nordstrom, fit, etc., but I am keenly interested in your thoughts on the color. It is a very light colored navy, or perhaps something different altogether. I love blue in general, so I am partial to it, but I do not want to wear something that is a short-lived trend or does not look professional.

Thanks in advance!

Can't tell much about the fit, and lapel width is a bit on the trendier side, but you are definitely safe with regards to color. That's a pretty standard blue.
